Compact recliner with locking cams

摘要

A compact recliner assembly includes a first housing half and a second housing half rotatably supported about the first housing half. A pawl is movable between a first position engaging the second housing half to prohibit rotation relative to the first housing half and a second position disengaging the second housing half to enable rotation relative to the first housing half. A release cam is rotatably supported by the first housing half and engages the pawl to move the pawl between the first and second positions. A first locking cam engages the release cam and is movable between a locked position locking the pawl in the first position and an unlocked position enabling the pawl to move to the second position.
