Abstract: An anchor comprises first, second and third flanges. A surface of the first flange facing the second flange defines a plane. A contour of the first flange projected onto the plane extending beyond a contour of the second flange projected onto the plane. A base connecting part includes the third flange and the second flange. An accessory connecting part operatively connected to the base connecting part includes the first flange. The third flange is movable relative to at least one of the first and second flanges between a first position and a second position. In the first position, a contour of the third flange projected onto the plane is contained within the contour of the second flange projected onto the plane. In the second position, the contour of the third flange projected onto the plane extends beyond the contour of the second flange projected onto the plane.

Abstract: A vehicle has a body. A pivotable seat has a front portion pivotally connected to the body about a front pivot point and extending rearwardly therefrom to a back portion. A rear left leg is pivotally connected to the body about a left lower pivot point and to the back portion to about a left upper pivot point. A rear right leg is pivotally connected to the body about a right lower pivot point and to the back portion about a right upper pivot point. A distance between the lower pivot points is greater than a distance between the upper pivot points. The seat is pivotable relative to the body about an instantaneous seat pivot axis passing through the front pivot point, a left axis extending through the left upper and lower pivot points, and a right axis extending through the right upper and lower pivot points.

Abstract: An anchor comprises first, second and third flanges. A surface of the first flange facing the second flange defines a plane. A contour of the first flange projected onto the plane extending beyond a contour of the second flange projected onto the plane. A base connecting part includes the third flange and the second flange. An accessory connecting part operatively connected to the base connecting part includes the first flange. The third flange is movable relative to at least one of the first and second flanges between a first position and a second position. In the first position, a contour of the third flange projected onto the plane is contained within the contour of the second flange projected onto the plane. In the second position, the contour of the third flange projected onto the plane extends beyond the contour of the second flange projected onto the plane.
