ABSTRACT:
The hinge includes two flanges (24, 26) adapted to be fixed to a seat cushion and a seat squab (backrest), respectively. The flanges (24, 26) can turn relative to each other about a hinge axis (X) that is substantially perpendicular to them. The hinge additionally includes a hinge control member (32) mounted to rotate about the hinge axis (X) at least one way from a rest position and means for spring loading the control member into its rest position including approximate positioning means (76) and accurate positioning means (82) for the control member (32). The accurate positioning means preferably include at least one U-shape spring (82) in axial bearing engagement between the edge of a recess (88) of a bearing (P1) supporting the control member (32) and a positioning flat (90) of the control member (32).
