Abstract
In a vehicle seat attached to the floor of the vehicle via a rail device and a lock device, the mechanical stiffness of the rail device and the lock device is increased without increasing the overall weight of the vehicle seat and without unduly increasing the manufacturing cost. The vehicle seat further comprises at least one upper hook member (A) depending from one of the upper rails, and at least one lower hook member (B) extending upward from a part of the corresponding lock device or a member securing the lock device to a corresponding lower rail such that the upper and lower hook members are spaced apart from each other, but jointly prevent an upward movement of the upper rail away from the lower rail.
