A portable neck support which includes height and side adjustments which is removably attached to a seat or other support apparatus.

Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat is provided. The vehicle seat comprises construction elements that are movable relative to one another and at least one force transmission element which transmits activation forces and/or stress forces that result from the use of the vehicle seat from one construction element to the other. The force transmission element by way of at least one joint is connected to both construction elements, and conjointly with the at least one joint is an integral component part of at least one of the two construction elements.

Adjusting device for a seat element of a vehicle seat

It is provided an adjusting device for a seat element of a vehicle seat, the strength structure of said seat element being connected to a guide device which substantially oriented in a first spatial direction and on which a support and a slide are arranged in a longitudinally adjustable manner relative to each other by means of a first drive device. A support lever which changes the contour of the seat element and which is hinged to the support and a toggle lever which is hinged to the slide and to the support lever via a connection joint are pivotable about axes which are oriented in a second spatial direction running perpendicularly to the first spatial direction and pivot on a plane defined by the first spatial direction and a third spatial direction running perpendicularly to the first and second spatial direction when the first drive device is actuated.

Head restraint follower

Reclining seat mounted on a foundation through first and second slides. The seat cushion is mounted on the first slide, and the seat back is mounted on the second slide. The slides, the seat cushion and the seat back are arranged to move together as one unit to have the seat recline. A head restraint is mounted at a top side of the seat back to follow and move with the back during movement of the back. The second slide has a non-linear curved shape to rotate the head restraint when the seat back moves. The curved shape rotates the headrest in a backward and downward direction when the seat back moves downward and the seat cushion moves forward, and vice versa. From the different seat positions, the head restraint follows the motion of the occupant as they move to the different seat positions.

Friction module, friction hinge, and adjustable headrest including the friction module and/or friction hinge
10960801 · 2021-03-30 · ·

Adjustable headrest including a guide configured to be coupled to a seat; a head support coupled to the guide and configured to be movable along an adjustment path relative to the seat; and a slider having a surface defining a recess receiving the guide. A retainer is positioned to urge a surface of the slider against a surface of the guide, thereby maintaining friction between the surface of the slider and the surface of the guide. Additionally, the adjustable headrest includes a bracket that is fixable relative to the head support or fixed relative to the seat. The bracket has a mounting section positioned for fixation relative to the head support or for fixation to the seat and a guide receiving portion receiving the guide. The slider and the bracket are separate components and are formed from the same material or different materials.
