ABSTRACT:
A seat (10) is disclosed that includes a seat back (14) hingedly attached to a seat base (12) such that the seat back can be folded from an upright, vertical position to a closed, horizontal position with the lower surface of the seat back overlying the upper surface of the seat base throughout the seat's range of motion. The seat base includes a guide (212) for aligning the seat back throughout its entire range of travel and further prevents the seat back from flexing away from the seat base when the seat is in the folded position. For ready upholstering, in one embodiment, the foldable seat includes a removable seat base panel (20) and a removable seat back panel (22) attached to the seat base and back, respectively.
