Adjustable seating assembly
A seating assembly includes a turntable that is rotatable about a first vertical axis. A seatbase is slidably coupled to the turntable. The seatbase is configured to slidably actuate regardless of a rotational position of the turntable. The seating assembly may be installed in a vehicle.
1. A seating assembly, comprising:
a turntable that is rotatable about a first vertical axis;
a seatbase slidably coupled to the turntable by turntable tracks; and
a platform that couples the seatbase to the turntable tracks, wherein the seatbase is slidably coupled to the platform by platform tracks.
2. The seating assembly of claim 1 , wherein the seatbase is slidable in a first direction and a second direction, and wherein the first direction and the second direction are non-parallel to one another.
3. The seating assembly of claim 2 ,
wherein the platform is slidable along the turntable tracks in the first direction relative to the turntable, and wherein the seatbase is slidable along the platform tracks in the second direction relative to the platform.
4. The seating assembly of claim 1 , wherein the seatbase is additionally pivotably coupled to the turntable such that the seatbase pivots about a second vertical axis.
5. The seating assembly of claim 4 , wherein the seatbase is pivotable relative to the turntable.
6. The seating assembly of claim 4 , wherein the seatbase pivots about the second vertical axis through a rotational displacement of greater than about forty-five degrees.
7. The seating assembly of claim 1 , wherein the seating assembly is installed in a vehicle.
8. A seating assembly, comprising:
a turntable that is rotatable about a first vertical axis; and
a seatbase slidably and pivotably coupled to the turntable, wherein the seatbase is configured to pivot about a second vertical axis through a rotational displacement of at least about forty-five degrees regardless of a rotational position of the turntable.
9. The seating assembly of claim 8 , wherein the seatbase is pivotable relative to the turntable such that the rotational displacement is at least about sixty degrees.
10. The seating assembly of claim 8 , wherein the seatbase is pivotable relative to the turntable.
11. The seating assembly of claim 8 , wherein the seatbase is slidably coupled to the turntable such that the seatbase can slidably actuated regardless of the rotational position of the turntable.
12. The seating assembly of claim 11 , wherein the seatbase is slidable in a first direction and a second direction, and wherein the first direction and the second direction are non-parallel to one another.
13. The seating assembly of claim 12 , further comprising:
a platform that operably couples the seatbase to the turntable, wherein the platform is slidable in the first direction relative to the turntable, wherein the seatbase is slidable in the second direction relative to the platform, and wherein the seatbase is pivotable about the second vertical axis relative to the platform.
14. A seating assembly for a vehicle, comprising:
a turntable that is rotatable about a first vertical axis;
a seatbase slidably and pivotably coupled to the turntable, wherein the seatbase is configured to pivot about a second vertical axis; and
a platform that couples the seatbase to the turntable, wherein the platform is slidable in a first direction relative to the turntable, and wherein the seatbase is slidable in a second direction relative to the platform.
15. The seating assembly for a vehicle of claim 14 , wherein the seatbase is pivotable relative to the turntable in a range from at least about five degrees to less than about ninety degrees.
16. The seating assembly for a vehicle of claim 15 , wherein the first direction and the second direction are non-parallel to one another.
17. The seating assembly for a vehicle of claim 14 , wherein the seatbase is configured to be slidably actuated regardless of a rotational position of the turntable.
18. The seating assembly for a vehicle of claim 17 , wherein the seatbase is pivotable about the second vertical axis relative to the platform.
19. The seating assembly for a vehicle of claim 18 , further comprising:
a seat; and
a seatback, wherein at least one of the seat and the seatback are operably coupled to the seatbase.
20. The seating assembly for a vehicle of claim 19 , wherein the turntable has a first chair assembly and a second chair assembly operably coupled thereto.
