Provided is a vehicle seat having a seat back that can be folded forward, in which the buckle is prevented from interfering with the seat hack when the seat back is folded forward. A seat cushion frame (F1) rotatably attached to the seat back frame (F2) includes a pair of side frames (11) extending in a fore and aft direction, a front frame (12) extending between front parts of the side frames, and a rear frame (13) extending between rear parts of the side frames and provided with a curved portion (13A) protruding forward in a middle part thereof. A buckle support arm is located behind the curved portion, the curved portion being dimensioned so as not to interfere with the buckle when the buckle support arm is in a stowed position.

A seat cushion part includes a base fabric extending between and looped around a front edge frame and a rear edge frame, and having an upper layer part and a lower layer part which are provided apart from each other in an up-down direction. Wire members of metal are provided respectively on side edge portions of the base fabric, and coil springs are spring members each extending between an end portion of the wire member and the front edge frame or the rear edge frame. A load further applied due to vibration, impact, and so on causes the upper layer part to come into contact with the lower layer part to also displace the lower layer part in the up-down direction. Consequently, the coil springs connected through the wire members extend/contract, and their elastic force acts.

A storage accessory for placement under a vehicle seat. The storage accessory comprises a first storage compartment, a second storage compartment, and a tray assembly for supporting the first and second storage compartments. At least one of the first and second storage compartments is removable from the tray assembly to serve as a stand-alone storage box when removed from the vehicle. The at least one removable storage compartment includes a lock handle that permits the at least one removable storage compartment to be releasably and securely attached to the tray assembly.

A hybrid support structure for a backrest part of a vehicle seat or a back bench seat, which is formed from a metal structure and a plastic structure, the metal structure including at least one connecting profile disposed between two side rail profiles of the hybrid support structure. It is provided that the connecting profile, together with a central rib of a web structure designed as a plastic structure follows a load path-optimized main load line, which runs between two connecting points of the connecting profile on the side rail profiles, taking into account a force acting upon the hybrid support structure in at least one assumed load case.

The present invention relates to all terrain vehicles having at least a pair of laterally spaced apart seating surfaces.

A seat arrangement for a vehicle includes first and second mounting brackets configured for attachment to a vehicle body. A seat back frame is attached to the first mounting bracket and is pivotable relative to the first mounting bracket around a first pivot axis. A seat cushion frame is pivotably attached to the second mounting bracket, and attached to the seat back frame such that the seat cushion frame and the seat back frame are pivotable relative to each other around a second pivot axis positioned above the first pivot axis when the seat back frame is in a use position.

A lock for a pivoting member in a vehicle comprising: a button having a depressed position and an undepressed position; a cam abutting the button having a rotated position and an un-rotated position; and a rod operably connected to the cam having an extended position and a retracted position; wherein, when the button is in the depressed position, the cam is in the rotated position, and the rod is in the retracted position. The pivoting member can be an armrest or a seatback, among other things. The rod includes a first grooved section. The cam includes a first finger adjacent to the first grooved section. As the cam transitions from the un-rotated position to the rotated position, the first finger of the cam interacts with the first grooved section of the rod to cause the rod to transition from the extended position to the retracted position.

A vehicle seat comprising a guiding device comprising a first articulation portion and a second articulation portion, the first articulation portion has a first articulation surface, the second articulation portion has a second articulation surface, a first stop element and a second stop element, a first backrest, a second backrest comprising a first flange and a second flange, the first flange has a first bore cooperating with the first articulation surface, the second flange has a second bore cooperating with the second articulation surface, the second bore has a circular portion and a notch, the notch of the second bore is configured to allow the passage of the second stop element through the notch.

A seating arrangement for a vehicle is shown to include a plurality of seats, including at least two front seats, at least two rear seats, and a rear jump seat positioned intermediate the two rear seats. The jump seat comprises a seat back which is positioned rearwardly of the rear seats, and the rear seats are movable laterally between a first position where the rear seats are proximate to each other and generally covering the seat back of the jump seat, and a second position where the rear seats are spaced apart from each other and the seat back of the jump seat is exposed. The arrangement may also include rear seats which are rotatable relative to the seat backs to provide a storage surface.

A child safety seat includes a backrest portion, a headrest slidably connected with the backrest portion, a side support connected with the backrest portion and protruding forward from the backrest portion one side thereof, the side support being configured to be slidable transversally relative to the backrest portion, and a linking mechanism adapted to movably link the side support to the headrest so that the headrest and the side support are movable concurrently relative to the backrest portion for adjustment. The linking mechanism includes a rod portion slidably carried with one of the headrest and the side support, and a ramped slot provided on the other one of the headrest and the side support, the rod portion being slidably connected with the ramped slot and movable relative to the one of the headrest and the side support.
