Frame structure of vehicle seat
A frame structure of the vehicle seat includes: a seat frame that constitutes a seat surface part of the vehicle seat; a pinion that is rotatably attached to the seat frame, and protrudes from an outer side to an inner side in a vehicle width direction; a drive input gear that is disposed on the inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the seat frame, is rotatable about a rotary shaft at a position different from the pinion, and enmeshes with the pinion; a reinforcement member that is disposed between the seat frame and the drive input gear in the vehicle width direction, and is fixed to the seat frame; and a support member that is disposed on the inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the seat frame with the drive input gear and the reinforcement member interposed therebetween, supports part of the pinion, and is fixed to the seat frame, and part of the support member comes into contact with the seat frame through an insertion part provided to the reinforcement member.
1. A frame structure of a vehicle seat comprising:
a seat frame that constitutes a seat surface part of the vehicle seat;
a pinion that is rotatably attached to the seat frame, and protrudes from an outer side to an inner side in a vehicle width direction;
a drive input gear that is disposed on the inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the seat frame, is rotatable about a rotary shaft at a position different from the pinion, and in mesh with the pinion;
a reinforcement member that is disposed between the seat frame and the drive input gear in the vehicle width direction, and is fixed to the seat frame; and
a support member that is disposed on the inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the seat frame with the drive input gear and the reinforcement member interposed therebetween, supports part of the pinion, and is fixed to the seat frame,
wherein part of the support member comes into contact with the seat frame through an insertion part provided to the reinforcement member.
2. The frame structure of the vehicle seat according to claim 1 , further comprising a fixing member that fixes the pinion to the seat frame,
wherein the support member is also supported at the seat frame by the fixing member.
3. The frame structure of the vehicle seat according to claim 2 , wherein
the reinforcement member includes
a through hole that penetrates the part of the pinion,
a first extension part that extends toward a side of the rotary shaft of the drive input gear with the through hole serving as a position reference, and
a second extension part that extends toward a side opposite to the rotary shaft of the drive input gear with the through hole serving as the position reference, and
the first extension part has a longer length from the through hole than the second extension part.
4. The frame structure of the vehicle seat according to claim 3 , wherein the insertion part is provided to the first extension part.
5. The frame structure of the vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein
the reinforcement member includes
a through hole that penetrates the part of the pinion,
a first extension part that extends toward a side of the rotary shaft of the drive input gear with the through hole serving as a position reference, and
a second extension part that extends toward a side opposite to the rotary shaft of the drive input gear with the through hole serving as the position reference, and
the first extension part has a longer length from the through hole than the second extension part.
6. The frame structure of the vehicle seat according to claim 5 , wherein the insertion part is provided to the first extension part.
7. The frame structure of the vehicle seat according to claim 1 , further comprising a fixing member that fixes the pinion to the seat frame, wherein
the drive input gear includes an arc-shaped long hole whose center is the rotary shaft,
the part of the support member is a vehicle width extension part that is inserted in the long hole and the insertion part and comes into contact with the seat frame, and
a gap between the vehicle width direction extended part and the insertion part is smaller than a gap between the vehicle width direction extended part and the long hole.
8. The frame structure of the vehicle seat according to claim 7 , wherein
the fixing member is a screw, and
the vehicle width direction extended part is cylindrical, and the screw that fastens and fixes the seat frame and the support member is inserted inside the vehicle width direction extended part.
