A seat adjuster, comprising an adjustable vehicle seat, that may be adjusted by an external force between an initial position and a target position in an interior of a vehicle, the adjustment of the vehicle seat from the initial position into the target position requiring at least pivoting of the vehicle seat about a pivot axis extending from a floor to a ceiling of the vehicle, and an electronic control device for controlling an adjustment drive to adjust the vehicle seat from the initial position into the target position. A characteristic-map memory coupled to the electronic control device is provided, in which characteristic-map memory characteristic-map data for adjustment movements to be carried out by the vehicle seat are stored. The electronic control device controls the adjustment drive by means of the characteristic-map data to adjust the vehicle seat from a current initial position into a certain target position.

The present disclosure relates to an inductive power coupler adapted to supply at least one electrical consumer attached to a vehicle seat in a vehicle. The inductive power coupler may have a transmitter with at least one transmitter coil that is electrically connected with a power source via a power line attached to a floor of the vehicle. The inductive power coupler may also have a receiver with at least one receiver coil, that is electrically connected with the at least one electrical consumer. The receiver is attached to the seat and at least one transmitter coil is inductively coupled to at least one receiver coil.

The object of the invention is to provide a vehicle seat which can improve degree of freedom in the design of the vehicle seat. A vehicle seat with a seat cushion and a seat back includes: right and left side frames 20 constituting right and left frames of the seat back; a pressure-receiving member 40 disposed between the right and left side frames 20 and configured to receive a load from an occupant; and a driving mechanism 50 disposed at each of right and left sides of the pressure-receiving member 40 and configured to cause a right end portion or a left end portion of the pressure-receiving member 40 to move from an initial position to an advanced position that is located frontward of the initial position or to move from the advanced position to the initial position, wherein the driving mechanism 50 includes a linkage (drive link member 100 and contact link member 200) configured to be connected to the pressure-receiving member 40 and a driving source 52 configured to actuate the linkage, and wherein the linkage is configured to operate when a load equal to or greater than a predetermined amount is input from the occupant to the pressure-receiving member 40 to cause the pressure-receiving member 40 to move to a backward position that is located rearward of the initial position.

A deployable working surface is provided for use in a reconfigurable passenger cabin of a personal automotive vehicle. The vehicle includes a first seat that can rotate to an inwardly-rotated position. The working surface is provided by a panel that is mounted on a second seat for movement between a stowed position and a working position. This movement includes vertical movement and rotational movement about a vertical axis. When the panel is in the working position, the working surface extends in a radial direction that is perpendicular to the direction the first seat is facing when in the rotated position and is positioned higher that an occupant seating surface of the first seat and in front of a backrest of the first seat.

A device for tilting and swiveling a seat of a vehicle is provided. The device performs a tilting operation for relaxation by cooperation of a seat back and a seat cushion as well as a swiveling operation for rotating the seat in an indoor direction for conversion between passengers or rotating the seat in an outdoor direction for getting on and off vehicle assistance.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat having a seat part and a backrest part comprising a first backrest portion and a second backrest portion arranged above it in the seat height direction, wherein the second backrest portion is displaceable relative to the first backrest portion by means of a displacement movement directed at least in the seat width direction, wherein in a first displaced position of the second backrest portion a mechanical interaction is formed between the first backrest portion and the second backrest portion, which secures the first displaced position of the second backrest portion and which can be released by means of a force exerted on the second backrest portion and acting in the direction of the displacement movement.

Disclosed is a system and method for controlling a moving console. When a seat of a vehicle is moved forwards or rearwards, a console is automatically moved to a usable position adjacent to the seat, whereby it is possible for a passenger on the seat to conveniently use the console. In addition, when the seat is swiveled, the console is automatically moved to a position at which interference between the console and the seat is avoidable, whereby the seat is swiveled smoothly.

A seat comprising a seatback, a cushion, a screen, and a track system including a rail and an attachment mechanism, wherein the cushion is secured to the seatback via the track system and the cushion is configured to move along the seatback in a vertical direction.

A vehicle and a method of controlling the vehicle include a display unit, an adjuster configured to move the display unit within a preset angle range, and a controller configured to move the display unit to correspond to a change in a proceeding direction of the vehicle during autonomous driving of the vehicle to a preset destination. When an autonomous vehicle changes a vehicle proceeding direction during driving, a display unit or a seat inside the vehicle is turned and moved in the same direction as the changed vehicle proceeding direction to lower a physical angular speed that affects human carsickness, thereby reducing carsickness.

An underbody structure for supporting an adjustable seating assembly for a motor vehicle comprises a rotatable turntable operably coupled to an underbody of the motor vehicle and a brace operably coupled with the rotatable turntable and the underbody of the motor vehicle and extending substantially across the rotatable turntable, wherein the adjustable seating assembly is operably coupled to the brace and the underbody of the motor vehicle.
