The invention relates to a device for influencing a backward movement of a seat, in particular a backrest part of the seat, with at least one deformation element arranged in a hinged area of the seating part of the seat, the deformation element being configured such that the deformation element can be deformed due to a force acting on the seating part and/or the back part at a predefined torque curve. The invention also relates to a seat, in particular a vehicle seat, comprising a seating part, a backrest part and the type of device.

Device for influencing a backward movement of a seat and seat

The invention relates to a device for influencing a backward movement of a seat (), in particular a backrest part () of the seat (), with at least one deformation element () arranged in a hinged area () of the seating part () of the seat (), the deformation element () being configured such that the deformation element can be deformed due to a force acting on the seating part () and/or the back part () at a predefined torque curve. The invention also relates to a seat (), in particular a vehicle seat, comprising a seating part (), a backrest part () and the type of device.

A locking unit (), for a vehicle seat (), includes a locking pawl () which is mounted so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis between an open position and a closed position and which has a retention contour () for securing a locking bolt () in the closed position. At least one claw (), offset in the axial direction with respect to the locking pawl (), is mounted so as to be pivotable about the same pivot axis. The claw () has a closure contour (). The locking pawl () can be pivoted from the open position to the closed position by the closure contour () being acted upon by the locking bolt ().

Locking unit for a vehicle seat, and vehicle seat

A locking unit () for a vehicle seat () includes a pawl () which is mounted pivotably about a pivot axis between an open position and a closed position and has a retaining contour () for securing a locking pin () in the closed position. At least one claw () is mounted pivotably about the same pivot axis in a manner offset in the axial direction with respect to the pawl (). The claw () has a closing contour (). The pawl () is pivotable from the open position into the closed position by the closing contour () being acted upon by the locking pin ().

A locking unit () for a vehicle seat () includes a housing with a side plate () which has at least one first mounting aperture (), and/or with a cover plate () which has at least one second mounting aperture (), and at least one mounting stud (). The first mounting aperture () and/or the second mounting aperture () are designed so that the mounting stud () can be placed in at least two different positions in the first mounting aperture () and/or in the second mounting aperture ().

A vehicle seat () includes a structural part () which has a lock connection plate () and a locking unit () which is fixed to the lock connection plate (). The locking unit () has at least one bearing bolt () with a passage opening (). The lock connection plate () also comprises at least one mating contour () which projects into the passage opening () in the at least one bearing bolt ().
