    Abstract: A seat assembly includes a first frame with a guide member extending outwardly along a first axis. A second frame has a second guide member extending outwardly. One of the first and second guide members is received in translation along the first axis by the other of the first and second guide members to connect the second frame to the first frame. A first locking element is engaged to couple the first frame to the second frame and limit translational movement of the first frame relative to the second frame. A method of assembling a seat assembly is also provided.

    Abstract: A seat assembly has a seating cushion defining a first surface to support an occupant and a second surface opposite to the first surface, with the first surface further defining a trench. A fastener has a longitudinal body with a central region positioned between a first end region and a second end region, and a base extending outwardly from the second end region and transversely to the body. The first end region tapers in a direction away from the second end region, and the central region of the body defines a recess intersecting a side wall of the body and angled inwardly and towards the first end region to form a hook. The fastener extends through the seating cushion with the base abutting the second surface, and the first end region of the body extending into the trench.

    Abstract: A massaging assembly for a seat such as a vehicle seat is disclosed. The massaging assembly includes a plurality of bladders arranged along one or more dimensions of an occupant and are configured to determine one or more dimensions of the occupant. For example, a controller cooperates with the plurality of bladders to perform a scan to determine the one or more dimensions. The controller subsequently performs massages via the plurality of bladders based on the one or more occupant dimensions.

    Abstract: A connection arrangement for tubular members may include a latch arrangement having a latch hook attached to a first tubular member and a striker arrangement attached to a second tubular member. The striker arrangement may include a transverse member extending transverse to the length of the second tubular member. The transverse member may be positioned proximate to the latch hook when an end of the first tubular member is positioned adjacent to an end of the second tubular member such that rotation of the latch hook engages the transverse member and effects a clamping force between the first tubular member and the second tubular member in a direction transverse to the rotational axis of the latch hook.

    Abstract: A vehicle seat assembly and a method of forming the assembly are provided. The assembly has a seat back frame with a flange extending into an opening. A head restraint insert has an insert body to be received by the opening and forming a mounting surface. A trim cover receives the head restraint insert, and is positioned between the mounting surface and the flange of the seat back frame when the head restraint insert is connected to the seat back frame. An assembly is provided with an insert body forming a mounting face, a retainer extending outwardly from the insert body to form a channel with the mounting face, and a trim cover sized to receive the insert body and having an edge trim extending to cooperate with a lip on a frame to retain the assembly to the frame.
