Abstract
A seat, the back of which is connected to the seat part by a pivot including two webs able to be fixed by toothed inserts controlled by a cam. In order to allow the folding down of the seat back forwards, then the replacing of this back into its initial position, the pivoting cam is connected to an external memorisation mechanism, which comprises a control part connected to this cam by a lost motion mechanical connection adapted so that the activation of the cam does not move the activating part, and so that the activation of the memorisation mechanism drives the movement of the cam to its unlocked position.
