Manually longitudinally adjustable motor vehicle seat
Longitudinally adjustable motor vehicle seat comprising opposite rail pairs; a lower rail for securement to a chassis and an upper rail secured to a seat component, displaceable in the lower rail. Two pivotable levers are associated with the rail pairs. A second lever is connected to a locking mechanism for securing the upper rail; both levers are connected to a seat backrest. Upon operation of a control member connected to the levers for comfort-longitudinal seat adjustment, a first lever synchronously pivots the second lever to release the locking mechanism. A Bowden cable is connected to the backrest for adjustment when the backrest is folded forward into an easy-entry-position. A Bowden cable core is attached to the first lever, and a sheathing thereof is secured to the second lever. In a neutral position, the sheathing presses the first lever against an abutment secured to the upper rail.
A headrest socket for accommodating a headrest rod, including a socket body of polymeric material that has an inner space for accommodating a headrest rod. A spring tongue is provided as part of the socket body, or is monolithically formed on the socket body, and is displaceable toward the inner space for exerting a clamping effect. A spring device is disposed on the socket body for applying a tensioning or pressure action upon the spring tongue. The spring device is configured from a sheet steel strip.
A holding element, for supporting pivoting levers or the like, includes a support section for receiving an object to be supported as well as a first holding section and a second holding section.
