Fitting for a vehicle seat
View Patent ↗With a fitting for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, having a first fitting part and a second fitting part which are rotatable relative to each other and which are axially held together by an enclosing ring, wherein at least one fitting part has a shoulder on the end face facing away from the other fitting part, said shoulder having an axially protruding contour, for the form-fitting cooperation with the structure of a seat part or a backrest of the vehicle seat, a star shoulder is provided as shoulder, said star shoulder having a multi-arm, substantially symmetric star shape.
1. A fitting for a vehicle seat, comprising:
a first fitting part and a second fitting part which are rotatable relative to each other and which are axially held together by an enclosing ring,
wherein at least one fitting part has a shoulder on its end face facing away from the other fitting part, said shoulder having an axially protruding contour, for a form-fitting cooperation with a structure of a seat part or a backrest of the vehicle seat,
wherein a star shoulder is provided as the shoulder, said star shoulder having a multi-arm, substantially symmetric star shape,
wherein the star shoulder is configured in the shape of a four-arm cross,
wherein the star shoulder is configured to engage in the form-fitting cooperation through an exactly appropriate opening in the structure of the seat part or of the backrest, so that the structure of the seat part or of the backrest comes to bear against the fitting part in the section of the end face of the fitting part which is arranged radially outward the star shoulder.
2. The fitting of claim 1 , wherein each arm ends with a convex arc and/or with a straight section.
3. The fitting of claim 1 , wherein the arms merge into one another tangentially, with a concave arc and/or with a straight section.
4. The fitting of claim 2 , wherein the arcs are circular arcs.
5. The fitting of claim 1 , wherein the substantially symmetric star shape deviates from exact symmetry in a configuration in which the deviation serves as a positioning aid and/or as an anti-rotation element.
6. The fitting of claim 1 , wherein a toothed ring is configured on one of the fitting parts and a toothed wheel is configured on the other one of the fitting parts, such toothed ring and toothed wheel meshing with each other, whereby the two fitting parts are in geared connection with each other, and that a rotatably supported rotating eccentric which is driven by a driver is provided for driving a relative rolling movement of toothed wheel and toothed ring.
7. The fitting of claim 6 , wherein the toothed wheel is configured at the radially outer edge of the second fitting part.
8. The fitting of claim 1 , wherein a toothed ring is configured on one of the two fitting parts and guide segments for supporting the toothed ring and for guiding locking bars are configured on the other one of the fitting parts, and that a spring-loaded, rotatably mounted eccentric acts upon the locking bars which are movable in the radial direction, and which interact with the toothed ring, in order to lock the fitting.
9. The fitting of claim 8 , wherein the guide segments are configured on the radially outer edge of the second fitting part.
10. The fitting of claim 8 , wherein the arms of the star shoulder engage between the guide segments.
11. Vehicle seat, comprising:
a fitting according to claim 1 .
