SEAT DEVICE AND VEHICLE
A vehicle seat device includes a seat cushion having a cushion front side and cushion rear side both running in the transverse direction of the seat device. The device also includes a seat back having two backrest edge sides opposite each other and each running in the transverse direction of the seat device. The seat back is arrangeable on the cushion front and rear sides of the seat cushion in order to change a seat direction. The seat back is mounted so as to be rotatable by at least 180° around a transverse axis in order to change the seat direction. At least one headrest unit is arranged on the seat back in a displaceable manner in such a way that it can be displaced beyond the backrest edge side facing away from the seat cushion in each case and can be displaced back under this backrest edge side.
KINEMATIC VEHICLE SEAT FOLDING
Various vehicle seat improvements are enabled herein. For instance, a seat folding mechanism comprises a first mounting bracket, rotatably attached to a base at a first end of the first mounting bracket, a first end of a connecting rod attached at a second end of the first mounting bracket, opposite the first end of the first mounting bracket, a second mounting bracket, parallel to the first mounting bracket, rotatably attached to the base at a first end of the second mounting bracket, wherein the connecting rod is attached at a second end of the connecting rod to a second end of the second mounting bracket, opposite the first end of the second mounting bracket, a first link arm, rotatably attached at a first end of the first link arm to the first mounting bracket, adjacent to the second end of the first mounting bracket, a first slider, slidably attached to the base, wherein a second end of the first link arm, opposite the first end of the first link arm, is rotatably attached to the first slider, a second link arm, rotatably attached at a first end of the second link arm to the second mounting bracket, adjacent to the second end of the second mounting bracket, and a second slider, slidably attached to the base, wherein a second end of the second link arm, opposite the first end of the second link arm, is rotatably attached to the second slider, whereby sliding of the first slider and the second slider causes the connecting rod to move in height direction.
Seat lock device
A seat lock device provided to a tiltable seat back comprises: a locking part capable of switching among a locked state wherein a striker installed in a vehicle body is locked, an unlocked state wherein the striker can be disengaged, and a free state wherein the striker is disengaged; an unlocking part disposed at a position different from the locking part on the seat back and having a lever member and a coupling member for coupling the lever member and locking part, and which switches the locking part from the locked state to the unlocked state in response to manipulation of the lever member; and an integrally-molded case which holds the locking part and unlocking part and is fastened to the seat back.
Non-metal mesh chair for marine use
A non-metal seat comprising a non-metal frame work and a non-metal open mesh seating surface stretched across an opening in a base portion of the non-metal framework and a non-metal open mesh back rest surface stretched across an opening in a back support portion of the non-metal framework. The non-metal frame is constructed from plastic and the non-metal open mesh comprises a woven or knit open mesh panel comprising nylon, vinyl, or a combination thereof. The seat has a pivoting mechanism coupling the base portion to the back support portion such that the non-metal seat is a foldable seat.
VEHICLE SEATBACK FOLDING DEVICE
A vehicle seatback folding device includes: a cushion bracket; a back side frame rotating on the cushion bracket; a spring mounting bracket coupled to rotate integrally with the back side frame around a hinge-coupling part; a return spring for applying, to the back side frame, elastic restoring force for rotating the back side frame in the folding direction of a seatback; and a reverse spring supported in a state in which a first end portion is caught by the spring mounting bracket and a second end portion is caught by a first spring support end.
GOLF BAG MOUNTING SYSTEM FOR A STANDUP MOTORIZED TRANSPORT UTILITY VEHICLE
A motorized standup utility vehicle having a golf bag mounting system to mount a golf bag. The golf bag mounting system enables the golf bag to swivel in multiple positions (left, right, center) and rotate and tilt between a range of 90 degrees (vertical) to 30 degrees (horizontal) positions. The golf bag mounting system comprises an upper bag support assembly, a lower bag support assembly, a swivel mounting plate, a cradle bracket, a bushing plate and a cylindrical tube which are all connected by connecting bolts. Further bungee cords are used to secure a golf bag to the golf bag mounting system.
Kinematic vehicle seat folding
Various vehicle seat improvements are enabled herein. For instance, a seat folding mechanism comprises a first mounting bracket, rotatably attached to a base at a first end of the first mounting bracket, a first end of a connecting rod attached at a second end of the first mounting bracket, opposite the first end of the first mounting bracket, a second mounting bracket, parallel to the first mounting bracket, rotatably attached to the base at a first end of the second mounting bracket, wherein the connecting rod is attached at a second end of the connecting rod to a second end of the second mounting bracket, opposite the first end of the second mounting bracket, a first link arm, rotatably attached at a first end of the first link arm to the first mounting bracket, adjacent to the second end of the first mounting bracket, a first slider, slidably attached to the base, wherein a second end of the first link arm, opposite the first end of the first link arm, is rotatably attached to the first slider, a second link arm, rotatably attached at a first end of the second link arm to the second mounting bracket, adjacent to the second end of the second mounting bracket, and a second slider, slidably attached to the base, wherein a second end of the second link arm, opposite the first end of the second link arm, is rotatably attached to the second slider, whereby sliding of the first slider and the second slider causes the connecting rod to move in height direction.
Support mechanism for seating assembly
A support mechanism for a vehicle seating assembly includes a seat frame moveable between a sitting position and a standing position and a support bracket coupled to a vehicle floor. A linkage assembly extends between the support bracket and the seat frame. The linkage assembly is positionable between a collapsed position if the seat frame is in the sitting position and an extended position if the seat frame is in the standing position and includes a first end rotatably coupled to the support bracket and a second end slidably coupled to the seat frame. A pawl assembly is engageable with the linkage assembly and positionable in an unlocked position if the linkage assembly is in the collapsed position and a locked position if the linkage assembly is in the extended position.
Side-by-side vehicle
The present invention relates to a replacement seat for utility vehicles configured to couple to the frame of the utility vehicle without modifications and/or additional parts.
Seating assembly with powered or manual actuation
A vehicle seating assembly includes a frame movable between a sitting position and a standing position and pivotably coupled to a vehicle floor at a pivotable coupling defining a first axis of rotation. The vehicle seating assembly has a pivot bracket coupled to the vehicle floor, a linkage assembly with a link extending between the pivot bracket and the frame, and a shaft extending through the pivot bracket and the link in a direction transverse to the link, and defining a second axis of rotation. The vehicle assembly also includes a gear assembly with a sector gear and a pinion gear operable to move the sector gear from a first position to a second position, and a pawl assembly coupled to the sector gear and selectively engageable with the shaft to position the shaft in fixed and unfixed positions.
