ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a device for adjustment of level of inclination of back part of a motor vehicle seat having a device part (2) affixed to the seat part and a device part (3) affixed to the back part, which can be pivoted counter to each other about a pivot axis (14), wherein both device parts (2, 3) have parts of gearings (4, 5) forming a swash mechanism, which roll on each other under the action of eccentric elements (11) that can be rotated about a pivot axis (14). The eccentric elements (11) are comprised of an eccentric ring (12), on which two regionally covering mirroring wedge segments (13) lie These are urged away from each other in the sense of an increase in eccentricity (e) by spring elements (15) arranged one of their front surfaces (13.3). The object of the invention is to provide a device for adjustment of the level of inclination, wherein the space between the fronts of the wedge segments loaded by the spring elements is free of support elements in order to facilitate the incorporation of the spring elements. This object is achieved in that the support of the wedge segment (13) is on its other surface (13.4), in that there radial stop surfaces (31.1) are provided on the wedge segments (13) and radial stop surfaces (30.1) are provided on the eccentric ring (12), whereby the stop surfaces (31.1, 30.1) each are formed on projections (31. 30) of the wedge segment (13) or of the eccentric ring (12).
