1-10. (canceled)
A transmission device for a vehicle seat, the device comprising:
- a hub;
- a shaft engaging said hub in a form-fitting manner such that said shaft transmits a torque to said hub, said shaft having a profile with m number of teeth, said hub having a profile with a central opening with n number of receptacles, at least one of said receptacles receiving one of said teeth of said shaft, said hub having n=2m receptacles or n=2m−1 receptacles.
A vehicle seat, comprising:
- a transmission device comprising a hub and a shaft engaging said hub such that said shaft transmits a torque to said hub, said shaft having an outer shaft surface defining m number of teeth, said hub having an inner hub surface defining a central opening and n number of receptacles, at least one of said receptacles of said hub receiving one of said teeth of said shaft, said hub having one of n=2m receptacles and n=2m−1 receptacles.
A transmission device for a vehicle seat, the device comprising:
- a shaft receiving element having an inner surface defining a central opening and a number of shaft teeth receiving recesses;
- a shaft having an outer surface defining a number of shaft teeth, said shaft receiving element receiving said shaft via said central opening such that one of said shaft teeth engages one of said shaft teeth receiving recesses, said shaft transmitting a torque to said shaft receiving element via engagement of said one of said shaft teeth with said one of said shaft teeth receiving recesses, wherein said number of shaft teeth receiving recesses of said shaft receiving element is equal to one of two times said number of shaft teeth and one less two times said number of shaft teeth.
