Modular Composite Front-Seat Cushion Pan

This patent-pending, plastics-intensive, modular composite front seat-cushion pan (in impact-modified 35% GR-PA), side-airbag deployment back panel (in talc-filled TPO), and power head-restraint drive nut (in POM) create a robust and dynamic crash-energy management system for front impact protection, side airbag deployment, and energy management for occupant impact protection. Further, the system enables modular assembly and scalable features for assembly ease.  Already 83 patents have been filed and 12 granted on this innovative seat system.
