Motor vehicle seat
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A motor vehicle seat comprising a seat part and a back part, wherein at least one of said seat part and said back part includes:
- a support frame;
a padding of foamed plastic material having an outer cover;
an attachment counterframe incorporated within said padding;
rapid engagement coupling means provided on said support frame and said attachment counterframe, for releasably connecting said attachment counterframe and said padding carried thereon to the support frame, said coupling means including at least one coupling member on one of said support frame and said counterframe, said coupling member further being snap-engageable in a cooperating aperture of the other one of said support frame and said counterframe, so as to rigidly connect the counterframe to the support frame without deformation of the counterframe, said coupling member being located at a position which is accessible from under the support frame when said counterframe is connected to the support frame, and said coupling member being resiliently deformable, as a result of an external action, into a contracted configuration to permit disengagement of the counterframe from the support frame.

5. A motor vehicle seat comprising a seat part and a back part, wherein at least one of said seat part and said back part includes:
-
a support frame having two upper attachment pins projecting upwardly, two lower attachment brackets having slots, and two intermediate abutments; a padding of foamed plastic material having an outer cover; an attachment counterframe incorporated within such padding which includes an upper portion with a pair of holes which are slidably engageable by said attachment pins, a pair of coupling members on its lower portion engageable within said slots, and an intermediate cross member which bears against the abutments, said intermediate cross member extending outwardly and rearwardly to the padding of the back part, and carrying a contractable and expandable pneumatic device for adjusting the arching of the padding; and rapid engagement coupling means provided on said support frame and said attachment counterframe, for releasably connecting said attachment counterframe and said padding carried thereon to the support frame, said coupling means including at least one coupling member on one of said support frame and said counterframe, said coupling member further being snap-engageable in a cooperating aperture of the other one of said support frame and said counterframe, so as to rigidly connect the counterframe to the support frame without deformation of the counterframe, said coupling member being located at a position which is accessible from under the support frame when said counterframe is connected to the support frame, and said coupling member being resiliently deformable, as a result of an external action, into a contracted configuration to permit disengagement of the counterframe from the support frame. - View Dependent Claims (6)
