Problems solved by technology

This creates the problem in a vehicle crash situation that movement of the seat relative to the vehicle due to compliance of the adjustment mechanism will cause the occupant of the seat to move relative to the vehicle during the crash situation
This further increases the load on the seat and creates more compliance in the seat and thus increases the movement of the seat relative to the vehicle

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Referring to the drawings, a vehicle seat for a motor vehicle includes a cushion portion 1 and a cushion portion 2 respectively having metal frames 3 and 4 supporting an interior trim 5 .

[0026] The seat cushion 1 and the back cushion 2 are pivotally connected together by a pivot 6, so that the inclination angle of the back cushion relative to the seat cushion 1 can be adjusted. A mechanism is provided to one side of the seat to adjust the inclination of the back cushion 2 .

[0027] The cushion frame 3 is mounted to a movable slide 8 by means of a height adjustment mechanism (typically 7). The movable slide 8 is slidably mounted on a fixed slide 9 which in turn is fixed to the vehicle floor. The moveable and fixed slide arrangement allows the seat to move fore and aft relative to the vehicle. A height adjustment mechanism provides movement in the height direction of the seat relative to the floor and roof of the vehicle.

[0028] The seat comprises a seat belt com...

Abstract

A vehicle seat having means (24) arranged to positively displace a part of the seat relative to either another part of the seat and / or a vehicle in which the seat is mounted, in the event that predetermined conditions corresponding to a vehicle impact are encountered. The seat may be displaced by an actuator trigger by an electronic control unit in dependence on conditions sensed by one or more vehicle impact sensors.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle seat, in particular, but not exclusively, to a motor vehicle seat. Background technique [0002] To enhance occupant comfort and safety, motor vehicle seats typically offer a full range of adjustment. These adjustments typically include: forward and rearward movement to enable adjustment of the position of the seat on the longitudinal axis of the vehicle; upward and downward movement to enable adjustment of the position of the seat on the vertical axis of the vehicle; and seat cushion The pivotal movement of the portion relative to the cushion portion enables adjustment of the inclination of the cushion relative to the seat. [0003] The mechanisms inherent in providing these adjustments impart a degree of reciprocation or compliance to the seat. This creates a problem in vehicle impact conditions in that movement of the seat relative to the vehicle due to the compliance of the adjustment mechanism will caus...
