The present invention pertains to a seat slide device having: a lower rail fixed above a floor and extending in one direction; an upper rail connected to a seat and capable of moving along the lower rail; a drive pulley connected to a drive source and attached to the seat or the upper rail; an ended belt wound on the drive pulley so that one surface contacts the drive pulley, both ends of the ended belt being fixed to the floor or the lower rail; and a first and second pressing member attached to a position on the floor side of the seat or the upper rail closer than the drive pulley, each pressing member contacting the other surface of the ended belt, and the first pressing member, the drive pulley, and the second pressing member being disposed in the stated order along the one direction.

Seat slide device

A seat slider device may include: a lower rail attachable to a body of a vehicle; an upper rail attachable to a seat and slidably engaging with the lower rail; at least one roller provided in the upper rail and pressed against the lower rail or the body of the vehicle; and an actuator configured to rotate the at least one roller.

Seat slider device

A seat slider device may include: a lower rail attachable to a body of a vehicle and including grooves arranged in a for direction of the lower rail; an upper rail attachable to a seat and slidably engaging with the lower rail; and a lock lever including a plurality of protrusions configured to engage with the grooves, supported by the upper rail to be swingable in a direction bringing the protrusions close to the grooves and in a direction bringing the protrusions away from the grooves, and biased in the direction bringing the protrusions close to the grooves. A portion of the lock lever between a pivot of the lock lever and the protrusions may have elasticity such that the portion flexes in the direction bringing the protrusions close to the grooves and in the direction bringing the protrusions away from the grooves.

A seat slider device may include a lower rail attachable to a body of a vehicle; a belt arranged along a longitudinal direction of the lower rail and having both ends thereof fixed; and an upper rail attachable to a seat, slidably engaging with the lower rail, and including an actuator configured to feed the belt. The actuator may be configured to apply a drive force on a lower surface of the belt.
