Abstract: A positioning system is provided for moving a seat back in a vehicle between a seating position and a cargo storage position. The positioning system includes a release mechanism actuatable between a first position to permit movement of the seat back and a second position to prevent movement of the seat back. A first actuator is provided on the seat back near an upper corner of the seat back and a second actuator is provided on the seat back near a lower corner of the seat back, so that the seat back can be moved from the cargo storage position to the seating position by a person actuating the first actuator from a location alongside the vehicle and by a person actuating the second actuator from a location behind the vehicle.

Abstract: A seat belt anchorage mechanism, particularly adapted for motor vehicles, which allows a seat belt anchorage to move with the seat during fore-and-aft adjustment of the seat for improved occupant comfort and convenience. The mechanism has a toothed track fixed to the vehicle structure with a rail attached to the seat cushion slidable along the track. The belt anchorage assembly has a pair of separated plates having an engaging shaft positioned in close proximity to the toothed track. The anchorage assembly is fastened to a slide rail by frangible fasteners. When a load above a predetermined level is applied to the anchorage, the fasteners fail and enable the engaging shaft to mesh with a toothed track, thus locking the track and rail together and restraining forward excursion of the anchorage.
