ABSTRACT:
A seat assembly is disclosed comprising a pivotable backrest, an auxiliary seat, and first and second latches. The first latch is fixedly connected to the bottom cushion and pivotable about a pivot point between a deployed position and a stowed position. The first latch has an opening and a groove extending from the opening, the opening including an arcuate border having a substantially constant radius from the pivot point. The second latch includes a lower bracket arm and an upper bracket arm connected to the backrest, the upper bracket arm including a latch finger and a crank. In a first position, the latch finger engages a catch in the lower bracket arm to lock the backrest in the use position and a distal end of the crank extends into the opening of the first latch. In a second position, the latch finger does not engage the catch and the distal end of the crank extends into the groove of the first latch. The first latch inhibits movement of the second latch from its first position when the first latch is not in the stowed position.
