ABSTRACT:
A seat reclining mechanism for adjusting the angular position of a seatback relative to a seat cushion by a planetary gear arrangement includes a rotatable shaft, a base plate, a pivotable arm, a control gear, a plurality of planetary gears, and two supporting plates. The pivotable arm is rotatably connected to the base plate through the rotatable shaft. Each planetary gear has two opposed cylindrical projections. Each supporting plate is coaxially mounted on the rotatable shaft for supporting the planetary gears in such a manner that the cylindrical projections of each planetary gear is rotatably supported by the supporting plates and that the planetary gears are held in a predetermined revolution orbit around the control gear.
