Abstract
A headrest for vehicles, especially motor vehicles, is disclosed which comprises a hollow upholstery support mounted for limited pivotal movement on a holder comprising two shanks secured to a vehicle backrest. Stop elements for limiting the pivotal movement are provided for each shank of the holder and abut against the front wall of the support on opposite sides of the pivotal axis of the support. The upholstery support in one embodiment comprises a pair of shells or front and rear support elements made of plastic and having different strength characteristics. The front support element is designed to absorb the forces of the stop elements and the rear support element is designed to be deformable to provide improved safety for passengers seated behind the headrest.
