Attorney, Agent or Firm:

A seat adjuster includes upper and lower track members having interfitting U-shape cross-section side portions which are slidably guided relative to each other by runners of low friction plastic material. The track members are slidably supported relative to each other by a shoe of the same material. A latch member includes a U-shaped locking portion which is receivable within slots in the side portions of the upper track member and a pair of a plurality of slots in the lower track member to releasably lock the track members to each other. Seat mounting brackets have hook shaped portions which are hooked to the base wall of the upper track member to releasably secure the brackets thereto. The brackets support a vehicle seat on the upper track member. One of the brackets has provisions for mounting seat belt restraints thereto with the loads imposed on the upper track member by such restraints being resisted by the interfitting side portions of the track members.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows: 1.
A seat adjuster comprising, in combination, an elongated upper track member including a base wall and a pair of U-shape cross-section side portions, each such side portion including an outer side leg depending from one side of the base wall and joined by a bight portion to an inner side leg, an elongated lower track member including a base wall and a pair of U-shape cross-section side portions, each including an inner side leg extending from one side of the base wall and joined by a bight portion to an outer side leg, the side portions of the upper and lower track members interfitting with each other, upper runner means of low friction plastic material fitted between the free edges of the inner legs of the upper track member and the bight portions of the lower track member, lower runner means of low friction plastic material fitted between the free edges of the outer legs of the lower track member and the bight portions of the upper track member, shoe means of low friction plastic material fitted between the base wall of the upper track member and the bight portions of the lower track member to slidably support the upper track member on the lower track member, latch means cooperatively engageable between the upper and lower track members to adjustably lock the track members in various positions relative to each other, the base wall of the upper track member including openings therethrough, the shoe means including a groove below such openings, and seat mounting brackets, each including hook shaped portions hooked to the base wall of the upper track member through the openings thereof and extending into the groove of the shoe means, said brackets being securable to a vehicle seat for mounting the seat to the upper track member, at least one of said brackets including means for mounting vehicle restraints thereto, with the loads resulting from such restraints resisted by the interfitting side portions
