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 seat opening concealment structure is provided including a cover member that covers part of a vehicle seat, and that includes an outer wall including a curved face portion with a circular arc shaped cross-section profile, the outer wall being formed with an opening having an elongated profile along a peripheral direction of the curved face portion, and the outer wall being formed with a larger radius of curvature at an inner face of the curved face portion than a radius of curvature at an outer face of the curved face portion. The seat opening concealment structure further includes a rotatable body that is supported via a coupling section inserted through the opening so as to be rotatable relative to the cover member, and a concealing sheet that is provided with an attachment hole at which the coupling section is attached, that is longer than a length of the opening, that is supported at two width direction end portions of the concealing sheet so as to be slidable along the inner face of the outer wall, and that covers the opening.

A lower leg support device for a vehicle seat, with a bracket and with a lower leg support displaceably arranged on the bracket, which can be moved between a non-use position and a use position upstream in longitudinal extension, wherein the lower leg support has at least two support parts which are moveable relative to each other to increase or reduce a lower leg support surface of the lower leg support. It is provided that the support parts can be moved transversely to the longitudinal extension to each other in order to increase or reduce the width of the lower leg support surface.

A removable component system may include a vehicle, a plurality of removable components, one or more sensor assemblies, and/or an electronic control unit that may be connected to the one or more sensors. A method of operating the removable component system may include moving, via the electronic control unit, a first removable component of the plurality of removable components relative to a mounting surface of the vehicle, detecting a new removable component or removal of a second removable component of the plurality of removable components while moving the first removable component, and/or modifying the movement of the first removable component according to the detected new removable component and/or the removal of the second removable component.

A moving and locking device for a seat and a personal mobility, which is installed in a bottom portion of a seat for a vehicle or a personal mobility, is provided with a floor panel of a vehicle interior in a structure in which rolling movement of the moving device and a locking coupling of the locking device are possible, is capable of freely moving the seat for a vehicle or the personal mobility to a desired position of the floor panel in the vehicle and firmly fixing the seat for a vehicle or the personal mobility.

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.

A vehicle seat arrangement includes a vehicle seat arranged to be adjusted between a forward facing setup and a rearward facing setup and a seat support structure. The vehicle seat has three seat parts, where a second seat part is pivotably connected to both a first seat part and a third seat part. The second seat part is pivotably connected to the seat support structure. In the forward facing setup, the first and second seat parts make up a seat back and the third seat part make up a seat cushion. In the rearward facing setup, the first seat part make up the seat cushion and the second and third seat parts make up the seat back of the vehicle seat.

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.

Armrest (10) comprising a base (19) and an arm (13) that can be moved by a mount (17) between at least one use position and a non-use position, wherein the arm (13) is movable by the mount (17) axially of a pivot axis (a) between a proximal and a distal position, and is pivotable about the pivot axis (a) between a primary and a secondary position, wherein the armrest (10) has an actuator (30) comprising a motor drive having a drive part (29) that is movable between a first and a second position in order to displace the arm (13) in a first direction (y.sub.1) between the non-use position and the use position, at least in part, wherein the actuator (30) has at least one spring (21) that can be tensioned upon movement of the drive part (29) or an additional drive part (29) of the actuator (30), wherein the arm (13) can be moved axially, in a second direction (y.sub.2) by the spring (21), which second direction is directed opposite the first direction (y.sub.1).

A multipurpose vehicle includes a vehicle body, an accommodating section (5) provided for the vehicle body and including a seat (20) in which an occupant is able to sit, and a changing mechanism (23) configured to change the horizontal orientation of the seat (20), wherein the changing mechanism (23) is configured to change the horizontal orientation of the seat so that the seat faces at least a predetermined first direction d1 or a predetermined second direction d2.
