Abstract

An oscillating framework for a vehicle seat, such as an oscillating seat and/or a utility vehicle seat, may have at least one lower frame and a link which is capable of oscillating, may be movable relative to the lower frame and may be coupled at least at a lower link end via a transverse rod to the lower frame. At at least one position detection device for detecting an assumed relative position of the transverse rod may be arranged in the lower frame. The transverse rod may be conjointly movable about an axis of rotation during movement of the link.

Claims (11)

1 . An oscillating framework for a vehicle seat, comprising an oscillating seat and/or a utility vehicle seat, comprising at least one lower frame and a link which is capable of oscillating, is movable relative to the lower frame and is coupled at least at a lower link end via a transverse rod to the lower frame, wherein at least one position detection device for detecting an assumed relative position of the transverse rod is arranged in the lower frame, and wherein the transverse rod is conjointly movable about an axis of rotation during movement of the link.

2 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the position detection device is designed to determine a deflection of the link and/or a seat height of the vehicle seat with reference to the detected relative position of the transverse rod.

3 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lower link end is connected to the transverse rod for rotation therewith.

4 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the position detection device is arranged in an articulation region of the transverse rod in and/or on the lower frame.

5 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one bearing element is arranged in a cavity of the lower frame, the bearing element comprising at least one bearing receptacle in which the transverse rod is held in a rotatably guided manner, wherein the position detection device is arranged at an end opposite the bearing element in the cavity of the lower frame.

6 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the position detection device comprises at least one angle sensor which is designed to detect an angular position of the transverse rod as a relative position, wherein a permanent magnet interacting with the angle sensor is arranged on and/or in the transverse rod.

7 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the transverse rod comprises a cavity in which a magnet carrier is fastened.

8 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the link is capable of oscillating, wherein an upper link end of the link is held in a manner guided movably in the longitudinal direction on an upper frame via a sliding element, and wherein a height of the upper frame with respect to the lower frame is changeable by a movement of the link.

9 . The oscillating framework as claimed in claim 1 , which comprises at least one oscillatable pair of links which intersect at a scissor axis, wherein the links are pivotable relative to each other about the scissor axis.

10 . A vehicle seat, comprising an oscillating seat and/or a utility vehicle seat, having at least one seat part and an oscillating framework, which is connected to the seat part, as claimed in claim 1 .

11 . The vehicle seat as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the oscillating framework is a scissors-type framework which is capable of oscillating.
