The invention relates to a surface temperature-controlling device, in particular for use in vehicles, comprising a first air-distributing layer which has multiple air inlets extending through the first air-distributing layer and multiple air outlets extending through the first air-distributing layer, and a second air-distributing layer which fluidically connects air inlets and air outlets of the first air-distributing layer, wherein the air inlets are designed to introduce pre-heated or pre-cooled air into the second air-distributing layer, and the air outlets are designed to discharge air out of the second air-distributing layer.

An assembly includes a seat. The assembly includes an armrest adjacent the seat with the armrest being elongated along an axis. The assembly includes a bar supported by the armrest. The bar is translatable along the axis from a stowed position overlapping the armrest to a deployed position extended from the armrest. The bar is pivotable relative to the armrest in a seat-inboard direction from a non-pivoted position to a pivoted position. The assembly includes an airbag supported the bar. The airbag is inflatable from the bar to an inflated position when the bar is in the deployed position and the pivoted position.

The present disclosure provides a portable storage device. The portable storage device includes a stay unit mounted on a personal vehicle or a general vehicle, a storage unit, which is portable and is selectively mounted on the stay unit, and a coupling unit, which is disposed at the stay unit so as to couple the storage unit to the stay unit.

A seat mounted in the cabin of a vehicle has side supports for supporting the respective right and left lateral sides of the upper half body of an occupant. The seat also has a seat frame and a side support frame incorporated in the side support on the inner side in the vehicle width direction and secured on the seat frame. A console box is mounted adjacent to the seat, on the inner side of the seat in the vehicle width direction. The side support frame and the console box or the console frame are positioned so as to at least partially overlap each other in a side view.

A module trim element having a body defining an upper bearing surface, at least one first covering element defining a first upper bearing surface, mounted rotating about a first axis of rotation between a retracted position and at least one deployed position, and at least one second covering element defining a second upper bearing surface and mounted rotating about a second axis of rotation between a retracted position and at least one deployed position. The first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are substantially parallel and extend at different heights relative to the body, with at least one of the upper bearing surfaces being a flexible surface and at least another one of the upper bearing surfaces being a rigid surface.

A hinge having a center element, a first leaf element articulated on the center element and rotatable about a first axis, and a second leaf element articulated on the center element and rotatable about a second axis. The leaf elements have mounting elements for a leaf. The hinge has a mounting member to fasten the center element to an air passenger seat. In the mounted state of the hinge on the air passenger seat and in the arranged state of the leaves, the leaves are present such that they can be moved relative to the remaining air passenger seat. The first and the second axes are present on the hinge so as to extend in a bearing plane and so as to be spaced apart from one another.

An armrest has a base, a sliding part movable translationally relative to the base between a first end position and a second end position, and first and second guides on base. One of the guides has a first bearing and a second bearing at least one of which is pivotal in a respective bearing seat. The other guide has a first guide bar and a second guide bar spaced apart in a movement direction and movable jointly in the movement direction relative to the respective first and second bearings. The first guide bar extends in a straight line along a first longitudinal axis and the second guide bar in a straight line along a second longitudinal axis. The first longitudinal axis and/or the second longitudinal axis extends at an angle to a straight line extending through a center of the first bearing and a center of the second bearing.

A rest device for a vehicle, including a support and an element that adjustable relative to the support. In addition, a drive unit including a drive motor is provided, which can be activated for the motor-driven adjusting of the element relative to the support, the drive unit being designed such that the element can be adjusted relative to the support both manually and using a motor.

An assembly for a vehicle interior includes at least one armrest each presenting a receiving surface for the elbow and/or forearm of an occupant of the vehicle interior and a support for the armrest. Each armrest has a panel movable in translation relative to the support according to an elevation direction between a first position and a second position. For each armrest, the movable panel of that armrest includes an upper panel portion at least partially delimiting the receiving surface of that armrest extending in a first plane, and a side panel portion separate from the upper panel portion extending in a second plane, different from the first plane, the side panel portion having a heating element configured, when activated, to diffuse heat.

A vehicle proposed herein includes a swivel, a lock mechanism selectively locking and unlocking the swivel, a seat mounted on the swivel, a plurality of surface pressure sensors each disposed along an outer surface of the seat and detecting a pressure distribution within a predetermined area of the outer surface, and a controller configured to cause the lock mechanism to be unlocked based on a change in pressure distribution or a surface pressure that is detected by any of the plurality of surface pressure sensors.
