Abstract
To be able to store a seat back and a seat cushion in line from front to back and be able to widely ensure space above a storage position of the seat cushion. In a rear seat (), when a seat back () is rotated to a forwardly collapsed position in a state where a seat cushion () has been moved to a storage position, the seat back () and the seat cushion () are stored in parallel from front to back. Consequently, the seat back () and the seat cushion () can be thinly stored in an up-down direction of a vehicle. Moreover, the storage position of the seat cushion () is set on a rear lower side of a use position, so space above the storage position can be widely ensured.
