Headrests
Manual Headrests The manual range provides reliable height and tilt adjustment through mechanical detents or friction-lock mechanisms. These are suited to entry-level and commercial vehicle programs where durability and cost efficiency are primary drivers. The adjustment motion is designed for intuitive one-handed operation, allowing the occupant to set position quickly without visual distraction. Shape options include standard rectangular, contoured wings, and slim-profile designs to match different seat backrest widths and interior aesthetics.
Electric Headrests Powered headrests offer motorized vertical adjustment and, depending on specification, forward-backward tilt or articulating wing movement. These integrate with the seat control switch or body control module, allowing the driver or passenger to fine-tune head support without manual force. Electric versions are standard fitment in luxury MPV captain chairs and executive sedan seating, where memory recall functions often include headrest position as part of the stored driver profile.
Safety Integration All headrest shapes are developed within the envelope constraints of automotive seat safety design specifications. This ensures that the outer surface geometry, padding compression characteristics, and attachment-to-backrest rigidity perform as intended during rear-impact scenarios. Safety-critical dimensions such as head-to-headrest gap and height adjustment range are validated against the target seat platform before production commitment.
