Vehicle seat, in particular utility vehicle seat
View Patent ↗A vehicle seat has a scissor-type stand vibratable and adjustable in height, with a pneumatic spring and cranks, intersecting at a scissor shaft. A control device for level control and for height adjustment of the stand has a control element, a valve device controlled by the control element, for controlling the spring, a switching element movable relative to the control element or the valve device, and a bearing. The control element and valve device are kinematically assigned to different parts of the stand movable relative to one another. The control element is linked to a first crank. The bearing is spaced from the shaft and connected with a second crank. The valve device is connected with the switching element movable relative to the control element.
1. A vehicle seat, comprising:
a) a scissor-type stand, which is able to vibrate and which can be adjusted in height, and comprising a pneumatic spring and at least one pair of cranks, which intersect at a scissor shaft; and
b) a control device for level control and for height adjustment of the scissor-type stand, the control device comprising a control element, a valve device, which can be controlled by the control element, to control the pneumatic spring, a switching element, which is movable relative to the control element or to the valve device, and a bearing for the switching element, wherein the control element and the valve device are kinematically assigned to different parts of the scissor-type stand, the parts being movable relative to one another;
wherein the control element is linked, by a connecting link, to a first crank of the at least one pair of cranks, the bearing is spaced apart from the scissor shaft and connected with a second crank of the at lest one pair of cranks, and the valve device is connected with the switching element, which is movable relative to the control element;
wherein the bearing rotatably supports the switching element about an axis, and the swithching element rotatably supports the control element about the axis.
2. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the control element, the switching element and the bearing are arranged radially one inside the other with respect to the axis.
3. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the valve device comprises tappets, which to cooperate with the control element protrude in the interior of the switching element.
4. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the control element comprises a control slot, which, in the event of a relative rotation of the control element and the switching element, controls the valve device.
5. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the switching element comprises a roll onto which a cable can be partially wound and which is pretensioned.
6. The vehicle seat according to claim 5 , wherein the switching element, relative to the axis, axially protrudes on both sides from the bearing, the valve device is arranged on one side of the switching element, and the cable roll is arranged on an opposed side of the switching element.
7. The vehicle seat according to claim 5 , wherein the control device comprises an actuating element which moves the cable and thus rotates the switching element.
8. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting link is connected to the first crank or a first transverse pipe between two first cranks which are fixedly connected with each other, the connecting link is connected to the control element, and the seat comprises a stroke compensating device.
9. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the control device has a base including the bearing, the base is connected with the second crank and/or a transverse pipe between two second cranks which are fixedly connected with one another, and the base is connected with the scissor-type stand.
