An electropneumatic switch arrangement having an actuation device plurality of pneumatic outlets for connection to fluid-fillable devices, and a pneumatic supply connection for connection to a pressure source, the actuation device being connected to a sealing device, the actuation device being designed in such a way that, when it is actuated, it opens a predefined flow path between the supply connection and at least one of the outlets and, in doing so, closes a current path for actuating the pressure source, characterized in that the sealing device is mechanically coupled to the actuation device in such a way that at least a part of the sealing device is moved, in particular displaced, by the actuation device when this is actuated, thereby opening a flow path between the supply connection and at least one of the outlets.

An aircraft seat for an aircraft passenger compartment suite may include a primary section with an upper actuatable portion and a lower actuatable portion. The primary section may be configured to actuate between a primary upright position and a primary lie-flat position. The aircraft seat may include an auxiliary section including an auxiliary seatback portion coupled to a privacy shell element of the aircraft passenger compartment suite and an auxiliary seat base portion configured to actuate between an auxiliary upright position and an auxiliary lie-flat position. The auxiliary seatback portion may include an actuatable element. The actuatable element may be configured to actuate between an open position and a closed position. The actuatable element may be configured to provide access to a stowage compartment when the actuatable element is in the open position.

A seat for a motor vehicle, the seat comprising a backrest and a seating portion, the backrest being mounted to rotate relative to the seating portion about a substantially transverse axis, a hinge being provided for adjusting a tilt of the backrest relative to the seating portion about the substantially transverse axis, the seat being provided with a plurality of means for controlling a movement of the hinge, the seat further comprising an interface for controlling said movement of the hinge, the interface comprising a central portion and a peripheral portion, the peripheral portion being arranged around the central portion, the interface further comprising a plurality of recesses shaped to receive the plurality of means for controlling the movement of said hinge.

A vehicle seat including at least one outer frame on which an outer part of a seating surface is supported, and at least one inner frame on which an inner part of the seating surface is supported and which is movable relative to the outer frame.

An electronic control unit configured to control at least one motor used to reposition a seat assembly within an automotive vehicle. The electronic control unit comprises a mode manager configured to reposition the seat assembly from a first position to a second position and a performance evaluation module configured to monitor the repositioning of the seat assembly. The performance evaluation module detects and compensates for abrupt stops in the at least one motor.

A seat driving device for a seat including a first position adjusting mechanism and a second position adjusting mechanism, wherein a first clutch mechanism is configured to set an output shaft and an input shaft of the first clutch mechanism to be in a connection state regularly and to maintain the output shaft and the input shaft of the first clutch mechanism in the connection state as an first operation member corresponding to the first position adjusting mechanism is operated, and wherein a second clutch mechanism is configured to set an output shaft and an input shaft of the second clutch mechanism to be in a disconnection state regularly and to switch the output shaft and the input shaft of the second clutch mechanism to a connection state as a second operation member corresponding to the second position adjusting mechanism is operated.

A vehicle seat comprising a seatback pivoting relative to a frame around the first transverse axis, a seat cushion pivoting relative to the seatback around a second transverse axis, a link pivoting relative to the seat cushion around a third transverse axis, wherein the link is further pivoting relative to the frame around a fourth transverse axis, a mechanism for releasing the angular position of the seatback relative to the frame around the first transverse axis, and an actuator, attached under the seat cushion. The angular position of the seatback relative to the frame released, the actuator commands a movement of the link relative to the seat cushion and consequently of the seatback relative to the seat cushion, from a comfort position of the seat to a flat floor position.

A power transfer seat base includes a top fixed plate having a fixed stop attached to an upper surface thereof, a rotating plate mounted on the top fixed plate, the rotating plate having a rotating stop attached to a bottom surface thereof, and a user control interface box mounting bracket mounted on the rotating plate. An operating control having a rotation control switch and a directional control switch disposed on a user control interface box body that is mounted on the mounting bracket. The rotating plate is configured so that the rotating stop and the mounting bracket may be connected to the rotating plate at different positions. The power transfer seat also includes a mounting system that is configured to be connected to the base at different locations in a fore/aft direction and at different locations in a lateral direction.
