A vehicle seat includes a base and a frame, the position of which relative to the base is adjustable by an adjustment device having at least one connecting rod articulated to the base and to the frame, the seat further including a device for measuring the distance between the base and the frame. The measuring device has an angular position sensor mounted on the base or on the frame and an arm articulated on the angular position sensor and moving in rotation when the connecting rod is moved in rotation, the angular position sensor determining the distance between the frame and the base as a function of the angle of rotation of the arm.
A vehicle seat comprising a base and a frame, wherein the position of the frame relative to the base is adjustable by an adjustment device comprising at least one connecting rod articulated to the base and to the frame, a rotational displacement of the connecting rod causing a displacement of the frame relative to the base to separate or bring the frame closer to the base, the seat further comprising a device for measuring the distance between the base and the frame, wherein the measuring device comprises at least one angular position sensor mounted on the base or on the frame and an arm articulated on the angular position sensor and extending between the angular position sensor and a movable part with respect to the angular position sensor when the frame is moved relative to the base, said arm moving in rotation when the connecting rod is moved in rotation to change the position of the frame relative to the base, said angular position sensor determining the distance between the frame and the base as a function of the angle of rotation of the arm.
