Benefits of technology

[0004] A particular object of the invention is to mitigate those drawbacks by proposing a vehicle seat back that enables the television monitor to be moved simply and effectively into the in-use position.

Problems solved by technology

That displacement mechanism thus requires the television monitor to be pivoted about two different axes in order to be brought into its in-use position, which complicates extracting it from the setback provided in the seat back.

[0023] In the various figures, like references designate elements that are identical or similar.

[0024] FIG. 1 shows a front seat 1 of a motor vehicle, which seat comprises a seat proper 2 extending between a front end 21 and a rear end 22, and a seat back 3 mounted to pivot on the rear end 22 of the seat proper 2. The seat back 3 extends substantially vertically between a bottom end 31 and a top end 32.

[0025] The seat back 3 also has a front face 33 which co-operates with the seat proper 2 to define a space for receiving the occupant of the front seat, and a rear face 34 having a top portion which receives a television monitor 4 and a pivotally mounted table 5.

[0026] In the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the top portion of the rear face 34 has a setback 35 defined by an end wall 35a, a bottom edge 35b and two side edges 35c which extend to the top end 32 of the seat back 3.

Abstract

A vehicle seat back provided with a television monitor mounted to pivot about an axis that is fixed relative to the seat back through an angular range of not less than 180° between firstly a folded-away position in which the monitor is received in the setback, the viewing screen of the monitor being disposed facing the rear face of the seat back, and secondly an in-use position in which the viewing screen is designed to face a user disposed facing the rear face of the seat back.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle seat back provided with a television monitor, and to a vehicle seat including such a seat back.[0002] More particularly, the invention relates to a vehicle seat back having a front face and a rear face provided with a setback for receiving a television monitor having a viewing screen, said rear face further being provided with a table mounted to pivot between a closed position and a deployed position.[0003] Such a seat back provided with a television monitor is described in Document JP 11-151986. That seat back is provided with a complex mechanism for moving the television monitor between a folded-away position and an in-use position in which the viewing screen is disposed facing an occupant sitting behind said seat back on a second row of seats of a vehicle. When the occupant wishes to view the screen of the television monitor, said occupant firstly brings the table into the deployed position, and then extracts the television monito...
