A slider for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, comprises a first profile section and a second profile section, the first profile section being movable in translation along a longitudinal direction of the seat, relative to the second profile section, the second profile section being intended to be fixed, under a floor of a vehicle passenger compartment; a slider actuator controlling the movement of the first profile section relative to the second profile section, the slider actuator comprising a motor intended to be arranged above the floor of the vehicle passenger compartment, and a reduction mechanism. The reduction mechanism comprises a belt, preferably notched, intended to pass through a slot in the floor of the vehicle passenger compartment.

Proposed are a seat side bolster apparatus and a control method thereof. The seat side bolster apparatus of the disclosure includes a driving unit, which is provided under a foam pad of a seat cushion, is moved upwards and downwards by operation of an actuator, and presses the foam pad upwards when moving upwards, and a covering bracket, which is connected to the driving unit so as to be moved upwards and downwards together with the driving unit and to which an end of a covering enveloping the foam pad of the seat cushion is fixed.

Disclosed is an apparatus for moving a motor-operated seat rail, the apparatus including a lower rail coupled to a vehicle body and located on a lower surface of a floor, an upper rail configured to integrally move with a seat along the lower rail, a lead screw located inside the lower rail, a drive unit located in the upper rail, a gear box located in the lead screw, the gear box receiving driving force from the drive unit to integrally move with the upper rail along the lead screw, and a drive transmission unit located between the drive unit and the gear box.

A seat for a vehicle with a new structure integrates a walk-in mechanism, a mechanism for a relaxation posture change function, and a mechanism for a seatback full-flat folding function into one mechanism. The seat selectively performs one function of a walk-in function, a relaxation posture change function, and a seatback full-flat folding function through the one integrated mechanism.

A vehicle seat, with a seat part which is adjustable in relation to a vehicle floor, on which the vehicle seat is arranged, by external actuation via at least one pivotably mounted rocker component and with the aid of a drive unit operatively connected to the rocker component, and, for access to a vehicle region located behind the vehicle seat is foldable from a use position into an adjustment position, wherein at least on locking unit is provided which, in a locking position, blocks the seat part against folding from a use position into the adjustment position and, in a release position, permits folding of the seat part from the use position into the adjustment position. The operative connection between the drive unit and the rocker component is separable here via the locking unit in the release position thereof.

An autonomous can include one or more configurable passenger seats to accommodate a plurality of different seating configurations. For instance, the one or more passenger seats can include a passenger seat defining a seating orientation. The passenger seat can be configurable in a first configuration in which the seating orientation is directed towards a forward end of the autonomous vehicle and a second configuration in which the seating orientation is directed towards a rear end of the autonomous vehicle. The passenger seat can include a seatback rotatable about a pivot point on a base of the passenger seat to switch between the first configuration and the second configuration. Alternatively, or additionally, the autonomous vehicle can include a door assembly pivotably fixed to a vehicle body of the autonomous vehicle such that a swept path of the door assembly when moving between an open position and a closed position is reduced.

An equipment part with a base and at least one pivot device, which is pivotable about a pivot axis relative to the base, with a drive device with which the pivot device is pivotable between a first position and a second position. The pivot device includes a base part and an extension part, wherein the extension part is guided movably relative to the base part in a translatory manner between a primary position and a secondary position. Associated with the base is a first support surface that engages with a second support surface, which is associated with the extension part, and rolls on this during the pivoting movement between the first position and the second position, wherein the extension part moves between the primary and the secondary position.

In an arrangement which includes: a seat support body slidably supported on a fixed rail fixed to a floor; a power supply device supplying power to an electrical component on a seat side; and a drive device driving the seat support body in a front-and-rear direction and having a motor and a transmission member disposed so as to pass longitudinally through an interior of the fixed rail, the power supply device includes: a housing housing an electric wire for power supply; and a slider linked to the seat support body and slidable within the fixed rail. The electric wire is drawn out from the housing, retained by the slider and slidable within the fixed rail. The slider has an interference-avoiding portion for avoiding interference with the transmission member disposed so as to pass longitudinally through the interior of the fixed rail. Accordingly, the transmission member of the drive device and the slider for retaining the electric wire, which slides within the fixed rail, can be arranged in proximity to each other within the fixed rail while avoiding interference therebetween, thus enabling simplification and a reduction in the size of a rail structure.

The present disclosure relates to an adjustment device for a vehicle seat comprising adjusters adjustable in relation to one another, where on the first adjuster a toothed rack with an interlocking is hinged, and on the second adjuster a pinion is pivoted, the interlocking engaging with the pinion for adjusting the toothed rack and for moving the two adjusters in relation to one another, where, further, a toothed rack blocking element is affixed to the second adjuster, and the toothed rack, when adjusted, runs between the toothed rack blocking element and the pinion.

A vehicle seat comprising a seat part, an adjustable backrest part attached to the seat part, and a floor assembly supporting the seat part and arranged on a vehicle floor. The seat part is connected to the floor assembly in a pivotal manner about a first axis, and the backrest part is connected to the seat part in a pivotal manner about a second axis. The vehicle seat has a first adjusting device powered by an electric motor for pivoting the seat part relative to the floor assembly about the first axis and a second adjusting device powered by an electric motor for pivoting the backrest part relative to the seat part about the second axis.
