Abstract
A motor vehicle seat has a seat cushion angularly movable about a pivot, a backrest angularly movable about a shaft, and a headrest detachably mounted on the backrest, the headrest having a pair of stays extending downwardly. A headrest storage mechanism has a headrest storage space defined between the seat cushion and the backrest when the seat cushion is lifted forward and the backrest is lowered forward toward the seat cushion, with the headrest removed from the backrest, and a pair of arms mounted on the seat cushion and attached to the pivot, for supporting the headrest in a given attitude when the seat cushion is lifted forward. The headrest storage space has such dimensions as to be able to store the stays extending downwardly from the headrest when the headrest is supported on the arms.
