A seat rail assembly capable of stably holding a position of one or more vehicle seats relative to the vehicle floor. The seat rail assembly includes an upper rail on which the seat is provided and a lower rail which is mounted to the vehicle floor. The upper rail is slidably provided within the lower rail, and incorporates an engagement assembly with a dual wedge engagement assembly to ensure constant contact between the lower and upper rails. A gearbox configured to remove lash may be provided on the upper rail for moving the upper rail relative to the lower rail.

A control mechanism for a lock pawl comprises an electric motor mounted in a housing that is connected with the seat backrest and has an output shaft with a worm gear engaging with the spur gearing of a transmission gear rotary-mounted on a transmission pivot and having on its frontal surface an eccentric selector pivot for controlling the pawl of the lock, swing-mounted on a pawl pivot between a blocking position, in which the pawl blocks a rotary ratchet of the lock from releasing a catch eye connected with the car bodywork, and an unlocking position, in which the pawl releases the rotary ratchet to release the catch eye, the pawl having a radial selector arm, which in the blocking position of the pawl interferes with the circular trajectory of the selector pivot to enable the selector pivot to engage with the selector arm, whereas the pawl has a radial control arm.

A power seat slide device capable of changing not only to an electric operation but also to an manual operation, and preventing half-lock in spite of a manually operable structure. For front-rear movement, a rack attached to a lower rail and a pinion meshed with the rack are used, and a driving force of a motor is transmitted to the pinion, which enables the use in an electric mode. As no slide screw is used, while the motor is not energized, rotating the pinion causes an output shaft of the motor to rotate, so that manual adjustment becomes possible.

In a seat reclining device, a seatback frame forming a skeleton of a seatback is coupled to a seat cushion frame to be rotatable about a shaft with respect to the seat cushion frame. One end portion of a first sliding bracket is rotatably coupled to a middle portion of the seatback frame by a driving unit. The other end portion of the first sliding bracket extends toward a vehicle body located behind the seatback. A second sliding bracket is mounted on the vehicle body located behind the seatback and extends toward the first sliding bracket in a front and rear longitudinal direction to be connected to the first sliding bracket. The second sliding bracket is configured to guide a sliding movement of the first sliding bracket while the first sliding bracket is being rotated.

The present disclosure relates to a reclining device for a seat, which can adjust a seatback at various angles through movement of a striker installed in a vehicle body. The reclining device for a seat includes a latch installed on a side of a seatback and configured to be rotated together with the seatback, and a striker module in which the latch is engaged with a striker installed in a vehicle body, where the striker moves in a certain section overlapping a rotation trajectory of the latch in a state where the latch is engaged and reclines the seatback together with the latch.

A swing seat unit may include a seat which is provided on a fixing frame and swings on the fixing frame; a dome frame which is provided to be spaced from a rear of the seat and extends upward to surround the rear of the seat; a hemispherical swing dome which is provided on an upper portion of the dome frame, swingable on the dome frame, and is opened downward toward a predetermined direction; and a second driving portion which is provided between the dome frame and the swing dome to provide power for swing the swing dome.

A drive system (2) tilt adjusts a back rest (10) of a vehicle seat (1). The back rest (10) is held on a seat base (11) by a fitting (12). An output pinion (24), drivable by a drive motor (20), is provided on the seat back side and interacts with a tooth segment (18) arranged rotationally fixed on the base (11). A pivot movement of the back rest (10) can be carried out by the drive motor (20) while the fitting (12) is unlocked. The output pinion (24) can be uncoupled from the drive motor (20) by a coupling (22). A compensation spring (14) acting between the back rest (10) and the base (11) pre-tensions the back rest (10) in the direction of the non-use position. A vehicle seat (1) with the drive system and a method for operating a drive system (2) are also provided.

Proposed are a vehicle seat monopost assembly and a vehicle seat mounted thereon. In one aspect, a drive part includes a housing mounted on a lower frame connected to a vehicle body and a first engagement part configured to be rotated by a drive source. A second engagement part suitably may include a thread configured to be engaged with the first engagement part and a cylindrical body configured to be fixed to a vehicle seat frame. A connecting sleeve part is seated on the drive part and has an inner space into which the lead screw part is fitted. The connecting sleeve part is configured to restrict a rotation in response to an operation of a rotation restricting member.

Described herein are illustrative embodiments of a multi-pivot seat base assembly including a first pivot assembly having a fixed part mountable to a floor and a pivotable part, a proximate arm having a proximate end mounted to the pivotable part of the first pivot assembly and a distal end including a fixed part of a second pivot assembly, a distal arm having a proximate end provided with a pivotable part of the second pivot assembly; the proximate end of the distal arm being pivotally mounted to the fixed part of the second pivot assembly; the distal arm including a distal end provided with a seat receiving post; and a controllable damping mechanism provided between the fixed part and the pivotable part of the first pivot assembly.

A gearbox assembly includes a housing, a cover, a screw rod inserted through the housing along a first direction, a worm wheel integrally formed on the screw rod, and a worm arranged in the housing along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The worm is driven into rotation by a driving shaft, so that the worm drives the worm wheel and the screw rod into rotation through a kinetic pair. The screw rod moves a lifting mechanism attached to the screw rod in a vertical direction through screw transmission. A stop pin is arranged on the housing and positioned in the direction of extension of a free end of the driving shaft of the worm against the free end.
