Abstract

See full text

A seat for a means of transport, in particular a vehicle seat, comprising a seat part, a backrest, a backrest adjustment system (1) which connects the backrest to the seat part and which permits a forward pivoting of the backrest onto the seat part, a height adjustable headrest which is displaceably guided via at least one guide rod (10) in an associated guide receiver (11) in the backrest, and retaining means (30, 31) which are effective between at least one guide rod (10) and the associated guide receiver (11) and through which the guide rod (10) is releasably fixable at different heights against displacement, wherein, for avoiding a collision of the headrest with the vehicle roof, the guide receiver (11) for the guide rod (10) is formed so as to be retractable together with the guide rod (10) opposite to the extension direction (VI) of the headrest inwards into the backrest into a recessed position and back out again while the guide rod (10) is arrested by the retaining means (30, 31) relative to the guide receiver (11); and wherein means are provided through which an automatic inward movement of the guide receiver (11) is caused by the forward pivoting of the backrest and an automatic outward movement of the guide receiver (11) back into its original position is caused when the backrest is pivoted back.
