A seating assembly includes a seatback. A seat includes a top side that defines a seating surface and a bottom side that includes an attachment interface. The seat is operably coupled with the seatback and is rotatable between a horizontal orientation and a vertical orientation. A closeable pocket is removably coupled with the attachment interface of the seat. The closeable pocket includes a zipper. A handle operably disengages a latching mechanism of the seat and is disposed above the closeable pocket. The handle includes a peripheral bezel with a light source, which is a light emitting diode, configured to illuminate the closeable pocket and a cargo space disposed below the seat.

A vehicle seat includes a seat back, a seat cushion, and a base. The seat cushion has a rear cushion portion, a front cushion portion, and a shaft support portion. The rear cushion portion has a rear upper surface and a front surface. The front cushion portion has a front upper surface and a rear surface. The shaft support portion extends in a seat width direction at a position below the front upper surface and forward of the rear surface. The shaft support portion is configured to support the front cushion portion so as to be pivotable. The front cushion portion pivots upward around the shaft support portion as the center of rotation, so that the front cushion portion is positioned in a tipped-up state.

A vehicle seat includes a backrest and a seat base as a seat part. The seat part includes a seat part frame, a trim side and an opposite harder side. The harder side has an outer peripheral surface with a recess contour. Fittings form a seat base to backrest pivot connection, for pivoting the seat base relative to the backrest and/or pivoting the backrest relative to the seat base. Pivotable hoop connections are connected to the vehicle seat frame adjacent to the opposite harder side. A storage hoop has hoop ends respectively connected to the respective pivotable hoop connections. The storage hoop is received in the recess in a stowed position, in which the hoop is disposed inwardly of a remainder of the outer peripheral surface. The stowed hoop may pivot out of the recess to a hoop deployed position, with the hoop extending outwardly from the opposite harder side.

A cable actuator system includes an actuating cable for connection to an actuator and to an actuatable device and a bypass assembly connected to the actuating cable. The bypass assembly includes a bypass input with a first input position and with a second input position. With the bypass input in the first input position the bypass assembly acts on the cable such that an actuating movement of the cable by the actuator moves the cable an actuating distance at the actuatable device to actuate the actuatable device. With the bypass input in the second input position the bypass assembly acts on the cable such that the actuating movement of the cable by the actuator does not move the cable the actuating distance at the actuatable device. A vehicle seat, with a seat base, a backrest, an actuator, and a vehicle seat actuatable device, also includes the cable actuator system.

A conveyer mechanism for a vehicle cargo area load floor includes a power seat assembly and a folding conveyer assembly carried by the power seat assembly and comprising a conveyer gearbox. A power seat motor is adapted to engage the conveyer gearbox when the power seat assembly is translated to a folded configuration. The power seat motor drives a conveyer drive gear when the power seat assembly is translated to the folded configuration, and drives a seat sector gear when the power seat assembly is translated to a deployed configuration.

A water reservoir in combination with a seating assembly for a motor vehicle comprising a lower seat assembly having a deployed position and a seatback assembly having a deployed position is disclosed, where the water reservoir is installed either behind the seatback assembly in the deployed position or below the lower seat assembly in the deployed position, and the water reservoir is removably received within a volume defined in part by either of the seatback assembly or the lower seat assembly, respectively.

A seat device for a vehicle includes: a seat cushion and a seat base of a rear row seat, the seat base mounted on a floor of a vehicle standing upward from the floor and forming a support structure of the seat cushion; a movable cushion portion forming a sitting surface for a passenger; a seat-cushion-moving mechanism to rotate and translate the movable cushion portion so that the movable cushion portion moves between a seating position, an extended position, and a tray position. In particular, a passenger sits on the movable cushion portion in the seating position, the movable cushion portion rotates away from the seat base in the forward direction to expose a lower side of the movable cushion portion in the extended position, and the tray position is obtained when the movable cushion portion translates rearwardly from the extended position with the lower side remaining exposed.

According to an illustrative embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided a vehicle seat including: a seat cushion that serves as a seating portion which receives a load of an occupant; an ottoman that is connected to a front portion of the seat cushion; a base that supports the seat cushion from a vehicle floor in a seating position at which the seat cushion receives the occupant and in a tip-up position at which the seat cushion is tipped up rearward from the seating position; and a folding mechanism that moves the ottoman between an initial position at which the ottoman is positioned at the front portion of the seat cushion and a folding position at which the ottoman is retracted beneath the seat cushion in accordance with a movement of the seat cushion from the seating position and the tip-up position.
