  • Publication number: 20040080193
    Abstract: Wire rods used as child safety seat anchorages are mechanically attached to seat component, e.g., to a recliner mechanism or other seat frame element. The wire rods may also be spot welded or otherwise coupled to the mechanism, primarily for the purpose of positioning the wire rod at the prescribed location within a vehicle so that hooks or other connectors from a child seat can be attached thereto. Tabs on a retainer plate hold the wire rod against the recliner mechanism and cause the wire rod to rotate with the seat back, when adjusted by the recliner mechanism, and a rivet mechanically attaches the retainer plate and wire rod to the recliner mechanism.
