A freestanding vehicle seat assembly includes: a seat having a seat portion connected to a back portion; a monopost attached at a bottom of the seat portion such that the seat rests only on the monopost; and a track assembly attached at a bottom of the monopost, the track assembly configured for providing fore and aft movement of the freestanding vehicle seat assembly. The freestanding vehicle seat assembly can have a pitch mechanism on the monopost configured for pitching at least part of the seat forward and rearward.

A vehicle shown herein is a side by side powersports vehicle having a utility bed recessed in the rear body portion below an upper surface, the utility bed forming a stepped portion relative to the rear body portion and having a maximum lateral width greater than a diameter of at least one of the wheels, and a minimum width less than a diameter of at least one of the wheels, whereby a spare wheel may be stored on the stepped portion of the utility bed. As shown herein, the utility bed is defined as a removable tub, which can be removed from the rear body portion. The utility bed has defined troughs in a floor thereof angled rearwardly wherein the utility bed has drains which drain away from any heat source of the vehicle. The seats of the vehicle allow longitudinal movement and tilt capability.

A vehicle seating assembly includes a seat, a seatback, a track assembly, a front anchor, a rear anchor, and a first gear. The seatback is coupled to the seat. The seatback is pivotable relative to the seat. The track assembly is configured to couple the seat to a floor of a vehicle. The rear anchor is coupled to the seat and configured to engage with the track assembly. The front anchor is coupled to the seat and configured to engage with the track assembly. A position of the seat relative to the front anchor and the second anchor is adjustable. The first gear extends between the front anchor and the seat. The first gear defines a guide slot therein that receives a guide pin. Movement of the first gear adjusts a position of a front region of the seat relative to a rear region of the seat.

Provided is an automatic pop-up device for a vehicle legrest having the following effects. A seatback reclining mechanism, a tilting mechanism, and a legrest deployment mechanism are formed as a simple integrated mechanism configured to adjust a relaxation position of a passenger, and the integrated mechanism allows the legrest to be automatically deployed when a reclining operation of a seatback and a tilting operation of a seat cushion are performed together, thereby reducing the number of components, costs, and weight. Additionally, provided is a single switch configured to adjust the relaxation position of the passenger, thereby improving the convenience of a switch operation of adjusting the relaxation position of the passenger.

Vehicle seat (1) having a seat part (2) and a backrest (3), wherein the supporting structure (44) of the seat part or the backrest, in particular the side part thereof, integrally has at least one spring element (40, 31) a pivot point (P) and/or a safety belt connection.

A vehicle seat arrangement has at least two seats, which are arranged next to one another in a transverse direction of the seat on a common seat bench, and a common seat backrest that can be inclined about a transverse axis. The common seat backrest is adjustable from an upright seating position into a resting or reclined position which is inclined towards the rear.

When reversing a direction in which an angle is adjusted by a first adjustment section and reversing a direction in which a posture is adjusted by a second adjustment section, a control section of a seat provides, before a timing at which a driving direction of a second driving section is reversed, a stop period for stopping the second adjustment section from adjusting the posture, and the control section causes the first adjustment section to carry out a preparation operation in advance during the stop period.

A vehicle seat device capable of suitably restraining an occupant by means of a seat belt device includes a seat main body having a seat cushion and a seat back, a reclining device connecting the seat back to the seat cushion so as to be pivotable and capable of locking a pivoting motion of the seat back, and a seat belt device for restraining an occupant seated on the seat main body. The seat belt device includes a lap belt restraining the occupant's lumbar or thighs, a belt anchor attached at a position beside the seat main body and having a belt engaging portion engaging with an engaged portion provided in a tip portion of the lap belt, and an anchor moving device capable of moving the belt engaging portion of the belt anchor in a seat front to back direction with respect to the seat main body.

A cushion tipping module is configured to be assembled between a seat cushion and a track assembly of a vehicle seat assembly. The cushion tipping module is configured to tip the seat cushion between an upright seating position and a rearward inclined position. The cushion tipping module includes opposing lift links fixedly coupled to distal ends of a transverse tube and configured to be operatively coupled to the seal cushion, an attachment link fixedly coupled to the transverse tube and pivotably coupled to a threaded nut, an electric motor operatively coupled to a lead screw meshingly engaged with the threaded nut, and motor mounting bracket configured to be assembled with the track assembly.

Provided is a seat having improved rigidity. The seat includes: a first side frame; a second side frame, a connection body; a base member; a first drive-side link; a second drive-side link, an actuator that generates a force for changing an angle between the first drive-side link and the second drive-side link; a first driven-side link that is fixed on the second side frame side of the connection body and rotates integrally with the connection body; a second driven-side link whose first end side is rotatably connected to a second end side of the first driven-side link and whose second end side is rotatably connected to a base member; and a transmission mechanism that mechanically transmits, when a force for rotating the second driven-side link about a connection part between the second driven-side link and the base member acts on the second driven-side link, the force to the connection body.
