STEPPING MECHANISM AND ADJUSTMENT DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE SEAT COMPRISING THE STEPPING MECHANISM

摘要

The invention relates to a stepping mechanism (1) comprising an output unit (3) having an output element (6), the output element having an inner toothing (24), a drive unit (4) having a first and a second pawl (14a, b) for transmitting a drive torque to the output element, wherein each of the two pawls has an outer toothing (23), wherein the first pawl has a first control pin and the second pawl has a second control pin (16a, b), wherein the drive unit has a pawl guiding plate (8), wherein the pawls are guided in the pawl guiding plate between an engagement position and a neutral position, and wherein, in the engagement position, the first and/or second pawl is guided into the inner toothing and, in the neutral position, is guided out of the inner toothing. According to the invention, the drive unit has a rocking lever (11), wherein, during a rotation of the pawl guiding plate about the main rotational axis (H), the rocking lever tilts relative to the pawl guiding plate so that at least one of the control pins bears against the rocking lever and the associated pawl is guided out.
