Description

FahrzeugsitzVehicle seat

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fahrzeugsitz mit einer integrierten Insassenrückhaltevorrichtung. The invention relates to a vehicle seat with an integrated occupant restraint device.

Bei einem Unfall werden Fahrzeuginsassen heutzutage standardmäßig von einem Sicherheitsgurt auf dem Fahrzeugsitz zurückgehalten. Um das Durchtauchen des Fahrzeuginsassen unter dem Beckengurtabschnitt des Sicherheitsgurts, dem sogenannten Submarining-Effekt, zu verringern, ist es bekannt, einen Abschnitt des Sitzpolsters des Fahrzeugsitzes bei einer starken Fahrzeugverzögerung, wie sie etwa bei einem Unfall auftritt, anzuheben. Hierzu kommen meist pyrotechnische Vorrichtungen zum Einsatz.In the event of an accident, vehicle occupants are now held back in their vehicle seats by a seat belt as standard. In order to reduce the risk of the vehicle occupant diving under the lap section of the seat belt, the so-called submarining effect, it is known to raise a section of the seat cushion of the vehicle seat in the event of a strong vehicle deceleration, such as occurs in an accident. Pyrotechnic devices are usually used for this purpose.

Die Erfindung schafft eine Alternative eines Sitzes mit integrierter Insassenrückhaltevorrichtung. The invention provides an alternative seat with an integrated occupant restraint device.

Bei einem oben genannten Fahrzeugsitz ist hierzu an dem Fahrzeugsitz wenigstens ein Elektromotor vorgesehen, der mit einer Steuereinheit verbunden ist. Der Elektromotor ist so ausgelegt, daß er einen Abschnitt des Sitzpolsters bei einem Unfall abrupt anhebt. Es hat sich gezeigt, daß kommerzielle, schnell anlaufende bürstenlose Gleichstrommotoren dazu geeignet sind, auch in der kurzen, bei einem Unfall zur Verfügung stehenden Zeit einen Abschnitt des Sitzpolsters zuverlässig um einen genügenden Betrag anzuheben. Der Vorteil der Verwendung von Elektromotoren gegenüber pyrotechnischen Vorrichtungen liegtIn the case of a vehicle seat mentioned above, at least one electric motor is provided on the vehicle seat, which is connected to a control unit. The electric motor is designed in such a way that it abruptly raises a section of the seat cushion in the event of an accident. It has been shown that commercial, fast-starting brushless DC motors are suitable for reliably raising a section of the seat cushion by a sufficient amount, even in the short time available in the event of an accident. The advantage of using electric motors over pyrotechnic devices is

unter anderem darin, daß das System reversibel betrieben werden kann, so daß nach einer Aktivierung kein Austausch von Bauteilen erforderlich ist. Außerdem kann die Zahl der pyrotechnischen Vorrichtungen im Fahrzeug verringert werden.Among other things, the system can be operated reversibly, so that no components need to be replaced after activation. In addition, the number of pyrotechnic devices in the vehicle can be reduced.

Es sind Fahrzeugsitze bekannt, bei denen sämtliche konventionellen Einstellmöglichkeiten wie z.B. die Position und Höhe des Sitzpolsters über Elektromotoren nach den Vorgaben des Insassen einstellbar sind. Bevorzugt ist der Fahrzeugsitz so ausgelegt, daß wenigstens einer der einen Teil der Rückhaltevorrichtung bildenden Elektromotoren, die den Abschnitt des Sitzpolsters bei einem Unfall anzuheben, zugleich auch der normalen Sitzverstellung dient. Auf diese Weise braucht die Anzahl der Bauteile nicht erhöht zu werden.Vehicle seats are known in which all conventional adjustment options, such as the position and height of the seat cushion, can be adjusted using electric motors according to the occupant's specifications. The vehicle seat is preferably designed in such a way that at least one of the electric motors forming part of the restraint device, which raises the section of the seat cushion in the event of an accident, also serves for normal seat adjustment. In this way, the number of components does not need to be increased.

Um das Durchtauchen des Fahrzeuginsassen unter dem Beckengurtabschnittsicherheitsgurts zuverlässig zu verhindern, ist der anhebbare Abschnitt der vordere Teil des Sitzpolsters, der der Auflage der Oberschenkel des Fahrzeuginsassen dient.In order to reliably prevent the vehicle occupant from diving under the lap belt section safety belt, the liftable section is the front part of the seat cushion which serves to support the thighs of the vehicle occupant.

Der Elektromotor kann innerhalb des Fahrzeugsitzes angeordnet sein, so daß er zusammen mit dem Fahrzeugsitz eine vormontierte Einheit bildet. Es ist aber auch denkbar, die Elektromotoren extern mit dem Sitz zu verbinden.The electric motor can be arranged inside the vehicle seat so that it forms a pre-assembled unit together with the vehicle seat. However, it is also conceivable to connect the electric motors externally to the seat.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist der Elektromotor mit einem Pre-Crash-Sensor verbunden, auf dessen Signal hin das abrupte Anheben des Sitzpolsters erfolgt. Ein Pre-Crash-Sensor erfaßt bereits potentiell gefährliche Situationen und kann so einen Unfall in vielen Fällen sozusagen vorausahnen.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the electric motor is connected to a pre-crash sensor, the signal from which causes the seat cushion to be abruptly raised. A pre-crash sensor detects potentially dangerous situations and can thus anticipate an accident in many cases.

Hierdurch verlängert sich die Reaktionszeit der Sicherheitssysteme um eine relevante Zeitspanne. Da das Anheben des Abschnitts des Sitzpolsters durch den Elektromotor reversibel erfolgt, entsteht auch kein Schaden, falls es trotz Ansprechen des Pre-Crash-Sensors nicht zu einem Unfall kommt. In diesem Fall kann das Sitzpolster einfach automatisch oder durch den Fahrzeuginsassen in seine normale Position zurückgefahren werden.This extends the reaction time of the safety systems by a significant amount of time. Since the electric motor lifts the section of the seat cushion reversibly, no damage occurs even if an accident does not occur despite the pre-crash sensor being triggered. In this case, the seat cushion can simply be moved back to its normal position automatically or by the vehicle occupant.

Der oder die Elektromotor(en), optional die Steuereinheit und ein eventueller Pre-Crash-Sensor, sind bevorzugt Teil eines Fahrzeugsicherheitssystems, das auch Gurtstraffer, Gassäcke und entsprechende Steuereinheiten umfassen kann.The electric motor(s), optionally the control unit and any pre-crash sensor, are preferably part of a vehicle safety system, which may also include belt tensioners, gas bags and corresponding control units.

Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels in Verbindung mit der beigefügten Zeichnung. Die einzige Figur zeigt einen schematischen Querschnitt eines erfindungsgemäßen Fahrzeugsitzes.Further features and advantages of the invention emerge from the following description of an embodiment in conjunction with the accompanying drawing. The single figure shows a schematic cross section of a vehicle seat according to the invention.

Der gezeigte Fahrzeugsitz 10 weist ein Sitzpolster 12 (der Teil des Sitzes, auf dem Gesäß und Oberschenkel ruhen) und eine damit verbundene Rückenlehne 14 auf. Ein Fahrzeuginsasse 16 sitzt so auf dem Fahrzeugsitz 10, daß seine Oberschenkel 18 auf dem vorderen Teil des Sitzpolsters 12 aufliegen.The vehicle seat 10 shown has a seat cushion 12 (the part of the seat on which the buttocks and thighs rest) and a backrest 14 connected thereto. A vehicle occupant 16 sits on the vehicle seat 10 such that his thighs 18 rest on the front part of the seat cushion 12.

Im oder unter dem Sitzpolster 12 ist wenigstens ein Elektromotor 20 angeordnet (in der Figur angedeutet), der so ausgelegt ist, daß er einen vorderen Abschnitt 22 des Sitzpolsters 12 nach oben, d.h. in Richtung der Oberschenkel 18 des Fahrzeuginsassen 16 anheben kann (siehe Pfeil), wenn eine Unfallsituation, d.h. eine extreme Verzögerung des Fahrzeuges, auftritt. Hierzu weist der Elektromotor 20 eine Aufwickelwelle 26 auf, die bei Drehung ein Seil 28 aufwickelt, das an einer schwenkbar gelagerten Platte 30 befestigt ist. Durch Drehen der Aufwickelwelle 26 wird die Platte 30, die unterhalb des vorderen Abschnitts des Sitzpolsters 12 angeordnet ist, nach oben geschwenkt, wie mit unterbrochenen Linien dargestellt. Damit wird auch der vordere Teil des Sitzpolsters nach oben gedrückt, wie mit unterbrochenen Linien dargestellt und die Oberschenkel und der Beckenbereich des Insassen werden an einer Vorverlagerung gehindert.At least one electric motor 20 is arranged in or under the seat cushion 12 (indicated in the figure), which is designed in such a way that it can lift a front section 22 of the seat cushion 12 upwards, i.e. in the direction of the thighs 18 of the vehicle occupant 16 (see arrow), when an accident situation occurs, i.e. an extreme deceleration of the vehicle. For this purpose, the electric motor 20 has a winding shaft 26, which when rotated winds up a cable 28 that is attached to a pivotably mounted plate 30. By rotating the winding shaft 26, the plate 30, which is arranged below the front section of the seat cushion 12, is pivoted upwards, as shown with broken lines. This also pushes the front part of the seat cushion upwards, as shown with broken lines, and the thighs and pelvic area of the occupant are prevented from moving forwards.

Der Elektromotor wird von einer Steuereinheit 21 angesprochen, wenn diese erkennt, daß eine Unfallsituation vorliegt.The electric motor is activated by a control unit 21 when it detects that an accident situation exists.

In der gezeigten Ausführungsform ist die Steuereinheit 21 außerdem mit einem Pre-Crash-Sensor 24 verbunden, der so ausgebildet ist, daß er potentiell gefährliche Situationen erfaßt und ein Signal übermittelt, aufgrund dessen der Elektromotor 20 den Abschnitt 22 des Sitzpolsters 12 anhebt (in gestricheltenIn the embodiment shown, the control unit 21 is also connected to a pre-crash sensor 24, which is designed to detect potentially dangerous situations and transmit a signal, based on which the electric motor 20 raises the portion 22 of the seat cushion 12 (in dashed lines

Linien dargestellt), so daß der Fahrzeuginsasse 16 bei einem Unfall nicht unter einem (nicht gezeigten) Beckengurt eines Sicherheitsgurtes hindurchtauchen kann.lines) so that the vehicle occupant 16 cannot dive under a lap belt of a safety belt (not shown) in the event of an accident.

Nach dem Unfall oder, im Fall der Verwendung eines Pre-Crash-Sensors, bei einem nicht erfolgten Unfall kann der Elektromotor 20 den Abschnitt 22 wieder in seine Normalposition (in durchgezogenen Linien gezeigt) zurückfahren. Das System ist prinzipiell beliebig oft wiederverwendbar.After the accident or, in the case of the use of a pre-crash sensor, if an accident does not occur, the electric motor 20 can move the section 22 back to its normal position (shown in solid lines). In principle, the system can be reused as often as desired.

Bevorzugt ist der Elektromotor 20 auch Teil des elektrischen Sitzverstellmechanismus, mit dem der Insasse die Stellung des Sitzpolsters für den normalen Fahrbetrieb anpassen kann. Der Elektromotor 20 wird hierbei über Schalter 40 vom Insassen angesteuert, so daß durch Schwenken der Platte 30 die Sitzneigung verstellt wird. Andere Elektromotoren zur Sitzhöhenverstellung und Sitzverschiebung in Längsrichtung sind nicht dargestellt, können aber im Bereich des Fahrzeugrahmens oder unterhalb des Sitzpolsters angeordnet sein. Auch diese Motoren können dazu eingesetzt werden, bei einem Unfall den Fahrzeugsitz 10 eine bestimmte, für den Fahrzeuginsassen 16 günstige Position einnehmen zu lassen. Das beschriebene Anheben des vorderen Abschnitts 22 des Sitzpolsters 12 ist nur als beispielhafte Maßnahme aufgeführt. Auch eine Veränderung der Stellung der Rückenlehne oder der Position des Fahrzeugsitzes wären z.B. denkbar.Preferably, the electric motor 20 is also part of the electric seat adjustment mechanism, with which the occupant can adjust the position of the seat cushion for normal driving. The electric motor 20 is controlled by the occupant via switch 40, so that the seat inclination is adjusted by pivoting the plate 30. Other electric motors for seat height adjustment and seat displacement in the longitudinal direction are not shown, but can be arranged in the area of the vehicle frame or underneath the seat cushion. These motors can also be used to allow the vehicle seat 10 to assume a certain position that is favorable for the vehicle occupant 16 in the event of an accident. The described raising of the front section 22 of the seat cushion 12 is only mentioned as an example measure. A change in the position of the backrest or the position of the vehicle seat would also be conceivable, for example.

Der oder die Elektromotoren sind vorzugsweise hochdrehende Gleichstrommotoren, die bürstenlos und als Innenläufer ausgeführt sind. Ein solcher Gleichstrommotor ist beispielsweise aus der DE 201 06 478 bekannt.The electric motor(s) are preferably high-speed DC motors that are brushless and designed as internal rotors. Such a DC motor is known, for example, from DE 201 06 478.
