Contour control for reclining seat - has head support angle linked to seat back tilt

摘要

The contour control for a reclining seat has the upper part of the seat back (14) hinged about a separate axis (16) parallel to the main axis (12) and with eccentric drive levers (20a,20b) connecting the two joints. As the main part of the seat back is tipped rearwards the top section tilts w.r.t. the main section and provides a comfortable attitude to the head. The top section supports the headrest.
