1. A device for locking and unlocking a pin of a vehicle component, the device comprising:
a hook that cooperates with the pin to lock the pin and to unlock the pin; a base plate rotatably connected to the hook such that the pin is held between the base plate and the hook when the hook is rotated to a locked position; a pawl configured to rotate from securing the hook in the locked position to allowing the hook to move; an actuating component configured to rotate the pawl by a force provided from a signaling mechanism, wherein the actuating component rotates upon receiving the force from the signaling mechanism, wherein the rotation of the actuating component changes a display element of the device, wherein the signaling mechanism is a first signaling mechanism, wherein the actuating component changes the display element via a second signaling mechanism that is moved by the rotation of the actuating component, and wherein the first and second signaling mechanisms are included in a seating system for the vehicle; and a corrugated spring steel sheet having a portion fixed to the base plate and a portion coupled to a plastics component, wherein the corrugated spring steel sheet is located and sized with respect to the base plate and the hook such that the plastics component is elastically held against the pin by corrugated spring steel sheet when the pin is held between the base plate and the hook. |
