US Patent:
55249701, Jun 11, 1996
Filed:
Aug 10, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/288357
Inventors:
Ingo Kienke - Reinscheid, DE
Krishnan Kolady - Ann Arbor MI
John C. Scalzo - Farmington Hills MI
Gerald A. Zimmerlee - Brighton MI
Ralf Hoge - Radevornwald, DE
Assignee:
Hoover Universal, Inc. - Plymouth MI
International Classification:
B60N 202
US Classification:
297362
Abstract:
A rotary recliner for a vehicle seat having a pair of meshing gears rotating about a common pivot. Axially movable wedge segments are provided to bias an eccentric mounting one of the gears to force the gears into tight engagement with one another to eliminate free play and avoid rattling and vibration of the recliner. The two wedge segments are axially movable upon rotary motion of an operating cap to relieve the free play reduction and enable adjustment of the recliner. The wedge segments do not function as bearing surfaces of the recliner during recliner adjustment to avoid high friction forces which must be overcome to adjust the recliner.
