发明名称 Vehicle seat assembly
摘要 A vehicle seat assembly having adaptability for use as both a side facing seat positioned along the side walls of various model vehicles and as a front facing seat along the rear wall of various model vehicles. The assembly has a plurality of seat modules, the combination being any mix of the single occupant or double occupant variety. Each of the seat modules has a shell-like structure with a back portion and a seat portion, both of which have a concave outer contour configured to receive a human body. Side flanges are integrally formed along the edges of the seat and back portions. A plurality of end arm members are provided and each has a panel section and inwardly extending flanges for supportably contacting the side flanges of the seat module. The arm member flanges have a back portion support flange and a seat portion support flange. Interlocking structure is formed on the rear of the end arm members for engaging interlocking structure on the front of seat mounting adaptor members. The seat modules are molded from polycarbonate structural foam. The interlocking structure on the rear of the end arm member is a pair of spaced vertical channels that receive a pair of spaced vertically extended ridges on the seat mounting adaptor members. The interlocking structure also has a plurality of vertically spaced T-shaped fingers on the rear of the arm member that are horizontally oriented to interlock with the plurality of vertically spaced T-shaped slots on the front of the seat mounting adaptor members. By using seat mounting adaptor members of various lengths, the standard seat modules may be used to form various vehicle seat assemblies that would have a different lateral spacing from the vehicle side wall.
