The invention relates to an airbag arrangement for a motor vehicle, with—an airbag (), the airbag () having a first cushion layer () and a second cushion layer () opposite to the first cushion layer (), and—at least one tether arrangement (), the tether arrangement being connected to the airbag () and being connectable with one end to the motor vehicle outside the airbag ().

Airbag arrangement

A vehicle seat console has at least one vehicle-side guide element and at least one seat-side guide element which is arranged parallel to the vehicle-side guide element. The vehicle seat console also has at least one longitudinal adjustment device which is acted upon by a drive device and is designed to produce a relative adjustment between the vehicle-side guide element and the seat-side guide element. A force-limiting device with a force-limiting element is provided between the longitudinal adjustment device and the vehicle-side guide element and/or between the longitudinal adjustment device and the seat-side guide element. The force-limiting element has a first deformation section which deforms under the effect of a force acting thereon above a specified force threshold. The force-limiting element has a second deformation section which is guided by a deflecting assembly.

Vehicle seat console

A vehicle seat console includes at least one vehicle-side guide element and at least one seat-side guide element arranged parallel to the vehicle-side guide element. A length-adjustment device, which is acted on by a drive device and which is designed to bring about a relative displacement between the vehicle-side guide element and the seat-side guide element, is designed such that the length-adjustment device is provided between the seat-side guide element and a force-limiting apparatus, which is in turn coupled to the vehicle-side guide element.

A vehicle seat of a motor vehicle has a side airbag provided on the vehicle seat, and a tension band assembly which includes a first tension band and a second tension band. The first tension band has an upper end and a lower end. The upper end of the first tension band is fixed in the region of the upper end of the backrest of the vehicle seat while the lower end is arranged in the region of the seat surface of the vehicle seat. The second tension band has an upper end and a lower end. The upper end of the second tension band is fixed in the region of the head support on the vehicle seat while the lower end is rigidly connected to the first tension band below the upper end of the first tension band. The tension band assembly is rigidly connected to the side airbag.

Airbag assembly for a vehicle seat of a motor vehicle

A vehicle seat has a lower seat part and a seat backrest. The seat backrest has a backrest structure, a central backrest section which has at least one backrest cushion and a backrest cover, and a left and a right backrest side wall. The seat backrest is provided with at least one expansion element which has at least one cavity that is enclosed by a membrane and can be filled with an expansion fluid from a fluid source. At least one respective fillable cavity of the at least one expansion element is integrated into the backrest cushion of the central backrest section or is provided between the backrest structure and the backrest cushion of the central backrest section to the left and the right of the backrest longitudinal central plane at a lateral distance thereto.

Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat console for a vehicle seat has a seat part and a backrest which is attached thereto and which can be moved out of a substantially upright seating position into a rest or reclined position. The vehicle seat console has at least one vehicle structure-side securing element which is connected or can be connected to a vehicle structure and a seat-side securing element which is connected to or can be connected to the vehicle seat. The seat-side securing element is coupled to the vehicle structure-side securing element via an asymmetrically acting height adjustment device such that the seat-side securing element can be tilted about a transverse axis.

Vehicle seat console, vehicle seat, and vehicle

An adjustment system for a seat has a first bearing shell for receiving a seat surface and/or a seat backrest, a second bearing shell for connecting to a substructure, a first wedge-shaped adjustment ring, which is rotatably mounted on the first bearing shell, a second wedge-shaped adjustment ring, which is rotatably mounted on the second bearing shell and rotatably mounted on the first adjustment ring, a first drive for rotating the first adjustment ring relative to the second adjustment ring, a second drive for rotating the second adjustment ring relative to the second bearing shell, and a blockade mechanism for electively connecting the first bearing shell and the second bearing shell for conjoint rotation.

Adjustment system for a seat

A vehicle steering assembly has a steering handle for steering a vehicle and a suspension part that can be secured to the vehicle. The steering handle is secured to the suspension part and it can be pivoted with respect to the suspension part about a pivot axis in a steering position and a table position, in which the steering handle can be used as a table.

Vehicle steering assembly

A vehicle seat console has at least one vehicle-side guide element and at least one seat-side guide element that is arranged parallel to the vehicle-side guide element. At least one longitudinal adjustment device that is acted upon by a drive device is designed to bring about a relative adjustment between the vehicle-side guide element and the seat-side guide element. The longitudinal adjustment device is provided with a toothed rack and a gearwheel that is in meshing engagement with the toothed rack. The teeth of the gearwheel and/or the teeth of at least one section of the toothed rack are made of materials of different shear strength.

A vehicle seat console has at least one vehicle-mounted guiding element, at least one seat-mounted guiding element that runs parallel to the vehicle-mounted guiding element, and a longitudinal adjustment mechanism on which a driving device acts via a transmission mechanism and which is designed to cause a relative adjustment between the vehicle-mounted guiding element and the seat-mounted guiding element. The vehicle seat console is characterized in that the longitudinal adjustment mechanism and/or the transmission mechanism is/are equipped with at least one energy absorption device which is configured to dampen abrupt relative movements between the vehicle-mounted guiding element and the seat-mounted guiding element.

An adjusting system is provided for a seat, in particular a motor vehicle seat. A longitudinal axis, in which a person sitting on the seat is facing, is defined for the seat, and a transverse axis running perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis and a height axis running perpendicularly to the transverse axis and the longitudinal axis are also defined. The adjusting system comprises at least one first bearing ring which can be connected to the seat, at least one second bearing ring which can be connected to a seat mounting, and a plurality of adjusting rings which are connected to one another in a sequential manner and which are arranged between the first bearing ring and the second bearing ring. The adjusting rings can be rotated relative to one another in order to pivot the seat selectively about the longitudinal axis, the transverse axis, and the height axis.
