A seat device for a vehicle includes: a seat cushion and a seat base of a rear row seat, the seat base mounted on a floor of a vehicle standing upward from the floor and forming a support structure of the seat cushion; a movable cushion portion forming a sitting surface for a passenger; a seat-cushion-moving mechanism to rotate and translate the movable cushion portion so that the movable cushion portion moves between a seating position, an extended position, and a tray position. In particular, a passenger sits on the movable cushion portion in the seating position, the movable cushion portion rotates away from the seat base in the forward direction to expose a lower side of the movable cushion portion in the extended position, and the tray position is obtained when the movable cushion portion translates rearwardly from the extended position with the lower side remaining exposed.

A seat assembly may include a seat support configured to be fixed to a first mounting portion of a mounting surface; a seatback frame having an upper portion and a lower portion; a seat base including a seat base frame rotationally connected to the seat support, and a track movably connected to the seat base frame; and a linkage connecting the lower portion of the seatback frame with the track. The upper portion of the back frame may be configured to be rotationally connected to a second mounting portion of said mounting surface.

A rear row occupant support for a vehicle includes a seat bottom arranged to overlie a floor of the vehicle, a seat back coupled to the seat bottom and arranged to extend upwardly away from the floor, and a seat mode-change system that allows the rear occupant support to adjust its position to provide a storage space.

The present invention relates to a vehicle seat (1), comprising a seat element (2), which can be height-adjusted from a usage position to a stowing position, and comprising a backrest element (3), wherein the backrest element (3) can be pivoted about a stationary primary axis (A), wherein the backrest element (3) is operatively connected to the seat element (2) by means of an articulated system in such a way that the seat element (2) can be transferred from the usage position to the stowing position by means of a pivoting motion of the backrest element (3), wherein the articulated system has a deflecting element (7), wherein the deflecting element (7) can be pivoted about a stationary secondary axis (B), wherein a secondary plane (B), which extends perpendicularly to the direction of travel (D) and comprises the secondary axis (B), is arranged in front of a primary plane (A), which extends perpendicularly to the direction of travel (D) and comprises the primary axis (A), in a direction extending parallel to the direction of travel (D).

A seating assembly includes a seatback operably coupled to a support structure. A seatbase is pivotably coupled to the seatback. The seating assembly is configured to slide along a slide rail in a floor to a stowed position. The slide rail has an arcuate portion.

A vehicle with a roll cage covering right and left seats; and a cargo bed located rearward of the right and left seats. The roll cage includes right and left rear extending portions extending downward and located further rearward than the right and left seats in a side view of the vehicle, and a plurality of cross portions extending in a right left direction. The cargo bed has an area located further forward than a plane defined by the right and left rear extending portions. The plurality of cross portions include a first cross portion including portions connected to the right and left rear extending portions and including a middle portion positioned higher than the portions connected to the right and left rear extending portions. This structure enables a vehicle to have a sufficient capacity in the cargo bed and allow smooth loading and unloading of cargo.

An increase in the lateral dimension of a vehicle seat equipped with a tip up lock cancel mechanism is prevented. In a vehicle seat equipped with a tip up mechanism for retaining the seat cushion at least in a tip up position and a tip up lock cancel mechanism for releasing the seat cushion from a retained condition effected by the tip up mechanism in response to a forward tilting movement of the seat back, the tip up lock cancel mechanism includes a cable encasing member having one end fixed to the seat cushion and another end fixed to a back side frame via a fixing part, and a cable slidably received in the cable encasing member and having one end connected to the tip up mechanism and another end connected to a seat base, the fixing part for fixing the cable encasing member to the back side frame being located on an inner side of the back side frame.

The invention relates to a motor vehicle seat comprising a seating part and a back rest, in which said seat part and the back rest can be adjusted from a user position into an access position and into a loading position.

A vehicle seat including: a tilt down mechanism configured to sink down a seat cushion in conjunction with forward tilting down movement of a seat back, wherein the tilt down mechanism couples a rear part of the seat cushion to a base on a floor by a rotary shaft, couples a front part of the seat cushion to the base via a front link, and further includes a power transmission member that couples the front link and the seat back, and wherein the tilt down mechanism is configured so that the power transmission member tilts the front link downward in conjunction with the forward tilting down movement of the seat back, thereby sinking down the front part of the seat cushion about the rotary shaft.

A reclining seat includes a seat base coupled to a support surface. The seat base is moveable between extended and retracted positions as supported on a support roller by a guide rail disposed on an underside of the seat base. The guide rail includes a first support surface disposed at a first height, and a second support surface is disposed at a second height that is greater than the first height of the first support surface with a ramped portion disposed therebetween. The seat base is supported at the first support surface in the retracted position, and supported at the second support surface in the extended position. A seatback is coupled to a rear wall and is operable between upright and reclined positions. In the reclined position, the seatback is moved downward and away from the rear wall.
