  • Patent number: 6474739
    Abstract: A seat includes a pivotable mount and a release member movable between a normal position wherein a locking device is in a locked position and a release position wherein the locking device is in an unlocked position. A bypass link moves the release member to the release position when a seat back pivots to a fully folded position and a movable track is in a predetermined release position so that the movable track moves to a predetermined memory position. When the movable track is in the predetermined memory position, the bypass link moves independently of the release so that the bypass link enters a bypass position, and the release member is in the normal position, when the seat back is in the fully folded position. Thus, the fully folded and locked seat can be flipped to a stowed position.
