Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle seat, and more particularly, to a vehicle seat provided with a pressure receiving member that can move rearward in a state in which a load from a passenger's back is received.

  Among vehicle seats, there is a seat provided with a pressure receiving member within the seat back that can move rearward under a load from the back of the occupant. The pressure receiving member receives a rear load from the back of the occupant and moves (displaces) rearward when a vehicle (for example, a vehicle) collides rearward. By such movement of the pressure receiving member, it is possible to reduce a load (impact load) applied to the occupant at the time of collision.

  On the other hand, the shape and the like of the pressure receiving member have been improved so that the load input from the back of the occupant can be effectively received. More specifically, for example, a pressure receiving member ("backrest panel" in Patent Document 1) provided in the seat back of the vehicle seat described in Patent Document 1 is a portion having a long lateral width in the vertical direction ( A wide portion) and a portion having a short width (narrow portion) are alternately arranged. With such a configuration, the pressure receiving member can be reduced in weight because the width in the narrow portion is shorter than the width in the wide portion. Further, in the pressure receiving member having a structure in which the wide portions and the narrow portions are alternately arranged, the side end portions thereof are easily bent, and as a result, when the occupant's back is supported, it is easy to fit (follow) the occupant's back.
