Abstract
A headrest (7) is mounted to a seat back (3) and movable forward from a set position, a linking mechanism (19) is provided on the seat back (3) for transmitting an inertial force due to the load by a passenger's body acting on the seat back (3), causing the headrest (7) to move forward, a detector (21) performs a detection of contact of the passenger'body with the headrest (7), and a canceler (23) cancels transmission of the inertial force by the linking mechanism (19) when contact of the passenger's body with the headrest (7) is detected by the detector (21).
