SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING INTEGRATED CONTROL OF SEATS OF SELF-DRIVING VEHICLE
The present disclosure relates to a system and method for performing integrated control of seats of a self-driving vehicle capable of performing integrated control of swivel and displacement of front seats, rear seats, and a console in the self-driving vehicle using predetermined operation modes. The system and method for performing integrated control of the seats of the self-driving vehicle are capable of smoothly controlling swivel and displacement of the front seats, the rear seats, and the console under the control of an integrated controller according to predetermined operation modes without interference based on information about the position values of motors for the forward and rearward movement, reclining, and swivel of the front seats and rear seats (information about the amount of rotation of the motors from the original positions thereof) and information about the position value of a motor for the forward and rearward movement of the console.
VEHICULAR SEAT ADJUSTMENT DEVICE, POSITION ADJUSTMENT CONTROL DEVICE, AND VEHICULAR SEAT ADJUSTMENT METHOD
A vehicle seat adjustment device includes a first adjustment mechanism, a second adjustment mechanism, and a controller. The first adjustment mechanism is moved in a first direction upon driving of a first motor to adjust a position of a vehicle seat. The second adjustment mechanism is moved in both the first direction and a second direction orthogonal to the first direction upon driving of a second motor to adjust the position of the vehicle seat. The controller controls and drives the first motor and the second motor. A speed at which the second adjustment mechanism is moved in the first direction is lower than or equal to a speed at which the first adjustment mechanism is moved in the first direction. When the second motor needs to be driven, the controller drives the second motor while driving the first motor.
Vehicle seat
A vehicle seat includes: a seat main body that includes a seat cushion and a seatback that is connected to a seat rear side end portion of the seat cushion and that is rotatable in a seat front-rear direction with respect to the seat cushion; and a lifter device that moves the seat main body in a seat up-down direction, wherein the seat main body is moved toward a seat upper side by the lifter device in a case in which a reclining angle of the seatback is greater than a predetermined angle and the seat main body is lower than a predetermined height.
Seat adjustment limiter and method of control
A vehicle seat controller is provided to control a front seat assembly and a rear seat assembly positioned directly behind of the front seat assembly. The vehicle seat controller programmed to receive a first input indicating whether the rear seat assembly is occupied and receive a second input indicating a position of the front seat assembly. The vehicle seat controller is programmed to provide a signal to an actuator to move the front seat assembly forward if the first input indicates the rear seat is occupied and the second input indicates the position exceeds a rearward travel threshold.
Method, Device and System for Automatically Adjusting Driver-Related In-Vehicle Equipment
A method, device and system for a method, device, and system for automatically adjusting driver-related in-vehicle equipment, the method including the steps of: acquiring a driver's height from a detection device of a vehicle; determining preset values of additional body parameters of the driver based on the driver's height and calculating a position for entry using the driver's height and the preset values of the additional body parameters of the driver; and adjusting the equipment including a driver's seat to the position for entry so as to facilitate the driver to enter the vehicle and sit on the seat.
WORK VEHICLE OPERATOR STATION WITH SWIVEL ARM RAISE AVOIDANCE SYSTEM
An operator station for a cab of a work vehicle is provided. The operator station includes a base frame configured to be fixedly secured to a floor of the cab; an operator chair including a chair frame rotatably coupled to the base frame to rotate about an upright swivel axis; and a first chair arm positioned on a lateral side of the operator chair. The first chair arm includes a first chair arm body; and a first chair arm adjustment mechanism coupled to the base frame and the first chair arm body and configured to pivot the first chair arm body about a lateral axis substantially perpendicular to the swivel axis as the chair frame rotates about the swivel axis with respect to the base frame.
SUSPENDED VEHICLE SEATING SYSTEM
Examples herein describe a vehicle seating system. The vehicle seating system may include a rail mounted to a vehicle roof and supported by a vehicle frame. The vehicle seating system may include an anchor system movable along the rail, the anchor system including: a locking device that locks the anchor system in a position along the rail; and a heating, vacuuming, and air conditioning (HVAC) port in communication with a HVAC duct within the vehicle roof. The vehicle seating system may include an interchangeable seat module that connects to the anchor system to suspend the seat module above a floor of the vehicle, wherein the seat module connects to the HVAC port.
Seat for vehicle
When an occupant stretches his/her lower extremity in a state where putting his/her foot on a foot resting portion during autonomous driving of a vehicle, a seat is controlled so as to move rearward and obliquely upward along a control portion. Concurrently, a seat cushion is controlled so that its front portion moves downward while being supported by a link member and then its inclination angle is made gentle. When at least one of a position and an angle of at least one of the seat cushion and the seatback is controlled, an upper end of the seat is located on an inclined straight line extending downward on a forward side of the upper end.
Control of a seating arrangement
A method of controlling a seating arrangement of a vehicle, the seating arrangement comprising a rear seat including a deployable calf rest, the method comprising: receiving a signal indicative of a state of a component of a front seat positioned ahead of the rear seat; and controlling movement of the calf rest in dependence on the signal indicative of the state of the front seat component.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY RESTORING SEATBACK
A device and a method for automatically restoring a seatback is provided in which a seatback is electrically deployed at a predetermined angle by being interlocked when a seat of a vehicle is moved to a predetermined position to facilitate a passenger to get into and out of the vehicle. The device includes a seat cushion, a seatback installed in the seat cushion to be adjustable in angle, a seat rail, and a seat track slidably installed in the seat rail. A seat position detection sensor detects a position of the seat track and a seat position detection member operates the seat position detection sensor. A seatback angle adjustment motor adjusts an angle of the seatback. When the seat position detection sensor detects that the seat track reaches a predetermined operating position, the seatback angle adjustment motor deploys the seatback.
