A seat, in particular an aircraft seat, having a seat support structure having at least one seat surface with a seat surface frame and a backrest with a backrest frame being pivotable relative to the seat surface, a base support element supporting the seat support structure, and a seat adjustment arrangement, which includes at least one coupling unit movable relative to the base support element, the coupling unit is configured to connect the seat surface frame and the backrest frame to one another and which is provided with at least one bearing element, and which includes at least one guide element in which the bearing element is movably guided. The seat adjustment arrangement being adapted to transfer the seat support structure into a sitting position, a comfort position or lying position by displacing the bearing element along the guide element.

Seat, in particular an aircraft seat

A release device for the upper rail and the lower rail of a longitudinal seat adjustment system of a motor vehicle seat, the release device having a lever rotatably supported on the upper rail of the seat. An end of the lever interacts with the locking means and optionally releases the locking means. A handle is provided at the other end. If the handle is operated, the lever moves relative to the upper rail from a passive position to a release position and moves the locking means from a locking position to a releasing position. So the release device automatically moves into a passive position of the release device, a spring element is provided, which preloads the lever into the passive position of the lever. The spring element additionally supports the lever on the upper rail.

Release device for the locking means of a seat rail

A longitudinally adjustable vehicle seat (I) has, on both sides, a first seat rail () fixed to the seat and a second seat rail () which guides the first seat rail and is fixed to the vehicle structure. A locking device () releaseably locks the seat longitudinal position by securing the first seat rail () in the second seat rail (). A lever () is provided that can be pivoted about a pivot axis (S) and has two actuating ends () that interact with the locking devices (). At least one of the actuating ends () is spanned by a sub region of a multifunctional part (). The part () both forms a kick plate and also limits the movement of the actuating end () upward and therefore forms a safeguard against erroneous operation of the lever ().

Longitudinally adjustable vehicle seat

A longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat () with a spindle (), which is arranged in a hollow space formed by a pair of rails (), and with spindle holders (). The area of connection of at least one of the spindle holders () to one of the rails () lies outside of the hollow space formed by the rails (). The spindle holder () extends with a partial area, with which it is connected to an end () of the spindle (), into the hollow space.

Longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat with spindle and spindle holder

A vehicle seat () is disclosed, particularly a commercial vehicle seat, with a seat base () which is designed as a scissors-type stand and is provided with intersecting rockers () and at least one frame () that movably guides at least one of the rockers () in the longitudinal direction (x) of the vehicle seat () by a bearing mechanism (). The bearing mechanism () features at least one compensating element that rests against a first guide (), at least some sections of which are inclined at an angle (a) relative to the transversal direction (y) of the vehicle seat (), and can be moved along the first guide () in the longitudinal direction (x). The bearing mechanism () further features at least one rotatably mounted wheel () which is supported on a second guide () and can be rolled along the second guide () in the longitudinal direction (x). A slider () which can be displaced along the first guide () is used as a compensating element.

Vehicle seat, particularly commercial vehicle seat

In a headrest () for a vehicle seat, having a carrier (), at least one upper and lower linkage () linked to the carrier (), which can be pivoted around horizontal axles (), a impact element () linked to the linkages () which forms at least one four-bar linkage () with the linkages () and the carrier (), and an energy storage device (), the energy storage device () driving the four-bar linkage () in the event of a crash, so that the impact element () comes out forward from an original position into a crash position that is locked against a backward movement by a crash lock, the upper linkage () and the lower linkage () are unparallel with respect to one another.
