VEHICLE SEAT

A vehicle includes a vehicle floor and a vehicle seat mounted to the vehicle floor. The vehicle seat includes a seat bottom rotatable about a rotational axis between a deployed position and a raised position. The seat includes two legs fixed to the seat bottom and spaced from each other along the cross-seat axis. The legs are moveable with the seat bottom between the deployed position and the raised position. The vehicle seat includes a beam fixed directly to the legs and extending along the cross-seat axis from one leg to the other leg. The beam moves with the seat bottom between the deployed position and the raised position. During certain vehicle impacts, the beam counteracts downward force of the pelvis of the occupant to control the kinematics of the occupant, including controlling the kinematics of the occupant relative to a lap belt of a seatbelt.
