Abstract
A vehicle seat locking unit () includes a lock housing having a receptacle opening () for receiving a locking bolt (). A rotary latch () is mounted to swivel around a bearing bolt () and has a hook aperture () for locking together with the locking bolt. The bearing bolt is aligned in an axial direction and the receptacle opening is delimited by a locking bolt stop element (), located in the hook aperture, which axially protrudes into the lock housing. In a locked state the locking bolt extends in the axial direction. A first contact region (), between the locking bolt and the stop element, and a second contact region (), between the locking bolt and the rotary latch, partially overlap in the axial direction, or the first contact region lies completely within the second contact region in the axial direction. A vehicle seat () includes such locking unit.
