The invention relates to a structural element () of a motor vehicle, in particular of a motor vehicle seat, wherein the structural element () comprises a first component () and a second component (). In an overlap region (), the first component () and the second component () have a formed-closed connection, or a form-closed and form-closed connection, wherein the connection in the overlap region () can be produced by an electromagnetic pulse shaping method, wherein the first component comprises at least one form-closed molding (), wherein the second component can be molded into the at least one form-closed molding ().

Structural element for a motor vehicle

A vehicle seat includes a backrest and a seat part, at least one of which has a structural element with a cavity. At least one part of the cavity receives an insert in the region of a filling. The insert is connected to the structural element in a positively locking fashion at least with regard to one type of movement. The insert is bonded to the filling.

Structure for a vehicle seat

A vehicle seat back having a vehicle seat back frame and a method of producing the seat back frame can be used in multiple vehicles and includes a stamped first vertical frame member having a varying depth u-shaped and a roll formed second frame member having a constant depth u-shaped cross section and the first frame member is a common part used in multiple vehicles having a substantially constant height vehicle seat backs and the second frame member is cut to length used in multiple vehicles having different width vehicle seat backs.

Modular seat back

A vehicle seat includes a seat part and a partitioned back rest. The back rest has a first segment and a second segment. The segments are each equipped with an inclination adjuster. The adjusters include means for limiting the inclination of one segment relative to the other.

Vehicle seat comprising a partitioned back rest

A vehicle seat includes a backrest and a seat part, at least one of which has a structural element forming a cavity. A filling is disposed in the cavity and configured to influence the stability and/or the deformation behavior of the backrest and/or the seat part. The filling comprises a foam support and a foam material that at least partially surrounds the foam support.

A vehicle seat includes a backrest and a seat part, at least one of which has a structural element with a cavity. The cavity is formed by a base plate and at least two profiles secured to the base plate. A corner region of the two profiles has provided in it a filling configured to influence the stability and/or the deformation behavior of the backrest and/or the seat part. The filling has a foam support and a foam material at least partially surrounding the foam support.

A vehicle seat includes a structural element of a backrest. A through-loading opening is provided in the element. The element includes a metal plate with a reinforcing plate secured to it. A channel in the element is provided in at least some of its circumference or periphery. The channel is hollow and a reinforcing profile is inserted into the channel.
