ABSTRACT:
A technology is provided effective for preventing moisture absorption of an airbag housed in a motor vehicle seat with an airbag module having a construction in which the airbag is developed and expanded from a down side to an upside of a seat cushion against movement of a motor vehicle occupant toward a front side of a motor vehicle, which is in a condition seated in the motor vehicle seat when in occurrence of an accident. In one form, the motor vehicle seat according to the present invention is constructed to house an airbag module in a housing portion provided in a seat pan, and to be provided with an airbag cover that intercepts a housing opening of the housing portion and that covers a housing opening side of the airbag. In addition, the motor vehicle seat has a lower portion area (a groove portion) which is an area located outside an edge portion area of the housing opening of the housing portion and lower than the edge portion area, and located adjacent to an outer edge of the airbag cover in the mounted condition.
