A vehicle seating assembly has a seat having a lower seat and a seatback extending upwardly from the lower seat. The seatback has a lower stationary seatback base portion having a seatback frame assembly, and an upper movable seatback hood module vertically adjustable relative the lower stationary portion. The upper movable seatback hood module has an upper seatback slide bracket, and a plurality of rail guides slidably engaging a rail. An electric motor drive unit engages a driven member to vertically adjust the upper movable seatback hood module relative the lower stationary portion when the electric motor drive unit is actuated.

A vehicle seating assembly for a motor vehicle has a lower seat and a seatback extending upwardly from the lower seat. The seatback comprises a forward facing surface, a rearward facing surface, and a headrest mounted on an upper portion of the seatback and received within a central recess disposed on the forward facing surface of the seatback, wherein the seatback further comprises a headrest dovetail mounted on the headrest and a dovetail receiver mounted within the recess having a slot into which the headrest dovetail is received.

A vehicle seating assembly comprises a seat having a lower seat and a seatback extending upwardly from the lower seat. The seatback comprises a forward facing surface, a rearward facing surface, a headrest mounted on an upper portion of the seatback and received within a headrest cup disposed on the forward facing surface of the seatback, a speaker assembly mounted in the headrest cup, and a resonance cavity formed proximate the headrest cup within which the speaker assembly is received.

A seat headrest having a side cushion and a mounting mechanism for use in conjunction with existing, standard airplane seat headrests. The seat headrest has an adjustable side cushion to provide head and neck support by serving as headrests on the side of a user's head. The user may be any individual in a passenger airplane.

A headrest assembly for a vehicle seat. The headrest assembly includes a support bracket having a first engagement section and a moveable bracket movable between first and second positions. The headrest assembly further includes a pawl defining a cam surface. The pawl has a second engagement section and is pivotable between an engaged position, with the second engagement section engaging the first engagement section, and a disengaged position, with the second engagement section spaced from the first engagement section. The headrest assembly further includes a first tab selectively engaging and guiding the pawl into the engaged position, and a second tab selectively engaging and guiding the pawl into the disengaged position as the moveable bracket moves between the first and second positions. The headrest assembly further includes a biasing member engaging the cam surface to continuously bias the pawl into both of the engaged and disengaged positions.

A head rest is provided that can secure backward view when it is not used, and enable adjustment of its front-and-rear position in use. A head rest is rotatable from a rearmost position to a stored position in which the head rest is tilted down forward. When the head rest is in a use range from the rearmost position to a forward adjustment limit position located in front, the tilting angle of the head rest is adjustable with in-use tilting-angle adjustment means, and the head rest can be rotated forward to the stored position and rotated backward to the rearmost position with unlock means. By contrast, when the head rest is in the stored position, forward rotation and backward rotation of the head rest are regulated with storage backward rotation regulating means, and the head rest can be rotated backward to the rearmost position with unlock means.

A head restraint assembly includes a base, a head restraint having a housing, and an internal cavity at least partially defined by the housing. Also included is a lock mechanism assembly disposed within the internal cavity, the lock mechanism assembly comprising a first lock member and a second lock member, the first lock member including a plurality of teeth and the second lock member including a single lock tooth, wherein the plurality of teeth and the single lock tooth are engageable with each other and selectively rotatable with respect to each other. Further included is an actuator arm engaged with the second lock member, actuation of the actuator arm required to selectively permit rotation of the second lock member relative to the first lock member in one direction, wherein disengagement of the plurality of teeth and the single lock tooth is not required to rotate in another direction.

A head restraint assembly includes a one-piece armature including a cross member having an offset portion. Also included is a ratcheting mechanism having a pivot plate directly and fixedly engaged with the offset portion of the cross member. Further included is a pivot pin extending through an aperture defined by the pivot plate and tangentially contacting a forward portion of the one-piece armature.

A head restraint allows adjustment of the angle of inclination of a support structure relative to a holding structure, in particular a holding bar.

A seat headrest having at least one side cushion, a base and a plurality of headrest connection points for use in conjunction with existing, standard car headrests. The seat headrest may have a first side cushion and a second side cushion to provide head and neck support by serving as headrests on the sides of a users head. The user may be any individual in a passenger vehicle.
