MOTOR-VEHICLE ACCESSORY
The invention relates to a motor-vehicle accessory, comprising a moveable first part and a vehicle-fixed second part, wherein the first part is guided on the second part by a guide ( 43 ), wherein the guide ( 43 ) comprises at least one rack ( 22 a, 22 b, 24 a, 24 b ) in engagement with a gear ( 21 a, 21 b, 23 a, 23 b ), wherein the rack ( 22 a, 22 b, 24 a, 24 b ) is on one of the parts, and the gear ( 21 a, 21 b, 23 a, 23 b ) is on the other part. The particular feature consists in that the guide additionally comprises a tolerance compensation that comprises at least one running rail ( 26 a, 26 b, 28 a, 28 b ) on one of the parts and engages a running wheel ( 25 a, 25 b, 27 a, 27 b ) on the other one of the parts, wherein the running wheel ( 25 a, 25 b, 27 a, 27 b ) and/or the running rail ( 26 a, 26 b, 28 a, 28 b ) is elastically deformable, and a press-fit is formed between the running rail and the running wheel, so that the meshing teeth of the first part and of the second part are urged into a defined position.
1 . A motor-vehicle accessory comprising:
a moveable first part;
a vehicle-fixed second part;
a guide supporting the first part on the second part;
a rack on one of the parts;
a gear on the other of the parts and having teeth meshing with teeth of the rack;
a running rail on one of the parts; and
a running wheel on the other one of the parts, the running wheel or the running rail being elastically deformable, the running rail and the running wheel engaging each other in a press fit such that meshing teeth of the first part and of the second part are urged into a defined position.
2 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein the guide comprises two such racks horizontally and/or vertically spaced from one another and a corresponding number of gears respectively meshing therewith.
3 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 2 , wherein two gears are on one gear shaft.
4 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein the guide has first and second such gear shafts each such gears each meshing with a respective such rack.
5 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to wherein two gears of the first gear shaft and two gears of the second gear shaft are in engagement with one another.
6 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein at least one running wheel or one rack is on the guide.
7 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein at least one running wheel is on a gear shaft and at least one running rail is on a rack interacting with a gear of the gear shaft.
8 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein one running wheel is on each gear, and one running rail is on each rack, the one running wheel and the one running rail engaging each other.
9 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein the running rail is adjacent the rack and the running wheel is adjacent the gear.
10 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein the motor-vehicle accessory is a headrest and the first part is a head contact part moveable relative to a base as the second part.
11 . The motor-vehicle accessory according to claim 1 , wherein the motor-vehicle accessory is an armrest and the first part is an arm support adjustable in the longitudinal direction or adjustable in height and is guided in a base as a second part.
