A vehicle seat comprising a rigid support structure provided with a rear central beam, which structure carries a headrest, a seat proper, and a seat back carried by the central beam. The seat back is pivotally mounted on the central beam via two couplings that enable the seat back to move rearwards, under a force greater than a predetermined limit value.

Vehicle seat with protection from shock loads

A seat pan for an automobile vehicle includes a frame carrying a suspension lattice having two sections separated by a vertical median plane dividing the seat into right and left hand sides. A motor and crankshaft combination is connected to each section of the lattice for generating in each section of the lattice a cyclic movement including, in the upper portion of its travel, a rearward movement of translation. The cyclic movements of the sections occur with an angular phase difference therebetween.
