Abstract

Disclosed is a vehicle seat (1), particularly a motor vehicle seat, comprising a seat part (3), at least one fitting (5) which is provided with a first fitting part (7) and a second fitting part (8) that can be swiveled relative to the first fitting part (7) about an axis (A), and a backrest (4) which is mounted on the seat part (3) by way of the fitting (5) and can be swiveled relative to the seat part (3) about the axis (A). A sensor (15) is provided on the first fitting part (7) while a signaler (14) is provided on the second fitting part (8). The sensor (15) transmits a signal by cooperating with the signaler (14) when the second fitting part (8) swivels relative to the first fitting part (7), the signal making it possible to determine the relative angular position of the fitting parts (7, 8).
