Analysis And Study On The Evoluation Of Passenger Vehicle Seats In China

With the globalization of world division of labor intensified, a uniform world market is continuingly consummating, and become perfect, the automotive products needs of the consumers, including technology, quality and services are increasing. At the same time, along with the development of social progress, the basic functions of car seat can't satisfied users' needs any more, what they needs are the safety, comfort, convenience, intelligence and etc. Car seat, as an important part between man and machine, is the key component which is concerned with the health and safety of the drivers and passengers.

The second part is start with the definition and concept of the passenger vehicle and classifying variety of different automobile. Then describing the evolution and change process of the entire automobile industry and automobile itself from three different angles:technology, industry, society and form.

Then we will talk about the cultural symbol, processing technology, and people life style, such these influencing factors will be summarized. The fourth part is developed by the outline from static state to dynamic mode, we will discuss and analysis the different vehicle seat design factors:form, medium, driving environment, manufacture, material and users, explore the fundamental cause and general rules of the seat evolvement. The fifth part, we will take the Redflag sedan which is the most famous brand in China as an example and research object. For explaining the evolution process of the modern sedan and seat technology and form, the argument will be started from the first sedan "Dongfeng" CA71 that produced by Redflag, to the newest product--"Shengshi"HQ3. Finally, the last part points to the future. Under the background of intelligent machine period, a new theory will be proposed-- man-machine symbiosis theory. The discussion will be focused on the possibility of the symbiosis and communication between the automobile and human.
