Abstract: An actuating mechanism (release mechanism) includes an operating pin (operating mechanism) that is operated by an operating lever, a first link that is operated by the operating pin to release a lock of a longitudinal slide mechanism, and a second link that is operated to release a lock of a lateral slide mechanism. A transmitting portion that receives operating force of the lever transmitted from the operating pin and transmits the operating force to a lock portion of each slide mechanism, and an escape portion that allows the operating force transmitted from the operating pin to escape are formed side by side on each of the links, and power transmitted from the lever to each of the links via the operating pin is allowed to escape during operation.

Abstract: A vehicle sheet includes: a longitudinal sliding mechanism configured to support a seat body such that the seat body is slidable relative to a vehicle floor in the vehicle longitudinal direction; a lateral sliding mechanism configured to support the seat body such that the seat body is slidable in the vehicle lateral direction; a reclining mechanism configured to connect a seat back to a seat cushion and adjust a reclining angle of the seat back; a first lever configured to be able to cancel fixation of the reclining angle of the seat back, which has been provided by the reclining mechanism; and a release mechanism configured to release locks on both the longitudinal sliding mechanism and the lateral sliding mechanism upon detection of a motion of tilting the seat back to a forward tilt position, which is caused by an operation of the first lever.

Abstract: A retractable seat may include a seat cushion, a seat back rotatably supported on the seat cushion, and a link mechanism for supporting the seat cushion on a floor. The link mechanism includes a front leg and a rear leg that are pivotally connected to the seat cushion and the floor so that the seat cushion and the seat back can be switched between a use condition and a retracted condition. The seat may further include a restraint mechanism provided on the floor for preventing the link mechanism from moving when the seat is in a use condition.
