ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle seat comprising a child seat module. The seat includes a seat frame assembly, a seat cushion, a seat back frame assembly, and a plurality of cushion assemblies movable between i) an adult mode position wherein they provide support to the back of an adult seat occupant and ii) a child mode position wherein they provide support for a child seat occupant. The plurality of cushion assemblies include movable first and second cushion assemblies. The first cushion assembly moves between (a) the adult mode position wherein it provides a cushioned adult seat back lower portion, and (b) the child mode position wherein it provides a child's seat support. The movable second cushion assembly includes an upper cushioned pad for providing support to an adult seat occupant in the adult mode position and is operatively connected to the first cushion assembly so that movement of the movable first cushion assembly causes responsive movement of at least the upper cushioned pad of the movable second cushion assembly. The upper cushioned pad is moved i) upwardly in response to movement of the first cushion assembly from the adult to child mode position to provide support to the back of the head of a child seat occupant, and ii) downwardly in response to movement of the first cushion assembly from the child to adult mode position to provide support to an adult seat occupant sitting on the seat cushion when the cushion assemblies are in the adult mode position.
