ABSTRACT:
A folding passenger seat assembly with integral child restraint for a motor vehicle includes a seat portion and a backrest portion hinged to the seat portion. A seat latch finger selectively locks the backrest portion in a vertical use position. A child seat is integrally recessed within the backrest portion and includes a hinged bottom cushion. The backrest portion and child seat are interlocked so that the bottom cushion of the child seat can only be deployed if the backrest portion is latched in its vertical use position. Conversely, the backrest portion cannot be folded down if the child seat is deployed. The child seat includes a throw bolt at its hinge point for constantly and unyieldingly locking the bottom cushion in its stowed condition until deliberately released therefrom. Such deliberate release is accomplished by a footrest actuator on the bottom cushion.
