A carrier for the partial seat cushion of a car seat, in particular a motor vehicle seat is disclosed. The carrier includes two side members which extend in the longitudinal direction of the seat and to which is hinged a longitudinal member of a leg support bearing the front portion of the partial seat cushion so as to pivot around an axis, extending in the transverse direction of the seat, and to be fixed into selectable swivel positions. A spring-loaded swiveling device is assigned to the leg support wherein said swiveling device exerts on the leg support a swivel force, which is smallest in the lowest swivel position and increases until the highest swivel position has been reached.

Cushion carrier for car seats

A seat for vehicles, especially commercial vehicles, of which the cushion support is mounted on a swinging frame with two identically configured pairs of levers which intersect and pivot with each other, has on each side of the swinging frame at least one fastening point for a seat belt system. Pivot connections combined with a guide for each one running longitudinally along the seat connect the rear terminal segments of the rocking levers with the lower part and the upper part of the swinging frame. The rocking levers extending from the upper part of the swinging frame obliquely forward and downward are embodied with a diminished carrying capacity as compared with the other rocking levers.

Vehicle seat, especially for commercial vehicles

In a back rest for a vehicle seat, the upholstery support is provided at least in one upper corner area in its front side with an opening to form a receptacle for a belt retraction device, which receptacle is open toward the front and closed at the rear by a back wall lying behind and spaced from the front side. An upper and a lower wall, which form the top and bottom of the receptacle, are connected with the front wall and/or the back wall and are spaced from each other so as to allow the receptacle to receive the belt retraction device without play. Form-fitting, overlapping restraining elements on the upper wall and the facing upper side of the belt retraction device, as well as on the back wall and the facing back side of the belt retraction device, together with a connecting element that engages the underside of the belt retraction device, secure the retraction device against being moved out of the receptacle.

Back rest for a vehicle seat

A hinge fitting for pivotably and selectively locking the back rest of a vehicle seat to the vehicle frame has two planetary gear sets, formed as mirror-images of one another. Both sets have the same reduction ratio and the eccentrics of the two planetary gear sets are rotated toward each other at most by a small angle.

Hinge fitting

An upholstery support for the back rest of a vehicle seat, particularly a motor vehicle seat, has two reinforced half-shells connected with each other along a portion of their edges. The half-shells form hollow box-like arms which distance themselves from each other from a hollow box-like joining area toward their free ends. The free ends of both arms form the lower end of the upholstery support, which has a V-like shape that is open toward the lower end.
