A multifunction vehicle seat reduces the impact peak and decreases the transfer of acceleration and deceleration forces to all regions of the occupant's body during frontal, rear-end and lateral collisions at high and low speed impacts or when collision becomes inevitable. The seat is isolated from the structural integrity of the vehicle by an anti-friction ball and a plurality of stabilizers. The anti-friction ball is adapted for universal movement over a movable base plate to reduce the transfer of kinetic energy to the seat and to the occupant. The stabilizers are interlocked and engaged with the seat support assembly to delay the response of the seat to the impact until a pulley system is activated. The pulley system is activated electronically or manually to deform the seat cushion, seat back and headrest during and before impact.
A multifunction vehicle seat system, for decreasing acceleration-deceleration forces to regions of an occupant's body during a frontal, rear end or lateral collision at high or low speeds by altering the position of occupants seat assembly when an impact becomes inevitable, said multifunction vehicle seat system comprising:
