A seat assembly includes a five-bar linkage for moving the seat assembly between a plurality of positions in an automotive vehicle. A first link is rotatably coupled to a seat back at a second pivot point disposed coaxial to a first pivot point, and to a seat base defining a fifth link at a third pivot point. A second link extends axially between the first and second pivot points. A third link is defined by a lower seat back portion and a seat cushion and extends between the first pivot point and a fifth pivot point disposed adjacent a front portion of the seat cushion. A fourth link is rotatably coupled to the third link at the fifth pivot point and the seat base at a fourth pivot point. The seat assembly is capable of moving to both a pitched easy entry position and a stow flat to floor position.

A combination structure of a seat frame includes: a first and a second side cushion frames installed on a first and a second sides of a seat, and configured to slide forward and rearward, wherein the first and the second sides of the seat are opposite to each other; a center cushion frame provided between the side cushion frames and having a first side fixed to the first side cushion frame; and a support guide device connected between a second side of the center cushion frame and the second side cushion frame, and configured to guide a sliding movement of each of the second side cushion frame and the center cushion frame while supporting weights of the second side cushion frame and the center cushion frame.

An apparatus of tilting a seat cushion of a rear seat may include a tilting function additionally provided to a seat cushion of a rear seat, so when a seatback reclines, it is possible to tilt up the front end portion of the seat cushion and sufficiently support the thighs of a passenger sitting in the rear seat using the front end portion of the seat cushion tilted upwards.

A vehicle seating assembly includes a seat and a seatback. The seatback includes a frame that has opposing first and second frame members and first and second displaceable panels that are pivotably coupled to the first and second frame members. The first and second displaceable panels are movable between stored positions and deployed positions in response to a force exerted on the seatback.

A combination structure of a seat frame includes: a first and a second side cushion frames installed on a first and a second sides of a seat, and configured to slide forward and rearward, wherein the first and the second sides of the seat are opposite to each other; a center cushion frame provided between the side cushion frames and having a first side fixed to the first side cushion frame; and a support guide device connected between a second side of the center cushion frame and the second side cushion frame, and configured to guide a sliding movement of each of the second side cushion frame and the center cushion frame while supporting weights of the second side cushion frame and the center cushion frame.

Vehicle seat comprising a backrest, a seat part and a seat part upper portion connected to the seat part and displaceable relative to the seat part, the backrest being connected to the seat part in such a manner as to be rotatable about a first axis of rotation, characterised in that the backrest and the seat part upper portion are connected to one another in such a way that, when the backrest is rotated about the first axis of rotation, the seat part upper portion is displaced relative to the seat part.

A railess variable seatback type rear seat includes: a linear movement device configured to convert a rotation of a motor into a linear movement; a sliding movement device configured to convert the linear movement into a sliding movement in which a seat cushion is pushed forward or backward; and a reclining angle change device configured to convert the sliding movement into a reclining movement, and to fold a seatback, which is connected to the seat cushion, forward or to recline the seatback backward.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat comprising a backrest element having a first contact surface which is arranged within a first imaginary plane, and a seat element having a second contact surface which is arranged within a second imaginary plane which is defined by a longitudinal axis and a width axis of the vehicle seat, wherein the first imaginary plane and the second imaginary plane intersect in an intersecting axis, wherein the backrest element is pivotable relative to the seat element about a rotational axis, wherein an inclination angle of the backrest element extends between the first imaginary plane and a central axis which runs perpendicularly to the second imaginary plane, wherein, in a first position of the backrest element, a distance along the longitudinal axis between the rotational axis and the intersecting axis is at least 60 mm, wherein, in the first position of the backrest element, the inclination angle is substantially 10°.

An apparatus of tilting a seat cushion of a rear seat may include a tilting function additionally provided to a seat cushion of a rear seat, so when a seatback reclines, it is possible to tilt up the front end portion of the seat cushion and sufficiently support the thighs of a passenger sitting in the rear seat using the front end portion of the seat cushion tilted upwards.

An apparatus for adjusting a seat of a vehicle includes a seat back frame, a cushion frame that is moved forward and backward by a motor driving unit, a cushion hinge part connecting the seat back frame and the cushion frame and rotating according to the movement of the cushion frame to adjust the angle of the seat back frame, and a seat back hinge part connecting the seat back frame and the vehicle body and rotating according to the movement of the seat back frame.
