A backrest adjuster () is provided for a seat. The seat includes a backrest () that can be adjusted relative to a seat part () by a fitting () and which is arranged in a longitudinally displaceable manner. When the backrest () is displaced from a seating position (P) to an entry position (P), a gear unit () actuates a tension element () that unlatches a rail adjuster () and latches same when the backrest () is displaced in the opposite position. A vehicle seat is provided that includes such a backrest adjuster ().

Backrest adjuster for a seat, and vehicle seat

A motor vehicle seat () includes a rear foot (), a backrest (), pivotable relative to the rear foot () about a backrest rotational axis (A), and a longitudinally adjusting seat rail pair (). A seat rail locking device () locks the seat rail pair (). A lockable fitting allows the backrest () to pivot into an easy-entry position for rear access. An annular drive element () is rotatably mounted about the backrest rotational axis (A). The drive element has a latch () that is caught by a driver (), arranged on the backrest (), when the backrest () is pivoted into the easy-entry position, whereby the backrest can subsequently be carried along. An actuation lever () acts on the latch () such that the latch () is not caught by the driver () when the backrest () is pivoted, and the backrest can be pivoted beyond the easy-entry position.

Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat () has an easy-entry module (). A backrest () is adjustable relative to a seat part () between at least one comfort position (P) and at least one easy-entry position (P). The backrest () is, together with the seat part (), arranged so as to be longitudinally displaceable by way of rails () along a movement travel (W) over a longitudinal adjustment range (L) at least between two seat positions (Sto S). To limit the movement travel (W), at least one switchable abutment () is provided in the region of the rails (). The backrest () is, at a predefined seat position (S), settable upright by way of the switchable abutment () from the easy-entry position (P) into the comfort position (P) and lockable to the seat part () in the predefined seat position (S).

Vehicle seat having an easy-entry module

A locking mechanism () for a vehicle seat includes a latch () that is to be interlocked with an opposite element (B) and is mounted to be pivotable about a first bearing bolt (), at least one securing element () that secures the latch () in the locked state, and a movable unlocking handle (). The unlocking handle () is directly hinged to one of the securing elements () by means of a single pivot point ().

Locking mechanism for a vehicle seat

A locking mechanism () for a vehicle seat, particularly for a motor vehicle seat, includes a latch that is to be interlocked with an opposite element (B) and is mounted to be pivotable about a first bearing bolt (), at least one securing element () that secures the latch () in the locked state, and a lock housing () which supports the latch () and the securing element (). The lock housing () has an integrated first stop () for the opposite element (B). The stop () has a damping effect when the opposite element (B) rests against the lock housing ().

A locking mechanism () for a vehicle seat, particularly for a motor vehicle seat, includes a latch () that is to be interlocked with an opposite element (B) and is mounted to be pivotable about a first bearing bolt (), and at least one securing element () that secures the latch () in the locked state. A cap () which rests on the latch () covers at least part of the edge of a hook opening of the latch ().

A lock () is provided for a vehicle, particularly for a vehicle seat that interacts with a counterelement (B) in the locked state. The lock includes a catch () pivotally supported about a first bearing pin (), having a holder () for the counterelement (B) and a functional surface (), and at least one securing element () pivotally supported about a second bearing pin (). The securing element interacts in the locked state, at least intermittently, with the functional surface () in order to secure the locked state of the lock (). The counterelement (B) approaches the functional surface (), the catch () having a contact lug () that comes into contact with the counterelement (B) approaching the functional surface () before the counterelement (B) can come into contact with the functional surface ().

Lock for a vehicle seat

In a fitting () for a vehicle seat, in particular a motor vehicle seat, having a first fitting part (), a second fitting part () that is pivotably mounted relative to the first fitting part () by way of a backrest bolt (), a locking pawl that is pivotably mounted on the first fitting part () by way of a pawl bolt () and that is interacting with the second fitting part () to lock the fitting (), and two braces () arranged on the outer side of the first fitting part () between the backrest bolt () and the pawl bolt (), the backrest bolt is additionally structure-fixedly supported on the first fitting part () and/or a structure part ().

Fitting for a vehicle seat

In the case of a head restraint () for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle, having a fixed first subassembly (), a moveable second subassembly (), and a drive (), which is normally retained by a locking unit (), moving the second subassembly () forward relative to the first subassembly (), the locking unit () has a clamping magnet.

Head restraint for a vehicle seat

A headrest ( ) for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, has a first assembly for contact with the occupant's head and a height-adjustable second assembly ( ). The first assembly ( ) moves forward relative to the second assembly ( ) in the event of a crash. A third assembly ( ) on the headrest ( ) is provided beneath the second assembly ( ). The first assembly ( ) moves upward relative to the third assembly ( ) in the event of a crash.
