ABSTRACT:
A forwardly displaceable vehicle seat for vehicles in which a rear seat is accessed through a side door. A locking device (40) is assigned to the seat back joint (32) and locks the seat back joint (32) in a first locking position in a normal use position of the vehicle seat. A release (42), preferably arranged on the seat back (20), cooperates with the locking device (40), and permits displacement of the vehicle seat from the normal use position into a forwardly displaced position having the seat back (20) folded forward. A first transmission mechanism (54) sets a memory unit (78) and releases a stop unit (70) when the seat back (20) is tilted forward. The locking device (40) has a second locking position in which the seat back (20) is retained in the forwardly tilted position. A second transmission mechanism (56) actuates the locking device (40) so that it cannot adopt the second locking position within a rear portion (100) of the travel distance of the seat, and can engage the second locking position within a front portion (102) of the travel distance.
