What is the name of the resetting ratchet component found most often in head rests?

Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked on January 26, 2021

There is a component which I’ve seen most often in car seat headrests which acts as a ratchet. You can pull the headrest forward and it will lock at steps until you pull it too far, and it will reset all the way back.

It’s sort of a ratchet mechanism which resets after a certain range of motion.

I don’t know what it’s called. I’ve tried "resetting ratchet", "resetting step lock", and many other queries.

Do you know the name of this component?
