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.

A headrest adjusting device for headrest adjustment with respect to a backrest may have a headrest mounting bracket and a slide device movable mounted on the headrest mounting bracket. The headrest mounting bracket may have a seat belt retainer movable mounted on the headrest mounting bracket. A seat structure for a vehicle seat may also have the headrest adjusting device.

A vehicle interior system including a first seat assembly, disposed within a vehicle cabin, a first sensor, a second sensor, and a controller is provided. The first and second sensors may each be disposed within the vehicle cabin. The first sensor may be configured to obtain first signals indicative of a positioning of an obstacle within a predetermined coordinate system. The second sensor may be configured to obtain second signals indicative of a positioning of the first seat assembly within the predetermined coordinate system. The controller may be configured to receive the signals from the first sensor and to map a portion of the obstacle based on the first signals and relative to a portion of the first seat assembly within the predetermined coordinate system.

A seat (1) for transport vehicles with an articulated frame (2) capable of moving and changing shape between a neutral position N and a comfort position C, which comprises a headrest portion (21) mechanically linked by means of a connector (22) to a connection area of a backrest portion (23) that changes the height position thereof as the frame (2) moves from the neutral position N to the comfort position C thereof, the connector (22) being suitable for this change in height position to be transmitted, by means of mechanical drag, to the headrest portion (21), the headrest portion (21) being mechanically linked by means of an upper guide unit (31) of a guide system to the chassis (4) which is configured such that the inclination of both the headrest portion (21) and the backrest portion (23) increase the inclination thereof with respect to the vertical as the frame (2) moves from the neutral position N to the comfort position C thereof.

A headrest height adjustment mechanism connected to a slider fixed to a headrest, comprising: an integral engaging member, for positioning the headrest; a connecting member, a first end of the connecting member is pivotally connected to the slider, and the second end of the connecting member is connected to the engaging member; an operating member, connected to the engaging member to operate the engaging member; and an elastic member, abutted between the connecting member and the slider. The headrest height adjustment mechanism according to the application can adjust the height of the headrest in a simpler and effective manner, and has reliable locking and low cost.
