A vehicle seat with a pelvis energy management device which is activated in the event of a collision and is propelled towards the occupant's upper legs and pelvis, crushing the seat foam between it and the occupant and applying a restraining force to the occupant before significant movement of the occupant (relative to the seat) has occurred. The pelvis energy management comprises an upper deformable structure (22) which may be in the form of a pan, plate, can or honeycomb like structure which in the event of a collision is displaced by a volumetric chamber (24, 25) filled with gas from a gas generator (18) like an conventional airbag. |
