ABSTRACT:
Right and left side reclining apparatuses adjust a rotational position of a seat back frame relative to a seat cushion frame of a seat for a vehicle. Each of the reclining apparatuses includes an upper arm which rotates with the seat back frame, a lower arm to which the upper arm is rotatably attached, and a lock member for locking rotation of the upper arm relative to the lower arm or releasing the lock. At least one of the reclining apparatuses includes a rotating member for forward-tilting which enables the seat back frame to rotate relative to the seat cushion frame while the lock is exerted, and an engaging member for locking rotation of the rotating member for forward-tilting. The right and left side reclining apparatuses are connected by a connecting member.
