Disclosed is a low-posture zero-gravity seat frame capable of being adjusted in multiple directions. A first left front connecting rod has a lower end hinged to a left slide rail front bracket and an upper end hinged to one end of a second left front connecting rod, and the other end of the second left front connecting rod is hinged to a front horizontal tube. A second toothed plate driving device is able to adjust the height of a seat framework through the movement of a rear horizontal tube. A seatbelt retractor is disposed below the seat framework. The seat frame can realize zero-gravity adjustment, occupies a small space, and can fulfill low-posture seat arrangement.

The vehicle with right and left front seats, a cargo bed located behind the right and left front seats, a guide rail located on the cargo bed, and a rear seat with a seat frame connected to the guide rail and slidable in the front-rear direction along the guide rail. This structure enables the cargo bed to have a sufficient capacity while preventing the vehicle body from increasing in size, and secures freedom in the shape of the rear seat.

A beverage service system, assembly, and method enable a consumer to portably consume a beverage output from a single-service beverage media container. The beverage service system incorporates a lid formation and a liquid container. The lid formation is configured to receive and retain a single-service beverage media container, and provides a primary beverage outlet, a container-receiving aperture, and a container retention mechanism. The single-service beverage media container is received in the container-receiving aperture and retained by the container retention mechanism. The lid formation is attached to the primary liquid container thereby forming a lid-container combination. A liquid such as hot water may be directed through the single-service beverage media container as received and retained by the lid formation for outputting beverage therefrom into the liquid container. The beverage, as outlet from the lid formation and collected in the liquid container, may then be consumed via the primary beverage outlet.

A seat suitable for sports type automobiles with a low hip point. An energy absorbing structure part provided in a cushion frame is constituted of a substantially square frame body including a front beam and a rear beam, and stringers bridged across them and provided separately from side frames. It is structured such that belt anchor attaching members are each provided between a coupling position to a vicinity of a rear portion of upper rails of sliders and a coupling position of the rear beam in the stringers. When an impact force of a predetermined value or higher is applied, the stringers deform to absorb the impact force and trusses are formed after the deformation, thereby enabling to sustain a further impact force which continues to be applied.

A vehicle seat having at least one buckle for receiving a safety belt on a first lateral side of the seat and an attachment of the end of a pelvic strap of the safety belt on a second lateral side of the seat. The seat includes at least one safety device, each safety device having a first cable connecting the buckle or the attachment of the end of the pelvic strap to a first anchor point, and at least one second cable connecting the buckle or the attachment of the end of the pelvic strap to a second anchor point traction on the second cable resulting in a general movement of the buckle or attachment of the pelvic strap end eliminating the risk of submarining.

A back frame structure of a vehicle seat, the back frame structure including: a pair of side frames extending in an upper and lower direction; and an upper frame that connects upper end sides of the side frames in a bridging manner, the upper frame including: a main body part having a substantially inverted U-shaped cross-section opened downward; and a cover member attached to the main body part so as to close at least a part of an opening end side in the cross-section of the main body part.

A seat includes a seat bottom, a seat back, a seat mounting structure configured to support the seat bottom and the seat back, the seat mounting structure configured to slidably couple to the rail assembly, and an occupant restraint system including a seat belt coupled to a retractor assembly. The retractor assembly is configured to slidably couple to the rail assembly such that the retractor assembly moves along the rail assembly as the seat mounting structure is moved along the rail assembly, the occupant restraint system configured to transfer load to the rail assembly disposed in the vehicle floor.

A bus seat for use in a bus comprises a frame and a seat back secured to a portion of the frame. The bus seat further comprises a seat cushion secured to another portion of the frame. The bus seat also comprises a removable two piece cover arranged over the seat back, wherein the cover pieces are secured to one another with a zipper. The zippered two piece seat back cover allows for easy installation, removal or replacement of any damaged or worn portions of the seat back trim cover.

Described are devices and methods for arresting forward motion of a passenger seat back in a controlled manner using an energy absorbing element connected between structural elements of a pivotally-attached passenger seat back. The energy absorbing element includes an interference element and an energy absorbing element that are operably connected with each other so that, in an upright configuration, the combination of the energy absorbing element and the interference element resists movement of the passenger seat back with respect to the first structural element of the passenger seat back, and in transition to a folded-forward configuration, the interference element deforms the energy absorbing element to slow forward movement of the passenger seat back.

A utility vehicle is provided with a seat frame disposed below a seat for a crew and supporting the seat, the utility vehicle includes:

a seatbelt apparatus configured to hold the crew sitting on the seat; in which

the seat frame includes a projection projecting outward in a vehicle width direction from the seat and covering a top of a fuel tank,

the seatbelt apparatus includes a retractor supporting an end of webbing so as to freely wind the webbing, and the retractor is attached to the projection.
