There is provided a vehicle seat including: a left and right pair of cushion frames that structure a framework of a seat cushion, the seat cushion including a pad main body portion that supports a buttock area and thigh area of a seat occupant; a left and right pair of seat back frames; and at least one of: a seat cushion push-up mechanism that is provided inside the seat cushion uniformly across a whole of the pad main body portion in the seat width direction, or a seat back push-out mechanism that is provided inside the seat back uniformly across a whole of the back pad main body portion in the seat width direction.

A defibrillation system may include a cardiac arrest detector detecting whether cardiac arrest of a passenger has occurred in a state of taking a seat of a self-driving vehicle and fastening a seatbelt of the vehicle; a passenger posture detection device detecting a posture of the passenger; a seat driving device changing the posture of the passenger into another posture in which the passenger lies down based on a detection signal of the passenger posture detection device when the cardiac arrest of the passenger occurs; a heart position detector configured to search for a position of a heart of the passenger; a defibrillation robot to perform a CPR method or a method using an AED on the heart of the passenger; and a controller controlling operation of the seat driving device, the heart position detector, and the defibrillation robot based on detection signals of the cardiac arrest detector and the passenger posture detection device.

A vehicle system for mitigating the effects of rear or front collisions includes a vehicle seat having a vehicle seat cushion and a vehicle seatback. The vehicle seatback is rotatable relative to the vehicle seat cushion. An actuation system adjusts the position of the vehicle seatback relative to the vehicle seat cushion or the vehicle seat cushion relative to the vehicle seatback. Characteristically, the vehicle system also includes a profile selector that receives vehicle seat contextual data and determines an actuation travel profile that is applied to the vehicle seatback via the actuation system in response to the vehicle seat contextual data indicating a collision triggering event.

It is provided an adjusting device for the longitudinal adjustment of a vehicle seat, comprising at least one rail for defining a longitudinal seat axis along which a seat base of the vehicle seat is adjustable, and for supporting at least one adjusting unit of the adjusting device, and at least two shiftably guided adjusting units arranged one behind the other along the longitudinal seat axis, to which the seat base is to be fixed in order to be adjustable along the longitudinal seat axis. The at least two adjusting units are adjustable relative to each other along the longitudinal seat axis, and each adjusting unit is assigned a separate drive for the power-operated adjustment along the longitudinal seat axis.

The present disclosure relates to a height adjustment apparatus of a vehicle seat, whereby during a height adjustment of a seat cushion, a desired tilting angle of the seat cushion is obtained and heights of a front part and a rear part of the seat cushion are individually adjusted. Due to the height adjustment apparatus, the comfort of a seated occupant is improved by adjusting the angles of the seat cushion in response to various postures of the occupant. In addition, a link connection is structurally secured and thus its durability is also improved.

Provided is a conveyance seat including a pelvis support member of which a state or the like is adjusted. The conveyance seat includes the pelvis support member configured to support a portion of an occupant's body where a pelvis is positioned and lumbar supports configured to move the pelvis support member. The pelvis support member includes a seat back side support portion positioned behind a back portion of the occupant, a seat cushion side support portion positioned below buttocks of the occupant, and a connection portion that connects the seat back side support portion and the seat cushion side support portion. The lumbar supports are configured to move the pelvis support member so that a position of at least one of the seat back side support portion, the seat cushion side support portion, and the connection portion is changed with respect to the portion where the pelvis is positioned.

There is provided a vehicle seat including: a left and right pair of cushion frames that structure a framework of a seat cushion, the seat cushion including a pad main body portion that supports a buttock area and thigh area of a seat occupant; a left and right pair of seat back frames; and at least one of: a seat cushion push-up mechanism that is provided inside the seat cushion uniformly across a whole of the pad main body portion in the seat width direction, or a seat back push-out mechanism that is provided inside the seat back uniformly across a whole of the back pad main body portion in the seat width direction.

A seat assembly forming a substantially horizontal plane for an exposed surface of each of a lower seat cushion and a seatback cushion of a seatback comprises a lifter mechanism for a rearward edge of the lower seat cushion. The lifter mechanism comprises a bracket pivotable about a transverse bar fixedly mounted to a frame assembly for a lower seat assembly, the bracket comprising a forward lever and a rearward lever; and a link pinned at a first end to the seatback and pinned at a second end to the rearward lever by a slot. The rearward edge of the lower seat cushion is initially raised by the forward lever upon the seatback pivoting to a predetermined reclined position and the rearward edge of the lower seat cushion is raised to the substantially horizontal plane upon the seatback pivoting to a fully reclined position.
