Abstract

A vehicle seat comprises a base, a seat proper, and a seat back pivotally mounted on the base about an axis which is situated above the seat proper and in front of the seat back. The rear end of the seat proper is pivotally mounted on the seat back and the front end of the seat proper is mounted on the base via a linkage adapted to impose angular displacements on the seat proper that are less than half the angular displacements to which the seat back is subjected when the inclination of the seat back is adjusted.
