Definitions

  • the upper headrest slider 49 is provided at its lateral edges with semi-circular races seen at 52 and 53.
  • the lower headrest slider is essentially U-shape in configuration enclosing the upper slider and includes arcuate legs 55 and 56 interconnected as seen at 57. Each leg is provided with a series of tapped apertures indicated at 59 which receive threaded stud assemblies 60 which include plastic capped ball noses 61. Such ball noses fit within the races 52 and 53 of the upper slide member.
  • the lower slide member includes an inwardly offset connecting flange seen at 64 which is secured to the frame .33.
  • the rod 68 of the spring assembly 69 extends through a suitable spring loaded lock plate mechanism seen at 72 in Figure 1 which is similar to a simple door closure lock mechanism which will lock the rod against movement depending upon its angle with respect to the axis of the rod.
  • each plate 85 Projecting inwardly from each plate 85 is a generally triangular wall 92 which generally conforms to the profile of the plate 86 but somewhat smaller.
  • the wall 92 is appropriately slotted or notched in certain areas and is provided with a cover plate, not shown, on the side toward the viewer in Figure 5.
  • the wall 92 and the associated cover provides a housing for the interlock and control mechanism illustrated, it being appreciated that there will be one such interlock and control mechanism in each arm.
  • the control mechanism in the arm illustrated may control the spring loaded lock mechanism'72 for the headrest 44 through pull cable 94 while the mechanism in the arm nearest the viewer may control the bypass valve 41 through the release mechanism 42 or the gas piston-cylinder assembly 39 through the pull cable illustrated at 95 in phantom lines.
  • the interlock and control mechanisms operate in essentially the same manner although function somewhat differently as far as enabling or disabling the respective actuators.
