Abstract

A connector structure (30) for connecting a rigid member disposed towards the lower portion of one side of an automobile seat back (20) to a rearward portion of an automobile seat (12). The connector structure enables the seat back to be reclined at varying angles with respect to the automobile seat by being pivoted about a first pivot point (34) and further enables the seat back to be positioned in a manner which permits a back surface thereof to provide a horizontal cargo support by being pivoted about a second pivot point (38). The connector structure comprises a seat member (40), an arm (42) with a releasable locking assembly (43), a latch assembly (100), and a lever mechanism (50).
