| 20110031773 | REAR VEHICLE SEAT RELEASE AND CARRYING HANDLE - The present invention discloses a removable rear seat assembly for use in a motor vehicle having a passenger compartment and a vehicle floor. A seat frame is mounted to the vehicle floor. A release mechanism is provided operatively connecting the seat frame to the vehicle floor as to prevent movement of the seat frame. A release handle is mounted to a rear of the seat frame and is connected to the release mechanism for purposes of activating the release mechanism. The release handle may also be used as a carrying handle allowing for increased maneuverability of the seat frame after removal. The seat frame is removable from the passenger compartment upon a downward pulling and upward rotation of the release handle. This specific movement requirement prevents the inadvertent release of the seat frame from the vehicle floor. The release handle is prevented from an immediate rotation upwards preventing a vehicle occupant from activating the release mechanism by kicking or lifting the release handle. The release handle is freely rotatable downwards to the vehicle floor creating a breakaway feature allowing a vehicle occupant to step on or kick the release handle without activating the release mechanism. These safety features prevent the inadvertent release of the seat frame. | 02-10-2011 |
| 20110175388 | LATCH ASSEMBLY FOR VEHICLE SEAT - A latch assembly for a vehicle seat is provided. The latch assembly for the vehicle seat which includes a base plate, a latch which is rotatably coupled to the base plate to rotate between a locking position and an open position, and a pawl and a pawl plate which are coaxial with the base plate and coupled to be overlapped each other to interact with each other to rotate, includes: the latch including a locking surface; the pawl plate including a pressing surface which presses the locking surface when the latch is positioned at the locking position, and a first supporting surface which supports the locking surface when the latch rotates by means of an impact; and the pawl including a second supporting surface which supports the locking surface together with the pawl plate when the latch rotates by means of the impact. Thus, the present invention provides a latch assembly for a vehicle seat having an improved configuration which enables a convenient handling and is capable of smoothly operating although there is a coupling condition error, and stably maintaining a coupling state in spite of an external impact against a chassis. | 07-21-2011 |
