Abstract
Provided is a continuous recliner for vehicle seats, in which an internal gear and a cover plate are fixed to each other, and the cover plate is welded to a cushion bracket. A heat transfer path is lengthened to prevent deterioration in the surface roughness of sliding friction parts, thereby reducing the operating force and operating noise of the recliner.
