  • Publication number: 20220161693
    Abstract: An end cap for a rail of a longitudinal adjuster has a covering portion, for covering an end-face end of the rail, and a fastening portion, for fastening the end cap to the rail. The fastening portion may be connected to the covering portion forming a four-bar-linkage coupling mechanism. The longitudinal adjuster for a vehicle seat may have at least one pair of rails which is formed from the first rail and the second rail, which is guided displaceably in the longitudinal direction relative to the first rail. At least the first rail or the second rail has at least one opening for the fastening of the end cap for an end of the respective rail. The longitudinal adjuster may have an end cap fastened in the opening.

  • Patent number: 11230208
    Abstract: A vehicle seat longitudinal adjuster (106) includes a seat track pair (1) with a lower seat track (2) and an upper seat track (4) that mutually engage one another for guided relative and longitudinal direction (x) movement. The lower seat track (2) has a substantially C-shaped profile (20, 22) with sections (24) that are bent downward at the ends. The upper seat track (4) has a substantially U-shaped profile (40, 42) with end sections (44) that are bent upward; the relative displaceability of the two seat tracks (2, 4) with respect to one another is limited by means of an interaction of an end stop (30) disposed on the lower seat track (2) with a stop element (48) disposed on the upper seat track (4), and wherein the end stop (30) is designed in the form of an extension of part of the downward bent sections (24) and the lower seat track (2) comprises a slotted hole (32) in the region of the end stop (30).

  • Publication number: 20190375314
    Abstract: A seat rail pair (1) for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, includes a lower rail (2) and an upper rail (4). The upper rail (4) is guided displaceably in the longitudinal direction relative to the lower rail (2). Profiles of the rails are mutually in engagement. The lower rail (2) has a substantially C-shaped profile (20, 22) with portions (24) bent downwards at the ends. The upper rail (4) has a substantially U-shaped profile (40, 42) with end portions (44) bent upwards. Rolling bodies (8a, 8b) are arranged in two lower rolling-body raceways (10a) and two upper rolling-body raceways (10b) between the lower rail (2) and the upper rail (4). A part of the end portions (44) making contact with the rolling bodies (8a) arranged in the lower rolling-body raceways (10a) has a flat supporting surface (46).
