Abstract
Clutch-based adjustment mechanism for motorized multi-way seat adjustment An adjustment mechanism comprises multiple screw shafts (111, 112, 113) and a motor (150) for driving the screw shafts. Further, the adjustment mechanism comprises a clutch mechanism (160) for selectively engaging the motor (150) with one or more of the screw shafts (111, 112, 113). A rotation of one or more of the screw shafts (111, 12, 113) caused by the motor (150) translates into adjustment of the seat according to a first degree of freedom. A rotation of one or more others of the screw shafts (111, 12, 113) caused by the motor (150) translates into adjustment of the seat according to a second degree of freedom.
