Proposal of a Mechanism for Car Seat Movement

Abstract

This article is focused on the height adjustment of a front car seat. The goal was to design seat movement in pure vertical direction. The article begins with a theoretical introduction, in which the functions and parts of car seats were described. The next part contains possible schematic designs of a mechanism, as well as the reasons for possible changes of the contemporary mechanisms. Afterwards, some functional parameters of the chosen schematically-designed mechanism were calculated, the results could then be used for further calculations needed for the creation of a three-dimensional model of the mechanism. The article deals mainly with the theoretical principles, and there are many further possibilities for development within the subject.

Novel Microwave-Assisted Method of Y2Ti2O7 Powder Synthesis

“…Besides this work, the search for alternative production methods aimed to reduce energy consumption and manufacturing costs is one of the most pressing engineering problems. This progress can be seen in many areas of the economy, e.g., in the transport and the automotive industry [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ], machinery industry [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ], biotechnology and medicine [ 24 , 25 , 26 ], as well as the energy or electronic sector [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 ]. Moreover, development in the above-mentioned sectors contributes to the improvement of the quality of human life and environmental protection, which is particularly important nowadays.…”

Proposal of a Method for Detection of a Damaged Hydraulic Shock Absorber in a Vehicle's Suspension System

“…The suspension system of a vehicle affects the running safety, ride comfort for passengers and loading of a track [12][13][14][15]. If the suspension system works properly, it ensures the constant contact of wheels with a track.…”
