Seat bench device with a seat bench component and at least one restraining unit

An energy absorbing system that is adapted for absorbing energy of an object in a vehicle in a crash situation by decreasing acceleration and force acting on the object in the crash situation, the energy absorbing system comprising at least one plastically deformable energy absorber that is plastically deformable in the crash situation. A mass-dependent self-adjusting mechanism is provided, the mass-dependent self-adjusting mechanism being adapted for adjusting, on the basis of an underlying mass of the object, a required compensation force that is to be provided by the energy absorbing system in the crash situation for plastically deforming the at least one plastically deformable energy absorber in order to decrease the acceleration and force acting on the object.
