Fitting system for a vehicle seat
First Claim
1. A fitting system for a motor vehicle seat, comprising:
- an axially extending shaft rotatable in the circumferential direction;
at least one fitting including a first fitting part and a second fitting part, wherein the first and second fitting parts are configured to be connected to a backrest and a seat part in such a manner that relative rotation of the first and second fitting parts will cause adjustment of inclination of the backrest;
a rotatably supported driver, wherein the driver drives or unlocks the fitting, wherein the shaft cooperates with the driver in the circumferential direction, wherein the shaft and the driver are rotationally secure or mechanically connected in order to rotate the driver;
a securing element that axially secures the driver and that is separate from the first and second fitting parts; and
at least one quick fastener seated on the shaft in an axially non-displaceable manner in order to secure the shaft and driver axially in at least one direction,wherein the quick fastener includes a ring-shaped basic body that at least partially encloses the shaft,wherein the quick fastener includes at least one finger which axially protrudes from the basic body and faces towards the fitting,wherein the quick fastener is provided with tongues which protrude from the basic body radially inward, and which bear against the shaft under bias,wherein the at least one finger is connected with and directly contacts the driver or the securing element,wherein the at least one finger cooperates with and abuts the driver or the securing element in a form-fitting manner,wherein the at least one finger axially fixes the shaft and the driver or the securing element relative to one another,wherein the tongues prevent displacement of the quick fastener along the shaft in a first axial direction away from the fitting,wherein the quick fastener bears against the fitting and exerts a force in a second axial direction that is opposite to the first axial direction, wherein the fitting prevents displacement of the quick fastener along the shaft in the second axial direction.

7. A quick fastener for a fitting system for a motor vehicle seat that includes an axially extending shaft rotatable in the circumferential direction, at least one fitting including a first fitting part and a second fitting part, a rotatably supported driver that drives or unlocks the fitting, and a securing element that axially secures the driver and that is separate from the first and second fitting parts, the quick fastener comprising:
-
a ring-shaped basic body that is configured to at least partially enclose the shaft; tongues which protrude from the basic body radially inward, and which are configured to bear against the shaft under bias; and at least one finger which axially protrudes from the basic body and is configured to face toward the fitting, wherein the at least one finger is configured to cooperate with and abut the driver or the securing element in a form-fitting manner, wherein the at least one finger is configured to axially fix the shaft and the driver or securing element relative to one another, wherein the quick fastener is configured to be seated on the shaft in an axially non-displaceable manner in order to secure the shaft and driver axially in at least one direction, wherein the at least one finger is configured to be connected with and directly contact the driver or the securing element, wherein the tongues prevent displacement of the quick fastener along the shaft in a first axial direction away from the fitting, wherein the quick fastener bears against the fitting and exerts a force in a second axial direction that is opposite to the first axial direction, wherein the fitting prevents displacement of the quick fastener along the shaft in a second axial direction.
