To provide a seat device that can provide a smooth and stable deployment performance of an airbag. A seat device includes a backrest 1 B, an airbag 11 , and an upper guide member 41 and a lower guide member 42 . The backrest 1 B includes a tear line at an upper portion thereof. The airbag 11 is formed of a bag member, in which base cloths are joined to each other, and is provided in an interior of the backrest 1 B so that, during inflation, the airbag 11 cleaves the tear line 44 and is deployed to an upper side of the head of an occupant. The upper guide member 41 and the lower guide member 42 are provided in the interior of the backrest 1 B so as to guide a deployment direction of the airbag 11 towards the vicinity of the tear line 44 while restricting the deployment direction during the inflation of the airbag 11.
1. A seat device comprising:
a backrest including a cleavage portion;
an airbag provided in an interior of the backrest so that, during inflation, the airbag cleaves the cleavage portion and is deployed to an upper side of the head of an occupant;
a deployment-direction guide member provided in the interior of the backrest so as to guide a deployment direction of the airbag towards the vicinity of the cleavage portion while restricting the deployment direction during the inflation of the airbag, wherein the deployment-direction guide member includes an upper guide de member disposed so as to restrict upward deployment of the airbag during the inflation of the airbag; and
a headrest at the top portion of the backrest, wherein the upper guide member is disposed so as to substantially match a tangent line that contacts a contour of a front side of the headrest from a back-side end portion of an area where the inflation of the airbag is started.
2. The seat device according to claim 1 , wherein the cleavage portion is provided at an upper portion of the backrest.
3. The seat device according to claim 1 , wherein the deployment-direction guide member includes a lower guide member disposed so as to restrict downward deployment of the airbag during the inflation of the airbag.
4. The seat device according to claim 1 , further comprising a strength supporting member supporting a load from an occupant and being disposed in the interior of the backrest, wherein the deployment-direction guide member is secured to or integrally formed with the strength supporting member.
5. The seat device according to claim 1 , wherein the deployment-direction guide member includes a lower guide member disposed so as to restrict downward deployment of the airbag during the inflation of the airbag.
6. A seat device comprising:
a backrest including a cleavage portion;
an airbag provided in an interior of the backrest so that during inflation the airba cleaves the cleavage portion and is deployed to an upper side of the head of an occupant;
a deployment-direction guide member provided in the interior of the backrest so as to guide a deployment direction of the airbag towards the vicinity of the cleavage portion while restricting the deployment direction during the inflation of the airbag, wherein the cleavage portion is provided at an upper portion of the backrest, and the deployment-direction guide member includes an upper guide member disposed so as to restrict upward deployment of the airbag during the inflation of the airbag; and
a headrest at the top portion of the backrest, wherein the upper guide member is disposed so as to substantially match a tangent line that contacts a contour of a front side of the headrest from a back-side end portion of an area where the inflation of the airbag is started.
7. The seat device according to claim 6 , wherein the deployment-direction guide member includes a lower guide member disposed so as to restrict downward deployment of the airbag during the inflation of the airbag.
