ABSTRACT:
A seat reclining device comprises a first plate secured to a rear part of a seat cushion and a second plate secured to a seatback. The first and second plates have first and second circulate openings. A drive shaft passes through the first and second circular openings. A lock mechanism is actuated by the drive shaft. The lock mechanism is interposed between the first and second plates to lock the second plate at a desired angular position relative to the first plate when the drive shaft is turned in a first direction and cancel the locked condition of the second plate when the drive shaft is turned in a second direction. A coil spring is disposed about the drive shaft and neatly put in the first circular opening. The coil spring is incorporated with the lock mechanism in such a manner as to bias the lock mechanism to is assume the locked condition of the second plate.
