A zero-gravity seat comprises a seat base, a seat back, a front support frame, and a rear support frame. Upper ends of the front support frame and the rear support frame are respectively hinge-connected to front and rear ends of the seat base. Lower ends of the front support frame and the rear support frame are respectively hinge-connected to a seat mounting base. A lower end of the seat back can rotate around a rear end portion of the seat base. When the seat back and the seat base rotate in a linked manner, a small step difference or even no step difference is present between a lower end portion of the seat back and the upper end surface of the seat base such that the back of the occupant conforms to the seat back, thereby ensuring the comfort of a ride.

Cross Rod For Vehicle Seat Recliner Assembly

A recliner assembly for a vehicle seat may include a pair of recliner hearts and a cross rod. Each of the recliner hearts includes a first plate and a second plate that is selectively rotatable relative to the first plate to recline a seatback relative to a seat bottom of the vehicle seat. The cross rod extends between the recliner hearts and is received in hubs of the recliner hearts. The cross rod transmits torque between the hubs. The cross rod includes ridges that are angularly spaced apart from each other. Each of the ridges includes a first sidewall, a second sidewall, and an end wall extending between the first and second sidewalls. The first and second sidewalls are defined by first and second axes that extend radially outward. The first and second axes are angled such that they do not converge with each other as they extend radially outward.

Recliner Heart Having Biasing Members

A recliner heart includes a first locking plate, a second locking plate, a hub, a pair of wedges, a first biasing member, and a second biasing member. The first locking plate includes first teeth.
