Abstract

The vehicle seat has a seat pan and a seat back. The seat back is provided with a seat back carrier, a padding body arranged on the seat back carrier and a headrest fastened on the seat back carrier. An upper shoulder area of the padding body, which is adjacent to the headrest, is provided with a normal disposition to yield to the load of a passenger's back. This disposition to yield increases considerably in case of an acceleration due to an accident.
