| 20090000424 | SPINDLE OR WORM DRIVE FOR ADJUSTING DEVICES IN MOTOR VEHICLES - A spindle or worm drive for adjusting devices, especially seat adjustment devices, window lifters and sliding roofs, in motor vehicles. The drive includes a fixed spindle or relatively fixed toothed rack which is secured to the second of the two parts. The gear elements are mounted in a housing which includes at least two plates that can be secured to each other by plug-in connectors. The connectors are also configured as supporting joints that absorb the forces of the gear. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090015043 | Vehicle Seat Comprising an Air Conditioning Unit - The vehicle seat comprises an air conditioning unit associated with the seat pan and/or the backrest. The air conditioning unit comprises a fan, a flow channel and an air distribution element arranged on the upper face of the seat pan and/or backrest upholstery and connected to the fan via the flow channel. A fan receptacle and the flow channel are molded into the seat pan and/or into the backrest. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090026821 | Motor Vehicle Seat Comprising Adjustable Lateral Cheeks - A motor vehicle seat includes adjustable lateral cheeks on the seat part and/or on the backrest. The length and the orientation of the lateral cheeks in relation to the central seat area and/or backrest area can be modified by adjusting the lateral cheeks in a combined manner, especially with the aid of a combined linear and rotational guide in order to create a controlled track movement. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20090134680 | MOTOR VEHICLE SEAT BACK STRUCTURE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE SEAT - A motor vehicle seat back structure comprising a backrest support frame which consists of a surface turned towards the seat user's back, a lordosis support which is arranged on the front part of the backrest support frame for supporting the user's back and an adjusting device for vertically adjusting the lordosis support position with respect to the extension plane of said backrest support frame. The adjusting device comprises at least one adjusting element operably connected to the lordosis support and at least one sliding element which is displaceable with respect to said adjusting element and interacts therewith in such a way that when the sliding element moves, the adjusting element is displaced with a directional component perpendicularly to the displacement direction of the sliding element and performs an action on said lordosis support in the direction. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090200847 | MANUEL ADJUSTMENT OF A BACK SUPPORT ON A VEHICLE - A manual adjustment of a back support on a vehicle seat includes comprising a cable pulley which is selectively rotatable in a drive direction or in a driven direction oriented counter to the drive direction, and a tensile device associated with the cable pulley, which may be rolled up onto the cable pulley by rotating the cable pulley in the drive direction. The tensile device is able to be coupled to a back support of a vehicle seat such that the rotation of the cable pulley in the drive direction and/or driven direction affects an adjustment of the back support. A pretensioning acts on the cable pulley—which produces a torque of the cable pulley in the driven direction. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090236889 | Support with a backrest adjuster device for a motor vehicle seat - A support with a lumbar adjuster device for a motor vehicle seat includes a front side which, in the installed position, faces a seat user's back and a lumbar adjuster device which is arranged on the front side of the support and is intended for setting the position of the lumbar support perpendicular to the plane of extent of the backrest frame. The lumbar adjuster device has at least one adjuster element to be brought into operative connection with the lumbar support, and at least one slide which is movable with respect to the adjuster element. The slide can be moved, firstly, along a tensioning direction along which it is pretensioned, and, secondly, along a drawing direction along which a drawing force can be transmitted to the slide via a drawing means coupled to the slide. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20100192328 | LOCKING DEVICE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE FOR SECURING A DISPLACEABLE MOTOR VEHICLE COMPONENT - A locking device for securing a motor vehicle component which is displaceable relative to a motor vehicle structure and which may be secured by means of the locking device within a displacement range in a respective position of rest reached by displacement is provided. The locking device comprising at least one first frictional element and at least one second frictional element, which is moved relative to the first frictional element upon displacement of the motor vehicle component and thereby may slide with a friction surface along a friction surface of the first frictional element under sliding friction conditions and which, in a respective position of rest of the motor vehicle component, with its friction surface bears against the friction surface of the second frictional element under static friction conditions. A flowable additional medium is provided which may be brought, upon a relative movement of the frictional elements, between their friction surfaces. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110094370 | SYNTHETIC FIBER ROPE WITH COUPLING ELEMENT - A synthetic fiber rope with coupling element for transmitting an adjustment force to an adjustable part to be connected to the rope via the coupling element is provided. The coupling element is attached to the rope as an element separate from the rope. The coupling element at least partly engages in the interior of the rope and there engages behind rope components made of synthetic fibers, wherein the coupling element completely reaches through the rope transverse to its local direction of extension and protrudes beyond the outer surface of the rope. A base of the coupling element resting against the outer surface of the rope and extending along a portion of the outer surface of the rope. A succeeding component is attached to the coupling element in that it is press-fitted with the coupling element, such that material of the succeeding component is deformed and rope components being compacted in the region of the coupling element. | 04-28-2011 |
