ABSTRACT:
A latching mechanism for latching a tiltable seat back rest to a seat is disclosed. The latching mechanism is operable to normally latch the seat back rest in its fully upright position, allow slow forward tilting movement of the seat back without manual manipulation of the latch mechanism and prevent significant forward tilting movement of the seat back rest upon being subjected to rapid deceleration forces. The latching mechanism is constructed and arranged such that it is operable to latch the seat back rest in an upright position slightly forwardly of its fully upright position, such as could occur when the seat back rest engages cargo loaded in a cargo area behind the seat back rest.
