In other words, it is provided in the contour portion. Furthermore, the first stopper portion 131 and the second stopper portion 132 are provided on the side surface 102 that surrounds the output shaft 52 </ b> C that is the rotation shaft of the drive link member 100. Specifically, the first stopper portion 131 is directed substantially forward from the front side of the elongated body portion 101 when the drive link member 100 is in the posture shown in FIG. 9 (when the pressure receiving member 40 is in the initial position). The surface which protrudes and contacts the fixed stopper member 70 is provided so as to be substantially flat. Further, the second stopper portion 132 is provided so as to protrude substantially leftward from the rear side of the main body portion 101 and have a substantially flat surface in contact with the fixed stopper member 70.

Here, the configuration of the fixed stopper member 70 will be described.
The fixed stopper member 70 is a member that restricts the rotation of the drive link member 100 when the stopper portion 130 abuts, and is fixed to the side frame 20.

The drive link member 100 is restricted from turning forward by the first stopper 131 coming into contact with the front turning restricting portion 73 (see FIG. 11C), and the second stopper. When the part 132 is in contact with the rear side rotation restricting part 73, the rotation to the side to be rotated later is restricted. Since the rotation restricting portion 73 is formed of resin, the contact noise between the stopper portion 130 and the fixed stopper member 70 can be suppressed, and the operation sound of the drive link member 100 can be suppressed.

  Further, each rotation restricting portion 73 is disposed within a substantially circular outline of the drive source 52 when viewed from the axial direction of the output shaft 52C. Thereby, since the enlargement of the drive link member 100 which has the stopper part 130 which can contact | abut to the rotation control part 73 in the side surface 102 can be suppressed, the drive link member 100 can be made into a compact structure.

  The output shaft 52C is disposed to face the opening 74 of the U-shaped fixed stopper member 70 when viewed from the axial direction. Thereby, since the drive link member 100 and the fixed stopper member 70 can be disposed close to the left and right direction, the periphery of the drive link member 100 can be made compact.

  The stopper portion 130 has a length from the rotation center C1 to the rotation center C2 of the abutment link member 200 with the rotation center C1 of the drive link member 100 as the center, as viewed from the axial direction of the output shaft 52C. It arrange | positions inside the circle C shown with the dashed-dotted line made into a radius. Thereby, since the enlargement of the drive link member 100 can be suppressed, the drive link member 100 can have a compact configuration.

Specifically, the drive link member 100 constituting the left drive mechanism 50 shown in FIG. 9 is configured so that the right drive mechanism 50 can also be used by reversing the front and back sides. This configuration is possible because the stopper portion 130 is not provided on the side surface 102 of the plate-like drive link member 100 and protrudes only on one side in the axial direction. is there. By sharing parts, it is possible to reduce the number of parts and the trouble of parts management, so that the cost can be reduced. Further, it is possible to prevent the right and left parts from being mixed and to facilitate assembly.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the contact link member 200 is a member formed in an elongated shape, and includes a stopper 210 and a pin hole 220 provided at one end portion, and a contact portion 230 provided at the other end portion. And a through-hole 240 provided between the pin hole 220 and the contact portion 230. The contact link member 200 is provided so as to be able to rotate substantially forward and backward with respect to the drive link member 100 by engaging the pin 54 with the pin hole 220 and the pin hole 120 of the drive link member 100. Further, the contact link member 200 is connected to the pressure receiving member 40 via the upper connection wire W1 by inserting the end portion of the upper connection wire W1 into the through hole 240.

  The contact portion 230 is a portion that contacts the pressure receiving member 40 when the pressure receiving member 40 is operated by the drive source 52. As shown in FIG. 9, the contact portion 230 has a convex curved surface shape when viewed from the rotation axis direction of the contact link member 200, and further, a direction orthogonal to the rotation axis direction as shown in FIG. 10. As seen from the above, it has a convex curved surface shape. More specifically, the contact portion 230 has a substantially spherical shape.

  The pressure receiving member 40 has a gap with the contact portion 230 when no load is input from the occupant at the initial position indicated by the solid line in FIG. 9 (when no occupant is seated on the vehicle seat S). When the occupant is seated on the vehicle seat S and a load is input from the occupant at the initial position, the support portion 42 is deformed as indicated by a two-dot chain line to the contact portion 230. Abut. As a result, the pressure receiving member 40 can be deformed and moved until the pressure receiving member 40 hits the contact portion 230, so that the cushioning property of the seat back S2 can be improved. The pressure receiving member 40 has a contacted surface 43 with which the contact portion 230 can contact the rear surface of the support portion 42, and the contacted surface 43 is a rotation shaft of the contact link member 200. It has a concave curved surface shape when viewed from the direction.

  The stopper 210 is a part that abuts against the side surface 102 of the drive link member 100 and regulates the amount of rotation to the side that rotates after the contact link member 200 (see FIGS. 11C and 13C). . The stopper 210 protrudes from one end portion of the contact link member 200 and is bent from the tip of the protruding portion to the lower side where the drive link member 100 is disposed.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the abutment link member 200 includes a link body 201 formed in a long plate shape and a covering member 202 that covers the entire link body 201. The link body 201 and the covering member 202 are formed of different materials. Specifically, in the abutment link member 200, the link main body 201 is formed of metal and the covering member 202 is formed of resin by insert molding or the like. The through hole 240 is provided so as to penetrate the link body 201 and the covering member 202. The contact portion 230 is provided on the covering member 202 and is configured as a part of the covering member 202. Thereby, the contact part 230 is formed from resin.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the contact link member 200 is formed such that the length from the rotation center C2 to the contact portion 230 is longer than the length from the rotation center C2 to the rotation center C1 of the drive link member 100. Has been.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, a torsion spring 55 as an urging member is disposed between the drive link member 100 and the contact link member 200. The torsion spring 55 is a member that biases the abutting link member 200 forward (one direction), and extends outward in the radial direction from the upper end of the coil portion 55A and the coil portion 55A. It has a substantially L-shaped first arm portion 55B that extends, and an L-shaped second arm portion 55C that extends radially outward from the lower end of the coil portion 55A and extends downward.

  In the torsion spring 55, the coil portion 55A is engaged with the pin 54, and as shown in FIG. 9, the first arm portion 55B, which is one end thereof, is hooked on the first stopper portion 131 of the drive link member 100, and the other end The second arm portion 55 </ b> C is hooked on the stopper 210 of the contact link member 200. Thereby, the torsion spring 55 generates an urging force for rotating the contact link member 200 in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG.

  The torsion spring 55 and the upper connecting wire W1 as the connecting wire are members that restrict the rearward rotation of the abutment link member 200, in other words, members that serve as resistance to the rearward rotation (rotation resistance member). It is functioning. Specifically, the torsion spring 55 urges the contact link member 200 toward the front rotation side, thereby restricting the contact link member 200 from rotating backward.

  The upper connecting wire W1 is bent at both left and right end portions obliquely forward, and the end portion extending downward is connected to the through hole 240 of the contact link member 200. The contact link member 200 is connected. And the connection part C3 of the contact link member 200 and the pressure receiving member 40 is arrange | positioned ahead of the rotation center C2 of the contact link member 200 in the state in which the pressure receiving member 40 exists in the initial position shown in FIG. Thus, the upper connecting wire W1 urges the contact link member 200 to rotate forward, thereby restricting the contact link member 200 from rotating backward.

  The connecting portion C3 is disposed inside a circle C indicated by a one-dot chain line when the pressure receiving member 40 is in the initial position shown in FIG. 9 when viewed from the rotation axis direction of the contact link member 200. The connecting portion C3 is disposed on the outer side in the left-right direction with respect to the rotation center C2 of the contact link member 200 in a state where the pressure receiving member 40 is in the initial position.

  The drive mechanism 50 described above is provided so that the left and right operate independently of each other. Specifically, the drive source 52 is controlled by the control device 80 so that the left and right are driven independently of each other, and the drive link member 100 and the contact link member 200 of the coupling mechanism 51 are independent of each other on the right and left It is provided so that rotation is possible. That is, in the drive mechanism 50, for example, when the left drive link member 100 and the contact link member 200 rotate, the right drive link member 100 and the contact link member 200 also rotate in conjunction with each other. It is not configured.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the control device 80 is configured to turn the pressure receiving member 40 in the seat back S2 in the turning direction by controlling the drive of the drive source 52 (motor 52A) (FIG. 5). 12 (c)). Various methods can be adopted as the control method by the control device 80. For example, the lateral acceleration and the turning direction are calculated based on signals from the wheel speed sensor and the steering angle sensor, and the calculated lateral acceleration has a predetermined threshold value. When exceeding, the motor 52A of the drive mechanism 50 outside the turning direction is driven, and thereby the direction of the pressure receiving member 40 is directed to the turning direction.

  In the present embodiment, the control device 80 monitors the current flowing through the motor 52A while the motor 52A is being driven, and stops energization of the motor 52A when the current flowing through the motor 52A exceeds a predetermined value set in advance. Thus, the driving of the motor 52A is stopped. When the drive link member 100 rotates and the stopper portion 130 comes into contact with the fixed stopper member 70, the motor 52A stops and the current flowing through the motor 52A increases. The control device 80 stops energization of the motor 52A by detecting this state. Thereby, the stopper part 130 can be made to function suitably with a simple structure, and the rotation amount of the drive link member 100 can be prescribed | regulated accurately.

Next, operations of the drive mechanism 50 and the pressure receiving member 40 when the vehicle is turning will be described.
When the vehicle turns to the right, the control device 80 drives the drive source 52 of the left drive mechanism 50. Then, from the state shown in FIG. 11A, as shown in FIGS. 11B and 11C, the drive link member 100 rotates forward, and the abutment link member 200 moves relative to the drive link member 100. Move forward while rotating. As a result, the left end portion (connecting portion C3) of the upper connecting wire W1 moves forward, and the left support portion 42 (left end portion) of the pressure receiving member 40 is moved from the initial position to the forward advance position.

  Then, when the first stopper portion 131 of the drive link member 100 abuts against the rotation restricting portion 73 on the front side of the fixed stopper member 70, the rotation of the drive link member 100 is restricted, and the stopper 210 of the contact link member 200. Is brought into contact with the side surface 102 of the drive link member 100, whereby the rotation of the contact link member 200 is restricted. At this time, since the current flowing through the drive source 52 exceeds a predetermined value, the control device 80 stops the drive of the drive source 52.

  Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 12A to 12C, the pressure receiving member 40 turns to the right as a turning direction as a whole when the left end portion moves from the initial position to the advanced position. As a result, the centrifugal force applied to the occupant during turning can be suitably supported by the seat back S2.

  In this embodiment, since the coupling mechanism 51 is composed of two drive link members 100 and a contact link member 200, the upper link wire W1 is attached to one link member, for example, the drive link member 100 shown in FIG. Compared to the case of directly connecting and moving the pressure receiving member 40 back and forth, the amount of stroke before and after the left end portion of the upper connecting wire W1 can be increased. Thereby, since the movement amount (inclination amount) of the pressure receiving member 40 can be ensured, the centrifugal force applied to the occupant by the pressure receiving member 40 during turning can be better supported.

  In the present embodiment, the connecting portion C3 is disposed on the outer side in the left-right direction with respect to the rotation center C2 with the pressure receiving member 40 in the initial position, and the contact link member 200 is moved forward by the upper connecting wire W1 or the like. Since it is urged | biased by the side to rotate, the contact link member 200 becomes difficult to rotate back. Thereby, when the pressure receiving member 40 is moved from the initial position to the advanced position, the tip end of the contact link member 200 does not fluctuate, so that the pressure receiving member 40 can be moved stably.

  When the vehicle returns from the turning state to the straight traveling state, the control device 80 drives the drive source 52 of the left drive mechanism 50 in the direction opposite to that during turning. Then, as shown in FIGS. 11B and 11A, the drive link member 100 rotates backward from the state shown in FIG. Then, the contact link member 200 moves backward while rotating with respect to the drive link member 100 due to a load applied to the pressure receiving member 40 from the occupant. As a result, the left end portion of the upper connecting wire W1 moves rearward, and the left support portion 42 of the pressure receiving member 40 is moved from the advance position to the initial position.

  The rotation of the drive link member 100 is restricted by the second stopper portion 132 of the drive link member 100 coming into contact with the rotation restricting portion 73 on the rear side of the fixed stopper member 70. At this time, since the current flowing through the drive source 52 exceeds a predetermined value, the control device 80 stops the drive of the drive source 52. As a result, the pressure receiving member 40 returns from the state facing right as shown in FIG. 12C to the state facing forward as shown in FIG.

  On the other hand, when the vehicle turns to the left, the control device 80 drives the drive source 52 of the right drive mechanism 50. Subsequent operations of the pressure receiving member 40 and the right driving mechanism 50 are the same as in the case of right-turning, and thus detailed description thereof is omitted.

  In the present embodiment, the pressure-receiving member 40 has the contact surface 43 abutted against the contact portion 230 after an occupant sits on the vehicle seat S and contacts the contact portion 230 of the contact link member 200. It arrange | positions so that it may contact | abut in the whole range of the rotation range of the contact link member 200. FIG. Accordingly, the rotation of the contact link member 200 is guided by the pressure receiving member 40, so that the contact link member 200 can be operated smoothly.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, since the contact part 230 and the pressure receiving member 40 are formed from resin, the sliding contact sound and abrasion with the contact link member 200 and the pressure receiving member 40 can be suppressed. Furthermore, since the contacted surface 43 has a concave curved surface shape, the contact pressure between the contact portion 230 and the contacted surface 43 is lowered, so that the wear of the contact link member 200 and the pressure receiving member 40 is further suppressed. Can do.

  Next, the operation of the drive mechanism 50 and the pressure receiving member 40 at the time of rear collision will be described. Here, the time of a rear collision is a time when another vehicle collides with the rear part of the host vehicle or when the rear part of the host vehicle that moves backward collides with another vehicle or a structure.

  As shown in FIG. 13 (a), when the pressure receiving member 40 is in the initial position and the rear collision does not occur, it is normal (when a load less than a predetermined value is input from the occupant to the pressure receiving member 40). Since the rearward rotation of the contact link member 200 is restricted by the connecting wire W1 or the like, the pressure receiving member 40 does not move greatly backward from the initial position.

  On the other hand, when a rear collision occurs and a large load greater than or equal to a predetermined value is input to the pressure receiving member 40 from the occupant, the pressure receiving member 40 moves rearward due to the large load, and the end of the upper connecting wire W1 is brought into contact with the contact link member 200 (connecting part C3) is pulled backward. Then, as shown in FIG. 13B, the abutment link member 200 rotates backward while elastically deforming the upper connecting wire W1 and the pressure receiving member 40 inward in the left-right direction, whereby the pressure receiving member 40 is further rearward. To move from the initial position to the retracted position shown in FIG. Then, when the pressure receiving member 40 moves to the retracted position, the stopper 210 of the contact link member 200 contacts the side surface 102 of the drive link member 100, whereby the rotation of the contact link member 200 is restricted, and the pressure receiving member 40. This also restricts the backward movement.

  As shown in FIGS. 14A to 14C, when the pressure receiving member 40 moves from the initial position to the retracted position, the upper body of the occupant sinks into the seat back S2. As a result, the head of the occupant can be quickly brought close to the headrest S3 and received by the headrest S3, so that the impact applied to the occupant's neck during a rear-end collision can be reduced.

  In this embodiment, when the contact link member 200 includes the stopper 210, it is possible to prevent the contact link member 200 from rotating too far backward. Thereby, for example, it is possible to adjust the sinking amount of the occupant into the seat back S2, and to easily return the pressure receiving member 40 moved to the retracted position to the initial position.

  As shown in FIG. 13C, the connecting portion C3 is disposed behind the rotation center C2 of the contact link member 200 in a state where the pressure receiving member 40 is in the retracted position. At this time, the upper connecting wire W1 functions as a member that urges the contact link member 200 in the direction indicated by the arrow, specifically, a member (second urging member) that urges the contact link member 200 toward the side that rotates later. To do. Thereby, since the pressure receiving member 40 moved to the retracted position by the rear collision can be kept at the retracted position, it is possible to suppress the pressure receiving member 40 from moving forward due to the reaction when moving to the retracted position.

  According to the vehicle seat S described above, the drive mechanism 50 changes the direction of the pressure receiving member 40 when turning and supports the occupant appropriately, and the occupant moves the pressure receiving member 40 to the retracted position during a rear collision. Both functions of mitigating the applied impact can be realized. This eliminates the need to provide both a mechanism for changing the direction of the pressure receiving member and a mechanism for enabling the pressure receiving member to move backward in the seat back S2, thereby securing a space in the seat back S2 and arranging other mechanisms. Or the vehicle seat S can be made compact, and the degree of freedom in designing the vehicle seat S can be improved.

  Further, by providing the upper connecting wire W1 or the torsion spring 55 as a rotation resistance member that serves as a resistance to the rearward rotation of the contact link member 200, it is possible to suppress the pressure receiving member 40 from moving to the retracted position at the normal time. can do.

  Further, since the connecting portion C3 is disposed inside the circle C with the pressure receiving member 40 in the initial position, the deformation amount of the upper connecting wire W1 when the pressure receiving member 40 moves to the retracted position is reduced, The enlargement of the upper connecting wire W1 can be suppressed.

  Further, since the contact portion 230 having a convex curved surface shape when viewed from the rotation axis direction is provided at the tip of the contact link member 200, the contact portion 230 and the pressure receiving member in the rotation direction of the contact link member 200 are provided. And the contact link member 200 and the pressure receiving member 40 can be operated smoothly during turning and rear collision. Further, since the contact portion 230 has a convex curved surface shape when viewed from the direction orthogonal to the rotation axis direction, the sliding resistance can be reduced also in the rotation axis direction of the contact link member 200. For example, the pressure receiving member 40 The pressure receiving member 40 and the like can be operated smoothly when the valve moves up and down. Furthermore, since the abutting portion 230 has a substantially spherical shape, the sliding resistance can be reduced in all directions, and when the abutting link member 200 and the pressure receiving member 40 abut on each other, the abutting link member 200 or the like is performed. It can be operated smoothly.

  Further, since the upper connection wire W1 is connected to the contact link member 200 by being inserted through the through hole 240, the contact link member 200 and the upper connection wire W1 can be easily connected.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 11, the drive link member 100 has a stopper portion 130, and the stopper portion 130 abuts on the fixed stopper member 70, thereby restricting the rotation of the drive link member 100. Compared with the configuration in which the rotation amount of the link member is defined by driving and stopping the stepping motor, the rotation amount of the drive link member 100 can be defined with high accuracy. Further, the amount of rotation of the drive link member 100 can be accurately defined with a simple and low-cost configuration as compared with the case of using a stepping motor. Moreover, since the stopper part 130 has the 1st stopper part 131 and the 2nd stopper part 132, in the case where both the case where the drive link member 100 rotates in one direction, and the case where it rotates in a reverse direction, the rotation amount Can be defined with high accuracy.

  Further, since both the drive mechanism 50 (drive link member 100) and the fixed stopper member 70 are fixed to the bracket 60, the positional accuracy between the stopper portion 130 and the fixed stopper member 70 can be improved, and the drive link member The amount of rotation of 100 can be defined with higher accuracy.

  In addition, since the fixed stopper member 70 is disposed between the output shaft 52C and the side frame 20, an increase in size of the drive link member 100 or the fixed stopper member 70 can be suppressed, and the periphery of the drive link member 100, specifically, The configuration for defining the rotation of the drive link member 100 can be a compact configuration. In addition, since the length of the protruding stopper portion 130 can be shortened because the drive link member 100 and the configuration for defining the rotation can be made compact, the load when the stopper portion 130 contacts the fixed stopper member 70 can be reduced. can do.

  Moreover, since the stopper part 130 is provided in the side surface 102 of the drive link member 100, the structure of the drive link member 100 can be simplified compared with the structure in which the stopper part protrudes from the link member in the rotation axis direction. . Further, since the first arm portion 55B of the torsion spring 55 is hooked to the first stopper portion 131, compared with a configuration in which a portion for hooking the torsion spring is provided at a location different from the stopper portion, The configuration of the drive link member 100 can be simplified. As a result, the drive link member 100 can be easily manufactured.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 8B, in the gear box 52 </ b> B, the fastening portion 330 protrudes, so that the side surface of the gear box 52 </ b> B excluding the fastening portion 330 is recessed with respect to the fastening portion 330. Therefore, the drive source 52 including the gear box 52B can be made compact. Further, since the protruding fastening portion 330 is arranged at a position avoiding the straight line L, the side surface of the gear box 52B excluding the fastening portion 330 and the end portion of the bent portion 21A of the side frame 20 can be placed close to each other. Therefore, the enlargement of the side frame 20 can be suppressed, and the periphery of the drive source 52 can be made compact. Further, by arranging two fastening portions 330 on the outer side in the left-right direction of the straight line L and two on the inner side in the left-right direction of the straight line L, the side surface of the gear box 52B and the bent portion 21A can be provided even in a configuration having a plurality of fastening portions 330. Since the end portions can be arranged close to each other, the periphery of the drive source 52 can be made compact.
