Reinforced track assembly for vehicle seat

A track assembly includes a first track having a first inner surface, a first support coupled to the first inner surface, a second track having a second inner surface, and a second support coupled to the second inner surface. The second track is slidably coupled to the first track. The first support has a first free end that extends from the first inner surface at a downward sloping angle. The second support has a second free end that extends from the second inner surface at an upward sloping angle. The first support and the second support are positioned such that the second free end is disposed above the first free end.

SEAT SLIDE DEVICE

A seat slide device includes a pair of sliders each including a fixed rail, a movable rail slidably guided by the fixed rail, a bracket on the movable rail configured so that front and rear sides swing opposite to each other in a vertical direction with a longitudinal-intermediate part as a fulcrum, a support bracket supported on the bracket via a hinge and configured to rotate in only one direction from a predetermined orientation about an lateral-direction axis relative to the bracket, a movement-restricting portion configured to restrict sliding of the movable rail while a rear part of the bracket is raised and to release the restriction while the rear part of the bracket is lowered; and a towel bar connecting each support bracket. The hinge part prohibits a rotation of the support bracket while the towel bar is lifted and permits the rotation while the towel bar is lowered.

VEHICLE SEAT

A vehicle seat including a slide lock mechanism which is configured to lock a locked part provided to a second rail side to a locking part provided to a first rail side or release the locking of the locked part and the locking part, and a walk-in mechanism including a shifting preparation mechanism part which is provided to the first rail side, a holding mechanism part which is provided to the second rail side and holds a locking released state of the slide lock mechanism, and a holding release mechanism part which is provided to the second rail side and shifts the locking released state of the slide lock mechanism to a state where the slide lock mechanism is capable of shifting to the locked state.

Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat of the present disclosure includes a seat cushion; a seatback; a sliding device; a first locking mechanism configured to restrict a sliding movement of a seat main body; a tip-up mechanism configured to rotationally displace the seat cushion upwardly from an occupiable position in conjunction with a frontward rotational movement of the seatback; a second locking mechanism configured to restrict a sliding movement of the seat main body when an elevation angle of the seat cushion exceeds a preset angle, and remove the restriction when the elevation angle is equal to or below a preset removal angle; and a first restrictor configured to restrict the elevation angle from being equal to or below the removal angle when the tip-up mechanism is activated.

Reinforced Track Assembly For Vehicle Seat

A track assembly includes a first track having a first support extending from a first surface of the first track. The first support includes a first curved end. The track assembly includes a second track slidably coupled to the first track. The second track includes a second support extending from a second surface of the second track. The second support includes a second curved end. The first support and the second support are positioned such that the second curved end interfaces with the first curved end.

REINFORCED TRACK ASSEMBLY FOR VEHICLE SEAT

A track assembly includes a first track having a first inner surface, a first support coupled to the first inner surface, a second track having a second inner surface, and a second support coupled to the second inner surface. The second track is slidably coupled to the first track. The first support has a first free end that extends from the first inner surface at a downward sloping angle. The second support has a second free end that extends from the second inner surface at an upward sloping angle. The first support and the second support are positioned such that the second free end is disposed above the first free end.

Adjusting device for a seat element of a vehicle seat

It is provided an adjusting device for a seat element of a vehicle seat, the strength structure of said seat element being connected to a guide device which substantially oriented in a first spatial direction and on which a support and a slide are arranged in a longitudinally adjustable manner relative to each other by means of a first drive device. A support lever which changes the contour of the seat element and which is hinged to the support and a toggle lever which is hinged to the slide and to the support lever via a connection joint are pivotable about axes which are oriented in a second spatial direction running perpendicularly to the first spatial direction and pivot on a plane defined by the first spatial direction and a third spatial direction running perpendicularly to the first and second spatial direction when the first drive device is actuated.

Track adjuster

A track adjuster includes a first pair of tracks, a first lockset that may be configured to selectively restrict movement of the first pair of tracks, a second pair of tracks, and a second lockset configured that may be configured to selectively restrict movement of the second pair of tracks. The first lockset may be a first type of lockset and the second lockset may be a second type of lockset. The first lockset may include a positive engagement locking lockset. The second lockset may include a pawl-type lockset.

VEHICLE SEAT

A vehicle seat of the present disclosure includes a seat cushion; a seatback; a sliding device; a first locking mechanism configured to restrict a sliding movement of a seat main body; a tip-up mechanism configured to rotationally displace the seat cushion upwardly from an occupiable position in conjunction with a frontward rotational movement of the seatback; a second locking mechanism configured to restrict a sliding movement of the seat main body when an elevation angle of the seat cushion exceeds a preset angle, and remove the restriction when the elevation angle is equal to or below a preset removal angle; and a first restrictor configured to restrict the elevation angle from being equal to or below the removal angle when the tip-up mechanism is activated.

Track adjuster

A track adjuster includes a pair of tracks, a lockset configured to selectively restrict movement of the pair of tracks, a first lever configured to actuate an actuator of the lockset, a second lever configured to actuate the first lever, and a spring configured to apply a first biasing force to the first lever in a first rotational direction and apply a second biasing force to the first lever in a second rotational direction. The spring may be a torsion spring that may be wrapped at least partially around a cross member connecting the pair of tracks with a second pair of tracks.
