Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat comprising:

• a first mechanism;
• a second mechanism;
• and
• an actuating mechanism that actuates the first mechanism and the second mechanism in response to an operation of a single lever,
• wherein the actuating mechanism has:
• an operating mechanism that is operated by the single lever;
• a first link that is operated by the operating mechanism to actuate the first mechanism;
• a second link that is operated to actuate the second mechanism;
• a transmitting portion that receives an operating force of the single lever transmitted from the operating mechanism and transmits the operating force to the first and second mechanisms;
• and
• an escape portion that allows the operating force transmitted from the operating mechanism to escape,
• wherein the transmitting portion and the escape portion are formed side by side on each of the first and second links such that power transmitted from the single lever to each of the first and second links via the operating mechanism is allowed to escape during operation of the single lever.
