Embodiment Construction

[0016] 【16】in figure 1 A headrest 1 attached to a backrest 2 of a rear seat of a vehicle is diagrammatically shown, wherein the backrest 2 is pivotable about a pivot 3 relative to a soft seat 4 of the rear seat. exist figure 1 , the normal working positions of the headrest 1 and the backrest 2 are shown in solid lines (see figure 1 working position shown in ). By operating the actuation device ( figure 1 not shown), the head restraint 1 can be folded down so that it can be moved from the working position to the non-working position (see figure 1 position b shown in , which is shown in dashed lines). In this rest position, the headrest 1 of the backrest 2 is folded forward and thus protrudes forward, so that a person cannot sit on the upholstery 4 of the corresponding vehicle seat. In this rest position of the head restraint 1 it is ensured that the head restraint 1 is no longer in the field of view of the driver sitting in the front seat and no longer obstructs his view. ...

Abstract

The invention concerns a head rest assembly, which has a head rest (1) that can be folded down and which is particularly suited for use with rear seats of vehicles so that by folding down the head rest (1), it can be ensured that the head rest (1) is moved out of the field of vision of the driver of the vehicle. The head rest arrangement is designed in such a manner that a complete folding down of the rear seat with the head rest (1) attached thereto is possible due to the fact that by means of a special mechanism (16-23), the head rest (1), when folding down the rear seat, can enter a gap between the rear seat and the corresponding front seat. In order to lock the head rest in its position of use (a), a locking mechanism (9) is employed, which is designed so that it can be easily disengaged by a user and enables a fixed arresting of the head rest in the position of use (a) in order to permit forces, even large ones occurring e.g. in the event of a collision, to be absorbed.

Description

technical field [0001] [1] The present invention relates to a headrest device with a pivotable headrest, whereby the headrest device is particularly suitable for installation in a rear seat of a vehicle, preferably a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] [2] The headrest is used in motor vehicles, not only for the front seat, but also more and more for the rear seat. In this case, it must be ensured that the individual head restraints can limit a predetermined minimum load in the range of 2000N, wherein such loads are particularly likely to occur in the event of a vehicle collision. This requires correspondingly secure locking of the head restraints in the respective vehicle seat. Conversely, however, problems arise when the head restraint is used in the rear seat, where it obstructs the driver's view of the car when it is actually unnecessary - especially if no one is sitting at all. When on the corresponding rear seat, because then the corresponding head restraint...
