Vehicle seats

Abstract

The present invention provides a vehicle seat whose orientation can be changed according to the situation in which the occupant is positioned. [Solution] The system includes an actuator 30 that can change the orientation of the seat back cushion from left to right by moving at least a part of the seat, and a control device 100 that controls the actuator 30. The control device 100 has a driving posture support means 120 that controls the actuator 30 when the vehicle is turning to perform driving posture support control that orients the seat cushion in the direction of the turn. When the driving posture support means 120 performs driving posture support control, it makes the amount of change in the orientation of the seat cushion greater when the vehicle is in automatic driving mode where the vehicle automatically steers than the amount of change in the orientation of the seat cushion when the vehicle is in manual driving mode where the vehicle does not automatically steer.

Claims

[Claim 1] An actuator that can change the orientation of the seat back cushion from left to right by moving at least a part of the seat, The system comprises a control device for controlling the actuator, The control device has a driving posture support means that controls the actuator when the vehicle turns to perform driving posture support control that orients the seat surface in the direction of the turn, A vehicle seat characterized in that the driving posture support means is configured such that, when the driving posture support control is performed, the amount of change in the orientation of the seat surface when the vehicle is in an automatic driving mode in which the vehicle automatically steers is greater than the amount of change in the orientation of the seat surface when the vehicle is in a manual driving mode in which the vehicle does not automatically steer.
