Abstract
A side support assembly for the seat of an automotive vehicle includes a pair of horizontally swingable side support frames provided on the left and right sides of the seat backrest to support a seated individual from the right and left sides, a connecting rod for swinging the side support frames toward or away from each other, and a locking mechanism for locking the side support frames at a position to which they have been set. The locking mechanism is provided on the connecting rod so that the side support frames will support the seated individual with the same rigidity when the individual is forced against them due to an inertial force produced at cornering.
