Interior system of a vehicle

A vehicle interior system for a vehicle includes a steering wheel support assembly operable between retracted and extended positions and having a steering wheel coupled thereto, a foot pedal disposed within a foot well of the vehicle and operable between a foot pedal use position and a foot pedal stowed position, and a foot rest disposed within the foot well and operable between a foot rest use position and a foot rest stowed position. The movement of the steering wheel support assembly toward the retracted position causes the foot pedal to move toward the foot pedal stowed position and the foot rest to move toward the foot rest use position.

POLYHEDRAL BODY OF AN ARTICULATION ASSEMBLY FOR A VEHICLE SEAT

An articulation assembly for a vehicle seat includes a planar engagement surface. An inflatable member is operably coupled to the planar engagement surface. The inflatable member includes a plurality of polyhedral bodies that are configured to be formed via additive manufacturing. Each of the polyhedral bodies has a foldable portion that defines crease lines. A plurality of elastomeric members are disposed on each crease line. A planar base includes a port fluidly coupled to the polyhedral bodies. A manifold is fluidly coupled to the port of the planar base and is configured to translate fluid through the port to the polyhedral bodies.

ARMREST

Disclosed is an armrest for a seat, which is accommodated at a lateral side of a seat cushion at a standby position and adjusted in height with respect to the seat cushion at an operation position. The armrest includes: a base disposed adjacent to the seat cushion; a first module rotatably connected to the base and configured to rotate about a first rotation axis so that a height of the first module with respect to the seat cushion is adjusted; and a second module rotatably connected to the first module and configured to rotate about a second rotation axis traversing the first rotation axis so that the second module is disposed horizontally or vertically with respect to the seat cushion.

Lounge chair for aircraft

An aircraft cabin comprising a credenza and a lounge chair disposed above the credenza is disclosed. The lounge chair is adjustable between a first configuration defining a first seating arrangement and a second configuration defining a second seating arrangement. Also disclosed is a mechanism to facilitate the adjustment of the lounge chair.

Seat accessory to enable a sleep and rest surface

A seat accessory for an automobile vehicle includes a seat accessory configuration oriented to be releasably deposited onto a seat base and a seat back of an automobile vehicle seat when the seat back is positioned in a seat back fully reclined and horizontal position. The seat accessory includes a seat base contact portion defining a triangular-shape positioned onto the seat base. A seat back contact portion defining a triangular-shape is positioned onto the seat back. A connecting member directly connects the seat base contact portion to the seat back contact portion.

VEHICLE REAR-SEAT POSITION ADJUSTMENT APPARATUS

Disclosed is a vehicle rear-seat position adjustment apparatus including a pair of support frames mounted on a floor panel in such a manner as to be spaced apart; a leg frame having a structure where a slot of a predetermined length is formed and fixedly mounted on the support frame; a tilting link of which a front end portion is connected to a slot in the leg frame in a manner that is movable backward and forward; a seat cushion frame of which a front end portion is connected to the leg frame and of which a rear end portion is connected to a rear end portion of the tilting link; a recliner mounted on a side frame connected to a rear end portion of the support frame; and a drive device connected to the front end portion of the tilting link and configured to move the tilting link backward and forward.

Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat is provided including a base section fixed to a floor of a vehicle, a pair of seat sections that are disposed opposing each other as viewed along a seat width direction, that are each supported by the base section so as to be capable of tilting between a horizontal position and an upright position, and that each include plural cushion sections disposed in series and configured to support the body of an occupant, and a hinge mechanism that attaches the pair of seat sections to the base section such that the seat sections are capable of tilting, and that couples the plural cushion sections together such that the cushion sections are capable of swinging about an axis running along the seat width direction.

Activity profile application and portability to facilitate vehicle cabin configuration

Example methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture (e.g., physical storage media) to facilitate application and portability of activity profiles and vehicle cabin configuration are disclosed. An example method includes receiving an activity profile and a user setting associated with a user. The activity profile is one of multiple predetermined activity profiles selectable by or associated with the user. The method includes applying the activity profile and the user setting to the vehicle to adjust at least one characteristic of the vehicle's cabin to facilitate a performance of an activity during navigation of the vehicle and/or while the vehicle is stationary. The activity profile and the user setting may be received during, prior to, or after receipt of data indicative of the user's identity. Applying of at least the activity profile to the vehicle may be performed upon successful authentication of the user.
