A head restraint assembly 10 is provided to be mounted within a vehicle. A head restraint is supported by a cross member 24 in a lateral direction and adapted to rotate about a lateral axis R of the cross member. A fixed locking member 28 is mounted within the head restraint. A latch 30 is mounted to slide on the cross member between a first latch position engaged with the locking member and at a second latch position released from the fixed locking member. A lever 32 may be provided proximate the latch to move the latch between the first latch position and the second latch position. A motor 60 is in communication with the lever such that the motor moves the lever to translate the latch from the first latch position to the second latch position. The head restraint is rotatable about the cross member when the latch is in the second latch position. A biasing member 36, such as a spring, may be provided for moving the head restraint when the latch is in the second position. Non-motorised locking mechanisms are also disclosed. |
