ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a vehicle seat with a seat frame (3) with upper rails (5) that are adjustable on vehicle-integrated upper rails (6) in the longitudinal direction and a backrest (8) that is locked on a seat frame-integrated component (4) using inclination adjusters, wherein the vehicle seat (1) can be moved from a utilization position into an easy-entry position by folding the backrest (8) forward into a partially forward-folded position and longitudinal movement of the seat frame (3) from a utilization zone forward into and easy-entry zone.According to the invention, it is proposed that the backrest (8) has a latching arrangement (32) for its partial forward-folded position, a latching mechanism (9) is provided on the seat frame (3), which is automatically adjustable as a factor of the longitudinal position of the seat frame (3) and assumes in the rear utilization zone a release position and in the forward easy-entry zone a latching position, in which it locks with the latching arrangement (32) of the backrest (8) and can be released from the latching arrangement (32) only by a movement of the seat frame (3) rearward out of the easy-entry zone into the utilization zone.
