Abstract (en)

A headrest (20) for a seat (40) and a seat (40) comprising the headrest (20) are provided. The headrest (20) comprises a headrest support frame (21), an actuator (22) and a transmission means (23-28). A lower end of the headrest support frame (21) is pivotably connectable to an upper end of a backrest (41) of the seat (40) so as to enable a pivotal motion of the headrest (20) relative to the backrest (41) around an axis extending in a transverse direction of the headrest support frame (21). The actuator (22) is connectable to the seat (40) and configured to actuate the headrest support frame (21). The transmission means (23-28) mechanically interconnects the actuator (22) and the headrest support frame (21), and comprises a cable exerting a tension on the headrest support frame (21) in both directions of the pivotal motion so as to adjust a pivotal position of the headrest (20) and to hold the headrest (20) in the pivotal position if the actuator (22) is not actuated.
