The invention relates to a vehicle seat having a backrest which comprises a backrest part and a backrest base element, the backrest part comprising a middle backrest element which is arranged pivotably on the backrest base element, wherein the backrest part comprises two lower backrest side elements and two upper backrest side elements, which are each mechanically coupled to the middle backrest element, wherein the two lower backrest side elements are arranged pivotably on the backrest base element, wherein at least one joint device is provided in each case between a lower backrest side element and an upper backrest side element, wherein a lower backrest side element and an upper backrest side element are each arranged at an angle α.sub.L, α.sub.R to one another, wherein pivoting of the middle backrest element causes a change in the angle α.sub.L, α.sub.R.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat comprising a seat part and a backrest, wherein the backrest comprises at least one left-hand backrest longitudinal support at least one middle backrest longitudinal support and at least one right-hand backrest longitudinal support extending in the vertical direction of the backrest. The backrest longitudinal supports are each connected to the seat part and/or a seat-part frame in a lower region and comprise at least one cushion element. The backrest longitudinal supports are hingedly connected to the seat part and/or the seat-part frame and are interconnected by means of an elongate backrest cross strut, wherein it is possible to vary a distance between at least two backrest longitudinal supports by displacing the at least one backrest cross strut along the vertical direction of the backrest in the upper region of the backrest.

A seat includes a pivotally movable bottom, a pivotally movable backrest independent from the bottom, a first supporter suspending and supporting a front side of the bottom, and a second supporter suspending a rear side of the bottom from a side behind the backrest section, and pivotally movably supporting the bottom together with the first supporter. According to the seat, the front side and the rear side of the bottom are suspended and supported. Thus, compared to a seat in which a front side of a bottom is supported in a cantilever manner, the seat is capable of ensuring bearing capacity for a seating load. The rear side of the bottom is suspended and supported from a side behind the backrest section. Accordingly, a support structure around the bottom including the front side of the bottom can be downsized.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat comprising a seat part and a backrest, the backrest comprising at least one left-hand backrest longitudinal support extending in the vertical direction of the backrest and at least one right-hand backrest longitudinal support extending in the vertical direction of the backrest, the backrest longitudinal supports being attached to the seat part and/or a seat-part frame in a lower end region and comprising at least one cushion element, wherein the length of a distance between the backrest longitudinal supports can be adjusted by means of at least one elongate backrest cross strut arranged in the upper region of the backrest.

The present invention relates to an inbuilt seat leg support and a seat. The seat leg support is mounted in a seat. The seat includes a base frame and a cushion frame located above the base frame. A receiving space is formed between the base frame and the cushion frame. The seat leg support includes a leg support frame configured to be received in the receiving space. The leg support frame is movable and adjustable relative to the cushion frame. Movement and adjustment of the leg support frame cause the leg support frame to extend out of the receiving space to be in an extended state or to retract into the receiving space to be in a received state. According to the present invention, a receiving space for a leg support frame is reserved between a base frame and a cushion frame, and the leg support frame is disposed to be movable so that the leg support frame can be received in the receiving space when not in use. Receiving a leg support in a seat causes the present invention to be space-saving.

A support apparatus includes a base member, an intermediate member, an upper member, a pair of first rails provided at the base member, the pair of first rails extending in a first direction, and a pair of second rails provided at the upper member, the pair of second rails extending in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. The intermediate member includes a pair of first rollers engaging with the first rails and a pair of second rollers engaging with the second rails. The intermediate member constitutes a first pendulum mechanism that allows an oscillation of the upper member in the first direction and a second pendulum mechanism that allows an oscillation of the upper member in the second direction. The intermediate member includes a first drive portion that drives the first rollers to rotate and a second drive portion that drives the second rollers to rotate.

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

The invention relates to a vehicle seat having a backrest which comprises a backrest part and a backrest base element, the backrest part comprising a middle backrest element which is arranged pivotably on the backrest base element, wherein the backrest part comprises two lower backrest side elements and two upper backrest side elements, which are each mechanically coupled to the middle backrest element, wherein the two lower backrest side elements are arranged pivotably on the backrest base element, wherein at least one joint device is provided in each case between a lower backrest side element and an upper backrest side element, wherein a lower backrest side element and an upper backrest side element are each arranged at an angle α.sub.L, α.sub.R to one another, wherein pivoting of the middle backrest element causes a change in the angle α.sub.L, α.sub.R, wherein the joint device comprises at least one first elastic element.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat having a backrest which comprises a backrest part and a backrest base element, the backrest part comprising a middle backrest element which is arranged pivotably on the backrest base element, wherein the backrest part comprises two lower backrest side elements and two upper backrest side elements, which are each mechanically coupled to the middle backrest element, wherein the two lower backrest side elements are arranged pivotably on the backrest base element, wherein at least one joint device is provided in each case between a lower backrest side element and an upper backrest side element, wherein a lower backrest side element and an upper backrest side element are each arranged at an angle α.sub.L, α.sub.R to one another, wherein pivoting of the middle backrest element causes a change in the angle α.sub.L, α.sub.R.

A seating system for at least one occupant in a vehicle interior is disclosed. The seating system may provide a seat assembly with a base assembly configured to be mounted in the vehicle interior and a seat structure configured to be coupled to the base assembly and providing a seat configured for movement relative to the base assembly. Movement of the seat relative to the base assembly may be made by at least two of recline movement or swivel movement or tilt movement. Recline movement may be generally translating movement of the seat structure. Swivel movement may be rotational movement of the seat structure. Tilt movement may be generally translating movement of the seat structure transverse to recline movement. The base assembly may be a mechanism configured to facilitate movement of the seat structure relative to the base assembly.
