ABSTRACT:
A vehicle seat for absorbing energy exerted on the seat during impact including a seat frame having at least one generally vertical segment, a support apparatus including at least one generally vertical pole and at least one coupler fixedly mounted on the at least one pole of the support apparatus and circumferentially mounted on the at least one generally vertical segment of the seat frame, the at least one coupler having at least one deformation member engaging an indentation in the at least one segment such that displacement of the seat frame relative to the support apparatus occurs only when the force of the impact acting on the seat frame exceeds a preselected threshold. Additionally or alternatively, the vehicle seat includes a mounting structure associated with a vehicle floor and having a pair of primary support sites and a single, secondary support site, wherein the support apparatus includes a pair of substantially parallel primary support poles for supporting the seat frame, the poles being coupled to the seat frame and respectively mounted on the pair of primary support sites, and a pair of non-parallel secondary support poles for supporting the seat frame, jointly mounted on the secondary support site.
