A track assembly for a vehicle seat includes a first track member and a reinforcing member. The first track member has a first portion defining a first set of apertures configured to receive a locking device. The reinforcing member, which may be in the form of a plate, is coupled to the first portion and defines a second set of apertures corresponding to the first set of apertures. The second set of apertures are also configured to receive the locking device. The reinforcing member is configured to reinforce the first track member in an area around and between the first set of apertures.

Vehicle seat track

A track assembly for a vehicle seat includes a first track () having a first portion and a second track () coupled to the first track (). The track assembly also includes a first set () and a second set () of friction reducing members provided at first and second locations between the first track and the second track to facilitate sliding movement of the second track () relative to the first track (). A device for preventing the sliding movement of the second track is provided that includes a pin configured to lock the second track in place relative to the first track by engaging a first portion () of the first track (), a first portion () of the second track (), and a second portion () of the second track (). The pin extends between the first set () of friction reducing members and the second set () of friction reducing members when the second track is prevented from sliding.
