-A1- SEAT RECLINER MECHANISM Abstract of the Disclosure A seat recliner mechanism comprises a first plate for attach- ment to one side of the back of a seat and a second plate is pivotally connected to the first plate. The first plate is provided with a series of teeth formed in an arc whose radius is coincident with the pivot point of the first and second plates. The second plate is attached to one side of the cush- ion of the seat and pivotally carries a locking pawl having a pin attached thereto whose longitudinal axis is parallel to the longitudinal axis through the pivot point. The locking pawl is provided with a series of teeth complementary to the teeth provided on the first plate for selective intermeshing therewith. First spring means pivotally bias the first plate toward the second plate. A release handle is pivotally con- nected at the pivot point to the first and second plates having a camming slot therein for receiving and camming the pin. The second spring means bias the release handle toward the second plate camming the pin and pawl toward the second plate to mesh the series of teeth on the pawl with the teeth on the first plate to lock the first plate with respect to the second plate. The release handle when pivoted against the first biasing means cams the pin and pawl away from the second plate to unmesh the series of teeth on the pawl with the teeth on the first plate to unlock the first plate with respect to the second plate.
