  • Patent number: 6318802
    Abstract: In an arrangement for a seat (2) in a vehicle, the seat is movable in a longitudinal direction along a plane (33) which slopes relative to the horizontal plane. The subframe of the seat (2) consists of devices (30, 31) fastened respectively to the vehicle and to the seat, which devices consist of two substantially similar triangular supporting frames. Resetting between a predetermined driving position and a likewise predetermined resting position is made possible by a control device (16) which is fastened to the device (30) which is itself fastened to the vehicle, which control device cooperates with a locking device fastened to the seat so that during a relocating movement between forward and rear positions of the seat the locking device (17) becomes free from at least one locking position between the vehicle seat and the device (30) fastened to the vehicle.
