ABSTRACT:
A headrest for a vehicle seat having a backrest is provided which has a head cushion fastened to two supporting rods and two side pieces which are integrated in the head cushion. In the in-use position, the side pieces project laterally on the head cushion beyond its cushion front and, in the not-in-use position are accommodated inside the contour of the head cushion. For implementing a headrest of a compact minimum size and an aesthetically attractive shape which optimally meets the demands made on a headrest with respect to the driving operation and the resting phase, each side piece is swivellably disposed on a vertical tube section which, in turn, is fastened on a supporting rod so that it can be swivelled about a swivel shaft extending transversely thereto. Using an upper and lower cross traverse, the two tube sections are fixedly connected with one another and each carry a cushion enlargement of the head cushion. The side pieces are constructed in such a manner using a parallelepiped-shaped basic cushion body and a padded wedge piece continuing therefrom in one piece that, in their not-in-use position, they cover one another and end flush with the front and rear side of the cushion enlargements.
