Adjustable Seat Assembly for a Tilting Vehicle and Tilting Vehicle With Such an Adjustable Seat Assembly
An adjustable seat assembly for a tilting vehicle includes a seat pan configured to be secured in a fixed position with respect to a frame of the tilting vehicle, at least one cushion unit arranged on the seat pan and forming a seat surface, and at least one adjustment device by which the seat surface is transferable from a low seat position into at least one raised seat position. In addition or alternatively, the at least one adjusting device may alter an inclination of the seat surface relative to the seat pan. The cushion unit has at least one base cushion secured in a fixed position on the seat pan, and at least one adjustable cushion which is movable relative to the base cushion by the adjustment device.
VEHICLE SEAT
A vehicle seat (11) includes a seat frame (22a) having an opening (46) in a plate-shaped part (43), and an actuator (31) mounted on the plate-shaped part (43). Accordingly, it is possible to provide a vehicle seat that further contributes to quietness in the interior of a vehicle.
Seat module
A seat module adapted to be attached to a seat having mechanical parts and electric devices for seat operation in a motor vehicle includes at least one operating cable for activating at least one device, and a cushion suspension module adapted to support a cushion of the seat having a plurality of cushion suspension wires for attaching to the seat and at least one module plates coupled with the cushion suspension wires. An end portion of the operating cable is temporarily stowed on the cushion suspension module in a pre-assembled state where the operating cable is attached to the cushion suspension module, and the end portion of the operating cable is connected to the electric devices and/or mechanical parts of the seat in an assembled state where the cushion suspension module with the attached operating cables is securely mounted to the seat.
Seat elevating device
Disclosed is a seat elevating device including a support unit, a driving unit, and an elevating unit. The support unit is structured such that a first end is coupled to a body of a vehicle and a second end extends upward from the first end and is connected to a first end and a second end of a bar. The driving unit is coupled to an inner side surface of the support unit and equipped with a drive shaft on a side surface thereof. The elevating unit is connected to the drive shaft via a gear unit and is provided with a groove to receive the bar so that the bar slides along the groove. The elevating unit is slidable because it is engaged with the gear unit connected to the drive shaft via a rack gear that extends in parallel with a sliding movement direction of the elevating unit.
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.
Adjustment device for the longitudinal adjustment of a vehicle seat
It is provided an adjusting device for the longitudinal adjustment of a vehicle seat, comprising at least one rail for defining a longitudinal seat axis along which a seat base of the vehicle seat is adjustable, and for supporting at least one adjusting unit of the adjusting device, and at least two shiftably guided adjusting units arranged one behind the other along the longitudinal seat axis, to which the seat base is to be fixed in order to be adjustable along the longitudinal seat axis. The at least two adjusting units are adjustable relative to each other along the longitudinal seat axis, and each adjusting unit is assigned a separate drive for the power-operated adjustment along the longitudinal seat axis.
Pumping device for seat of vehicle
A pumping device for a seat of a vehicle is proposed. In the pumping device, a plurality of pressure members is provided along an outer circumferential surface of a brake drum, and braking operation is performed through the pressure members moved when the brake drum rotates, so that friction between the brake drum and a housing can be avoided and thus deterioration of operational performance is prevented. In addition, the shape of the brake drum is simplified and the number of components is reduced, so that weight and size of the pumping device, and production cost are reduced, and fuel efficiency increases.
Motor home chair lift
A motor home seat lift apparatus is provided which is located within the vehicle at the front passenger door, which is foldable to a storage location adjacent to the dashboard and forward of the front passenger seat, and which unfolds for usage to place a lift seat adjacent to the level of the front passenger seat, from which a user can slide onto (or off of) the lift seat. The lift seat is then movable from the that level, downward and outward through the opened front passenger door, to a level comfortably adjacent the ground level, for the user to then stand upon when exiting the lift seat. In general, the apparatus includes a lift seat which moves laterally within the vehicle into and out of the door, and rotates up and down between the exterior ground level and the passenger seat level, above the passenger compartment floor. The lift seat is also rotatable during this lateral and rotational motion, so that the user can be comfortably reoriented to face the direction of motion and avoid impact with other vehicle structure.
METHOD FOR THE AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF A COCKPIT INSIDE A ROAD VEHICLE AND RELATIVE ROAD VEHICLE
A method for the automatic adjustment of a cockpit inside a road vehicle comprising the steps of determining anthropometric data of a driver; processing an ergonomic position of a model of the driver sitting on board the road vehicle; processing an optimal configuration of the cockpit; operating a plurality of actuator systems so as to cause the cockpit to reach the optimal configuration; wherein the ergonomic position of the model is processed in association with a minimum ground visibility; a minimum visibility of a control panel; and at least one first comfort angle of a body joint of the driver.
Vehicle seat having a roller guide
The invention relates to a vehicle seat having a roller guide which has at least one guide rail which is at least partially sideways open and at least one running roller rolling in the guide rail, connected to parts of the vehicle seat via an axle member, wherein a running surface of the running roller is rollable along a roller-underside inner wall of the guide rail arranged parallel or at an angle to a middle axle of the running roller, wherein the running roller comprises at least a first area and a second area, wherein the first area forms at least a part of the running surface and the second area is arranged in a radial direction of the running roller at least partially between the axle member and the first area and in contact with both. According to the invention, an electrical conductivity of the first area is lower than an electrical conductivity of the second area.
