Abstract

The invention relates to a vehicle seat for a vehicle, comprising a seat part that has a seat part frame, and comprising a backrest part, the seat part and/or the backrest part being designed so as to be adjustable with respect to a degree of inclination, and comprising at least one switching console element which comprises at least one control element for actuating at least one function of at least one actuator element of the vehicle, the switching console element being mounted on the seat part frame to the side of the seat part, a first portion of the switching console element being designed so as to be displaceable at least in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle seat.

Claims (12)

1. A vehicle seat for a vehicle, comprising:

a seat part that has a seat part frame;

at least one armrest;

a backrest part, wherein the seat part and/or the backrest part are designed so as to be adjustable with respect to a degree of inclination; and

at least one switching console element comprising at least one control element for actuating at least one function of at least one actuator element of the vehicle,

wherein the switching console element is mounted on the seat part frame to the side of the seat part, wherein a first portion of the switching console element is designed so as to be displaceable at least in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle seat, wherein there is no mechanical interaction between the switching console element and the armrest, and wherein a movement of the switching console element can be carried out independently of a movement of the armrest and the movement of the armrest can be carried out independently of the movement of the switching console element.

2. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the switching console element comprises a second portion which is directly and rigidly connected to the seat part frame and relative to which the first portion is designed to be displaceable, at least in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle seat, by means of a translational movement.

3. The vehicle seat according to claim 2 , wherein the second portion of the switching console element comprises a guide rail element, and wherein the first portion of the switching console element comprises a carriage element that can be moved relative to the guide rail element by means of the translational movement.

4. The vehicle seat according to claim 3 , wherein the second portion of the switching console element comprises spacer bolts which are each rigidly connected, at a first end, to the seat part frame, and releasably connected, at a second end, to the guide rail element.

5. The vehicle seat according to claim 3 , wherein a mechanical stop element is arranged at a first end and a second end of the guide rail element in each case, which stop element is intended to create a mechanical interaction with the carriage element during the translational movement of the carriage element with respect to the guide rail element.

6. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the switching console element comprises a part which is on the inside in the seat width direction and on which a first shaft is mounted, and a part that is on the outside in the seat width direction and that can be pivoted about the first shaft.

7. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein a mechanical securing element is arranged on the guide rail element, which securing element can be brought into engagement with the carriage element and is designed to block the translational movement of the carriage element relative to the guide rail element.
