Abstract

A vehicle seat having a pivoting function about a vertical axis (Z1). The seat includes a base configured for connection to the floor (PL) of the vehicle via longitudinal rails, a support frame mounted so as to rotate on the base by means of a pivot joint (JP) of axis Z1 and three curved slide connections (G1,G2,G3), a seating portion frame connected to the support frame directly or via a raising mechanism, and a motorization device interposed between the base and the support frame and configured to cause rotational movement of the support frame relative to the base. The axis Z1 of the pivot joint is eccentric with respect to a central area of the seating portion frame.
