Abstract
A reclining seat device including a fixed seat cushion base having a horizontal shaft and a seat back arm supported upon said base so as to be rotatable around the horizontal shaft. The seat back arm and the base are respectively provided with serrations, which are connected to each other under normal conditions. A release lever pivotably supported at the horizontal shaft includes means for releasing the connection of said seat back arm with the base when the release lever is turned, whereby the seat back may be rotatable around the horizontal shaft. The release lever is also provided with a return spring, and accordingly by adjusting the seat back at a suitable angle and releasing the release lever, the seat back may be set at a desired angle position.
