Abstract
A vehicle seat has shoulder restraints extending forward from a backrest. The shoulder restraints may extend forward of a seated occupant's shoulder, providing effective restraint of lateral movement. The seat may also include head and thigh restraints and a beam running horizontally across the backrest. The beam stiffens the backrest and may also stiffen the shoulder restraints or provide attachment points for fixing the seat to a vehicle roll cage.
Description
- The invention relates to vehicle seats. In particular, the invention relates to seats for racing cars.
- Mass market vehicle seats generally include padded upholstery around a framework. The frameworks are generally complicated, allowing for adjustment of the seat. Such vehicle seats are usually not adapted to resist large lateral forces on an occupant of the seat, or to be fixed to a vehicle roll cage.
- In vehicle seats for racing cars that, weight is very important. This makes complex framework undesirable. Also, users of seats in motor sports are likely to experience large lateral forces because of cornering at high speeds, loss of control of the vehicle or collisions.
- Vehicle seats with forwardly extending side portions are known. Generally these side portions extend only a short distance from the seat's backrest and so do not effectively restrain lateral movement of the driver. One such seat is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,627,379. This seat includes triangular side portions that are widest at the top, formed from a tubular framework. As shown in
FIG. 3 , the side portions are padded to a laterally sloping shape, such that the ability of the seat to resist lateral forces on the driver is not strong. Furthermore, this structure is comparatively complicated and heavy. A similar seat is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,679,854. Again the “side restraints” do not extend far from the seat back. - U.S. Pat. No. 5,513,897 discloses a vehicle seat with a lateral head restraint. Again, this seat is a complicated structure. The seat does not provide lateral support other than around the head. US 2002/0038966 describes a safety seat with head protection members but not shoulder restraints.
- It is an object of the invention to provide a vehicle seat with effective restraint of lateral movement of an occupant in the shoulder region.
- It is also an object of the invention to provide a vehicle seat with effective restraint of lateral movement of an occupant in the shoulder and head region.
- It is also an object of the invention to provide a vehicle seat with effective restraint of lateral movement of an occupant in the thigh, shoulder and head region.
- It is also an object of the invention to provide a vehicle seat with improved means of fixing the seat to a vehicle and particularly to a vehicle roll cage.
- In a first aspect the invention provides a vehicle seat having:
- a base and a backrest, and
- shoulder restraints extending forward from the backrest,
- wherein the shoulder restraints, in use, extend forward beyond the shoulder of a seated occupant and are adapted to restrain lateral movement of the seated occupant in the occupant's shoulder region.
- In a second aspect the invention provides a vehicle seat having:
- a base and a backrest, and
- a beam formed integrally with the backrest and extending substantially horizontally across the backrest at about shoulder height of a seated occupant.
- In a third aspect the invention provides a vehicle seat having:
- a base and a backrest, and
- a beam extending substantially horizontally across the backrest and including one or more fixture means adapted for fixing the seat to one or more structural members of a vehicle.
- In a fourth aspect the invention provides a vehicle seat having:
- a base;
- a backrest;
- shoulder restraints extending forward from the backrest; and
- head restraints extending forward from the backrest;
- wherein the shoulder restraints are adapted, in use, to restrain lateral movement of a seated occupant in the occupant's shoulder region and the head restraints are adapted, in use, to restrain lateral movement of the seated occupant's head.
- The invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a seat according to the invention; -
FIG. 2 is a rear perspective view of the seat ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 is a top view of the seat ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 4 is a first cross-section of the seat ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 5 is a side view of the seat ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 6 is a second cross-section of the seat ofFIG. 1 ; and -
FIG. 7 is a third cross-section of the seat ofFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a vehicle seat according to the invention. The seat includes abase 1 and abackrest 2. Thebase 1 includesthigh restraints 3 that extend upwardly from the base and restrain lateral movement of an occupant of the seat in the thigh region. Preferably the thigh restraints extend generally perpendicularly to the base. - Shoulder restraints 4 extend forward from the
backrest 2 and restrain lateral movement of the occupant in the shoulder region. Preferably the shoulder restraints extend generally perpendicular to the backrest and extend forward of the shoulder of a seated occupant, to effectively restrain lateral movement of the seated occupant. -
Head restraints 5 extend forward from thebackrest 2 and restrain lateral movement of the occupant's head. Preferably the head restraints extend approximately perpendicular to the backrest. - The seat includes a number of
fixture points - The seat includes
apertures - Preferably the seat comprises an integrally formed shell with padding, upholstery, coverings etc applied thereto. The outer edge of the shell is rolled to the outside along its perimeter, providing a strong, smooth edge.
-
FIG. 2 is a rear perspective view of the seat ofFIG. 1 . The seat includes abeam 20 that extends horizontally across thebackrest 2. The beam serves to strengthen the backrest and preferably extends forward along the shoulder restraints 4. Thebeam 20 also providesfixture points 8 adapted for fixing the seat to a vehicle roll cage or the like. Preferably thebeam 20 is formed integrally with thebackrest 2. - A
second beam 21 may also be provided, extending horizontally across the backrest and extending forward along the head restraints. This beam may be linked with thebeam 20 by avertical beam 22. Thebeams beams head restraints 5. -
FIG. 3 shows a top view of the seat ofFIG. 1 , showing thehead restraints 5 and shoulder restraints 4 extending forward from thebackrest 2.FIG. 4 is a cross-section through the seat, along the line G-G inFIG. 3 . -
FIG. 5 is a side view of the vehicle seat.FIG. 6 is a cross-section through the shoulder restraints 4, along the line F-F inFIG. 5 showing the profile ofbeam 20.FIG. 7 is a cross-section through thehead restraints 5, along the line H-H inFIG. 5 showing the profile ofbeam 21. - The invention provides a vehicle seat that provides effective restraint of lateral movement of a seated occupant in the shoulder region. The seat may also restrain the occupant in the head and thigh regions. As the seat is preferably integrally formed with one or more beams across the backrest, it is lightweight and strong. The seat is also more firmly fixed to the vehicle structure than prior seats. This leads to greater safety, but also allows a lighter seat with a less comprehensive framework.
