Automatic retractable head restraint

摘要

A vehicle seat assembly with a retractable head rest that rotates from an upright use position to a lowered, retracted, stowed position to improve visibility for a vehicle driver. The motion mechanism for the head rest is contained within the body of the head rest itself thus eliminating modification of the seat back to which the head rest is mounted. The head rest is further vertically adjustable relative to the seat back and is rotatably adjustable within a range of upright use positions.
