The present invention relates to a head restraint assembly providing four-way adjustment and having dual positive stops as well as a single ergonomic control. The present invention includes a frame and a housing that engages a portion of the frame. The present invention further includes a cam assembly disposed within the housing to provide fore / aft adjustment of the housing relative to the frame. The cam assembly includes a camshaft and at least two drum assemblies supported by the camshaft. The cam assembly further includes a contact plate extending parallel to the camshaft to releasably engage the drum assemblies. The camshaft is connected to the contact plate to provide releasable engagement between the contact plate and the drum assemblies. The present invention further includes a control member to engage the cam assembly and provide for fore / aft and vertical adjustment in response to user input.

In certain embodiments, a mobile entertainment system includes a housing configured to be coupled with a mounting plate of a headrest. The housing can define a first hinge portion. In some embodiments, the system further includes a screen assembly. The screen assembly can define a second hinge portion that cooperates with the first hinge portion to pivotally couple the screen assembly with the housing such that the screen assembly can rotate relative to the housing. In some embodiments, the system further includes a retaining harness fixedly attached to the mounting plate at a first end and fixedly attached to the screen assembly at a second end. The retaining harness can be configured to limit rotation of the screen assembly relative to the housing. Optionally, in some embodiments, the system includes a headrest configured to be installed in a vehicle. The headrest can include a mounting plate.

The present invention relates to a process for the production of a trim cover and the cover of a trim interior itself.

The invention discloses a novel four-direction headrest. The four-direction headrest comprises a headrest housing, a U-shaped headrest rod, a Z-directional sliding fixing sleeve seat, an unlocking mechanism bracket, a clamping latch, a clamping latch return spring, an X-directional sliding fixing sleeve seat, an X-directional sliding guiding part, unlocking steel wires and an unlocking button; the Z-directional sliding fixing sleeve seat, the unlocking mechanism bracket and the U-shaped headrest rod are locked and unlocked through the unlocking wires; the clamping latch is driven by the unlocking steel wires to move to lock and unlock the clamping latch and the X-directional sliding guide part. According to the novel four-directional headrest, unlocking and locking mechanisms are simple, efficient and controllable.

A headrest support assembly capable of moving a headrest simultaneously in an up / down and fore / aft position. The headrest support assembly is located in a seat back and includes a headrest frame mounted on a support bracket, the support bracket includes a first and second guide track spaced apart from one another. Each guide track defines a substantially vertical first channel and a curved second channel therein. A first and second support pillar is mounted to the headrest frame. These first and second support pillars are located adjacent to the first and second guide track, respectively. A first and second guide roller is located on each of the first and second support pillars. The first guide roller is positioned within the first channel and the second guide roller is positioned within the second channel of the respective guide tracks.

A vehicle seat includes a base frame supported on a base, a seat cushion provided on the base frame, and a seat back, wherein the seat back is structured so that a plurality of seat back pieces are arranged in the up-and-down direction with a predetermined space; and the base frame or a lowermost seat back piece is attached with an attachment member that stands so as to be elastically deformed and be able to be twisted around an axis, and the plurality of seat back pieces are attached to the attachment member, respectively.

A headrest for vehicles including a stationary plate secured to the seat back of a vehicle; an attachment shaft supported by the stationary plate; a coil spring wound on the attachment shaft and having a fixed end and a free end with its inner diameter being smaller than the outer diameter of the attachment shaft; and a headrest base plate attached to the stationary plate so as to turn forward and rearward. The fixed end of the coil spring is fixed to the base plate so as to secure the attachment shaft to the base plate or the fixed end of the coil is fixed to the stationary plate so as to secure the attachment shaft to the base plate, and the winding direction of the coil spring is set in a direction that tightens the spring when the base plate is turned rearward, thus restricting this rearward turning.

A head rest of a vehicle seat may include a head support portion for supporting a head of a passenger, and a drive unit for moving the head support portion. The drive unit has a moving mechanism that is arranged and constructed to move the head support portion vertically and back and forth relative to the vehicle seat, a head detecting device provided to the head support portion so as to detect a clearance between the passenger head and the head support portion and to generate a control signal representative of the detected clearance, and a controller that can control the moving mechanism. The controller controls the moving mechanism so as to move the head support portion to a first proximity position in which the head detecting device may have a predetermined sensitivity relative to passenger head if the head support portion does not reach the first proximity position. The controller further controls the moving mechanism based on the control signal from the head detecting device so as to move the head support portion to a second proximity position which corresponds to an optimal proximity position relative to the passenger head.

Headrest-mounting-tubes are attached into the seatframe of an automotive seat. Headrest-posts engage the mounting-tubes, and support the headrest. The headrest-posts need to be orientated correctly, and so have a key that engages a keyway in the mounting-tube. The keyway is formed as a keyway-pocket, being punched from the open end of the tube. Preferably, the keyway-pocket is punched after the mounting-tube has been attached into the seatframe.

An eye mask for a person includes a forward portion adapted to cover the person's eyes and having a malleable nose bridge, and two side straps each fixed with the forward portion and terminating at strap ends each having at least one part of a first two-part mechanical fastener. At least one of the side straps may include a first part of a second two-part mechanical fastener for attachment to a seat retention strap adapted to encircle a portion of a seat. Other adjustable attachment means that include a plurality of different straps for encircling the seat or headrest of a seat are included for retaining the person's head against the seat. Each side strap may include a pocket formed therein for holding an ear plug.
