Head rest
A headrest is provided including a movable unit that can be shifted to multiple positions in the front-rear direction in a normal mode. A headrest includes first and second headrest pillars, a stationary unit disposed between the first and second headrest pillars, a movable unit movable apart from or close to the stationary unit toward a front or rear direction, an X linkage connecting the stationary unit to the movable unit and including an inside linkage segment and an outside linkage segment rotatably connected each other at a central connecting intersection, and a front-rear locking mechanism including a lock receiver and a locking component engageable with the lock receiver, to lock or unlock the movable unit movable relative to the stationary unit toward the front or rear direction.
Seat with pneumatic headrest and thigh adjustment
A pneumatically adjustable seat includes a seat frame having a seat back frame portion and a headrest coupled to the seat back frame portion. The headrest includes a resilient cushion. A drive assembly includes a contact member operatively associated with the resilient cushion. A first bladder is operatively coupled to the contact member and in fluid communication with a source of pressurized fluid. Inflation of the first bladder via the source of pressurized fluid extends the contact member from a first position nearer the seat back frame to a second position further from the seat back frame. A second bladder is operatively coupled to the contact member and in fluid communication with the source of pressurized fluid. Inflation of the second bladder via the source of pressurized fluid pivots the contact member away from an occupant of the seat.
ADJUSTABLE HEADREST FOR MOTOR VEHICLE SEAT
An adjustable headrest for motor vehicle seat. The headrest includes a support structure fixed to a backrest and a body having a front shell and a rear shell. The front shell has a front face intended for contact with the head of a user of the seat, the front face being movable relative to the support structure along a front-rear direction denoted X, over a total travel distance. The total travel distance is formed by a first travel portion provided by a mounting enabling translational movement of the body relative to the support structure while maintaining the position of the front shell relative to the rear shell substantially constant. The total travel distance is also formed by a second travel portion provided by a mounting enabling translational movement of the front shell alone relative to the rear shell.
INTEGRATED COOLING SYSTEM FOR AN ADJUSTABLE HEADREST ASSEMBLY
A headrest assembly is removeably supported on a vehicle seat having a seatback with a seatback frame. The headrest assembly includes a headrest bun operably coupled to a housing via a powered linkage system for driving the headrest bun between extended and retracted positions. A temperature control system is disposed in the housing and configured to provide treated air to a conditioning area disposed below the headrest bun at a vehicle occupant's neck. The temperature control system includes a blower operably coupled to duct assembly for blowing air treated by a thermoelectric module along the duct assembly. One or more vents are disposed at a downward angle on a front portion of the housing. The one or more vents are operably coupled to and in communication with the duct assembly.
DEVICE FOR VEHICLE FOR SUPPORTING AND MASSAGING PASSENGER'S NECK
A device configured for a vehicle for supporting and massaging a neck of a passenger is provided. The device is configured such that a neck support pad is integrally formed on a lower end portion of a headrest to hold up and support the neck of a passenger, and a massage device is mounted in the neck support pad to massage the neck of the passenger, thus stably supporting and massaging the neck of the passenger sitting on a seat.
Actuator for a motor-vehicle accessory and accessory with an actuator
The invention relates inter alia to an actuator (15) for operating an accessory in the vehicle passenger compartment, having an actuating element movable relative to a housing between an unactuated position and an actuated position in opposite adjustment directions (y, y,) and is urged by a resetting device into the unactuated position, wherein it is possible for the actuating element to displace an element of the accessory that cooperates with the actuating element. The special feature is that the resetting device comprises at least one spring (18) configured as a spiral spring and having an outer end (25) and an inner end (26).

ADJUSTABLE HEAD RESTRAINT
A head restraint may include a support structure with an opening, adjustable flexible elongated members, and an adjustment mechanism. The elongated members may be attached to the support structure, may span the opening in the support structure, and may be configured to support a user's head. The adjustment mechanism may be configured to at least one of automatically and/or manually adjust tension of at least portions of the elongated members spanning the opening.
HEADREST FOR VEHICLE
The present invention relates to a headrest for a vehicle, the headrest comprising: a fixed elevating unit installed at the top end of a seat backrest and capable of being raised; a fixing shaft fixed to the fixed elevating unit and extending in a horizontal direction; a moving frame installed on the fixing shaft and including a guide rail and an automatic power transfer unit, so as to move linearly forward and backward and rotate upward and downward; a coupling main body coupled in a state enclosing the moving frame, and moving together with the moving frame; and a manually operated unit enabling the moving frame to be manually adjusted on the coupling main body. The manually operated unit is characterized by including an operating switch for electrical control so as to be capable of controlling a current flowing to the automatic power transfer unit.
Passenger seating headrest with spring adjustment assembly
The present disclosure relates to headrest assemblies for passenger vehicles. More specifically, the present disclosure describes a headrest assembly that provides adjustment between a raised position and a lowered position by way of a pair of compression springs or an over-centering linkage. Also provided herein is a method for using the same.
