Abstract

The seating member of a vehicle seat is mechanically lockable in a selected one of at least three defined positions. In one of these positions (normal position) the seating member is substantially parallel to the ground on which the vehicle is standing or travelling. In the at least two other positions, one on each side of said normal position, the seating member is tilted about a pivotal axis parallel to the direction of vehicle travel.
