Vehicle seat having a floor position
View Patent ↗A vehicle seat, including a substructure and a backrest articulated on the substructure, can be transferred from a sitting position to a floor position by folding the backrest forward. A first rocker and second rocker, on the two outer seat faces, articulate the backrest on the substructure. The substructure, the first rocker, the backrest, and the second rocker form a four-bar linkage. Each of the second rockers is rotatably connected to the substructure by a respective second joint and to the backrest by a respective third joint. A transverse tube extends in the transverse vehicle direction between the two second rockers. The transverse tube has two ends, each of which is fastened to the associated second rocker in an area between the second joint and the third joint of the respective four-bar linkage. At least one connection point of a child seat fastening system is provided on the transverse tube.
