Abstract

A safety seat for a motor vehicle has a squab (1) and a back (4). A support (6) is connected to the squab and the back is pivotally connected (13) to the support (6). A motion-restricting device (22) is provided in the form of a hydraulic damper which permits relative free movement of the back of the seat rearwardly until part (12) of the back of the seat engages a stop (11), but which resists any subsequent tendency for the back of the seat to move forwardly with a pivot movement about the pivot (13) away from the stop (11).
