A vehicle seat includes a seat-cushion frame supported on a vehicle body, a fastener fixed to the seat-cushion frame in a lateral direction, an absorption member supported by the fastener inserted in the absorption member, a seat-back frame supported via the absorption member, and a seat back fixed to the seat-back frame.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A vehicle seat, comprising: a seat-cushion frame supported on a vehicle body; a seat-back frame; a seat back fixed to the seat-back frame; a bolt fixed to the seat-cushion frame in a lateral direction; an inner tube fixed to the bolt; an outer tube fixed to the seat-back frame; and an absorption member supported by the inner tube and the outer tube between the inner tube and the outer tube, wherein the seat-cushion frame and the seat-back frame are in indirect contact with each other such that any vibration in the seat-cushion frame must pass through the absorption member before reaching the seat-back frame, and wherein the absorption member is configured to absorb vibrations in the lateral direction. 2. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the absorption member has a spring constant in a longitudinal direction being five times greater than a spring constant of the absorption member in the lateral direction. 3. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the absorption member has a ring shape and is arranged with an axial direction of the absorption member coinciding with the lateral direction.
