VEHICLE SEAT EQUIPPED WITH A FOLD-DOWN ELEMENT, SUCH AS A TRAY

摘要

The transport vehicle seat allows to avoid the violent collision of a passenger's head located on the seat placed behind and to dampen the violent forward rocking of this passenger, in case of a frontal collision of the transport vehicle. The seat includes a pivotably mounted fold-down element (10), such as a table, placed on the rear face of a seat back. It has abutment means (14) holding the fold-down element (10) in a substantially vertical position, these abutment means (14) being able to break off during a collision applied to the fold-down element (10) and to allow the latter to go on rocking towards the back seat to which it is attached. Application to aircraft seats.
