The present disclosure provides a device for reclining a seatback for a vehicle, which may allow a separate actuator to be driven by a switching signal of a lever switch when a user operates the lever switch with only a small force such that a cable connected to a latch for locking or unlocking a recliner may be pulled in an unlock direction of the recliner, thereby implementing the reclining operation for adjusting an angle of the seatback in a semiautomatic manner.

A vehicle seat includes a back frame having opposing side members and side brackets pivotally connected to the opposing side members about a pivot axis such that the back frame is pivotal between a reclined position and a folded position. A spring-assist system is configured to urge pivoting of the back frame towards the folded position. The spring-assist system including a torsion rod spring extending between the side members at a location that is radially outboard of the pivot axis to generate an off-axis moment that urges the back frame towards the folded position.

A vehicle seat control device including a control unit that, in a case in which at least one user has declared in advance a desire to board a self-driving vehicle having a plurality of seats that are switchable between a first state in which a user is able to sit down, and a second state that impedes a user sitting down, switches a same number of seats as a number of the at least one user to the first state before the at least one user boards the vehicle.

A motorized standup utility vehicle having a removeable seat post assembly. The removeable seat post assembly is substantially cylindrical and has an “S” curvature shape and consists of a top post assembly and a bottom post assembly. The removeable seat post assembly has a pivotable seat on one end and male pin on the other end configured to removably attach to a receiving channel of a seat frame of the utility vehicle. The removable seat post assembly can be configured in a sitting position and a standing position to support the back of a rider.

A seat assembly having a seat bottom, a seat back, a seat track, and a rear mounting unit. The seat bottom may be pivotally mounted to the seat back. The seat back may be pivotally mounted to the rear mounting unit. The rear mounting unit may be moveably disposed on the seat track.

A vehicle seat in the present disclosure includes a seat cushion; a seatback; a sliding device configured to slidably support a seat main body that includes the seat cushion and the seatback; a first locking mechanism configured to restrict a sliding movement of the seat main body when the seat cushion and the seatback are placed in an occupiable state; a tip-up mechanism configured to rotationally displace the seat cushion in conjunction with a frontward tilting movement of the seatback; and 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 by an operation of the tip-up mechanism.

A vehicle seat configured to accommodate at least two users, comprising a base, and a seating portion frame comprising at least two seating areas, a first and a second backrest which are pivotally hinged to the base, wherein the seat further comprises a connection system connecting the first backrest to the seating portion frame, configured so that the pivoting of the first backrest relative to the base causes the simultaneous movement of the seating portion frame relative to the base, and wherein the second width portion of the seating portion frame is connected to the base, by means of a connection mechanism, configured to enable movement of the seating portion frame relative to the base during the movement of the seating portion frame relative to the base.

A vehicle seat includes a back frame having opposing side members and side brackets pivotally connected to the opposing side members about a pivot axis such that the back frame is pivotal between a reclined position and a folded position. A spring-assist system is configured to urge pivoting of the back frame towards the folded position. The spring-assist system including a torsion rod spring extending between the side members at a location that is radially outboard of the pivot axis to generate an off-axis moment that urges the back frame towards the folded position.

A seat adjustment first lever is adapted to be mounted to a first lateral end of a recline mechanism of a seatback. Rotation of the first lever about a pivot axis disengages the recline mechanism. The first lever includes a first lever input portion extending from the pivot axis for manual rotation of the first lever. A second lever input portion extends from the pivot axis and is sized to receive an input cable for actuation of the first lever from a remote location. A lever output portion extends from the pivot axis and is sized to receive an output cable to connect the first lever to a second lever on a second lateral end of the recline mechanism.

Disclosed is a seat for a vehicle configured to variously adjust a seat position between, for example, a full-flat mode, a relaxation mode, a cushion tip-up mode, a full-bed mode, a walk-in mode, and a rear-view mode using a first hinge shaft to rotate the entire seat, including a seatback and a seat cushion, and a second hinge shaft to rotate the seatback.
