Abstract

Abstract For accommodating belt buckle parts coordinated to a motor vehicle back seat, recesses are provided in a foldable armrest and in particular in the side surfaces thereof. Each recess includes a bottom area constructed as a deflection surface so that when folding out the armrest, the belt buckle parts constructed as belt buckles are deflected laterally and thereby assume a readiness position, in which the coordinated belt buckle latch can be readily inserted. The belt buckle parts are pulled by means of elastic means in the direction toward the bottom area of the recesses so that when the armrest is folded back, the belt buckle parts are again automatically transferred into the recesses.
