Longitudinal adjuster, including a position recognizer, for a vehicle seat
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat, the longitudinal adjuster comprising:
- at least one first seat rail, wherein the first seat rail includes at least one locking row, and the locking row has an alternating sequence of notches and bars;
at least one second seat rail that is guided in the first seat rail so that the second seat rail is displaceable relative to the first seat rail;
at least one locking device for interacting with at least the alternating sequence of notches and bars of the locking row of the first seat rail for locking the second seat rail to the first seat rail; and
a position recognition device having a sensor, whereinthe sensor is positioned so that the sensor moves along the alternating sequence of notches and bars of the locking row in response to the second seat rail being displaced relative to the first seat rail, andthe sensor is configured for interacting with the locking row so that the sensor produces a signal in response to the sensor being moved along the alternating sequence of notches and bars of the locking row, and the signal is produced by the alternating sequence of notches and bars of the locking row.

Abstract
In the case of a longitudinal adjuster (1) for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, with at least one first seat rail (5), at least one second seat rail (8) which is displaceable relative to the first seat rail (5) and is guided therein, at least one locking device (11) for locking the first seat rail (5) to the second seat rail (8), wherein a locking row (19) of the first seat rail (5) is assigned to the locking device (11), and a position recognition device (20) with a sensor (24), the sensor (24) interacts with the locking row (19).

9. A longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat, the longitudinal adjuster comprising:
-
at least one first seat rail, wherein the first seat rail includes at least one locking row; at least one second seat rail that is guided in the first seat rail so that the second seat rail is displaceable relative to the first seat rail; at least one locking device for interacting with at least the locking row of the first seat rail for locking the second seat rail to the first seat rail; and a position recoanition device having a sensor, wherein the sensor is carried by the second seat rail and interacts with the locking row, there is an opening in the second seat rail, and the sensor is directed at the locking row through the opening in the second seat rail. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
