  • Adjustable cantilever vehicle seat mounting assemblies and seat systems including the same
    Patent number: 12448128
    Abstract: Seat mounting assemblies and vehicle seat systems which include the same are provided whereby a pivot bracket is operatively connected to a mounting bracket for reciprocal vertical movements while a tubular support member is operatively be associated with the pivot bracket so as to be pivotally movable about a substantially vertical central axis of the pivot bracket. A cantilevered support base arm is fixed to and extends outwardly from the tubular support member. An arm member is telescopically connected to the cantilevered support base arm to allow reciprocal rectilinear movements relative to the support base arm along a substantially horizontal axis thereof between retracted and extended positions thereof and carries a swivel plate at a distal end thereof to thereby allow swivel movements of a vehicle seat about a substantially vertical seat axis parallel to the substantially vertical central axis of the pivot bracket.
