Abstract: A vehicle seat support frame includes inboard and outboard support assemblies each having a longitudinal base member providing an upstanding strut supporting an elevated front pivot pin. The base member aft end is formed with a downwardly and rearwardly angled brace having a foot pivotally connected to the lower end of a rear link. The link upper end is pivoted to an aft end of a longitudinal carriage having an elongated side slot receiving the elevated front pivot pin, wherein with the link inclined rearwardly the elevated pin is positioned at a front slot limit. A lower rail, fixed on the carriage, slidably supports an upper track member fixed to a seat cushion frame, for seat assembly adjustment.

Abstract: An improved asymmetric wire-hook for a closure one-piece latch wire retainer pivotally mounted to a hinged member wherein the hook is latched upon rotation through an elongated slot of an anchor member. The retainer includes axially aligned wire-lengths terminating in spaced apart opposed bend portions interconnected by the wire-hook. The wire-hook includes one end of a long finger connected to one bend portion and sloped downwardly at a predetermined obtuse-angle relative to one wire length and a short finger connected to the other bend portion and extending downwardly at a right angle relative to the remaining wire length. The long finger lower end terminates in a first acute-angled bend juncture connected to a proximate end of a single lead-in wire segment upwardly sloped at a relatively steep incline while the short finger lower end terminates in a second acute-angle bend juncture connected to a proximate end of a single lead-out wire segment upwardly sloped at a relatively flat incline.
