A vehicle seat comprising a seat part, an adjustable backrest part attached to the seat part, and a floor assembly supporting the seat part and arranged on a vehicle floor. The seat part is connected to the floor assembly in a pivotal manner about a first axis, and the backrest part is connected to the seat part in a pivotal manner about a second axis. The vehicle seat has a first adjusting device powered by an electric motor for pivoting the seat part relative to the floor assembly about the first axis and a second adjusting device powered by an electric motor for pivoting the backrest part relative to the seat part about the second axis.

A seat assembly for use in a vehicle is repositionable between a design seating position, a folded position, and a slouch position. The seat assembly comprises a seatback fixedly coupled to a first recliner bracket, a seat cushion having a cushion bracket, a recliner pivotally connecting a second recliner bracket to the first recliner bracket, and a hockey stick assembly pivotally connected to the seatback and the first recliner bracket through the recliner and the second recliner bracket. The cushion bracket is pivotally connected to the hockey stick assembly and the second recliner bracket through a free pivot joint. The seat cushion is coupled to a track that is slidably coupled to a fixed track. The hockey stick assembly repositions the seatback between the design seating position and the slouch position as the track slides along the fixed track.

A defibrillation system may include a cardiac arrest detector detecting whether cardiac arrest of a passenger has occurred in a state of taking a seat of a self-driving vehicle and fastening a seatbelt of the vehicle; a passenger posture detection device detecting a posture of the passenger; a seat driving device changing the posture of the passenger into another posture in which the passenger lies down based on a detection signal of the passenger posture detection device when the cardiac arrest of the passenger occurs; a heart position detector configured to search for a position of a heart of the passenger; a defibrillation robot to perform a CPR method or a method using an AED on the heart of the passenger; and a controller controlling operation of the seat driving device, the heart position detector, and the defibrillation robot based on detection signals of the cardiac arrest detector and the passenger posture detection device.

A vehicle seat capable of exhibiting both performances of regulating an input of a load and reducing vibration is provided. One aspect of the present disclosure is a vehicle seat including a coupling structure coupling a first member and a second member. The coupling structure includes a bolt inserted through the first member and the second member, an auxiliary member arranged so as to hold the first member between the auxiliary member and the second member in an axial direction of the bolt, a first elastic element arranged between the first member and the second member in the axial direction, the first elastic element being in contact with the first member and the second member, and a second elastic element arranged between the first member and the auxiliary member in the axial direction, the second elastic element being in contact with the first member and the auxiliary member.

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.

Described are adjustable seats having a lower portion of a back rest attached to a seat frame having an upper frame and a lower frame. A pivot axis is positioned at an upper end of the lower portion of the back rest, and an upper portion of the back rest is pivotally attached to the pivot axis. The location of the pivot axis is configured to be positioned below a person's shoulders when the person is seated in the adjustable seat. The upper portion of the back rest is also pivotally adjustable relative to the lower portion of the back rest. A seat pan having a front portion pivotally coupled to a rear portion can be attached to the upper frame. An actuation mechanism is configured to simultaneously control a vertical height of the upper frame and a rotational position of the front portion of the seat pan.

The invention relates to a motor vehicle seat with a seat inclination adjustment device, with a first base element, a first seat frame element and a first actuator element, wherein the actuator element has a lower link arm connected to the base element via a lower link and movably arranged relative to the base element, an upper link arm connected to the lower link arm via a middle link and movably arranged relative to the lower link arm, wherein the upper link arm is connected to the seat frame element via an upper link and is arranged movably, and an inclination adjustment fitting with a first and a second fitting part, and wherein the inclination adjustment fitting is arranged on one of the links.
