Abstract: A locking device for preventing a seat from coming loose when the vehicle is moving includes a plate provided with at least one recess (3) for receiving the leg of a seat, and at least one sliding block (4) having at least one open L-shaped notch (5) and able to move between a position in which the open portion of the notch faces the recess and provides a passage for a transverse pin located on said leg, and a locking position in which the closed portion of the notch (5) faces said recess and prevent said pin from being freed, a device (7) urges the sliding block towards its locking position.

Abstract: The closure device is suitable for use as a lateral door or a back door of a passenger vehicle. It comprises a closure member movable between a closure position on a frame and a fully open position. The linkage connecting the closure member to a body provided with the frame has first arms and second arms. The first arms are pivotally mounted on the body for rotation about a horizontal axis and are pivotally mounted at their other end on a closure member about another axis parallel to the first axis. The second arms each have an end mounted on the body for pivotal movement about a horizontal axis parallel to the other axis and another end pivotally mounted on the closure member for rotation about an axis parallel to the other axis. The second arms are telescopic and have a retracted condition in which they have a first length and an expanded condition in which they have a second length greater than the first length.

Abstract: A movable seat assembly, such as a removable vehicle seat, comprising a structure having front legs and rear legs, each of the legs including a fork member and arranged to co-operate with a fixed attachment rod of a frame. A movable lock member is provided on each leg and is used to lock the leg on the corresponding attachment rod. A return biasing means is provided for urging each of the lock members into its locked position, and manually operated means are provided for actuating each of the lock members into its unlocked position, against the return biasing means, in order to release the seat legs from the corresponding attachment rods.
