A seat assembly for a rear vehicle cabin is provided including a seat base configured to receive and support a car seat in a rear-facing configuration; a backrest; and a movable headrest component. The movable headrest component includes first and second opposing major surfaces. At least a portion of the second major surface is configured to provide a reflective surface, for example, using a mirror. A movable cover may be provided, configured to selectively conceal the reflective surface. The movable headrest component has a first orientation with the first major surface facing a forward direction with respect to the vehicle, and a second orientation with the second major surface facing a forward direction with respect to the vehicle. In the second orientation, the reflective surface provides a forward facing driver with a view of the car seat, when viewed from a center mounted rear-view mirror coupled to a vehicle windshield.

A vehicle head restraint assembly includes a base portion coupleable to a vehicle seat back, the base portion including a cross member portion. Also included is a head restraint operatively coupled to the cross member portion and rotatable about the cross member portion. Further included is a helical drive assembly for translating the head restraint during rotation of the head restraint.

A headrest assembly according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes a head restraint configured to rotate from a first locked position to a second locked position to incline the head restraint relative to a seat back. Further, the head restraint is configured such that rotation of the head restraint beyond the second locked position causes the head restraint to become urged back to the first locked position. The head restraint includes a ratchet assembly having a pawl and pawl spring, and the pawl spring includes a first section and a second section. The first section of the pawl spring is configured to contact the pawl when the head restraint is rotated from the first locked position to the second locked position, and the second section of the pawl spring is configured to contact the pawl when the head restraint is rotated beyond the second locked position.

A vehicle headrest structure includes a fixing seat, having a plurality of buckle grooves and a buckle slot; two cover plates, detachably connected to the fixing seat; two axle portions, disposed at outer end portions of the fixing seat respectively and each provided with a protruding axle and at least one accommodation recess, a spring and a steel ball being provided in the accommodation recess; two headrest bodies, each including a turning arm, a headrest portion at one end of the turning arm, and a pivot portion at another end of the turning arm, an inner side of the pivot portion being provided with a plurality of positioning recesses arranged in a circle, an outer side of the pivot portion being provided with a stepped perforation; and a screw, inserted in the stepped perforation and screwed to the protruding axle of each of the axle portions.

Components and systems of an aircraft seating assembly are disclosed. The aircraft seating assembly can include an adjustable headrest that allows the headrest to be translated and/or rotated relative to a seat, a storage sleeve, and/or a spreader. The aircraft seating assembly can include an energy absorption system. The energy absorption system can include bracket which can control pivoting of a seat back relative to the bracket when subject to forces exceeding a threshold force. The energy absorption system can include a movable wall coupled to the seat.

A headrest assembly includes upright supports that are partially disposed within a rear housing and interconnected to one another by a vertically adjustable guide bracket. A mounting plate is operably coupled to the guide bracket by a driveshaft of a first motor for driving horizontal movement of the mounting plate. A headrest bun is pivotally coupled to the mounting plate for rotating movement between upright and angled positions. A second motor is mounted to at least one of the upright supports and includes a vertical driveshaft coupled to the guide bracket for driving vertical movement of the guide bracket. The headrest bun includes first and second side bolsters that are pivotally coupled to a central support member between extended and retracted positions. The headrest assembly may further include an air moving device to provide ventilation or a heating feature to a user of the headrest assembly.

The present invention describes a head restraint system for a vehicle. The head restrained system comprises a head restraint cushion connected to headrest rods. The swivel mechanism comprises swivel rods, dampers and springs. The angular movement of the head restraint cushion is controlled by the damper movement on application of load on the head restrained cushion, where the damper movement is based on the amplitude and duration of load being applied on head restrained cushion. Another embodiment of the present invention describes a head restraint system comprising a movable assembly and a stationary assembly. The movable assembly comprises slotted guide plate, flat plate and slotted guide column. The stationary assembly comprises guide rod, and linear guide way. The movable assembly and stationary assembly are connected using a linear damping unit, where the linear damping unit is placed inside the slotted guide column.
