VEHICLE SEAT AND METHOD FOR ADJUSTING A VEHICLE SEAT
A vehicle seat and method for adjusting the vehicle seat uses a hinge mechanism (18), a guide mechanism (20), and a single actuation device (22) designed to function selectively either in a backrest control mode, acting on the blocking device (28) in order to move the blocking device (28) towards the release position, or in a track (30) control mode, acting on the locking device (36) in order to move the locking device (36) towards the unlocking position. The actuation device (22) is controlled by a user to cause the actuation device to function either in backrest control mode or in track (30) control mode.
Latch for sliding vehicle seat adjustment
A latch assembly for a sliding seat includes a handle and a latch body fixed to the handle. The latch body is securable pivotally to one of an upper rail and a lower rail of the sliding seat. The latch body is pivotable via the handle between a locked position and an unlocked position. The latch body includes teeth openings arranged along a lengthwise dimension, where the teeth openings sequentially decrease in size. The assembly essentially eliminates problems associated with skip-locking and chucking in existing designs.
Connecting device of linear drive
Connecting device of linear drive includes a main body part with a rectangular profile, and a hardware stamping. The two opposite sides of the main body part are respectively fixedly connected with the hardware stamping. The middle portion of the main body part has a hollow cavity. A threaded axle hole device with threaded holes inside is accommodated in and fixedly connected with the cavity. The lateral walls of the cavity have locating protrusions. The hardware stamping includes two reverse bends between which the portion is disposed above the main body part. The lower portion of the hardware stamping is tightly adhered to the lateral side of the main body and bolted, while the upper portion of the hardware stamping has a connecting hole. The connecting device is light in structure, small in size and more convenient to install and is improved in bearing capability and operation stability.
Dual-function seat actuator
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for an aircraft seat with a dual-function linear actuator. The linear actuator may activate a first adjustable feature by moving in a first direction, and the linear actuator may activate a second adjustable feature by moving in a second direction. The linear actuator may include a decoupling mechanism. The decoupling mechanism may decouple the first adjustable feature and the second adjustable feature from the linear actuator in response to loss of power to the linear actuator.
Memory module and seat mounting structure with easy entry module
A memory module includes a pressure tongue rotatably mounted on a fixed block through a reset spring providing a first driving force for rotation of the pressure tongue. A rotating block is rotatably mounted on a slider through a torsion spring providing a second driving force for rotation of the rotating block, and the slider is slidably mounted on a guide rail. When the rotating block projects forwards under the action of the second driving force, a locking block is inserted into a locking hole, and an upper retaining surface is separated from a first lower retaining point. When the pressure tongue presses the rotating block downwards under the action of the first driving force to overcome the second driving force to force the rotating block to raise backwards, the locking block is separated from the locking hole, and the upper retaining surface is contact with the first lower retaining point.

VEHICLE SEAT HAVING AN EASY-ENTRY MODULE
A vehicle seat (1) has an easy-entry module (6). A backrest (2) is adjustable relative to a seat part (3) between at least one comfort position (P1) and at least one easy-entry position (P3). The backrest (2) is, together with the seat part (3), arranged so as to be longitudinally displaceable by way of rails (4) along a movement travel (W) over a longitudinal adjustment range (L) at least between two seat positions (S1.1 to S1.n). To limit the movement travel (W), at least one switchable abutment (10) is provided in the region of the rails (4). The backrest (2) is, at a predefined seat position (S2), settable upright by way of the switchable abutment (10) from the easy-entry position (P3) into the comfort position (P1) and lockable to the seat part (3) in the predefined seat position (S2).

Slide rail
A slide rail by which a conveyance seat is slidably coupled to a floor of a conveyance includes: a lower rail attached on the floor; an upper rail slidably assembled to the lower rail and attached to the conveyance seat; and a locking spring supported by the upper rail and having a locking piece that is inserted into a locking slit formed in the lower rail to prohibit the upper rail and the lower rail from sliding relative to each other. The locking piece extends in a direction along a cross-section (the width direction) of the upper rail from a position in the locking spring, at which the locking spring is supported by the upper rail. The locking piece is inserted into the locking slit by deflection deformation of the locking piece in an in-plane direction of the cross-section (the height direction) of the upper rail.
GRIP MECHANISM FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE SEAT
A removable seat of a motor vehicle includes first and second cross brackets laterally spaced apart and arranged perpendicular to first and second upper rails located in a floor of the motor vehicle, the first and second cross brackets being connected to the first and second upper rails, a cover connected to and extending between the first and second cross brackets, a handle extending laterally outward from the cover, a spring-loaded lock that holds the first upper rail in place with one of a first lower rail and second lower rail the floor, and a towel bar that releases the lock, enabling the first and second upper rails to slide within the first and second lower rails.
