Abstract
A vehicle seating apparatus has first and second seat suspensions and a seat assembly. The first seat suspension is located at a first longitudinal location on the vehicle and incorporates a first seat platform having a pair of seat brackets. The second seat suspension is located at a second longitudinal location on the vehicle and incorporates a second seat platform having a fixed pivot bracket. The seat assembly has first and second occupant support members, a pivot rod mounted to the support members, and at least one latch cam connected to the pivot rod. Each of the seat brackets cooperates with the seat assembly pivot rod and to permit rotation of the seat assembly from a first to a second orientation. In the first orientation the seat occupant faces one end of the vehicle. In the second orientation the seat suspension and the seat occupant faces the other end of the vehicle. As the seat assembly rotates from the first orientation to the second orientation the latch cam on the seat assembly pivot rod engages the second seat suspension pivot bracket.
