Abstract

This seat comprises a backrest armature (28) connected to a seat-part armature (22) by means (34) of articulation about an axis (X) substantially transverse to the seat. The backrest armature (28) carries a substantially transverse rod (56) for attaching a cover covering the backrest padding. This attachment rod, which runs close to the means (34) of articulation, has end extensions (60) forming protections intended to prevent a passenger sitting behind the seat from impacting against the means (34) of articulation. As a preference, each protective extension comprises a bow (60) curved around the axis (X) of articulation substantially parallel to a plane perpendicular to this axis.
