ABSTRACT:
An auxiliary seat assembly for a passenger vehicle has a seat back portion pivoted at a rearward margin of a lower seat portion. A frame for the lower seat portion is supported on a base by a parallelogram linkage riser. A seat back panel for the seat back portion is supported by a parallelogram linkage secured to a seat back frame. Pivotal motion of the seat back portion to a forward, folded position is accompanied by forward movement of the lower seat portion. The riser and the seat back portion frame linkage are lowered as the seat back portion is folded forward, thereby reducing the overall stacked height of the folded seat assembly.
