Armrest () comprising a base () and an arm () that can be moved by a mount () between at least one use position and a non-use position, wherein the arm () is movable by the mount () axially of a pivot axis (a) between a proximal and a distal position, and is pivotable about the pivot axis (a) between a primary and a secondary position, wherein the armrest () has an actuator () comprising a motor drive having a drive part () that is movable between a first and a second position in order to displace the arm () in a first direction (y) between the non-use position and the use position, at least in part, wherein the actuator () has at least one spring () that can be tensioned upon movement of the drive part () or an additional drive part () of the actuator (), wherein the arm () can be moved axially, in a second direction (y) by the spring (), which second direction is directed opposite the first direction (y).

Armrest

The invention relates primarily to an armrest with an arm support () pivotable about an axis (a) between an upper end position and a lower end position, with a locking mechanism () movable between a locked position and a released position, comprising first detent () on the arm support () and second detent () on a structure () with fixed position, wherein the first detent () and the second detent () are engaged when the locking mechanism () is in a locked position and are disengaged when the locking mechanism is in a released position. The special feature thereof consists in that at least a partial range of the movement of the locking mechanism () in at least one direction between the released position and the locked position takes place in damped manner by a damping element ().

Seat armrest and seat with armrest

The invention relates to a headrest, in particular for a vehicle seat, with a head contact part (), with a support () for mounting the headrest () on a fixed structure, with at least one parallelogrammatic linkage () between the head contact part () and the support () that carries the head contact part () for movement relative to the support () between a first position and a second position, wherein the parallelogrammatic linkage () comprises at least two links (), and each link () forms at least one pivot joint (GA, GA, GC, GC) with the support () and at least one pivot joint (GB, GB, GD, GD) with the head contact part (), with a latch (), with a first latch formation on the support () and a second latch formation on the head contact part (), wherein the first latch formation and the second latch formation are in engagement in a locked position and are disengaged in a release position. The special feature is that the first latch formation is fixed on the support () or that an upper region of at least one link () is provided with the first latch formation, and that the second latch formation is fixed on the head contact part ().

Headrest

The invention relates to a motor-vehicle accessory, comprising a first part and at least one second part pivotal about an axis (a) relative to the first part in at least one bearing assembly (), and the bearing assembly () comprises a bearing pin () on which a bearing sleeve () is coaxial to the bearing axis (a), and the bearing pin () forms a head () with an axial retaining face (). The particularity is that of the bearing pin () having first coupling formation that engages in a second coupling formation of the bearing sleeve () and prevents relative rotation in a pivot direction (u, u) between the bearing sleeve () and the bearing pin ().

Motor vehicle accessory such as an armrest

The invention relates to a vehicle seat, in particular a utility motor vehicle seat, having a seat part, having a backrest comprising a lower backrest part and an upper backrest part, and having a holding device, by means of which the upper backrest part is mounted displaceably with respect to the lower backrest part, the holding device comprising a guide roller device, by means of which the upper backrest part is arranged laterally displaceably with respect to the lower backrest part along a displacement curve so as to mount the upper backrest part displaceably at least in part past the side edge of the lower backrest part.

Vehicle seat and utility motor vehicle comprising a vehicle seat

The invention relates to an armrest for a vehicle seat, comprising an armrest body () that together with a base () forms a pivot joint and can be pivoted through a pivot angle (&#x3b1;) between a stowed position and a use position, wherein at least one damper () is provided to damp the motion of the armrest body (). The invention characterized in that the armrest () has a control device () that actuates the damper () within at least one portion (&#x3b2;, y) of the pivot angle.

Motor-vehicle armrest

The invention relates to an apparatus for continuous inclination adjustment of a component part of a vehicle, in particular a pivotable vehicle armrest, pivotable about a pivot axle. The apparatus is configured to lock various angles of inclination in a first pivoting direction and unlock them when a pre-settable angle of inclination is reached and/or exceeded. This allows the pivotable component part of the vehicle to be moved back into a starting position contrary to the first pivoting direction. The continuous inclination adjustment apparatus has a sleeve freewheel device for setting the continuous inclination, a coupling device for coupling and uncoupling the sleeve freewheel device and a control device for actuating the coupling device.

Apparatus for continuous inclination adjustment of a pivotable vehicle part

A motor-vehicle armrest has a base fixed on the vehicle and defining an axis and an armrest part pivotal on the base about the axis and having a first concave surface turned radially inward toward a second convex surface of the base. A wedge-shaped sprag is slidable between the surfaces generally angularly of the axis between a locking position in which the armrest part is arrested relative to the base and a release position in which pivoting of the armrest part with respect to the base is possible. The sprag has a first contact face cooperating with the first surface of the armrest part and a second nonparallel contact face cooperating with the second surface of the base. The sprag is biased into the locking position and can be moved into the release position.

Accessory for a motor-vehicle interior, in particular an armrest for a motor-vehicle seat

A vehicular arm has a fixed axle, an arm-rest body pivotable on the axle about its axis between a raised position and a lowered position, an abutment axially fixed on the axle and rotationally coupled to the arm-rest body, and a pusher rotationally fixed and axially shiftable on the axle. The abutment lies between the pusher and the arm-rest body. Coupling projections on the pusher and on the abutment extend toward each other and have mutually engaging faces lying in planes extending at an acute angle to the axis. A spring presses the pusher axially toward the abutment, such that, when the arm-rest body is pressed toward the lowered position with a force exceeding a predetermined limit, the faces cam the pusher axially away from the abutment and permit limited rotation of the abutment and arm-rest body on the axle.

A vehicular arm rest has a fixed axle carrying primary and secondary parts formed with meshing arrays of sawteeth angled to inhibit movement of the arm-rest body in a downward direction between a raised position and the lowered position but permit movement of the arm-rest body in the upward direction between the lowered position to the raised position. A spring braced between an abutment and the secondary part urging the secondary-part teeth into mesh with the primary-part teeth. Cam formations push the secondary part away from the primary part on pivoting of the primary part in the downward direction from the raised position of the arm-rest body toward the lowered position for decoupling the primary-part teeth from the secondary-part teeth and couple the primary-part teeth with the secondary-part teeth and prevent further movement in the downward direction on reaching the lowered position.
