An airplane seat device with at least one airplane seat is at least configured to be adjusted between a use position and a stowage position. In the stowage position, the airplane seat has a maximum height which is equal to or less than a maximum height in the use position.

A vehicle seat includes a seat main body and a hinge member. The seat main body is disposed in a state facing to a vehicle rear side. A seat back of the seat main body is attached to a vehicle body side vertical wall portion of a passenger compartment front portion. An end portion at the vehicle rear side of a seat cushion of the seat main body can be flipped up. One end portion of the hinge member is fixed to an end portion at the vehicle front side of the seat cushion and another end portion is rotatably coupled to a passenger compartment floor portion. The hinge member is provided with a weakened portion that, during a vehicle front collision in a state in which the seat main body is unfolded, plastically deforms and allows movement of the seat cushion toward the vehicle front side.

A motor vehicle comprises two front seats aligned in a transverse direction, and at least one rear seat. Said at least one rear seat comprises a seating portion with a seating portion frame, a backrest with a backrest frame. The backrest frame is pivotable relative to the seating portion frame about a first transverse axis, between at least one deployed position for receiving an occupant of the seat and a folded position in which the backrest frame is folded down to face the seating portion frame. Said at least one rear seat is adapted to have a configuration in which said at least one rear seat is in said folded position and the backrest of said at least one rear seat extends at least partly between the two front seats.

System including a vehicle seat comprising a seating portion, a backrest pivotally mounted on the seat by a lockable hinge mechanism, the seat further comprising a motorized adjustment device connected to the backrest independently of the hinge mechanism. An electric control device synchronously controls the hinge mechanism and the motorized adjustment device.

A vehicle seat comprising a base, a seating portion connected to the base by a front connecting rod, a backrest support lockable on the base, a backrest pivotally mounted on the backrest support by a hinge mechanism and connected to the seating portion by a pivot. The backrest support is connected to the base by two rear connecting rods configured so that the backrest is folded horizontally in a console position when the front connecting rod pivots forward after unlocking the backrest support while the hinge mechanism is not actuated.

A device for improving the accessibility to the space below a vehicle seat (1) and thus its use as a storage space. The device enables the position of the seat (1) or a seat guide (2) with the seat (1) arranged above to be moved in the direction of the front of the vehicle (7) such that accessibility to the stowage space which is in the form of a receiving container (6) or a support is ensured.

A multiple position convertible seat assembly for a boat includes three seat frames pivotally coupled to the boat and to each other to move from a first position as a seat, a second position as a lounge seat with leg support, and a third position forming another seat. In the third position, the seat includes a foldout cushion exposing a work surface.

A seat locking system for selectively locking a pivotable seat in a retracted position and in an extended position. The seat locking system includes a lock and a pivotable locking pawl adapted to selectively engage the lock.

A seat locking system for locking selectively a pivotable seat in a retracted position and in an extended position. The seat locking system includes a lock and a pivotable locking pawl adapted to selectively engage the lock.

A seating assembly for a vehicle includes a seat base pivotally and slidably coupled with a seatback and a support frame operable between a deployed position and a collapsed position. The support frame includes a first member that is pivotally coupled with a bottom portion of the seat base and pivotally coupled to a lower frame member fixedly attached to a floor support and a second member that is slidably coupled with a bottom portion of the seat base, pivotally coupled with the first member, and slidably coupled with the floor support. The support frame also includes a kickstand pivotally coupled to the floor support and slidably coupled to the seat base. The kickstand is operable between a forward position and a rearward position, wherein the kickstand is biased to and lockable in the forward position.
