Embodiment Construction

[0020] Hereinafter, embodiments of a coupling unit for adjustably mounting a support structure to a seat frame and an adjustment mechanism incorporating the coupling unit will be described. In the following description, as an exemplary support structure, a wire frame as already described in the introduction, ie a wire frame comprising two side wires and a transverse wire connecting said side wires, will be used. However, it should be appreciated that the present invention may also be used in conjunction with other types of support structures (eg, plate-like structures). Furthermore, as an exemplary pressure transmission element for applying pressure to the coupling unit, an element comprising a sleeve and a wire (for example a Bowden pull wire) extending inside the sleeve is used.

[0021] In Fig. 1 a first embodiment of a coupling unit 1 is shown. The coupling unit 1 is preferably made of a plastic material such as polyamide (especially PA 6.6) by molding or similar techniqu...

Abstract

A coupling unit (1) for adjustably mounting a support structure (6, 7) in a seat frame is provided, comprising first connecting means (2, 3) for connecting the support structure (6, 7) with the coupling unit (1) and second connecting means (4, 5) for connecting the coupling unit (1) with a pressure-transmitting element (8, 9) like a Bowden cable, wherein said second connecting means comprise a pressure area for receiving pressure from the pressure-transmitting element. Furthermore, an adjusting mechanism comprising the coupling unit with which a support structure may be adjusted in a seat frame is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a coupling unit for adjustably mounting a support structure in a seat frame and to a corresponding adjustment mechanism using said coupling unit. In particular, the invention relates to a coupling unit usable in conjunction with a support structure having a wire framework comprising two side wires and a plurality of And provide load-bearing support for the cushion installation of seats (such as vehicle seats). Background technique [0002] Support structures of the foregoing kind are well known in the art and can have a variety of configurations determined by the design of the seat in which the support structure will be mounted. Such a support structure is known from GB 2 342 287 A, for example. The support structure disclosed in this prior art document comprises a wire framework with two side wires which can be suspended in the seat frame and which extend between the side wires for a transverse wire that provides load-beari...
