20090174244 | Seat height and tilt adjustment apparatus and method - A seat height and tilt adjustment apparatus includes first and second arms mounted between two structures. The first arm is pivotally attached to the first structure at the first pivot axis, and pivotally attached to the second structure. The second arm is pivotally attached to the first structure at a second pivot axis and pivotally attached to second structure. A linkage is pivotally attached to the first structure at a third pivot axis and pivotally attached to the first arm. A first actuator adjusts the distance between the two structures by simultaneously varying the distance between the first and second pivot axes and the distance between the first and third pivot axes. A second actuator varies the tilt of one structure relative to the other structure by varying the distance between the first and third pivot axes, while maintaining a constant distance between the first and second pivot axes. | 07-09-2009 |

20110148165 | SEAT - The subject of the invention is a seat, used in vehicles, offices and other places where a frequent change of the seating position is required in order to adjust to the user's requirements. It is characterized in that the seating frame is placed on side connectors, mounted to the supporting mechanism in such a manner that the axis of rotation of bolts, on which the frame of the seating is mounted, is placed approximately on a vertical axis passing through the user's centre of gravity, and is positioned by a locking mechanism with a lock. | 06-23-2011 |
20120007401 | VEHICLE-SEAT CONTROL APPARATUS - A vehicle-seat control apparatus includes an operation determination device, an exit determination device, a forward/backward adjusting device and a height adjusting device. The operation determination device is configured to determine whether a passenger operates a vehicle. The exit determination device is configured to determine whether the passenger exits the vehicle. The forward/rearward adjusting device is configured to move the vehicle seat rearward or forward according to a case where the passenger exits the vehicle or a case where the passenger operates the vehicle equipment. The height adjusting device is configured to move a rear part of the seat cushion to an upward state or move a front part of the seat cushion to a downward state when the passenger exits the vehicle. | 01-12-2012 |
20120025577 | HORIZONTAL SPRINGING MEANS WITH INCLINATION COMPENSATION - The invention relates to a vehicle vibration apparatus with a horizontal spring device for the horizontal springing of a seat element and/or a driver's cab with respect to a base element, wherein the horizontal spring device is arranged between the seat element or the driver's cab respectively and the base element, and comprises at least one spring element, the longitudinal axis of which extends substantially parallel to a surface of the base element, and at least one adjustment element, which reacts automatically to inclinations of the seat element with respect to a horizontal plane and which first increases the spring pre-stressing of the spring element in order subsequently to position the horizontal spring device in the centre of the spring path. | 02-02-2012 |
20120091772 | Compact multi-motion lifting and transferring apparatus and method of operating same - A compact multi-motion lifting and transferring apparatus and a method of operating same are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the apparatus may comprise an intermediary support member configured to be rotated about a substantially vertical axis, an electrically or hydraulically powered up/down extension arm, a support member for supporting a seat for accommodating at least one person, and a latching mechanism for securing the seat and seat support mechanism in a fully stowed position suitable for traveling in a vehicle. | 04-19-2012 |
20130113257 | REVERSE PEDESTAL SEAT - A vehicle including a seat base having a first slide assembly disposed on each of first and second sides of the seat base. A first support column is disposed below the seat base and is positioned between the first and second sides of the seat base. A second support column is disposed below the second side of the seat base. A brace connects the second support column to a transmission hump of the vehicle. | 05-09-2013 |
20130307306 | Wall Rail Platform and Release System - A system and method allow for a platform to be collapsed and moved in a vehicle. In one embodiment, a wall rail platform system disposed in a vehicle includes a collapsible platform. The collapsible platform has a position, which is a collapsed position or an un-collapsed position. The system also includes a rail and a carriage. The carriage is attached to the collapsible platform. The carriage is vertically moveable along the rail. The system further includes a soldier restraint system having a seat assembly and a single point release system. | 11-21-2013 |
20130313876 | SEAT ASSEMBLY HAVING A FRONT CUSHION MODULE - A vehicle seat assembly having a seat bottom that includes first and second side frame members and a front cushion module. The front cushion module has a support wire and a cushion. The support wire has first and second ends that are disposed proximate the front end of the first and second side frame members, respectively. The cushion receives and is supported by the support wire. | 11-28-2013 |
20140265503 | SEAT MOUNTED BUCKLE PRESENTER - A buckle presenter for moving a seat belt buckle with a vehicle seat of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle seat has a seat frame connected to a seat adjustment mechanism that moves the vehicle seat. The buckle presenter includes an anchor strap and a buckle strap. The anchor strap is anchored with respect to the vehicle seat such that it is substantially restricted from moving when the vehicle seat is being adjusted vertically. The buckle is attachable to the buckle strap, which is connectable to the vehicle seat such that it moves with the vehicle seat when it is being adjusted vertically. The buckle strap is configured to move along the anchor strap. When a load is applied to the seat belt buckle, the buckle strap and the anchor strap are configured to interlock such that the buckle strap is substantially restricted from moving vertically. | 09-18-2014 |
