VEHICLE SEAT STABILIZATION ASSEMBLY

摘要

A stabilization assembly for a vehicle includes a vehicle seat and a slide assembly. The vehicle seat includes a first frame member, a second frame member spaced opposite the first frame member, and a torque tube disposed between and attached to the first frame member and the second frame member. The slide assembly includes a track defining a channel therein, a rail translatable within the channel, and a bracket attached to the rail. A lift linkage interconnects the vehicle seat and the slide assembly, is attached to the bracket and the torque tube, and is rotatable with respect to the bracket about a pivot axis. The stabilization assembly also includes a locking sprocket attached to the bracket, rotatable about the pivot axis during a non-energy management condition, and not rotatable about the pivot axis during an energy management condition. A vehicle including the stabilization assembly is also disclosed.
