Abstract

The seat cushion and/or the backrest of the seat comprising an elastic layer (4) carried by a frame and provided with two lateral projecting wings (8) in which an inverted U-shaped driving rod (14) is connected to the upper part of one of the wings and is pivotally mounted relative to the frame (2). This rod is extended at one of its ends by a connecting lever bent around the frame element and connected to a control cable controlling its pivoting fixed to the door (38) of the vehicle. In this way, this door exerts a pull on the cable which causes the rod (14) to pivot and thereby turns the wing (8) outwardly and clears the access to the seat.
