Anti-whiplash vehicle seat

Abstract

The invention relates to an anti-whiplash vehicle seat for a motor vehicle, with a rear backrest covering, wherein the rear backrest covering includes a fixed side part and a central part, wherein the central part is mechanically fastened to the vehicle seat by a resilient element, and wherein the resilient element is fastened to the vehicle seat by a hook.

1 . Vehicle seat for a motor vehicle with a rear backrest covering the rear backrest covering comprising:
 a fixed side part; and   a central part, wherein the central part is mechanically fastened to the vehicle seat by means of a resilient element fastened to the vehicle seat by means of a hook, wherein the resilient element and the spring are configured as a single piece.   
   
   
       2 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 1 , wherein the hook comprises an inwardly directed lug. 
   
   
       3 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 1 , wherein the hook comprises a hook-side supporting surface which, when the resilient element is subjected to a tensile loading, is pressed against a vehicle-seat-side supporting surface. 
   
   
       4 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 3 , wherein, when the resilient element is not subjected to a load, the hook-side supporting surface is inclined, in particular by at least 20°, in relation to the vehicle-seat-side supporting surface. 
   
   
       5 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 1 , wherein the resilient element is elastic only in one spring direction. 
   
   
       6 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 1 , wherein the resilient element comprises a U spring. 
   
   
       7 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 1 , wherein the resilient element is configured as a U spring. 
   
   
       8 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 6 , wherein the U spring comprises a rib for preventing the U spring from being compressed. 
   
   
       9 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 1 , wherein the central part is fastened in its upper region to the vehicle seat in the manner of a hinge. 
   
   
       10 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 1 , wherein the central part is fastened in its upper region to the vehicle seat manner such that it is pushed in. 
   
   
       11 . Vehicle seat for a motor vehicle with a rear backrest covering the rear backrest covering comprising:
 a fixed side part; and   a central part, wherein the central part is mechanically fastened to the vehicle seat by means of a resilient element, wherein the resilient element is elastic only in one spring direction.   
   
   
       12 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 11 , wherein the resilient element is configured as a U spring comprising a rib for preventing the U spring from being compressed. 
   
   
       13 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 11 , wherein the resilient element and the central part are configured as a single piece. 
   
   
       14 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 11 , wherein the central part is fastened in its upper region to the vehicle seat in the manner of a hinge. 
   
   
       15 . Vehicle seat according to  claim 11 , wherein the central part is fastened in its upper region to the vehicle seat in the manner such that it is pushed in. 
   
   
       16 . Vehicle seat for a motor vehicle with a rear backrest covering the rear backrest covering comprising:
 a fixed side part; and   a central part, wherein the central part is mechanically fastened to the vehicle seat by means of a resilient element, wherein the central part is fastened in its upper region to the vehicle seat in the manner of a hinge.   
   
   
       17 . Vehicle seat for a motor vehicle with a rear backrest covering the rear backrest covering comprising:
 a fixed side part; and   a central part, wherein the central part is mechanically fastened to the vehicle seat by means of a resilient element, wherein the central part is fastened in its upper region to the vehicle seat in the manner such that it is pushed in.   
   
   
       18 . Method for producing a vehicle seat having a rear backrest covering comprising a fixed side part and a central part, the method comprising the step of:
 pressing the central part in its lower region against the vehicle seat from the rear in such a manner that a hook which is connected to a resilient element latches into the vehicle seat, with the resilient element being connected to the central part.   
   
   
       19 . Method according to  claim 18 , the method further comprising the step of:
 pushing the central part in its upper region into the vehicle seat.   
   
   
       20 . Method according to  claim 18 , the method further comprising the step of:
 manufacturing the central part together with the resilient element as an injection moulded part.   
   
   
       21 . Method according to  claim 18 , the method further comprising the step of:
 manufacturing the central part together with the resilient element and the hook as an injection-moulded part.
