SLIDE SURFACE FOR VEHICLE SEATS

摘要

The slider mechanism comprises a male inverted U-section rail (12) with its edges (16) turned outwards and upwards in the direction of its base (13), and a female U-section rail (11) with its edges turned inwards to cover the edges of the male rail. The edges of the two rails are shaped to form two troughs between them which contain rows of balls (31,33). Each trough has one surface formed by a wavy section of the male rail outer edge and another formed by the enveloping surfaces of the female rail edge. A variant of the design has an additional reinforcing rail which covers the top of the male rail and both ball troughs.
