Abstract

L'invention concerne un châssis de siège (100), lequel châssis de siège comprend : - un cadre (105) , - une unité de base (108), - un système d'inclinaison, qui comprend : - une unité de base inclinée allongée (107) ayant une première (107a) et une seconde (107b) extrémité, - une console principale allongée (104) ayant une première extrémité (104a) et une seconde extrémité (104b), - une console principale supérieure allongée (103) ayant une première (103a) et une seconde (103b) extrémité, - un premier actionneur linéaire (106). La première extrémité (104a) de la console principale est reliée de manière pivotante à l'unité de base (108) par l'intermédiaire d'une première liaison pivot (150). La seconde extrémité (104b) de la console principale est reliée de manière pivotante à l'unité de base inclinée par l'intermédiaire d'une deuxième liaison pivot (153), laquelle deuxième liaison pivot est située au niveau de la première extrémité (107a) de l'unité de base inclinée (107). La première extrémité (103a) de la console principale supérieure est reliée de manière pivotante à l'unité de base (108) par l'intermédiaire d'une troisième liaison pivot (151) et la seconde extrémité (103b) de la console principale supérieure (103) est reliée de manière pivotante à l'unité de base inclinée (107) par l'intermédiaire d'une quatrième liaison pivot (154), laquelle quatrième liaison pivot est située au niveau de la première extrémité de l'unité de base inclinée (107) dans une position plus proche d'une partie intermédiaire (107c) de l'unité de base inclinée (107) que la position de la deuxième liaison pivot (153). Le premier actionneur linéaire (106) est situé à proximité et sensiblement parallèlement à l'unité de base inclinée allongée (107) dans une direction d'extrémité à extrémité. Le premier actionneur linéaire (106) comprend une première glissière déplaçable activement (101) qui est reliée à un premier levier (102) qui est relié de manière pivotante à la console principale supérieure (103) par l'intermédiaire d'une cinquième liaison pivot (152).
