A brake device comprises a brake mechanism which comprises an output shaft having a drive gear secured thereto, a brake housing having a cylindrical braking surface therein and coaxially putting therein the output shaft, two pairs of clamp members movably and abreast installed in the brake housing in such a manner that paired two clamp members of each pair put therebetween an enlarged operation part of the output shaft and two springs that bias the two clamp member of each pair to pivot away from each other, in which each of the clamp members has an outer clamp surface that is slidably contactable with the cylindrical braking surface and includes larger and smaller clamp surface areas that are spaced from each other by a recess.

A seating system for a vehicle includes a seat cushion and a seat back pivotably attached to the seat cushion. A latch arrangement has a locked position for inhibiting pivoting of the seat back relative to the seat cushion and an open position for facilitating pivoting of the seat back relative to the seat cushion. A rotatable actuator defines a first radius and a second radius. A first flexible member is attached to the rotatable actuator at the first radius such that tensioning the first flexible member rotates the rotatable actuator in a first direction. A second flexible member is attached to the latch arrangement and the rotatable actuator at the second radius such that rotation of the rotatable actuator in the first direction tensions the second flexible member and moves the latch arrangement from the locked position to the open position.

A rotatable armrest includes: a housing; a button system; and a hinge system engaged to the button system, in which the button system and the hinge system are provided in the housing, in which the hinge system includes a hinge shaft, and the rotatable armrest is fixed at a first position, a second position, or a third position by being rotated about the hinge shaft, and in which the rotatable armrest is configured to be positioned to be folded downward at the first position, the rotatable armrest is configured to be positioned to be directed forward horizontally at the second position, and the rotatable armrest is configured to be positioned to be directed rearward horizontally at the third position.

The invention relates to a headrest, in particular for a vehicle seat, with a head contact part (11), with a support (12) for mounting the headrest (10) on a fixed structure, with at least one parallelogrammatic linkage (23) between the head contact part (11) and the support (12) that carries the head contact part (11) for movement relative to the support (12) between a first position and a second position, wherein the parallelogrammatic linkage (23) comprises at least two links (16, 17), and each link (16, 17) forms at least one pivot joint (G1A, G2A, G1C, G2C) with the support (12) and at least one pivot joint (G1B, G2B, G1D, G2D) with the head contact part (11), with a latch (19), with a first latch formation on the support (12) and a second latch formation on the head contact part (11), wherein the first latch formation and the second latch formation are in engagement in a locked position and are disengaged in a release position.

The special feature is that the first latch formation is fixed on the support (12) or that an upper region of at least one link (116) is provided with the first latch formation, and that the second latch formation is fixed on the head contact part (11).

A clutch unit includes: an input-side transmission member provided to move from an initial position toward a tip of the wedge-shaped space, and an inside tangential line is a tangential line at a contact point of the input-side transmission member and the input-side inner ring member, an outside tangential line is a tangential line at a contact point of the input-side transmission member and the input-side outer ring member, and a segment connects a rotational center of the input-side transmission member with an intersection point between the inside tangential line and the outside tangential line, wherein a wedge angle is an acute angle defined by the segment and the inside tangential line, and a stopper projection is provided at a tip-side position, and a wedge angle formed by the stopper projection is larger than an initial wedge angle at the initial position.

A seating assembly includes a striker pin operably coupled to a track assembly, a sector arm operably coupled to a seat base and defining a first pivot axis and a second pivot axis, a dual cam latch disposed between the second pivot axis and the seat base when the sector arm is in a raised position and engageable with the striker pin when the sector arm is in a lowered position, wherein the dual cam latch is releasable by a forward movement of a seatback, a release cam operably coupled to the sector arm along the second pivot axis, wherein the release cam is configured to rotate downward when the sector arm is in the raised position, and a release bar including a front portion and a rear portion, wherein the rear portion is engageable by the release cam.

In the case of a seat with an armrest on an automobile, an armrest lock mechanism may be released by, for example, the gravitational acceleration (G) in the event of vehicle collision. Accordingly, it is necessary to provide an anti-G spring for biasing to prevent the lock mechanism from being easily released. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an armrest unlocking device that enables a decrease in size of the anti-G spring. In order to solve the problem, provided is an armrest unlocking device in gear, the device operating such that the locking of the lock gear and the sector gear can be released by operating a lever link bracket so as to raise the lock gear, wherein the lock gear has a center of rotation thereof aligned with the position of the center of gravity.

A torque transfer control mechanism that suppresses output-side displacement, and including a rotation control unit that maintains a locked state when an input torque rotating a transfer mechanism is not applied, and releases the locked state when the transfer mechanism rotates. The rotation control unit includes an internal gear and lock plates that include outer teeth that can engage with inner teeth of the internal gear. When an input torque is not applied, the inner teeth of the internal gear engage with the outer teeth of the lock plates, and when the transfer mechanism is rotated, engagement between the inner teeth and the outer teeth is released. Thus, even when torque is applied from the output unit side, engagement between the inner teeth and the outer teeth is not released by the torque.
