ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to an inertia operated latch structure for preventing forward movement of a pivoted vehicle seat back upon impact or sudden deceleration. The latch structure comprises a primary inertia member supported for pivotal movement between a normal released position and an inertia induced locked position. The primary inertia member includes a track in which a secondary inertia member is positioned. The primary inertia member is movable from a normal position to an inertia induced position upon sudden deceleration and is maintained in this latter condition by the secondary inertia member.
