A vehicle seat, including a seat underframe and a backrest mounted pivotably with respect to the seat underframe about a backrest pivot axis, the inclination of which backrest may be adjusted in a comfort range by pivoting about the backrest pivot axis by a fitting arrangement. The fitting arrangement is provided on a first of two longitudinal backrest sides of the backrest and a locking device is provided remote from the first longitudinal backrest side, which locking device is provided to lock the backrest so as to prevent pivoting about the backrest pivot axis beyond the comfort region in the event of a crash and which is coupled to the fitting arrangement to actuate the locking device when the backrest is actuated beyond the comfort region and to release a locking provided by the locking device by actuating the fitting arrangement.

Vehicle seat comprising fitting arrangement and locking device

A locking device for locking two assemblies of a vehicle seat together comprises a blocking element which has a supporting surface, and a locking element which is movable with respect to the blocking element, said locking element having an end face and facing the supporting surface of the blocking element with the end face in a locked position of the locking device, wherein the locking device is unlockable by moving the locking element. Additionally provided is a surface element which is applied to the blocking element to at least partially cover the supporting surface or to the locking element to at least partially cover the end face.

Locking device for a vehicle seat

A vehicle seat is provided. The vehicle seat comprising a seat member, a backrest member which is connected to the seat member so as to be able to be pivoted about a pivot axis, a first fitting which, when viewed along the pivot axis, is arranged at a first position on the seat member and a second fitting which, when viewed in the direction of the pivot axis, is arranged at a second position on the seat member for a pivotable connection of the backrest member with the seat member. The vehicle seat further comprising a third fitting which, when viewed along the pivot axis is arranged between the first fitting and the second fitting and which is spaced apart from the first fitting and the second fitting along the pivot axis.

Vehicle seat having a plurality of fittings

A joint includes at least one joint bushing and a joint bolt or pipe that is rotatably mounted with radial play in the joint bushing, forming an annular bearing gap. The joint has a play compensation element having several spring-loaded sections that engage in the annular bearing gap. The radii of the spring-loaded sections are shorter than the radius of the annular bearing gap. The spring-loaded sections project beyond a base body of the play compensation element at an acute angle to the joint axis. If the play compensation element is designed both to compensate the play and to axially secure the joint, it includes at least one clamping section, which is/are supported on the joint bolt and project(s) beyond the opposite side of the base body of the play compensation element to the spring-loaded sections. The play compensation element can be used in particular for joints of adjusting devices in motor vehicles.
