Abstract
A forwardly displaceable vehicle seat for vehicles in which a rear seat is accessed through a side door. A locking device () is assigned to the seat back joint () and locks the seat back joint () in a first locking position in a normal use position of the vehicle seat. A release (), preferably arranged on the seat back (), cooperates with the locking device (), and permits displacement of the vehicle seat from the normal use position into a forwardly displaced position having the seat back () folded forward. A first transmission mechanism () sets a memory unit () and releases a stop unit () when the seat back () is tilted forward. The locking device () has a second locking position in which the seat back () is retained in the forwardly tilted position. A second transmission mechanism () actuates the locking device () so that it cannot adopt the second locking position within a rear portion () of the travel distance of the seat, and can engage the second locking position within a front portion () of the travel distance.
