Disclosed embodiments include systems, devices, and methods for automotive seats for a vehicle, and seating arrangements within a vehicle. Disclosed embodiments include systems, devices, and methods for moving a vehicle seat between a first driving position and a second access position and moving the vehicle seat between the second access position and the first driving position. The driving position may be in the center of the vehicle and the access positions may be on either side of a vehicle. Disclosed embodiments include systems, devices, and methods for modular automotive seat assemblies comprising interchangeable portions in order to replace worn-out or damaged parts, or to change seat styles and configurations. Disclosed embodiments include systems, devices, and methods for automotive seating arrangements that allow for better line-of-sight for passengers.

Methods and systems are provided for flipping a seat of a vehicle. The systems include a base member for the seat, a drive mechanism partially used for driving the base member to rotate, a first support member and a second support member of the seat, a backrest member, a lock mechanism for locking and unlocking the backrest member with the second support member, a rotation mechanism, and a control module for sending a command to flip the seat.

An electronic control unit configured to control at least one motor used to reposition a seat assembly within an automotive vehicle. The electronic control unit comprises a mode manager configured to reposition the seat assembly from a first position to a second position and a performance evaluation module configured to monitor the repositioning of the seat assembly. The performance evaluation module detects and compensates for abrupt stops in the at least one motor.

A vehicle having a seat with a seat base and seat back that folds from an upright seating position to a folded position, a user input to enter an input to move the seat back to the folded position, and at least one door moveable between open and closed positions. A door sensor detects the at least one door in the open or closed positions and a controller is configured to control movement of the seat back from the seating position to the folded position. The controller permits activation of the seat back to move to the folded position when the input is received, the at least one door is in the open position and the vehicle is determined not to be moving, and prevents movement of the seat back to the folded position when the vehicle is moving or the at least one door is in the closed position.

A driver's cab for an agricultural work vehicle. The driver's cab has a driver's seat on which armrests are arranged on both sides, a windshield delimiting the front of the driver's cab and extending substantially between the cab floor and cab roof of the driver's cab, and a steering unit replacement system. The steering unit replacement system comprises: steering elements at least integrated into the armrests positioned on both sides of the driver's seat, at least one footrest associated with the driver's seat at the front in an area close to the floor, at least one grab handle system arranged at the front, and at least one storage device accessible from the driver's seat by a driver in a sitting position.

Methods, systems, and devices for an automated ingress and egress system. The system may include a rear back door of a vehicle. The system may further include a seat and a frame coupled to the seat and a floor of the vehicle. The frame may move the seat from inside a cabin of the vehicle to outside the cabin through the rear back door. The system may further include an electronic control unit (ECU) electrically connected to the rear back door and the frame. The ECU may control the rear back door to open the rear back door, control the frame to move the seat from inside the cabin to outside the cabin through the rear back door, control the frame to move the seat from outside the cabin to inside the cabin through the rear back door, and control the rear back door to close the rear back door.

A control method for an automotive seat is applied to a child safety seat. The method includes: acquiring a distance between an automotive door and the seat after the automotive door is opened; determining that the distance is greater than or equal to a preset threshold; and controlling the seat to rotate to a preset position. The control method acquires the distance between the automotive door and the seat to determine whether the automotive door is open, and compares the acquired distance with the preset threshold to determine whether the automotive door is open to a certain angle. In this way, the control method determines whether a user intends to use the child seat. When the acquired distance between the automotive door and the seat is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the control method controls the seat to rotate automatically to an execution position.
