A headrest includes a frame made of metal, the frame includes a base plate supported by a headrest fixing device, and a cover plate disposed on an occupant head side of the base plate. The cover plate includes a cover panel portion, and a cover frame portion extending from an outer circumferential edge of the cover panel portion toward the base plate. The base plate includes a base panel portion, and a base frame portion extending from an outer circumferential edge of the base panel portion toward the cover plate, and fitted into the cover frame portion. A first part of the cover frame portion is joined to the base frame portion, and a remaining second part of the cover frame portion is enjoined to the base frame portion.

Provided is an integral single-frame two-way headrest with a U-shaped single rod, comprising a U-shaped rod, an integral frame and a cover, the integral frame being externally covered with the cove, and the integral frame is hollow inside. An opening is arranged at a lower end of the integral frame, and an upper portion of the U-shaped rod is inserted into the inner frame from the opening, a plurality of positioning grooves is arranged on the right side of two downwardly extending ends of the U-shaped rod. A rod guide sleeve sleeved on both ends of the U-shaped rod is mounted at both ends of the opening, and the outer side of the integral frame is mounted with an unlocking steel wire corresponding to the positioning groove at both ends of the U-shaped rod, an unlocking lever connected with the unlocking steel wire and laterally movable is mounted in a hollow portion of the integral frame. The present invention has the characteristics of simple structure, convenient assembly and greatly reduced production cost.

A headrest may be fixed relative to a seat or a bank of seats in a vehicle and can provide multiple stages of deformation in response to a collision event. The headrest can include a resilient member that deforms in response to a first force caused by the collision event. The headrest can also include a frame that deforms in a first manner in response to a second force greater than the first force and in a second manner in response to a third force greater than the second force. Such a headrest can provide improved impact mitigation for occupants, regardless of height and/or weight such that occupants ranging from the 5.sup.th to 95.sup.th percentile in height and/or weight are afforded similar impact mitigation despite a fixed headrest structure. In some examples, multiple such headrests may be conjoined.

An adjustment mechanism for a seat comprises at least one screw shaft (111, 112) and a motor for driving the at least one screw shaft (111, 112). Further, the adjustment mechanism comprises at least one nut element (121, 122) engaged with the at least one screw shaft (121, 122) in such a way that a rotation of the at least one screw shaft (111, 112) caused by the motor translates into a linear motion of the at least one nut element (121, 122). In a first range of the linear motion of the at least one nut element (121, 122) the linear motion translates into adjustment of the seat according to a first degree of freedom, and in a second range of the linear motion of the at least one nut element (121, 122) the linear motion translates into adjustment of the seat according to a second degree of freedom.

A headrest is provided including an upper pillow section that configures a front side of an upper portion of the headrest, and a lower pillow section that configures a front side of a lower portion of the headrest. A front-rear position of the lower pillow section with respect to the upper pillow section is adjustable by swinging the lower pillow section about a shaft extending along a seat width direction at an upper edge side of the lower pillow section, and a protrusion amount by which respective seat width direction side portions of the lower pillow section protrude toward a seat front side being adjustable with respect to a seat width direction intermediate portion of the lower pillow section by swinging the two seat width direction side portions about a shaft extending in a seat vertical direction.

A vehicle seat includes a headrest body provided at an upper portion of a seat back rotatably supported by a seat cushion on which an occupant is seated. The headrest body is covered with a skin material. The headrest body includes a driving body that is configured to form a swelling portion that is a portion of the skin material in a seat-height direction swelling toward a front side of the seat at a surface of a seat front side of the skin material and change a formation position of the swelling portion in the seat-height direction by being operated inside the headrest body.

A vehicle seat includes: a seat cushion; a seatback that is rotatably connected to a seat rear side of the seat cushion; a headrest that is provided at a seat upper side end portion of the seatback, and that is configured to support a head portion of a vehicle occupant; and a hardness changing section that changes a hardness of a seat front side of the headrest by compressing a pad at an interior of the headrest, in a case in which an angle of inclination of the seatback with respect to the seat cushion is smaller than a predetermined angle, and canceling a compressed state of the pad, in a case in which the angle of inclination is larger than the predetermined angle.

An occupant support includes a seat bottom and a seat back. The seat bottom is coupled to a floor of a vehicle. The seat back is coupled to the seat bottom to move relative to the seat bottom. The seat back includes a back rest and a headrest coupled to the backrest.

A vehicle seat includes a headrest, a seat back to which the headrest is attached, and a seat cushion connected to the seat back. The headrest includes pillar frames attached to the seat back, a core member that includes a pouring passage penetrating from one end to the other end, a cover that covers the core member and a part of the pillar frames, and a cushion member that is formed in a gap between the outer surface of the core member and the inner surface of the cover and inside the pouring passage. The pouring passage extends in a first direction from the one end of the core member to reach a predetermined position, extends in a second direction from the predetermined position to reach the other end, and includes a bent part at the predetermined position.

A head restraint assembly includes a headrest bun including an interior portion and a rear outer surface. A frame member is disposed within the interior portion of the headrest bun. A support block is disposed adjacent to the frame member and includes first and second access slots disposed through a body portion thereof. A bracket includes a body portion operably coupled between the support block and the frame member. The bracket includes first and second fins rearwardly extending from the body portion of the bracket through the first and second access slots of the support block and through the rear outer surface of the headrest bun. The distal ends of the first and second fins are spaced-apart from one another and positioned outside of the interior portion of the headrest bun in assembly, and are configured to contact a glass pane of a vehicle during a deceleration event.
