Abstract
A fold and tumble mechanism is provided for use with a vehicle seat. The seat may include a seat bottom and a seat back. A latch may be provided for coupling the seat to a vehicle body. The fold and tumble mechanism includes a recliner mechanism adapted to pivotally mount the seat back to the seat bottom. The recliner mechanism is associated with a recliner release lever. The recliner release lever may release the recliner mechanism to allow the seat back to pivot. A fold and tumble release lever moves the recliner release lever. The fold and tumble release lever includes a cam to engage the recliner release lever. The fold and tumble release lever further operates to unlatch the latch. The cam may include a dwell surface to allow the further movement of the fold and tumble release lever after the recliner mechanism has been released.
