AUTOMATIC SEAT BACK LATCH RELEASE

摘要

A vehicle seat latching system for latching a pivoted backrest structure to a seat cushion supporting structure. The latching system comprises a spring-loaded pivoted latch device on the backrest structure engagable with a keeper device carried on the seat cushion supporting structure. A remote control mechanism responsive to movement of a vehicle door into or out of door closed position actuates a latch device displacement means. When the vehicle door is moved to an open position, movement is transmitted from a sensor device through a reciprocable wire element to the latch device displacement means which drives the latch device out of latching engagement with the keeper device to permit the seat backrest to be forwardly tiltable.
