Abstract
In the case of a fitting (21) for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, having at least two functional regions (15, 23), which are assigned in each case to the relative movement and/or unlocking of different components (11, 25; 25, 5) of the vehicle seat (1), and interrogation device (35, 45, 61) between the functional regions (15, 23), the interrogation device (35, 45, 61) have a pulling device (61), which is designed in closed form, between the functional regions (15, 23).
Claims19
A fitting for a vehicle seat having components, the fitting comprising:
- at least two functional regions that are mounted for respectively controlling different components of the vehicle seat, wherein each functional region functions to control at least one of:
- relative movement of the respective component of the vehicle seat, and
- unlocking of the respective component of the vehicle seat;
- and
- interrogation means for coordinating the functioning of the functional regions with respect to one another, wherein:
- the interrogation means includes pulling means having a closed geometric configuration for transmitting pulling forces between the functional regions,
- a first of the functional regions has a first roller over which the pulling means is guided,
- a second of the functional regions has a second roller over which the pulling means is guided,
- the second roller is mounted in a freely rotatable manner,
- the second roller has at least one stop which is for limiting a pivoting movement of a unit that is for being connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the respective component of the vehicle seat,
- the unit is smaller in diameter than the second roller,
- the second roller fits over the unit,
- the unit has a locking disk with a cutout which extends radially inward, and
- the stop of the second roller is part of a radially inwardly pointing cam positioned within the cutout.
