Abstract

L'invention porte sur un dispositif de support lombaire mécanique (122) comprenant un panneau (144) pourvu d'une première extrémité (146) et d'une seconde extrémité (148). Le panneau est sollicité dans un sens avant de façon à former un arc dans un dossier de siège. Un cadre lombaire (140) s'étend vers le bas à partir d'un élément support (134) destiné à supporter coulissant le panneau (144). Un premier câble (128) est fixé à l'une des extrémités du panneau (144) et à une crémaillère en arc d'un premier boîtier d'engrenages (116). Le déplacement linéaire de la crémaillère en arc transfère le mouvement vers l'une des extrémités de façon à modifier la distance entre les extrémités par déplacement du premier câble. Le dispositif de support lombaire mécanique (122) comprend un second boîtier d'engrenages (150) pourvu d'une crémaillère mobile et d'un pignon mobile qui assurent le décalage vertical du dispositif de support lombaire. Le second boîtier d'engrenages (150) peut également être utilisé pour actionner des accessoires de support additionnels tels que des montants latéraux mobiles.
