A seat control system is used with a seat of a vehicle and includes a housing, a first pulley rotatable between first, second, and third positions, and a second pulley rotatable between first and second positions. The seat control system includes a first input cable rotating a first pulley when tensioned, a first output cable tensioned by the first pulley, and a second output cable tensioned by the second pulley. A pawl is coupled to and movable with the first pulley between the first, second, and third positions and selectively rotatable relative to the first pulley. The pawl engages the second pulley to couple and rotate the first and second pulleys from the first positions to the second positions. The pawl disengages the second pulley as the first pulley rotates from the second position to the third position to permit rotation of the second pulley to the first position.

An increase in the lateral dimension of a vehicle seat equipped with a tip up lock cancel mechanism is prevented. In a vehicle seat equipped with a tip up mechanism for retaining the seat cushion at least in a tip up position and a tip up lock cancel mechanism for releasing the seat cushion from a retained condition effected by the tip up mechanism in response to a forward tilting movement of the seat back, the tip up lock cancel mechanism includes a cable encasing member having one end fixed to the seat cushion and another end fixed to a back side frame via a fixing part, and a cable slidably received in the cable encasing member and having one end connected to the tip up mechanism and another end connected to a seat base, the fixing part for fixing the cable encasing member to the back side frame being located on an inner side of the back side frame.

A seat for a vehicle is disclosed herein. The seat is configurable in a normal seating position in which a seat base is substantially horizontally arranged and a seatback is arranged in an upright position and a bulkhead configuration in which the seat base and the seatback are both substantially vertically arranged. In the bulkhead configurations, the seat base and the seatback extend upwards from a position close to a floor of the vehicle to a position close to a roof of the vehicle. When in the bulkhead position, the multi-functional seat forms a barrier between a rear cargo space and a front row of seats.

A vehicle including a floor surface and a seat. The floor surface has a floor striker. The seat is movable between a seated state and a stowed state. The seat includes a seat cushion frame, a sear back, and a seat latch. The seat cushion frame has a seat striker. The seat back is rotatably coupled to the seat cushion frame. In the seated positon, the seat latch engaged with the floor striker. In the stowed state, the seat latch engages with the seat striker.

A vehicle seat having a seat cushion and ottoman pillars attached to the seat cushion, the seat cushion can be formed in a compact manner. The vehicle seat (S) comprises a cushion frame (F1) including a pair of cushion side frames (85), a cushion front member (86) connecting front ends of the cushion side frames with each other and a cushion rear member (87). The cushion front member is provided with a pair of recesses (143) extending in a fore and aft direction, and a pair of pillar support portions (141) extending in the fore and aft direction are received in and bonded to the respective recesses, the ottoman including a pair of ottoman pillars (135) inserted into the respective pillar support portions.

A vehicle seat is provided in which a seat back is constrained from tilting down when a seat cushion is moved to a position in which the seat back cannot be tilted down. The vehicle seat includes a base frame, a seat cushion frame (3) horizontally movable relative to the base frame between a first position and a second position different from the first position, a seat back frame (4) rotatable relative to the seat cushion frame (3), a lock member (5) configured to constrain the seat back frame (4) from tilting rearward, and an unlock mechanism (6) configured to release a lock applied by the lock member (5) when the seat cushion frame (3) is moved from the first position to the second position.

It is provided a vehicle seat having a seat portion, a backrest, a catch fitting which connects the backrest to the seat portion so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis and which retains the backrest in an upright seat position in a locked state and which allows the backrest to be pivoted and folded forward relative to the seat portion in an unlocked state, a longitudinal adjustment device for longitudinally adjusting the vehicle seat with a securing unit which retains the vehicle seat in a longitudinal position in a locked state and which allows a longitudinal adjustment of the vehicle seat in an unlocked state and an easy-entry control unit which is connected to an operating element which triggers an easy-entry function for unlocking the catch fitting and the securing unit. An electromechanical actuator unlocks the securing unit in a state controlled by the easy-entry control unit.

To provide a vehicle seat that can achieve both of improvement in operability of a reclining operation and size reduction of the entire vehicle seat. This vehicle seat includes a link mechanism pivoted to a seat cushion (cushion frame), a seat back (back frame), and a leg rest (leg frame), and a hinge pin which is engageable with the link mechanism and disengageable therefrom. In the vehicle seat in a state of being between a seating position and a relaxation position, the hinge pin is engaged with the link mechanism. Accordingly, the seat back and the leg rest can be inclined in coordination with sliding movement of the seat cushion relative to a vehicle body. Thus, the vehicle seat can achieve both of improvement in operability of a reclining operation and size reduction of the entire vehicle seat.
