Longitudinal adjuster and vehicle seat
A longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat may have at least one seat rail pair, which is formed from a lower seat rail and an upper seat rail, which is guided for sliding in the longitudinal direction relative to the lower seat rail. The two seat rails of the seat rail pair may engage around one another. The lower seat rail or the upper seat rail may have at least one opening. The at least one opening may have an opening cross-section, the two upper corner regions of which each have a curvature portion may have a radius which continuously changes of the course of the curvature portion. A vehicle seat with the adjuster is described.
1. A longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat, comprising: at least one pair of seat rails, which is formed from a lower seat rail and an upper seat rail, which is guided displaceably in a longitudinal direction relative to the lower seat rail, wherein the two seat rails of the pair of seat rails engage mutually around one another, wherein the lower seat rail or the upper seal rail has at least one opening in a side wall, wherein the at least one opening has a substantially rectangular opening cross section, wherein two upper corner regions of which each have a curvature portion having a curvature portion radius which continuously changes over its course.
2. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the curvature portions of the two upper corner regions at least approximately forms a contour which is minimized in terms of notch stress.
3. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an upper edge portion arranged between two adjacent upper curvature portions has a rectilinear profile.
4. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lower seat rail has two openings arranged mirror-symmetrically with respect to a plane perpendicular to a transverse direction.
5. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the upper seat rail has two openings arranged mirror-symmetrically with respect to a plane perpendicular to a transverse direction.
6. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one opening is arranged in the region of at least one of two ends of the lower seat rail.
7. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one opening is arranged in the region of at least one of two ends of the upper seat rail.
8. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the lower seat rail in each case has at least one opening in the region of its two ends.
9. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the upper seat rail in each case has at least one opening in the region of its two ends.
10. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one opening has an opening cross section, the two lower corner regions of which each have a first radius.
11. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the curvature portion radius, which continuously changes over its course, in all of the regions of the curvature portions of the at least one opening is larger than the first radius of the lower corner regions of the at least one opening.
12. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an upper edge portion arranged between the two adjacent upper curvature portions is configured to be narrower than an opposite lower edge portion of the at least one opening, said lower edge portion being arranged between the two adjacent lower curvature portions.
13. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the at least one opening serves for receiving a hook of a covering cap for one of the two ends of the lower seat rail, wherein the hook engages in the at least one opening in order to secure the covering cap on the lower seat rail.
14. The longitudinal adjuster as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one opening serves for receiving a hook of a covering cap for one of the two ends of the upper seat rail, wherein the hook engages in the at least one opening in order to secure the covering cap on the upper seat rail.
