24、cupant H-Point, comfort and appearance are most important to the customer Most engineering efforts concentrate on these items A good design is always a compromise between these demands Enter prototype builds with solid EXPECTATIONS of performance Analysis replaces “find-and-fix”,Significance of H-Po
25、int,H-Point is one of several parameters that define manikins position in seat H-Point is in part determined by “eyellipse” Failing to meet H-Point means other controls may not meet government requirements Always remember balance and interplay of H-Point Comfort Appearance,Torso Angle and A Surface,

31、h America,Dual Sided Recliner,Single-sided vs. Dual-sided,Decide to use either single-sided or dual-sided recliners during layout and packaging Dual-sided recliners attach to each side of backframe Single-sided recliners have a single switch and a slave hinge or pivot on the other side Load path is
32、different depending on recliner chosen Load travels through the recliner Dual-sided recliners split load equally on both sides Single-sided recliners pass loads only through recliner side,Advantages,Reduction of part count, since many components can be symmetrical between driver and passenger seats
33、Back frame is lighter since loads are shared. Strong torsional member is not required. Back frame is common between driver and passenger seats Foam pads and even trim covers and plastic panels can be common between driver and passenger seats More torsional rigidity is achieved It is easier to defend
34、 the OEMs position in a court of law from a due care point of view. Many OEMs, especially the Japanese, have taken this position.,Disadvantages,Cost and weight of an extra recliner, although partially or wholly offset by the reduction in the back frame cost and weight. Also offset by reduction in nu
35、mber of parts. Packaging a dual sided frame is often more difficult Synchronization of the two recliners is difficult in the assembly of the seat. (Many times dual recliners are welded to the backframe) Shipment and transportation of welded sub-assemblies can create other issues With two recliners,
36、operating efforts generally are higher For dual rotary recliners there is a higher potential for seat judder or roughness upon operation,Adjuster Selection,Can be chosen after it is understood how backframe load gets carried to adjuster Used to only handle seat loads Must withstand much more load wi
37、th traveling inboard buckles (TIB) JCI is not responsible for seat belt buckle, but JCI is responsible for interfaces between seat and belt buckle Studies must be done to determine proper location and attachment method to ensure proper function,Adjuster Construction,Adjuster Latching,Most are lever-

39、lose to simultaneously as possible,Gravity Balancing Springs,Adjuster angle specified by customer No reason to change without compelling reason If adjuster angle exceeds 6 degrees, then review design Gravity balancing springs help in moving seat forward if angle is too steep Assists forward movement
