A reversible seat for an automotive vehicle having a head restraint which rotates to a fold flat position between a forward-facing position and a rearward-facing position as the seat is moved between opposing forward-facing and rearward-facing positions. The head restraint folds towards the seat back as the reversible seat passes through the peak of its locus to increase clearance with a headliner of the automotive vehicle. The head restraint returns to an upright inclined position as the seat reaches the opposing position.

A vehicle module system is disclosed. The system includes a track assembly operably coupled with a body of a vehicle. One or more modules may be removably and slidably coupled with the track assembly. The modules include base structure defining an attachment point. A rail feature is disposed along a bottom portion of the base structure. An attachment feature having a retainer for removably coupling to the attachment point to the base structure.

A headrest can be pivoted between a use state and a retracted state. The headrest has a pivot shaft pivotally supported to an upper part of a back frame. Opening ends of the headrest frame are connected to the pivot shaft. A locking mechanism is provided on the pivot shaft between the ends of the headrest frame. The lock mechanism includes right and left lateral wall portions into which the pivot shaft is inserted. Right and left lateral plate portions are connected to the pivot shaft between the right and left lateral wall portions. The headrest frame is pivotally biased toward the retracted position by a pivot member biasing spring. The locking mechanism may have a columnar member. The columnar member may approach the pivot shaft while maintaining a parallel state with the pivot shaft.

The present invention relates to a headrest controlling apparatus, and more particularly, to a headrest controlling apparatus which includes a headrest cover, a bracket installed on a stay rod, and a locking member installed in the bracket to fix a position of a headrest, wherein the headrest cover includes a stay rod coupling part to which the stay rod is rotatably coupled, and thus the headrest controlling apparatus can minimize a distance from the stay rod to a front lower edge of the apparatus, can be easily assembled due to the modularized bracket and locking member, and can be easily operated due to increased precision of the locking member.

A seat is provided in which a seat cushion is pivotally coupled to a seat back by a recliner assembly. The recliner assembly is selectively operable between a locked condition preventing pivotal movement of the seat back and an unlocked condition allowing pivotal movement of the seat back. A riser assembly supports the seat assembly above a floor, such as the floor of a vehicle, and is configured for actuation and movement of the seat assembly between a generally upright seating position, a pitched easy entry position tilted forwardly and downwardly towards the floor to allow easier ingress and egress behind the seat, and a stowed position recessed within a compartment below the floor.

The invention relates, among other things, to a head support (11) retained on the vehicle seat by at least one support rod (13) and movable, in particular pivotable, relative to the support rod (13) between at least two positions, wherein the head support (11) is lockable in at least one of the positions by a latch (18), the latch (18) has a bolt (19) and at least one abutment structure having at least one strike (23a, 23b), the bolt (19) is movable out of the one position engaging the strike (23a, 23b) and locking the head support (11), the bolt (19) is supported by at least one abutment of an abutment structure on the head support (11), and the abutment and the strike (23a, 23b) have at least one abutment face (26, 39, 41). The novelty is that the bolt (19) is held in contact with at least one of the abutment faces (26, 39, 41) by at least one wedge device (31, 32, 33) and/or by at least one spring unit (25a, 25b).
