Device for adjusting inclined position of seats, particularly motor vehicle seats

摘要

The inclination adjuster for motor vehicle seats having a seat carrier extending at lateral sides of the seat and being pivotable at its rear end about a pivot axle supported for rotation on a guiding track assembly, includes gear segments secured to the lateral sides of the track assembly; a transverse axle supported in horizontal guiding slots in the side walls of the seat carrier and each supporting for rotation a gear pinion; a holding bracket having a vertical cutout defining superposed recesses for receiving the shaft in a selected vertical position of the seat and a free vertical passage; and a hand-operated and spring-biased arresting linkage normally urging the transverse shaft into the selected recess and permitting the movement of the shaft in the guiding slot to adjust the vertical position of the seat when actuated.
