Device and method for controlling the sliding of a tiltable vehicle seat by detecting the position of its backrest relative to two reference positions

摘要

The device (D) has detection units i.e. sensors (C1, C2), for detecting a position in which a backrest (DS) is placed. A control unit (MC) authorizes sliding of a folding seat towards front and rear portions during unlocking of rotation of the backrest when the backrest is detected in reference positions by the detection units. The backrest is mounted on a base and is straightened when the backrest is at one of the reference positions. The backrest is folded towards its front when the backrest is at the other reference position. The control unit is carried out in a form of an electronic circuit and a software module. An independent claim is also included for a method for controlling sliding of a folding seat of a vehicle.
