Disclosed is a seat elevating device including a support unit, a driving unit, and an elevating unit. The support unit is structured such that a first end is coupled to a body of a vehicle and a second end extends upward from the first end and is connected to a first end and a second end of a bar. The driving unit is coupled to an inner side surface of the support unit and equipped with a drive shaft on a side surface thereof. The elevating unit is connected to the drive shaft via a gear unit and is provided with a groove to receive the bar so that the bar slides along the groove. The elevating unit is slidable because it is engaged with the gear unit connected to the drive shaft via a rack gear that extends in parallel with a sliding movement direction of the elevating unit.

A vehicle seat comprises: a seat base; a first side member is affixed to a base at a first side of the base; a second side member is affixed to the base at a second side of the base, opposite the first side of the base; a slider slidably received in the base; a seat back assembly is rotatably coupled to the first side member and rotatably coupled to the second side member; a linkage rotatably coupled to the seat back assembly and rotatably coupled to the slider; a first lower seat lifting mechanism comprising a lifting bracket, wherein the lifting bracket is rotatably coupled to the first side member at a first end of the lifting bracket; and a second lower seat lifting mechanism comprising a bracket rotatably coupled to the base and a link arm rotatably coupled to the bracket and rotatably coupled to the slider.

A seat cushion tilting apparatus may include a fold-and-dive seat for vehicles in which tilting of a seat cushion is independently adjusted regardless of the position of a seat back, and thus, a passenger may realize a desired relaxation posture, where both reclining of the seat back of the fold-and-dive seat and tilting of the seat cushion, in which the front end portion of the seat cushion is raised or lowered regardless of the reclining position of the seat back, are enabled, and thus, body pressure may be easily distributed to the passenger's hips and thighs and fatigue to the passenger's lower body may be reduced.

A moving and locking device for a vehicle seat includes: a lower frame mounted on a bottom surface of a seat cushion; a plurality of wheels disposed underneath the lower frame in such a manner that the plurality of wheels roll on a floor panel; and a vacuum adsorption device disposed inside the lower frame and configured to be adsorbed on the floor panel by vacuum force. The vehicle seat is configured to be moved to the desired position through the rolling motion of the plurality of wheels, and configured to be locked at the desired position through vacuum adsorption of the vacuum adsorption device on the floor panel.

Disclosed is a seat elevating device including a support unit, a driving unit, and an elevating unit. The support unit is structured such that a first end is coupled to a body of a vehicle and a second end extends upward from the first end and is connected to a first end and a second end of a bar. The driving unit is coupled to an inner side surface of the support unit and equipped with a drive shaft on a side surface thereof. The elevating unit is connected to the drive shaft via a gear unit and is provided with a groove to receive the bar so that the bar slides along the groove. The elevating unit is slidable because it is engaged with the gear unit connected to the drive shaft via a rack gear that extends in parallel with a sliding movement direction of the elevating unit.

A vehicle seat having a drive device for driving a adjustment kinematics of the vehicle seat may have an adjustment arm, and a tensioning device. The drive device may have a pinion which can be rotated about a pinion rotation axis and which is in toothed engagement with a tooth segment of the adjustment arm. The tensioning device pretensions the adjustment arm so that the tooth segment is pretensioned in the direction of the pinion. The tensioning device has at least one sliding element which is in abutment with the adjustment arm. During an actuation of the height adjustment kinematics, the at least one sliding element slides along the adjustment arm. The sliding element is resiliently pretensioned by a resilient element.

A seat cushion tilting apparatus may include a fold-and-dive seat for vehicles in which tilting of a seat cushion is independently adjusted regardless of the position of a seat back, and thus, a passenger may realize a desired relaxation posture, where both reclining of the seat back of the fold-and-dive seat and tilting of the seat cushion, in which the front end portion of the seat cushion is raised or lowered regardless of the reclining position of the seat back, are enabled, and thus, body pressure may be easily distributed to the passenger's hips and thighs and fatigue to the passenger's lower body may be reduced.

Adjustable height limiter for a vehicle seat, comprising: a main body with a slot having a first end and a second end, a piston rod element which is displaceable with respect to the main body and has a pin element which is guided in the slot, a sleeve element which is rotatable with respect to the main body and at least partially surrounds the main body, the sleeve element having a boundary which is helical with respect to the main body, the boundary being arranged between the first end and the second end when viewed in the extension direction of the slot, and the pin element being arranged between the first end and the boundary.

A position control system is disclosed that replaces a parallelogram or quadrilateral movement system with greater efficiency, economy, stability and utility by eliminating one of the four links and providing a non-linear path to be followed. This system includes a dynamic triangular mechanism for movement from a first position to at least a second position, with at least three (3) link members interconnected by pivots with a first base link member defining a non-linear path, said first base link member having a fixed base pivot and a follower pivot that moves along the non-linear path, a second fixed length support link member pivotally connected to the fixed base pivot, and a third follower link member pivotally connected to, and located between, the follower pivot and a connector pivot, wherein the follower link member is adapted for following the non-linear path, thereby creating a virtual triangle defined by the three link members while the follower pivot, fixed base pivot and the connector pivot interconnect the first base link member, the second fixed length support link member and the third follower link member.
