VEHICLE SEAT
DRIVE
June 12, 2013
An object is to, by a simple structure, provide a headrest with a function of a dynamic damper that damps vibrations of a vehicle seat, and provide the headrest with an impact absorbing function with respect to a head portion of a seated vehicle occupant. A stay (14) of a headrest (12) is held at a seat back, and a cover (16), that covers at least a portion of the stay (14), is supported at the stay (14) so as to be swingable in a seat front-rear direction around a seat transverse direction. Due to a torsion coil spring (18) (an elastic member) elastically deforming when the cover (16) swings, restoring force in a direction opposing a swinging direction of the cover (16) is generated. Further, displacement other than in the swinging direction is suppressed by a suppressing portion (22) that is provided between the stay (14) and the cover (16).
