Abstract
A tilt-up automobile seat having a tilt-up mechanism positioned under a seat cushion. The seat cushion and a seat back are continuously positioned in a flat plane at a predetermined angle and the whole seat is tilted upwards around a front side of the seat cushion as a fulcrum. The tilt-up mechanism is always covered by a combination of an upper cover for covering at least its upper part and an under cover for containing at least its lower part even in a tilt-up position of the whole seat, resulting in preventing the tilt-up mechanism from being seen from outside. The upper and lower covers can include flange parts overlapped to each other, having a predetermined height.
