Oregon Aero designed the entire adjustable

of front seats are large enough to store the removable seat
lumbar cushions. |

The seat and seat cushions can withstand
harsh environments and are fully adjustable and pain-free. |
|
| |
|
Soldiers can be free of pain during several-day
driving missions. |

|
The seat and seat cushion system required
sophisticated engineering. |

Oregon Aero continually improves manufacturing
processes and selectively uses both high-tech and low-tech methods.
The company’s computerized milling machine (shown here),
linked with CAD software, produces finished parts and reverse
engineered models to an accuracy of ±.0002". |

Seats During Military Convoy |
Here’s what a 27-year military officer had to say about
Oregon Aero’s HMWVV (HUMVEE®) seats after a two-week evaluation:
"We did a 477 mile convoy, approximately
18 hours each way, with only scheduled ten minute breaks and
one 60-minute halt for fuel and chow. During this time I had
no discomfort from the Oregon Aero seats. They remained secure
in place, they provide good cushioning and did not develop any
hot spots. The seats are very good in wet weather. After a rain,
I would wipe off the excess water and the seats would dry in
minutes. The issued seats would have stayed wet for hours. My
driver and various other passengers all had very positive comments."

 Oregon
Aero designed and manufactures the complete seat system as well
as the seat cushions for the General Dynamics Land Systems RST-V
(Reconnaissance, Surveillance, Targeting) diesel electric hybrid
military vehicle. The hybrid vehicle is adaptable to a variety
of missions. Oregon Aero seat cushions permit crews to focus
on their job without being distracted by seating discomfort.
The seat and seat cushion system
designs required sophisticated engineering. The seat and seat
cushions are able to:
- Withstand
harsh environments, including sand.
- Provide
spinal compression protection for passengers in case of
high impact (the vehicle is designed to survive a land mine
explosion).
- Be
fully adjustable forward and backward, including the front
seats folding back flat.
- Provide
pain-free seating for several-day missions.
- Be
re-configured instantly to accommodate equipment such as
utility belts and canteens.

The
knob on the side of the seat pulls straight up to move the
entire seat forward and backward on the rail.
|
| The
lever at the rear of the seat frame permits the seat back to
lean forward and back at any angle in five degree increments,
including lying back flat. Oregon Aero designed and manufactures
the complete adjustable seat frame for the RST-V. Both seat
frame and seat cushions contribute to the seat’s ability
to withstand high impact. |
|
A
good example of Oregon Aero's versatility is the custom
upholstery and seat cushion upgrade for this Oregon National
Guard vehicle. The seat not only looks great but provides
pain-free seating. "There's an extremely delicate
balance that must be created and maintained through the
seat design and materials," says Mike Dennis about
all of Oregon Aero's custom seat cushion designs. |
