Abstract
The seat structure comprises a cushion (1) and a backrest (2) interconnected by a pin in two sections, one of these sections (4) being connected to the cushion and including a semi-bearing (8). The other section (6) is connected to the backrest and to a link (10) pivotally mounted at (12) on a support side wall (14). The pivot pin (12) is located in front of the connecting pin sections (4, 6) so that the backrest which pivots about this pin is swung over toward the front of the seat structure and completely clears the rear of the seat structure, for example for the passage of a rear passenger.
