Description

State of the art

[0001] A rotating device for a vehicle seat is already known in a variety of embodiments.

[0002] For example, motorhomes use vehicle seats that can be rotated using a swivel mechanism, allowing the seat to be used in a different position when the vehicle is stationary. This means, for instance, rotating the seat from a driving position facing forward to a stationary position facing away from the direction of travel.

[0003] Depending on the vehicle, various vehicle components or other vehicle fixtures can obstruct movement of the vehicle seat using the swivel mechanism. In particular, a handbrake lever, for example, regularly prevents such a swivel movement of the vehicle seat. Purpose and advantages of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide an alternative or improved rotating device such that a vehicle seat can be moved from a driving position to a stationary position and vice versa, particularly independently of the vehicle design of the vehicle in which the vehicle seat is arranged.

[0005] The problem is solved by the features of claim 1.

[0006] The dependent claims specify advantageous and expedient embodiments of the invention.

[0007] The invention relates to a rotating device for a vehicle seat. The essential aspects of the invention are that the rotating device has a mounting plate for attaching it to a vehicle, the rotating device has a turntable, the rotating device has a rotary unit, the turntable is rotatably mounted relative to the mounting plate by the rotary unit, a joint unit is arranged on the turntable, a sliding unit is arranged on the joint unit, the vehicle seat can be attached to the sliding unit, and the sliding unit is pivotable relative to the turntable about a pivot axis of the joint unit by means of the joint unit.This provides a comparatively larger range of motion for a vehicle seat mounted on the rotating device, in order to be able to move the vehicle seat from a driving position to a stationary position when mounted on the vehicle.

[0008] For example, the mounting plate is adapted to known mounting structures in the vehicle, making it particularly flexible and easy to install in various vehicles. Furthermore, the rotating unit could incorporate bearing elements, such as ball, roller, or plain bearings, to allow the turntable to rotate around the axis of rotation relative to the mounting plate.

[0009] It is also conceivable that the turntable is designed as a plate or a disc. For example, the turntable could be plate-shaped or plate-shaped. However, it is also possible that the turntable is designed in the form of a frame. For example, the turntable could have a recess.

[0010] For example, the sliding unit has fastening means, such as drill holes, screws, or pins, to mount the vehicle seat to the sliding unit. The sliding unit is, for example, linearly movable. It is conceivable that the sliding unit has rails. It is also conceivable that each rail has a fixed rail element, which is attached to the joint unit, and a guide rail element, which is linearly movable in one direction of movement on the fixed rail element. It is conceivable that the sliding unit has exactly two rails. For example, the fastening means are formed on the guide rail element.

[0011] It is also conceivable that the fixed rail element(s) are mounted on a fixed rail platform of the sliding unit. The fixed rail platform could be designed as a plate or in a plate-like shape. Furthermore, it is conceivable that the guide rail element(s) are mounted on a guide rail platform of the sliding unit. The guide rail platform could again be designed as a plate or in a plate-like shape. This results in a comparatively compact sliding unit and facilitates assembly. For example, the rails are connected directly to the joint unit or via the fixed rail platform. The guide rail platform could, for instance, have mounting elements for attaching the vehicle seat to it. These mounting elements could be a hole, a threaded stud, or a bolt.

[0012] It is further proposed that the pivot axis be aligned transversely to a rotation axis of the rotary unit. This makes movement of the sliding unit possible in a vertical direction.

[0013] For example, the axis of rotation of the rotary unit, when installed in the vehicle, is located transversely to one direction of travel. Similarly, the pivot axis of the articulated unit, when installed in the vehicle, particularly in the driving position, is located transversely to one direction of travel. It is also conceivable that the axis of rotation of the rotary unit extends parallel to or along the vertical.

[0014] It is also conceivable that the joint unit has a pivoting element. For example, the joint unit has two pivoting elements. It is conceivable that the joint unit has exactly two pivoting elements. It is conceivable that the two pivoting elements are spaced apart from each other on the rotary device. For example, a pivoting element has a first and a second pivot lever and a joint, with the joint connecting the first and second pivot levers. With more than one pivoting element, it is further conceivable that the pivot axes of the joints of the pivot levers coincide and / or are connected to each other by means of a pivot shaft. For example, the joint unit has a single pivot axis.

[0015] It is also conceivable that the first pivot lever of the swivel element is connected to the turntable and the second pivot lever to the sliding unit, e.g., to a fixed rail element or the fixed rail platform. This allows the sliding unit to pivot about the pivot axis of the joint of the joint unit or about the pivot axis of the joint unit relative to the turntable.

[0016] It is also proposed that the rotary device include a locking element by means of which the sliding unit can be fixed in position relative to the turntable. This provides a convenient feature.

[0017] For example, the locking element is designed such that the sliding unit can be fixed in a rotationally fixed position relative to the turntable about the pivot axis of the joint unit. For example, the locking element locks the sliding unit in a position relative to the turntable about the pivot axis of the joint unit, but can be released.

[0018] For example, the locking element has a catch element. For example, the catch element is formed on a first locking element of the locking element. It is conceivable that the locking element has a second locking element on which a driver is arranged. It is further conceivable that the catch element is designed to capture the driver and fix the driver in the locked state of the locking element and / or in a locked position of the catch element. It is also conceivable that the locking element has a blocking element to block movement of the catch element in an unlocked position, so that the catch element cannot capture and fix the driver. It is also conceivable that movement of the blocking element can release the catch element from a locked position to the unlocked position.It is also conceivable that by moving the blocking element, e.g. in the opposite direction, the catch element can be moved from the unlocking position to the locking position.

[0019] For example, the first locking element is attached to the rotary table. It is also conceivable that the second locking element is attached to the sliding unit. For example, the second locking element is attached to the fixed rail element or the fixed rail platform. For example, the locking element is arranged at a distance from the joint unit on the rotary device. It is also conceivable that the locking element is located at a distance from the joint unit in the sliding direction of the sliding unit.

[0020] For example, a displacement range of the displacement unit is configured depending on the rotational position of the turntable. For example, a locking mechanism is present which prevents displacement of the displacement unit depending on the rotational position of the turntable. For example, several displacement ranges are present on the displacement unit, which can be defined by the rotational position of the turntable. For example, the displacement ranges are configured on the fixed rail platform. It is conceivable that a displacement range is present as a recess on the fixed rail platform.

[0021] It is also proposed that the sliding unit provides a direction of movement for shifting a vehicle seat mounted on the rotating device, with the pivot axis of the joint unit being designed transverse to the direction of movement. This advantageously provides an additional degree of freedom for the rotating device. For example, the sliding unit provides a direction of movement for shifting a vehicle seat mounted on the rotating device relative to the mounting plate.

[0022] For example, the pivot axis of the joint unit is horizontally oriented. For example, the axis of rotation of the rotary unit and / or the pivot axis of the joint unit is arranged transversely, e.g., perpendicularly, to the direction of movement of the sliding unit. For example, the axis of rotation of the rotary unit and / or the pivot axis of the joint unit extends in a direction transversely, e.g., perpendicularly, to the direction of movement of the sliding unit. For example, the direction of movement of the sliding unit is horizontally oriented in the driving position.

[0023] It is also proposed that the joint unit incorporates a spring element, whereby the sliding unit is subjected to force by means of the spring force of the spring element. For example, the sliding unit is subjected to force relative to the rotary unit and / or the mounting plate by means of the spring element. This makes movement of the vehicle seat around the pivot axis of the joint unit relatively easy to achieve.

[0024] For example, the spring element can be designed as a coil spring, compression spring, or torsion spring. It is conceivable that the joint unit has two spring elements. For example, the spring element can be attached to a pivot element. For instance, the spring element can be attached to the joint of the pivot element. For example, the first pivot lever is subjected to force by the spring element in relation to the second pivot lever of the pivot element.

[0025] It is also proposed that a tension band be provided, with one end of the tension band fixed to the turntable and the other end fixed to the sliding unit, such that the tension band limits movement of the sliding unit relative to the turntable. This advantageously limits pivoting movement of the sliding unit relative to the turntable and / or the mounting plate by the spring force of the spring element.

[0026] It is conceivable that the pull cord could be designed as a chain, a strap, or a band, for example, as a retaining strap. This makes it comparatively inexpensive to design. For example, the pull cord could be attached at one end to the turntable or a first pivot lever, and at the other end to the fixed rail, the fixed rail platform, or a second pivot lever of the articulated unit. It is conceivable that the pull cord could be screwed or riveted to one of these elements at both ends. For example, the pull cord could extend from one end to the other along a longitudinal axis. Alternatively, the first and second ends of the pull cord could be spaced apart from each other.

[0027] For example, the tension band limits the pivoting movement of the sliding unit from a first position relative to the rotary unit to a second position relative to the rotary unit around the pivot axis of the joint unit. It is conceivable that in the second position, the sliding unit is subjected to force by the spring element, so that in the second position of the sliding unit, the tension band is subjected to force by the spring force of the spring element. For example, the tension band is extended in the second position of the sliding unit. For example, the tension band is arranged on the rotary device in such a way that it can counteract the spring force of the spring element.

[0028] It is conceivable that the sliding unit can be locked in the first position relative to the rotary table by means of the locking element. For example, the sliding unit is held in the first position by the spring force of the spring element, whereas in the locked position of the sliding unit, the locking element counteracts the spring force of the spring element.

[0029] For example, the tension band limits the pivoting movement of the sliding unit around the pivot axis of the joint unit to a specific range. For example, the pivoting range is limited by an angular range between 0° and 45°, or by an angular range between 0° and 30°, or by an angular range between 0° and 20°. For example, the pivot angle of the sliding unit in the locked position is 0°. For example, the pivot angle in the state limited by the tension band is 20°, 30°, or 45°.

[0030] It is also proposed that the rotary device have a release lever, whereby actuation of the release lever enables rotation of the turntable relative to the mounting plate, and simultaneously releases the locking mechanism of the sliding unit. This makes the rotary device comparatively easy to operate. However, it is also conceivable that two levers are present, one of which is designed to release the rotation of the turntable, and the other of which is designed to release the locking mechanism of the sliding unit, thus enabling its movement around the axis of rotation of the joint unit.

[0031] For example, the release lever is connected to the locking element. It is conceivable that the release lever incorporates the locking element. It is also conceivable that the release lever is connected to the blocking element. This simplifies the operation of the rotary device. For example, this allows the locking mechanism to be released, enabling pivoting around the pivot axis of the joint unit, as well as simultaneous rotation of the sliding unit around the axis of rotation of the rotary unit.

[0032] It is also conceivable that the locking element is integrated into the rotary table. For example, the locking element could be a guide contour. This guide contour could limit the movement of the release lever. For instance, the release lever could be coupled to the catch element. This would allow, for example, the locking position of the catch element to be released by moving the release lever. However, it is also conceivable that this coupling with the release lever could block the locking of the catch element, preventing it from locking the driver.

[0033] For example, a displacement range of the displacement unit is defined depending on the rotational position of the turntable. For example, a locking mechanism is present that prevents displacement of the displacement unit depending on the rotational position of the turntable. For example, several displacement ranges are present on the displacement unit, which can be defined by the rotational position of the turntable. For example, the release lever is part of the locking mechanism. For example, the release lever can engage in a guide of the displacement unit, so that a movement, e.g., a linear movement, of the displacement unit is blocked.

[0034] It is also proposed that the rotary device be designed such that the sliding unit can only be locked in two different positions relative to the turntable using the locking element. For example, the sliding unit can only be locked in three or four different positions relative to the turntable using the locking element. This provides the operator of the rotary device with haptic feedback that the rotary device, and in particular a vehicle seat mounted on the rotary device, is in a defined rotational position of the turntable relative to the mounting plate. For example, a defined rotational position is the driving position or the stationary position. The rotary device is also designed such that movement of the sliding unit is blocked outside of the defined rotational positions.

[0035] For example, the turntable is designed such that the sliding unit can only be locked in two different positions relative to the turntable by means of the locking element. For example, the turntable is designed such that the rotating unit can only be locked in two different positions.

[0036] For example, the rotation of the rotary device about the axis of rotation of the rotary unit can be locked and / or unlocked by means of the release lever. For example, the rotary unit is designed such that the rotation of the rotary device about the axis of rotation of the rotary unit can only be locked in two different positions.

[0037] For example, by connecting the release lever to the locking element, the locking element can be used to block the catch. This allows the sliding unit to be locked relative to the turntable only in selected areas. For instance, the rotary device is designed to allow the sliding unit to be locked by the locking element in the travel position and in another position rotated relative to the travel position.

[0038] An exemplary embodiment of the invention is a vehicle seat with a rotating device according to one of the aforementioned embodiments, wherein the vehicle seat is attached to the sliding unit.

[0039] The vehicle seat can be a driver's or passenger's seat and is typically located in the front of the vehicle. It is also possible for the vehicle seat to be located in the rear. The vehicle seat could, for example, be a single seat.

[0040] Another exemplary embodiment of the invention is a vehicle with a rotating device or a vehicle seat according to one of the aforementioned embodiments.

[0041] A vehicle in which the vehicle seat can be positioned is, for example, an automobile. This automobile might be configured as a van, a motorhome, a campervan, and / or a caravan. The vehicle might have a handbrake and / or a parking brake. It is conceivable that the handbrake and / or the parking brake could be cable-operated. It is also conceivable that the handbrake and / or the parking brake, particularly the brake lever, might prevent the vehicle seat from rotating around the pivot axis of the swivel mechanism and block it. Furthermore, it is conceivable that a pivoting movement of the vehicle seat around the pivot axis of the joint unit could allow the vehicle seat to rotate around the pivot axis, thus enabling the vehicle seat to be pivoted past the handbrake and / or the parking brake.

[0042] It is also conceivable that the backrest of the vehicle seat, when in the driving position, is tilted in a way that opposes the direction of travel, thus blocking, for example, a simple rotation of the seat by the vehicle or its components. For instance, the backrest might come into contact with the vehicle, such as the B-pillar, or other vehicle components when the seat is rotated. Therefore, it is suggested that the backrest be folded down towards the seat cushion before rotating the vehicle seat.

[0043] Furthermore, a method for moving the vehicle seat is proposed, wherein the method is carried out with a vehicle seat and a rotating device as previously proposed, wherein the method comprises the following process steps: - Folding down one of the vehicle seat backrests in the direction of travel of the vehicle - Moving the vehicle seat in the direction of travel of the vehicle using the sliding unit - Releasing the locking element - Swiveling the vehicle seat together with the sliding unit around the swivel axis of the joint unit - Rotating the turntable with sliding unit and vehicle seat relative to the mounting plate around the axis of rotation of the rotating unit - Swiveling the vehicle seat with sliding unit around the swivel axis of the joint unit - Locking the locking element - Folding the backrest of the vehicle seat in the direction of travel of the vehicle - Moving the vehicle seat in the direction of travel of the vehicle using the sliding unit

[0044] It is conceivable that the process is carried out in exactly the aforementioned order. However, it is also conceivable that the first two process steps (moving and folding) occur in reverse order or simultaneously. It is also possible that individual process steps occur at the same time or are carried out in a reversed order. Character description

[0045] Further features and advantages of the invention are explained in more detail with reference to schematically shown embodiments.

A top view of the rotary device, wherein parts of the rotary device are shown transparent, in an unlocked position of the locking element, Fig. 7 a top view of the rotary device, wherein parts of the rotary device are shown transparent, in an unlocked position of the locking element and in a partially rotated position of a fixed rail platform, Fig. 8 A top view of the rotary device, wherein parts of the rotary device are shown transparent, in a locked position of the locking element, wherein a fixed rail platform is shown in relation to the Fig. 5 is available rotated by 180°, Fig. Figures 9 to 12 show a side view of a rotating device with a vehicle seat attached to it in a vehicle in different movement positions.

[0047] Fig. Figure 1 shows a rotating device 1 with a vehicle seat 2 arranged thereon, wherein a backrest 3 of the vehicle seat 2 is shown in a driving position and, in a dashed line, in a folded-down position. In the folded-down position of the backrest 3, it is folded down or pivoted towards a seat surface 4 of the vehicle (dashed line in Figure 1). Fig. 1).

[0048] The rotary device 1 comprises a mounting plate 5, a rotary unit 6, a turntable 7, a joint unit 8, and a sliding unit 9. A release lever 10 is pivotably arranged on the turntable 7. Fig. Figure 1 also shows a locking element 13, by means of which a fixed rail platform 11 of the sliding unit 9 can be locked to the rotary table 7. A rail 12 of the sliding unit 9 is attached to the fixed rail platform 11. Fig. 1 the vehicle seat 2 is pivoted about a pivot axis S of the joint unit 8.

[0049] In Fig. 2 is the rotary device 1 according to Fig. 1 shown, where in Fig. 2 only the fixed rail platform 11 of the sliding unit 9 is shown, and the remaining elements of the sliding unit 9 and the vehicle seat 2 are not shown. In Fig. Figure 2 shows the rotary device in a driving position in which the fixed rail platform 11 is in a position locked by the locking element 13.

[0050] In Fig. Figure 2 shows the joint unit 8, which has two pivot elements 14. For example, each pivot element 14 has a first pivot lever 15 and a second pivot lever 16. The first pivot lever 15 is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis S of the joint unit 8 relative to the second pivot lever 16. For example, the first and second pivot lever 15, 16 are subjected to force by a spring element 17 of the joint unit 8.

[0051] It is conceivable that the first pivot levers 15 are connected to each other by means of the turntable 7. It is also conceivable that the first pivot levers 15 are attached to the turntable 7 or are integrally present on the turntable 7. It is also conceivable that the second pivot levers 16 are connected to each other by means of the fixed rail platform 11. For example, the second pivot levers 16 are attached to the fixed rail platform 11 or are integrally present on the fixed rail platform 11.

[0052] In Fig. 3 is the one in Fig. Figure 2 shows the rotary device 1 in an unlocked position. By moving the unlocking lever 10, the locking element 13 can be actuated, thus releasing the locking mechanism of the fixed rail platform 11. Due to the force exerted on the second pivot lever 16 by the spring force of the spring element 17, the fixed rail platform 11 is pivoted by an angle α about the pivot axis S of the joint unit 8. The pivot angle is limited by a tension band 18, which opposes the spring force of the spring element 17. For example, the tension band 18 is attached at one end to the rotary table 7 and at the other end to the fixed rail platform 11.

[0053] Actuating the release lever 10 not only releases the locking mechanism of the locking element 13, but also, for example, simultaneously enables a rotational movement of the turntable 7 about a rotational axis D of the rotary unit 6. This allows the turntable 7, with any elements attached to it, to rotate about the rotational axis D. Fig. Figure 4 shows a position of the rotary device 1 in which the turntable 7 is rotated about the axis of rotation D. The in Fig. The position of the rotary device 1 shown in Figure 4 corresponds, for example, to a standstill position when installed on the vehicle.

[0054] In the Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 is the rotary device 1 according to Fig. Figure 2 shows a top view, with the fixed rail platform 11 shown transparently. Fig. 5 here is the locking element 13 in a locked position and in Fig. 6 shown in an unlocked position.

[0055] The locking element 13, for example, has a first locking element in the form of a catch element 19 and a driver 20. The driver 20 is, for example, attached to the fixed rail platform 11. The catch element 19 is, for example, mounted on the turntable 7. For example, the catch element 19 is a movable snap element that engages the driver 20 in the locked position. For example, movement of the catch element 19 is blocked in the locked position.

[0056] A movement of the release lever 10 in the direction of travel F releases the locking element 19, causing the spring force of the spring element 17 to release the driver 20 from the locking element 19 and pivot the fixed rail platform 11 about the pivot axis S of the joint unit 8. For this purpose, the release lever 10 is connected to a locking element 22, for example, by means of a motion mechanism 21. In the released position of the locking element 19, movement of the locking element 19 is permitted, so that the locking element 19 cannot lock the driver 20 in this position. For example, locking of the locking element 19 can only be achieved by moving the locking element 22 back.

[0057] From the Fig. 5 and Fig. A contour 23 is formed on the mounting plate 5. For example, the contour 23 is formed on the mounting plate 5. A guide pin 24 of the release lever 10 rests against the contour 23. The release lever 10 is movably mounted on the rotary table 7 about a release axis E. For example, the contour 23 has a first recess 25 into which the guide pin 24 can engage, thus blocking rotation of the rotary table 7 relative to the mounting plate 5. If the guide pin 24 is moved out of the recess 25 by a rotation of the release lever 10, rotation of the rotary table 7 about the axis of rotation D of the rotary unit 6 is released.

[0058] When the rotary table 7 is moved about the axis of rotation D of the rotary unit 6, the guide pin 24 rests against the contour 23, thus preventing the release lever 10 from rotating about the release axis E towards the locking element 13. This prevents movement of the blocking element 22, and therefore the catch element 19 cannot assume its locking position. Fig. 7). In this position, a rotation of the turntable 7 is thus achieved while the turntable is simultaneously pivoted around the pivot axis S.

[0059] For example, the rotary device 1 has a further, e.g. second, recess 26 into which the guide pin 24 can engage in a rotated position of the rotary table 11, e.g. in a position rotated by 180°, whereby the locking element 19 can return to a locking position ( Fig. 8) This makes it possible in the second position to lock the rotational movement of the turntable around the axis of rotation D, as well as to lock a pivoting movement of the turntable 11 around the pivoting axis S.

[0060] In the Fig. Figures 9 to 12 illustrate a movement sequence of the vehicle seat 2, which can be realized by means of the rotating device 1. In the Fig. Figures 9 to 12 show, for example, a steering wheel 27 of a vehicle (not shown) positioned as an obstacle to a rotational movement of the vehicle seat 2.

[0061] To avoid the steering wheel 27 and other components in the vehicle, for example the backrest 3 of the vehicle seat 2 is first folded down towards the seat surface 4 of the vehicle seat 2 about a pivot axis of the vehicle seat 2 ( Fig. 9). Subsequently, for example, the vehicle seat 2 is moved by means of the sliding unit 8 in the direction of travel F, in the direction of the steering wheel 27, relative to the mounting plate 5 of the rotary device 1 in a sliding direction V of the sliding unit 8 ( Fig. 10).

[0062] Subsequently, for example, the locking of the locking element 13 is released by a movement of the release lever 10, so that the sliding unit 9 and the vehicle seat 2 arranged thereon are pivoted upwards about the pivot axis S of the joint unit 8 by a spring force of a spring element 17 of the joint unit 8 ( Fig. 11).

[0063] Subsequently, the vehicle seat 2 can be rotated around the axis of rotation D of the rotating unit 6 past a B-pillar 28 of the vehicle (not shown). For example, this makes it possible to rotate the vehicle seat 180° around the axis of rotation D of the rotating unit 6 while it is mounted in the vehicle ( Fig. 12).

[0064] (Not shown in the figures) the backrest can then be folded away from the seat surface in the direction of travel F. It is also conceivable that the vehicle seat 2 can then be moved relative to the mounting plate 5 in the direction of travel F or towards the steering wheel 27 by means of the sliding unit 9 (not shown).
