    Abstract: A headrest for use with a seat back, preferably for a rear seat of an automobile, having a mount operatively attached to the seat back and a headrest pivotably mounted so that it may pivot or swivel forward about a swivel axis. In a use position, a spring places pressure or a load on the headrest, and may be engaged or locked against folding forward because of the spring. When the headrest is lowered below a minimum heigth, the headrest is automatically unlocked or disengaged, and the headrest moves forward generally perpendicular with the seatback under the force of the spring.
