The device includes an unlocking control button sliding in a guide well between (1) a position indicating unlocking, where the head of the button is clearly visible outside of the well, and (2) an unlocking control position where a lower end of the button pushes a lock into an unlocking position enabling the disengagement of a locking component. The device includes a spring returning the button to its position indicating unlocking, and control means to bring the button into an intermediary position where its head is more or less flush with the edge of the well, only when the locking component is in the locking position.

Device for locking a movable element of an automobile vehicle seat onto

A securement system is provided for vehicle seats. A seat part has, on each side, a journal that is engaged in a mounting connected to the vehicle structure. The journal is secured in a throat formed in the mounting by a locking part surrounding the journal and serving as its bearing. The locking part has a locking portion that engages retaining means provided on the sides of the throat. The locking portion is elastically deformable to permit its insertion when mounted on the journal, into the throat and in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the journal.

System for fitting a part of a seat to a motor vehicle

A backrest armature device for a motor vehicle rear seat having two frames which can be folded down independently of one another, each frame including at least a back panel, a horizontal lower beam which is formed in a steel having an elastic limit above 1100 MPa, at least two lateral uprights formed in a steel having an elastic limit which is at most equal to the elastic limit of the lower beam and which is above 450 MPa, and a horizontal upper beam formed in a steel having an elastic limit which is at most equal to the elastic limit of the uprights and which is above 400 MPa.

Backrest armature device for motor vehicle rear seat, and seat including

The system for locking a movable element of a seat to a stationary element comprises a wall of a first one of said elements which is provided with a window into which a hook connected to the other element penetrates following an insertion direction substantially perpendicular to the wall and a resiliently retractable interlocking member constituted by a ring made of a wire of a material resistant to shearing. A shiftable part of the ring extends in contact with the wall across the window. The ring comprises two ends spaced apart from the shiftable part and oriented in a same axial direction perpendicular to the wall and around which the ring can be pivoted, the ends being offset one with respect to the other and the axes of the ends being maintained in a common plane which is stationary with respect to the support. The shiftable part is able to shift by an elastic deformation of the wire in a direction parallel to the wall and cooperates with the hook to provide reliable interlocking.

Locking system for a movable element of a seat of an automotive vehicle

A movable seat for a vehicle, of the type which can be easily joined to or separated from the floor of the vehicle, including at least one unlockable fixing mechanism which can be brought, along a given direction of insertion, to cooperate with retaining means of the floor so as to rigidly join the seat to the floor, characterized in that the fixing mechanism comprises a locking member transversally sliding with respect to the direction of insertion.
