Vehicle seat and commercial vehicle
The invention relates to a vehicle seat with a seat part and with a seat back part for supporting a driver of the vehicle in the sitting position on the vehicle seat, wherein the vehicle seat has an additional vehicle driver's torso support device which can be disposed outside the seat part and the seat back and which can be temporarily disposed at least partially in an otherwise seat-free torso support region in front of the seat back part and laterally and/or above the seat back part, in order to provide support, laterally off-center of the seat back part, at least at the level of the shoulder region of the driver who is sitting on the vehicle seat when he adopts a seated working posture oriented to the side or backwards, and wherein the additional vehicle driver's torso support device comprises a seat back extension device which is disposed on the seat back part ( 3 ) so as to be movable in translation along a horizontal axis in order to be able to move the additional vehicle driver's torso support device substantially horizontally from an approximately central starting position into an off-center additional torso support position.
1. A vehicle seat for a driver comprising:
a seat part having a seat back part for supporting a driver of the vehicle in a sitting position on the vehicle seat;
an additional vehicle driver's torso support device which can be disposed outside the seat part and the seat back part, and which can be temporarily disposed at least partially in a seat-free torso support region in front of the seat back part and laterally and above the seat back part, in order to provide support, laterally off-center of the seat back part, at least at a level of a shoulder region of the driver; and,
wherein the additional vehicle driver's torso support device includes a seat back extension device disposed on the seat back part, said seat back extension device having at least one horizontal strut such that the vehicle driver's torso support device is movable in translation along a horizontal axis corresponding to said horizontal strut of said seat back extension device to move the additional vehicle driver's torso support device substantially horizontally from an approximately central starting position into an off-center additional torso support position.
2. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 1 , wherein: the additional vehicle driver's torso support device has a linear guide device for horizontal movement of the additional vehicle driver's torso support device along the horizontal axis.
3. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 2 , wherein: the linear guide device has an adjustment path which extends laterally over the seat back part.
4. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 3 , wherein:
the linear guide device has a rigid flat strip element guided and mounted on roller elements.
5. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 2 , wherein: the linear guide device has a rigid flat strip element guided and mounted on roller elements.
6. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 5 , wherein: the roller elements are disposed off-center above the seat back part.
7. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 1 , wherein: the additional vehicle driver's torso support device has a spring-loaded linear guide device to facilitate automatic movement of the vehicle driver's torso support device.
8. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 7 , wherein: the linear guide device has an adjustment path which extends laterally over the seat back part.
9. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 7 , wherein:
the linear guide device has a rigid flat strip element guided and mounted on roller elements.
10. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 1 , wherein: an adjustment path of the additional vehicle driver's torso support device is disposed substantially transversely with respect to a vertical adjustment path of the seat back extension device.
11. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 1 , wherein: the additional vehicle driver's torso support device is disposed on the seat back part so as to be actuated by means of a pressure-actuated device on an upholstered part of the seat back part.
12. A commercial vehicle, in particular an agricultural commercial vehicle, having a vehicle seat as claimed in claim 1 .
13. A vehicle seat for a driver comprising:
a seat part having a seat back part for supporting a driver of the vehicle in a sitting position on the vehicle seat;
an additional vehicle driver's torso support device which can be disposed outside the seat part and the seat back part, wherein the additional vehicle driver's torso support device can be temporarily disposed at least partially in a seat-free torso support region in front of the seat back part and laterally or above the seat back part in order to provide support, laterally off-center of the seat back part at least at a level of a shoulder region of the driver; and
wherein the additional vehicle driver's torso support device includes a seat back extension device disposed on the seat back part, said seat back extension device having at least one horizontal strut such that the additional vehicle driver's torso support device is movable in translation along a horizontal axis corresponding to said horizontal strut of said seat back extension device to move the additional vehicle driver's torso support device substantially horizontally from an approximately central starting position into an off-center additional torso support position.
14. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 13 , wherein: the additional vehicle driver's torso support device has a linear guide device for horizontal movement of the additional vehicle driver's torso support device along the horizontal axis.
15. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 13 , wherein: the additional vehicle driver's torso support device has a spring-loaded linear guide device to facilitate automatic movement of the vehicle driver's torso support device.
16. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 13 , wherein: an adjustment path of the additional vehicle driver's torso support device is disposed substantially transversely with respect to a vertical adjustment path of the seat back extension device.
17. A vehicle seat as claimed in claim 13 wherein: the additional vehicle driver's torso support device is disposed on the seat back part so as to be actuated by means of a pressure-actuated device on an upholstered part of the seat back part.
18. A commercial vehicle, in particular an agricultural commercial vehicle, having a vehicle seat as claimed in claim 13 .
