ABSTRACT:
A drop-in rumble seat system to fit in an aperture in the trunk lid of a vehicle. The aperture has a peripheral margin which is engaged by a peripheral frame that makes a watertight seal with it. The peripheral frame is supported by the trunk lid and in turn supports bearing means which depend beneath it in the trunk cavity. Hinge means is rotatably mounted to the bearing means, and a support member is mounted to the hinge means. The support member is adapted to assume a closed position where it closes the aperture, and an upright backrest position where it leaves the aperture open and is tilted relative to the frame to form a backrest. The hinge means is preferably a parallelogram type movement whose change in parallelogram configuration is controlled at various positions to provide necessary angular changes of position of the support member. The support means can be moved to its two positions by hand, or preferably by motor means.
