A vehicle seat has a seat cushion having a seating region. A first seating sensor is disposed at a central portion of the seating region and can detect a first seating position of an occupant. A second seating sensor is disposed at a peripheral portion of the seating region and can detect a second seating position of the occupant.

Vehicle seats

A vehicle seat has a seat cushion having a cushion pad deformable to be flexed when a seating load of an occupant is applied. A seating sensor is disposed within the seat cushion for detecting a seating position of the occupant. The seating sensor is configured as a push-in switch and can detect the seating position of the occupant when the seating sensor is pressed by the cushion pad. A fragile region is interleaved between the seating sensor and the cushion pad at a pressure receiving region where the pressing force is applied to the seating sensor. The fragile region has rigidity lower than the cushion pad.

An industrial vehicle includes an armrest and a plurality of operating members. The armrest extends in a front-and-rear direction of the vehicle. The operating members are arranged in front of the armrest. At least two of the operating members each have an operating portion. The operating portions are arranged along an operational orbit of an operator's hand in a state that the operator's arm is rested on the armrest.

Arrangement of operating portions for industrial vehicle

An industrial vehicle has an armrest. The armrest extends in a front-and-rear direction of the vehicle. A plurality of operating members for controlling a loading operation of the vehicle is arranged on a front side of the armrest. The operating members include a first operating member for controlling an actuator for loading and a second operating member for controlling the actuator. The first operating member and the second operating member are separately arranged.

Operating member and armrest for industrial vehicle

An industrial vehicle has a body, a hood and an armrest. The hood is installed on or above the body and has an end. The end is a pivotal axis around which the hood is pivoted so that the hood is opened and closed to the body. The armrest is installed on or above the hood. The armrest has a pivotal axis around which the armrest is pivoted relative to the hood. The armrest has a first position and a second position and is displaced between the first position and the second position.
