A seat back assembly including a pultrusion reinforcement and a seat back frame formed of a resin material, the seat back frame is only partially overmolded onto the pultrusion reinforcement such that the pultrusion reinforcement is configured to be visually inspected through a plurality of openings formed in the seat back frame.

A seat for a vehicle includes a seat cushion and an adjustment and suspension device having a base fixed to the frame and a supporting plate fixed to the seat cushion movable in translation relative to the base in a direction of elevation. The seat also has a restraint system that includes: at least one restraint member fixed to the frame, the restraint member defining at least one through opening extending along a main direction of elongation substantially parallel to the direction of elevation; and at least one restraint element fixed to the supporting plate, the through opening of the restraint member receiving the restraint element free in translation along the main direction of elongation.

A vehicle includes: a partition that separates a driver cabin into which a driver climbs and a passenger cabin into which a passenger climbs and that is coupled to a roof and a floor; a driver's seat base member to which a driver's seat is fixed; and a side support member that is coupled to the partition and the driver's seat base member and partially located on a lateral side of the buttocks or the hips of the driver seated in the driver's seat. A shoulder anchor of a driver's seatbelt device and a shoulder anchor of a passenger's seatbelt device are fixed to the partition. A side support member restrains the driver from moving in a left-right direction and retains the driver in the driver's seat.

Vehicle seats that includes: a pair of seatbacks of front seats spaced apart in a vehicle width direction; and a pair of retaining portions provided at rear face sides of the pair of seatbacks, the pair of retaining portions configured to allow a rod-shaped member to span between the seatbacks, the rod-shaped member being grippable by a vehicle occupant sitting at a rear seat middle.

A longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat may have a first rail and a second rail. The rails may mutually engage around each other to form an inner channel. A spindle nut may be supported by the second rail and a spindle, operationally connected to the spindle nut, may be arranged in the inner channel. In one end region of the first rail, a screw drive driven by a motor and interacting with the spindle may be arranged. The screw drive may be enclosed by a housing. The housing may have at least one cylindrical bearing portion for bearing a worm wheel connected to the spindle. The housing may also at least one step adjoining the cylindrical bearing portion. The step may be designed to support the worm wheel in the event of a crash. A vehicle seat having the longitudinal adjuster is also provided.

A vehicle seat may have a seat substructure, at least one backrest, and a fastening arrangement for fastening the seat substructure to a base, in particular to a longitudinal adjuster. The seat substructure may have at least two side carriers and a transverse profile, in particular a front transverse tube, connected to the side carriers. The seat substructure may have at least one deformation element for limiting a force acting on the fastening arrangement, in particular a force introduced into the seat substructure via the transverse profile.

A seat system having a seat bottom and a cross beam. The seat bottom may include a support block, a cushion, and a trim cover. The cushion may be disposed on the support block. The trim cover may be disposed on the cushion. The cross beam that is disposed on the support block such that the cross beam does not extend through the seat bottom.

A multi-channel seat mounting wire retention bracket for a vehicle subjectable to an external force event and including a body structure and a seat having a seat mounting wire includes a body structure attachment portion and a wire retention portion. The body structure attachment portion is attachable to the body structure. The wire retention portion is configured to form a wire installation channel and a wire catch channel. The wire installation channel is configured to receive and retain the seat mounting wire when the seat is installed in the vehicle and to allow removal of the seat mounting wire when the seat is removed from the vehicle. The wire catch channel is configured to receive and retain the seat mounting wire during the external force event.

A vehicle includes a chassis and a seating system. The seating system includes a frame coupled to the chassis, a seat cushion supported by at least one of the frame and a floor of the vehicle, a first recoverable insert configured to provide a first energy attenuation response, and a second recoverable insert configured to provide a second energy attenuation response different than the first energy attenuation response. The seat cushion defines a cavity shaped to interchangeably receive either the first recoverable insert or the second recoverable insert to thereby selectively vary an energy attenuation provided by the seating system.

A fold-out component body (1), in particular an armrest of a vehicle seat, can be rotated about an axis of rotation (4) from a stowage position (9) into a usage position (10). In the event of an accident, the fold-out component (1) can be secured in the stowage position thereof by a locking element (2).
