A headrest module for a motor vehicle seat includes a base component and a headrest mounted in the base component. The headrest is configured to be guided in a vehicle longitudinal direction so as to be extendable and retractable relative to the base component. The headrest further includes a fixing mechanism having a first fixing element with teeth and a second fixing element configured to be moved towards the first fixing element for engagement between adjacent teeth. Contact faces of the two fixing elements are configured such that an extension of the headrest is possible under the action of a force on the headrest in an extension direction. A movement of the headrest in a retraction direction is possible under action of a release mechanism of the headrest module configured to move the second fixing element out of the region between the teeth of the first fixing element.

A headrest assembly for use in a vehicle includes a housing having a front portion and a rear portion, the front portion slidably connected to the rear portion. The headrest assembly also includes an armature operatively coupling the rear portion to a seatback of an automobile seat. The headrest assembly further includes an adjustment mechanism permitting movement of the front portion with respect to the rear portion from a vertically non-adjusted position, wherein the front portion is generally vertically aligned with the rear portion, to a vertically adjusted position, wherein the front portion is moved vertically from the vertically non-adjusted position.

A headrest comprising a mounting part, a resting part comprising a frame mounted on the mounting part in a rotatable manner about a pivot axis between a forward most position and a rearward most position, a locking device comprising a control rod configured to be actuated by a user so as to move between a locked position in which the resting part is prevented from moving with respect to the mounting part and an adjustment position in which the resting part is allowed to move with respect to the mounting part, and an urging device configured to urge the resting part is towards the forward most position.

A turnover mechanism is disclosed. The turnover mechanism includes a bracket assembly, a rotatable cam, a cam resetting component, a locking pawl piece, a rotating shaft, and a rotating shaft resetting torsion spring. The cam is axially disposed on the bracket assembly. The cam resetting component is connected to the cam and the bracket assembly. The locking pawl piece is axially disposed on the bracket assembly. The cam drives the locking pawl piece to move between a locked state and an unlocked state through forward and reverse movements. The rotating shaft is axially disposed on the bracket assembly and is provided with a locking tooth plate. When the locking pawl piece is in the locked state, a locking pawl in the locking pawl piece and a locking groove on the locking tooth plate are locked and engaged, and the rotating shaft and the bracket assembly are restricted from relative rotation by the locking tooth plate. When the locking pawl piece is at an unlocked position, the locking pawl in the locking pawl piece and the locking groove on the locking tooth plate are unlocked and disengaged, and the rotating shaft and the bracket assembly are rotatable relatively. The rotating shaft resetting torsion spring is connected to the locking tooth plate and the bracket assembly. The rotating shaft resetting torsion spring drives the locking tooth plate and the rotating shaft to rotate relative to the bracket assembly.

A frame assembly for a vehicle seat includes a headrest frame including at least one support pole extending downwardly from the headrest frame and a seatback frame having a central body and a pair of outer brackets extending outwardly from the central body in spaced relationship to one another. A crossbar extends between and is rotatable relative to the pair of outer brackets. The at least one support pole is secured to the crossbar for facilitating concurrent rotation of the headrest frame with the crossbar. A locking mechanism is operably interconnected with the crossbar. An actuator is movable from a first actuator position to a second actuator position to engage the locking mechanism and move the locking mechanism from a locked condition to an unlocked condition. A slide shaft extends between the pair of outer brackets and supports the actuator during movement between the first and second actuator positions.
