The invention relates to an arrangement in a passenger seat of a vehicle, preferably the back seat in a passenger car, for re-arranging said seat, including a seat cushion and a back cushion, the former being articulatedly connected via a link to the vehicle body and being arrangeable between a normal sitting position and a retracted substantially vertical loading position. The back cushion is pivotably connected to the vehicle body and arrangeable between a normal back support position and a swung-down substantially horizontal loading position. In their respective normal positions the rear end of the seat cushion is situated under the lower end of the back cushion. With the object of facilitating the movement of the seat cushion from sitting position to tipping position, especially for large thickness of the back cushion upholstery, the invention is substantially distinguished in that the link is pivotably attached to the seat cushion via a first joint and to the body via a second joint so that the first joint in the normal sitting position of the seat cushion is situated closer to the back cushion than the second joint and in that the first joint permits a substantially parallel displacement of the seat cushion from its normal sitting position to a tipping position, whereby the distance (d) between said positions is greater than a distance (a) between the rear end of the seat cushion and the lower forward edge of the back cushion in the normal sitting position of the seat cushion.

Arrangement in a vehicle seat

A safety headrest is via a holding means connected to the back support of a vehicle seat. The holding means allows the headrest to be adjusted in height relative to the seat. From a web portion on the headrest a forward and a rear leg portion extend downwards so as to embrace the top of the back support to the front and to the rear. In the lowermost position for the headrest said web portion rides on top of the back support. A frame structure of the headrest is connected to a bar slidable in the back support. In an embodiment said bar is adapted for travel under the action of a remote-controlled adjusting mechanism.

Safety headrest for a vehicle seat

A ventilation system for a vehicle is provided with a ventilation housing through which air from an outer air intake is fed to at least one air outlet opening in the vehicle passenger compartment. In the ventilation housing there is a fan which, when energized acts on the airflow through the ventilation housing. The ventilation housing is provided with an opening which allows insertion, in the transverse direction of a passage in the housing, of a filter unit, which can comprise a filter insert in a cassette and/or an evaporator in a cooling system.
