Patent attributes
An automobile seat with supporting frame, upholstery, and seat cover includes a seat body and a seat back, as well as at least one seat back region, such as a side wing on the seat back, whose height and shape in its use position extends forward over the central shape of the seat back. An elastic adjustment element and actuation medium for the adjustment element are positioned within the seat back or the side wing. The adjustment element and the deformed region in the seat back such as the side wing are so deformed by the actuation medium when the seat back is tilted forward from the use position into the tilted-forward position that the height of the seat back portion, such as the side wing, extending over the central shape is less than when in the use position.
