An airbag support device for a vehicle swivel seat includes: a support frame disposed on a lateral side of a seat back frame; a side airbag disposed on a rear plate of the support frame; a plurality of support bars disposed in an extendable manner on a lateral plate of the support frame; an extension drive bar configured to extend such that the extension drive bar connects the plurality of support bars to each other while extending; and a support bar extension drive assembly, connected to the rear plate of the support frame and the extension drive bar, wherein the support bar extension drive assembly is configured to push the extension drive bar inward and outward and at the same time to extend the support bar when the side airbag is inflated.

A seat assembly for a vehicle includes a seatback having a seat frame. The seat assembly includes a panel having an end slidably supported by the seat frame. The panel is bowable outwardly from the seat frame to a deployed position. The seat assembly includes an actuator supported by the seat frame and connected to the end of the panel.

A seat for a vehicle includes a seat back and a seat bottom extending from the seat back along a seat-bottom axis. A track is fixed relative to the seat bottom and is elongated along the seat-bottom axis. A slider is slidably engaged with the track along the seat-bottom axis. A link is pivotally engaged with the slider. An armrest is pivotally engaged with the link. A pyrotechnic actuator connected to the slider. In the event of a sensed vehicle impact, the pyrotechnic actuator pulls the slider to move the armrest to a raised position.

A seat includes a seatback and an armrest supported by the seatback. The armrest is rotatable relative to the seatback to a deployed position. A swing bar is supported by the armrest and is rotatable relative to the armrest to a downward position. The swing bar in the downward position is elongated downwardly from the armrest. A drive belt is indexed with the armrest and the swing bar to rotate the swing bar to the downward position when the armrests rotates to the deployed position.

A vehicle seat console has at least one vehicle-side guide element and at least one seat-side guide element which is arranged parallel to the vehicle-side guide element. The vehicle seat console also has at least one longitudinal adjustment device which is acted upon by a drive device and is designed to produce a relative adjustment between the vehicle-side guide element and the seat-side guide element. A force-limiting device with a force-limiting element is provided between the longitudinal adjustment device and the vehicle-side guide element and/or between the longitudinal adjustment device and the seat-side guide element. The force-limiting element has a first deformation section which deforms under the effect of a force acting thereon above a specified force threshold. The force-limiting element has a second deformation section which is guided by a deflecting assembly.

A vehicle seat structure includes a vehicle seat including a seat cushion configured to support an occupant, an upper rail that is fixed to the vehicle seat and that moves in a seat front-rear direction together with the vehicle seat, and a lower rail that is fixed to a floor of a vehicle body and that engages with the upper rail and supports the upper rail so as to allow movement of the upper rail. The vehicle seat structure includes a lock mechanism configured to restrict movement of the upper rail with respect to the lower rail. The lock mechanism is configured such that at least part of the lock mechanism deforms when a force toward the seat front side arising due to inertia acts on the vehicle seat in a state in which the upper rail is engaged with a seat rear side portion of the lower rail.
