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.

A control device for automotive vehicle seat, intended to control a displacement along the longitudinal direction, of at least one part of the automotive vehicle seat, comprises at least one first control surface, substantially flat, wherein the first control surface extends along a transverse direction of the seat and a command direction, wherein the command direction has at least one component along the longitudinal direction, and wherein the first control surface is configured for controlling the displacement of the part of the vehicle seat along the longitudinal direction as a function of a movement along the command direction of a member of an occupant of the seat in contact with a first zone of the first control surface.

An adjustable seat for a vehicle including a first seat section configured to support a lower leg portion of the passenger when the passenger is sitting facing the first direction and a second seat section configured to support an upper leg portion of the passenger when the passenger is sitting facing the first direction and a torso and head portion of the passenger when the passenger is sitting facing the second direction. The adjustable seat also comprising a third seat section configured to support the torso and head portion of the passenger when the passenger is sitting facing the first direction and the upper leg portion of the passenger when the passenger is sitting facing the second direction. The adjustable seat also comprising a fourth seat section configured to support the lower leg portion of the passenger when the passenger is sitting facing the second direction.

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.

An assembly includes a seat bottom including a panel pivotable from a first position to a second position. The assembly includes a track supported by the seat bottom. The assembly includes a spring in the track and urging the panel toward the second position. The assembly includes a pyrotechnic actuator maintaining the spring in compression and actuatable to release the spring.

An adjustable motor vehicle seat includes a main part, an attachment which is movable relative to the main part, and a guide element which includes a receiving portion configured for receiving the main part or the attachment at least in part and having a surface which has at least one portion shaped spherically. The guide element is mounted in a bearing point of at least one of the main part and of the attachment, said bearing point having a cross section which at least in one portion is circular.

A vehicle with a flat seat may include a floor portion having a leg groove recessed downward from a surface of the floor portion; a seatback disposed on the floor portion and reclining by a rotation of the lower end; a seat cushion disposed on the floor portion ahead of the seatback; and a leg cushion disposed in the leg groove of the floor portion and having a rear portion rotatably coupled to the seat cushion.

An adjustable motor vehicle seat includes a main part, an attachment which is movable relative to the main part, and at least two guide elements. Each guide element has a surface which is spherical in at least one portion, and a receiving portion configured for receiving the main part or the attachment at least in part. The guide elements are mounted in a bearing point of at least one of the main part and the attachment and arranged one behind the other with respect to a direction of translation of the attachment relative to the main part.

Provided is a vehicle seat that facilitates setting of a starting load of a movable member. The vehicle seat includes a movable mechanism including: first and second springs coupled to a frame; a movable member displaceable relative to the frame; a first passive member and a second passive member coupled with the respective first and second springs; and a restriction member configured to restrict displacement of the first and second passive members. The movable member displaces the first passive member in a first direction when the movable member is displaced in the first direction, and displaces the second passive member in a second direction when the movable member is displaced in the second direction. The restriction member restricts displacement of the first passive member from a first-passive-member initial position in the second direction and displacement of the second passive member from a second-passive-member initial position in the first direction.

A seating system comprises a plurality of seating assemblies having first and second-row seating assemblies. Each seating assembly includes a cradle pivotally coupled to a seat base and to a seatback. The seat base is movable between first and second positions. The seating assembly includes a base having first and second supports and a swivel plate assembly including first and second frames. The first frame is coupled to the cradle, and the second frame is coupled to the base. The swivel plate assembly includes first and second swivel plates, the first swivel plate coupled to the first frame and the second swivel plate coupled to the second frame. The first swivel plate is configured to allow the cradle to rotate between first and second positions relative to the base. The seating system includes a track assembly. The first and second supports of the base are slidably coupled to the track assembly.
