20080252114 | Seat for heavy equipment having buffer means in forward and backward directions - A seat for heavy equipment having a buffer means in forward and backward directions is provided, which can protect an operator by attenuating impact and vibration generated in a cab in forward and backward directions of an excavator in accordance with the driving of the buffer means in a main working mode of the excavator. The seat for heavy equipment is mounted on a suspension plate and is located between left and right console boxes. The seat for heavy equipment includes a lower member mounted on the suspension plate; an upper member slidably mounted on the lower member in forward and backward directions of the equipment; a buffer means for attenuating impact and vibration generated in the forward and backward directions of the equipment; a tilting means including a frame, a hinge shaft, a driving shaft, and a control handle; and a locking means for locking and unlocking forward and backward movement of the upper member against the lower member when a pusher installed on one side of the frame is manipulated. In a main working mode of the equipment, a buffer function is performed through forward and backward movement of the upper member against the lower member, and when the main working mode is released, the buffer function is released. | 10-16-2008 |

20110227377 | Mechatronic vehicle safety seat - The mechatronic vehicle safety seat described transforms the geometry of the bottom frame and backrest frame associated with a head restraint when a collision is imminent. On a signal from a pre-crash detection device, or a manual or verbal indication, an energized solenoid instantly releases the forces of torsion springs and triggers the seat bottom and backrest for concurrent movement in sufficient time to mitigate excessive accelerations, loads and moments of forces acting upon seated occupants in response to impact modes. The distorted geometry of the bottom frame and backrest with head restraint enhances the safety performance of the seat belt and reduces the aggressiveness of airbags. | 09-22-2011 |
20110227378 | Vehicle safety seat - A vehicle safety seat (104, 202, 302, 502, 802) includes a seat bottom (120, 210, 310, 504, 810) that is movable substantially instantly from a substantially horizontal normal orientation for normal traveling to a deployed angled orientation contemporaneously with a vehicle crash. The deployed safety seat shifts a seat occupant (102) into a protective posture to reduce accelerations, loads and moments of force on various parts of the occupant's body. In preferred embodiments, the seat bottom is deployed into its angled orientation by lowering the rear (124, 312, 507, 812) of the seat bottom, causing the seat bottom to pivot about a front pivot (172, 220, 320, 518, 820) at the front of the seat bottom. Typically, a vehicle safety seat includes a backrest (130, 240, 360, 550, 840). In some embodiments, a backrest (130, 240, 360, 550) is movable downwards and/or rearwards simultaneously with movement of the seat bottom. | 09-22-2011 |
20140339865 | VEHICLE SEAT WITH A DEFORMATION DEVICE - A vehicle seat with a seat part and a backrest structure is provided. The seat part includes a first seat component, at which a second seat component connected with the backrest structure is fixed, when the backrest structure is present in a proper position of use. A deformation device with at least one deformation element fixed at one of the seat components is provided, which in the case of a crash upon exceedance of a specified threshold value of a force acting on the backrest structure permits a displacement of the second seat component relative to the first seat component by deforming the at least one deformation element. The deformation device includes at least one oblong hole which specifies a deformation path along which a displacement of the second seat component is effected after exceedance of the threshold value. A fastening element is provided, which fixes the deformation element and at least one seat component to each other, which with a bearing portion engages into the oblong hole at the other seat component, and which is held in a specified position by the deformation element, when the backrest structure is present in a proper position of use. | 11-20-2014 |
