    [0002] Seat for a vehicle
    [0004] Object of the invention
    [0006] The subject of the present patent application is a vehicle seat according to claim 1, which incorporates notable innovations and advantages.
    [0008] Background of the invention
    [0010] A vehicle seat is the element responsible for accommodating the driver or passengers inside the vehicle. Furthermore, it is intended that the seats hold the occupants of the vehicle comfortably but, at the same time, retain said occupants in the seat in the event of a collision.
    [0012] There are many different designs of a seat, but in general, they consist of a cushion with a backrest mounted on the cushion. The cushion has the function of providing a support surface for the thighs of the person occupying the seat, in addition to supporting their weight, and the backrest has the function of providing a support surface for the back of said occupant, from the hip shoulder-length.
    [0014] Vehicle seats are known that integrate a function to fold down the vehicle seat, especially those in the front seats, so that a passenger in the rear seat can access, through the opening defined by the front door, the seats arranged at the rear of the vehicle. These types of mechanisms facilitate access to the rear seats of the vehicle. In order to access the rear seats, the user must actuate an actuator that unlocks the front seat back so that it moves from a reclined position to a folded forward position. It is common for, when actuating the actuator, the longitudinal adjustment of the front seat is unlocked, so that it can be moved forward at the same time as the backrest is folded forward.
    [0016] The mentioned control is carried out through an actuator, which allows the user to lower the backrest when the user activates the actuator. Actuators of this type are usually on one of the sides of the seat or below it, in an area within reach of the user. However, the different positions of the actuator presented may be not very ergonomic for the user. Currently there is a tendency to place these actuators in the seat back itself, so that the user can access it in a more comfortable way.
    [0018] In relation to the aforementioned trend, document DE102004005705 is known, which discloses a backrest with an integrated headrest comprising an actuator for adjusting the folding of the seat backrest. This actuator is integrated in the upper part of the integrated headrest, more specifically in the rear area in the forward direction of the vehicle. In this way the user of the seat has access to the actuator in an ergonomic way from both the left and the right zone when seated on the seat.
    [0020] The drawback that document DE102004005705 presents is that since the actuator is on the outside of the headrest, it is possible that it is actuated in a non-voluntary way by an occupant of the vehicle, activating the folding mechanisms in an undesired way. In addition to the discomfort that this can cause, it can be dangerous for a vehicle occupant to mistakenly activate the actuator when the vehicle is running. This danger increases especially in small vehicles, where the space is smaller with a greater risk of contact with the elements of the vehicle when entering or exiting it.
    [0022] Another of the drawbacks associated with DE102004005705 is that it contemplates an improvement in ergonomics only for the situation in which the user is sitting, without taking into account access to the actuator in other necessary situations.
    [0024] In addition, the actuator is not very visible from the front of the vehicle when the backrest is in the upright or sitting position, so the user could have problems finding the actuator
    [0026] It therefore seems necessary to offer an alternative to the state of the art that provides a vehicle seat with an actuator that regulates the folding of the backrest, providing safety, being more accessible to the user and improving its visibility.
    [0028] Summary
    [0030] The present invention has been carried out to solve the aforementioned drawbacks detected in the state of the art while the advantages achieved by the state of the art remain intact.
    [0031] A seat for a vehicle, preferably a motor vehicle, normally comprises a cushion and a backrest. By cushion is meant the portion of the seat that defines a support surface for the occupant's thighs, that is, vertically supports the occupant's weight. By backrest is meant the portion of the seat that defines a support surface for the occupant's back, that is, supports the occupant's back supports in the direction of advance of the vehicle. Both cushion and backrest comprise a frame, a padding, which provides cushioning and comfort properties for the user, an upholstery, which covers the padding to protect it and provide a good exterior finish, and exterior coatings, to cover certain areas that are you want them not to be seen by the user. A variety of technologies, geometries and materials can be used to form said seat components.
    [0033] The present invention deals with a seat for a vehicle, where the seat comprises a backrest, a headrest, where the backrest and the headrest define a hollow space between them, a folding mechanism, configured to move the backrest from a first upright position to a second collapsed position and an actuator configured to control the collapse mechanism. The actuator is arranged on at least one of the surfaces defining the hollow space.
    [0035] Backrest means the part of the seat on which the back rests, from the shoulder area to the waist. By headrest is understood the part raised on the backrest where the head of a user rests. The hollow space is defined between the backrest and the headrest, in this position, the hollow space does not interfere with the ergonomics of the user or their comfort, since it respects the areas of contact with the head and back.
    [0036] The hollow space defined between the headrest and the backrest is limited by at least three surfaces that define it. The hollow space is an opening that extends from the front surface of the seat, in the forward direction of the vehicle, the backrest being in a first upright position, from the seat to the rear area of the seat, with respect to the same forward direction. In a preferred mode, the seat will be a backet type seat, that is, a seat with the headrest integrated in the backrest, so that the hollow space will be an opening that passes through the entire solid of the seat and its elements such as the foam, the frame , decorative elements etc.
    [0038] In another alternative mode in which the headrest is mobile or removable with respect to the backrest, the gap will be defined by the joining elements, the lower surface of the headrest and upper surface of the backrest. The lateral surfaces that define the hollow space can be made of different materials depending on the type of vehicle and its components.
    [0040] The mechanical locking mechanism is configured to move the backrest from a first upright position to a second lowered position. By first upright position refers to when the backrest is in the position of use for sitting, that is, the backrest is arranged in a vertical plane YZ orthogonal to the direction of advance X of the vehicle. By second folded position is meant when the seat is in the non-use position and the backrest is fully folded down. This position is determined by the degrees that the folding mechanism allows the backrest to rotate. The mechanical locking mechanism is controlled by an actuator. This actuator is capable of being actuated or actuated by the occupant of the vehicle. In this way, by means of the folding mechanism, the user is allowed to move the backrest to a first position when he wants to make use of sitting on the seat and to move it to a second position, when he wants to have the seat folded to have greater access. to the rear of the passenger compartment.
    [0042] This actuator is arranged on at least one of the surfaces that define the hollow space. The fact that the actuator is within the hollow space allows access to the hollow from a plurality of positions. In this way, access to the user is facilitated, since the actuator can be conveniently accessed when the user is outside the vehicle, when he is in the front area of the vehicle and when he is in the rear area of the vehicle. Another advantage of this arrangement is that the seat can be folded down with a single hand, without the need to use one hand to activate a button and with the other hand transmit the effort necessary to fold down the seat.
    [0044] In the same way, since it is on one of the walls that define the hollow space, it prevents the actuator from being actuated involuntarily. Being on one of the surfaces that limit the hollow space, contact with the actuator only occurs on those occasions when the user wishes to fold down or recline the seat. In this way, in addition to the aforementioned inconveniences, the risk of accident is reduced if another user operates the actuator by mistake.
    [0046] In another aspect of the invention, the headrest is fixedly attached to the backrest so that the headrest moves integral with the backrest, so that the headrest and the backrest move as a single system, maintaining the positional relationship between them.
    [0047] The hollow space is arranged in a middle position, where the middle position is located at the same distance, according to a horizontal direction Y perpendicular to a direction X of advance of the vehicle, from each of the lateral ends of the backrest. Thus, the hollow space will be centered with respect to the sides, thus ensuring that access is equally adequate from each of the sides, that is, from a left side and a right side according to the X direction of advance of the vehicle.
    [0049] More specifically, the actuator is arranged in a centered position with respect to the hollow space, where the centered position is positioned at the same distance, according to a horizontal direction Y perpendicular to a direction X of advance of the vehicle, of each of the lateral surfaces that define the hollow space. Thus, it is ensured that the actuator is equally accessible for a vehicle occupant located on the right side of the seat or for an occupant located on the left side of the seat. In addition, being positioned in the centered position with respect to the hollow space, it is intuitive for the user.
    [0051] According to an alternative embodiment, the actuator is displaced with respect to a centered position with respect to the hollow space, where the centered position is positioned at the same distance, according to a horizontal direction Y perpendicular to a direction X of advance of the vehicle, of each of the lateral surfaces that define the hollow space. In such a way that when the user accesses the vehicle from a side towards which the actuator is moved, it will be more ergonomic for the user to access it, the actuator being able to be both on the lower surface and on the upper surface. This configuration is suitable when access to the vehicle is only allowed on the left or right side of the vehicle. By upper surface is meant the surface that limits the hollow space of the vehicle arranged farthest from the vehicle floor, the backrest being in a first upright position. By lower surface is meant the surface that defines the hollow space arranged closest to the vehicle floor, the backrest being in a first upright position. So if the user accesses the vehicle from the side most towards which the actuator is offset, the user accesses the actuator in a more ergonomic way.
    [0053] More specifically, the actuator is arranged on at least one of the side surfaces. These side walls are those that define the hollow space and are arranged on a left and right side of the hollow, along an X axis in the direction of advance of the vehicle.
    [0055] According to an alternative embodiment, the headrest is slidable with respect to the backrest by means of an adjustment mechanism, so that a distance between the backrest and the Headrest can be adapted, where the actuator is arranged on the lower surface that defines the hollow space. Thus, the adaptation of the distance is done by moving the headrest in a vertical direction along the Z axis with the backrest in a first upright position, so that the distance of the headrest from the backrest can be adjusted as a function of the user needs.
    [0057] In particular, the actuator is arranged in a centered position, where the centered position is positioned at the same distance, according to a horizontal direction Y perpendicular to a direction X of advance of the vehicle, of each of the lateral surfaces that define the hollow space . So access to the actuator is possible from a plurality of positions. Thus, the actuator is designed to be accessible by a user who is outside the vehicle, a user who is at the back of the seat or a user who is in the front of the seat. The fact that it is arranged in the plane of symmetry allows access to be accessible from the left and right areas of the seat.
    [0059] More in particular, the actuator is a sliding element relative to the headrest. Thus, the movement to be carried out by the user is to press or pull, simplifying the movements necessary to actuate the actuator. In the case of a first reclined position of the backrest, the actuator will be slidable in a vertical Z direction, orthogonal to the X axis of advance of the vehicle.
    [0061] According to one embodiment, the headrest comprises a support means, where the support means is configured to act as a support surface for at least one finger of the occupant. This is especially advantageous, since by having to exert force on the actuator to be able to slide it and thus actuate it, it is convenient that one of the areas of the hand has a support, for example, a support for the thumb, and that with the remaining fingers, more pressure can be exerted on the actuator. The areas of the hand can be supported inversely. This achieves greater stability in the actuation and improves the ergonomics of the user's hand position, being able to transmit force more easily.
    [0063] Specifically, the distance between the support means and the actuator is less than 12 cm. This allows an average adult user to reach both the actuator and the support means. Thus, the support means can be a slit or cavity made in the backrest or headrest, depending on the position of the actuator and the direction of sliding of the actuator. The dimensions and geometry of the support means will be adequate to receive the at least one finger of the occupant.
    [0065] According to a particular embodiment, the headrest comprises an outer surface, where the distance between the outer surface and the actuator is less than 12 cm. Thus, the outer surface will serve the user as a point of support for one area of the hand and with the other the actuator acts. This distance allows an average adult user to reach both the actuator and the support means. In this case, the point of support is the outer surface itself, on which the user can rest his thumb and press the actuator with one of the remaining fingers or vice versa. The outer support surface can be the top surface of the headrest, the side surface of the headrest, or the side surface of the backrest, depending on the position of the actuator.
    [0067] More specifically, the actuator is configured to be displaced in a rotational movement relative to the headrest. Where the actuator is preferably of the lever type, which is easily operated from any position. The movement to perform is intuitive.
    [0069] Advantageously, if the actuator is actuated, a mechanical locking mechanism releases a rotation of the backrest, so that the backrest rotates between a first and a second position. In this way, the user can define a first reclined position where the seat is in the use position to sit on it and a second folded position, where the seat is adjacent to the cushion so that access to the back of the seat is facilitated. seat, among other maneuvers. If the actuator is not actuated, the mechanical locking mechanism blocks a rotation of the backrest, so that the backrest is locked in a first upright position or a second lowered position. Alternatively, the backrest can be locked in an intermediate position between a first upright position and a second lowered position.

Other characteristics and advantages of said seat for a vehicle, object of the present invention, will be apparent from the description of a preferred, but not exclusive, embodiment, which is illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, in which:

    [0090] Description of a preferred embodiment
    [0092] In view of the aforementioned figures and, in accordance with the numbering adopted, an example of a preferred embodiment of the invention can be seen in them, which comprises the parts and elements that are indicated and described in detail below.
    [0094] Figure 1A illustrates a perspective view of a seat 1 with a headrest 3 integrated into the backrest 2, also known as a baquet or bueket. These types of seats usually have a cushion 12, where the user's lower trunk rests, a backrest 2, configured to receive the user's back, and a headrest 3, configured to receive contact with the user's head. Between the backrest 2 and the headrest 3 a hollow space 4 is defined. Preferably, this hollow space 4 is designed to meet the ergonomic and comfort requirements of the user, providing a contact area in the uppermost area of the head and positioning the hollow space 4 so that it coincides with the curvature of the neck area. Preferably, in this type of seat, the headrest 3 is fixedly attached to the backrest 2, so that the headrest moves integral with the backrest.
    [0096] As can be seen in figure 1A, the backrest 2 is defined by at least one lateral end 21. These lateral ends 21 can project towards a direction of advance of the vehicle as shown in the image to accommodate the user with greater comfort when facing acceleration or lateral movements of the occupant. The backrest 2 is preferably symmetrical. For design reasons or the need to incorporate accessories, a seat belt for example, the seat may lack symmetry.
    [0098] The hollow space 4 is delimited by four main surfaces: an upper surface 42 and a lower surface 43, according to a Z direction, and by two lateral surfaces 41, according to a Y direction.
    [0100] In the same way, it can be seen in figure 1A, an actuator 5 arranged on one of the surfaces that define the hollow space 4, more specifically on the upper surface 42, being able to be positioned on other walls as can be seen in figure 5. A The aim of the present invention is to prevent the user from unintentionally actuating the actuator 5. With the present arrangement, with the actuator 5 being on one of the walls defining the hollow space 4, it is possible to reduce the risk of accidental contact.
    [0102] It can be seen how the headrest 3 is defined by an outer surface 31. It should be mentioned that this surface is preferably made of the same material as the headrest 3. Alternatively and due to design requirements it can be made of another material such as a rigid plastic for example.
    [0104] The actuator 5 is configured to control a mechanical locking mechanism 51, which is configured to release a rotational movement of the backrest 2 from a first upright position to a second lowered position. Alternatively, the actuator 5 can control other movements such as the sliding movement of the headrest 3.
    [0106] In a preferred mode, the hollow space 4 is arranged at the same distance from each of the lateral ends of the backrest 2 according to a horizontal direction Y orthogonal to a direction X of advance of the vehicle, being in a middle position, as shown in the Figure 1. Alternatively, this hollow space 4 may be displaced with respect to said middle position, due to design requirements, etc. Similarly, between the headrest 3 and the backrest 2 there may be more than one hollow space 4 with aesthetic or other functions.
    [0107] Alternatively, in figure 1B a vehicle seat 1 of the type is shown with the headrest 3 movable with respect to the backrest 2. In the image a cushion 12, a backrest 2 and a headrest 3, among others, can be seen. The headrest 3 is slidable relative to the backrest 2 by means of an adjustment mechanism, that is, the distance between the backrest 2 and the headrest 3 can be adapted. The adjustment mechanism can be, for example, a mechanical mechanism that allows the locking of positioning elements on the backrest 2. For example, the sliding headrest 3 can have rod-type elements that lock the position of the headrest 3 at a determined height.
    [0109] The image shows a seat 1 of a vehicle with a backrest 2 and a headrest 3. Between the headrest 3 and the backrest 2 a hollow space 4 is defined. Said hollow space 4 comprises variable dimensions depending on the position of the headrest 3 with respect to the backrest 2. Thus, the hollow space 4 is delimited by an upper surface 42, which corresponds to the lower surface of the headrest 3, a lower surface 43, which corresponds to the upper surface of the backrest 2, and two surfaces lateral surfaces 41. These lateral surfaces 41 are preferably connecting elements that allow the adjustment of the headrest 3 with respect to the backrest 2, for example metal rods.
    [0111] Preferably the actuator 5 is arranged on a lower surface 43. In a preferred mode the actuator 5 is positioned at the same distance, according to a horizontal direction Y perpendicular to a direction X of advance of the vehicle, to each of the lateral surfaces 41 which define hollow space 4.
    [0113] The mechanical locking mechanism 51 is configured to move the backrest 2 from a first upright position to a second folded position, if the actuator is actuated, as can be seen in Figure 3A and Figure 3B.
    [0115] In figure 2A, a first side view of a seat 1 for a vehicle can be seen, in a first upright position. The actuator 5 is not actuated, so it locks the backrest 2 in the first position. In this first position, a vehicle seat 1 is presented with a cushion 12 and a backrest 2, the backrest 2 being in an upright position practically perpendicular to the cushion 12. This position is preferably defined for use, when the user sits on it. Preferably in this position the backrest 2 will be vertically arranged, the backrest 2 being in its maximum upright position. Other intermediate positions are alternatively possible, depending on the position defined by the user. When the headrest 3 is fixedly attached to the backrest 2, the headrest 3 moves integral with it.
    [0117] In figure 2B, a second side view of a seat 1 for a vehicle is seen, in a second folded position, according to the present invention. In this situation the actuator 5 is not actuated, so the backrest 2 can be moved by a user.
    [0119] Figure 2C shows a third side view of a seat 1 for a vehicle, in an intermediate position. In this position, the actuator 5 has been actuated, so that the mechanical locking mechanism 51 has released the rotation of the back 2. Thus, the back 2 rotates between an upright position and a lowered position. This intermediate position may be desired when the user needs to access the rear area but does not have the need to completely fold down the seat 1, for example. The seat 1 can be configured to be locked in only the first and second positions, or alternatively, the mechanical locking mechanism can allow locking in intermediate positions between a first position and a second position.
    [0121] Figure 3A shows a first detailed view of the headrest 3 with the actuator 5 not actuated. You can see a headrest 3 and a backrest 2, which define the hollow space 4. In this preferred mode the hollow space 4 is located in a middle position, as already referenced above, the hollow space 4 may be in other positions such as for example, in a lower zone, according to a vertical direction Z orthogonal to the direction of the vehicle X. According to another embodiment, the hollow space 4 may be in a position offset from the middle position. The geometry of the hollow space 4 shown in Figure 4A consists of two lateral surfaces 41, a lower surface 43 and an upper surface 42, thus forming an isosceles trapezoid. Other configurations are alternatively possible, for example that the geometry is that of a triangle or a rectangle.
    [0123] The actuator 5 arranged in a centered position is represented in said image, that is, the actuator 5 is positioned at the same distance from each of the lateral surfaces 41 that define the hollow space 4, according to a Y direction perpendicular to an X direction of advance of the vehicle. In Figure 3A the actuator 5 is shown arranged on the upper surface 42, and may alternatively be arranged on the lower surface 43.
    [0125] In another alternative embodiment, the actuator 5 is offset with respect to a centered position, with the possibility of being on the upper surface 42 and lower surface 43. Another embodiment is shown in figure 4, where the actuator 5 is arranged in al minus one of the lateral surfaces 41.
    [0127] Figure 3B shows a second detailed view of the headrest 3 with the actuator 5 being actuated. Upon actuation of the actuator 5 the mechanical locking mechanism releases the rotation of the backrest 2, so that the backrest 2 rotates between a first upright position and a second folded position. In this figure, the actuator 5 can be seen when a user has actuated it, that is, a force has been exerted on it.
    [0129] In said figure, an exemplary mechanical locking mechanism is shown consisting of a transmission element 511, which acts as a connection between the actuator 5 and the mechanical locking mechanism 51. This transmission element 511 is configured to move through the minus one rail 512, when the user exerts a force and moves the actuator 5. The rails 512 are fixed with respect to the headrest 3. When the transmission element 511 moves, it pulls on a mechanical cable 513 connected with the folding system of the backrest 2, to which it transmits the movement. Once the force is no longer exerted on the actuator 5, an elastic element 514 contracts, forcing the transmission element 511, and therefore the actuator 5, to return to its non-actuated position. For example, the elastic element 514 can be a spring and the transmission element 511, a traction cable.
    [0131] Note that the actuator 5 is a sliding element with respect to the headrest 3, so being in this arrangement on the upper surface 42, the sliding movement will be in a vertical direction Z. The actuator 5 describes the same movement if it is arranged in the lower surface 43. Alternatively, if the actuator 5 is on one side, the movement that the actuator 5 describes is in the Y direction. Preferably, the actuator 5 is a button or push-button element configured to be depressed. Alternatively the actuator 5 is an element configured to be pulled or to be displaced according to a rotational movement with respect to the headrest 3. Another embodiment is that the actuator 5 is configured to be displaced according to a rotational movement with respect to the backrest 2.
    [0132] It should be noted that the headrest 3 comprises a support means 13, where the support means 13 is configured to act as a support surface for at least one finger of the occupant. Thus, the user can support, for example, the thumb on the support means 13 and with the remaining fingers move the actuator 5. This mode may be suitable for when the user actuates the actuator 5 from outside the vehicle or a front area. In another embodiment, the user can move the actuator 5 with the thumb and support at least one of the remaining fingers on the support means 13. This last embodiment may be suitable when the user is the occupant of the rear seat, for example . The distance between the support means 13 and the actuator 5 is less than 12 cm, so that the hand reaches both the actuator 5 and the support means 13. For example, the distance is 10 cm. Said support means 13 is not represented in the images.
    [0134] Alternatively, the headrest 3 comprises an outer surface 31, where the distance enters the outer surface 31 and the actuator 5 is less than 12 cm, so that the user can support the hand to gain stability and be able to more easily exert force, supporting at least one finger on the outer surface 31 of the headrest 3. Similarly, the thumb can rest on the outer surface 31 and at least one of the rest of the fingers on the actuator 5 or vice versa. Preferably the distance between the outer surface 31 and the actuator 5 is less than 12cm, optimally 10cm.
    [0136] The dimensions and shape of the actuator 5 can vary in geometry, the dimensions referring to the ergonomics of the user being considered. As for the material of the actuator 5, it will preferably be made of a rigid material that does not deform under the pressure of the user's hand, such as a plastic material of the PPT type or similar. This actuator 5 preferably comprises a graphic identification indicating the direction in which to apply a force.
    [0138] In figure 4, the headrest 3 can be seen with the actuator 5 arranged on one of the sides 41. The sliding movement of the actuator 5 in this case is in a horizontal direction Y with respect to the direction of advance of the vehicle. Alternatively the actuator 5 may be the opposite side surface 41 of the hollow space 4 shown in the figure. It can therefore be appreciated that the actuator 5 is also visible in a plurality of positions.
    [0140] The details, shapes, dimensions and other accessory elements, as well as the components used in the implementation of the seat for a vehicle, may be conveniently replaced by others that are technically equivalent, and do not deviate. of the essentiality of the invention nor of the scope defined by the claims that follow the following list.
