Abstract
A power seat switch device for adjusting a seat position having a single operating knob, a sliding member cooperatively connected to the operating knob, and three lever switches adapted to be selectively operated by the motion of the sliding member. When the common operating knob is moved in one of two opposite directions, the first switch is operated to move the seat to the front and to the rear. On the other hand, when the operating knob is rotated at one end, the sliding member is pivoted about the third switch, thereby operating the second switch. As a result, the height of the front portion of the seat is adjusted. In contrast, when the operating knob is rotated at its other end, the sliding member is pivoted about the second switch, thereby operating the third switch. As a result, the height of the rear portion of the seat is adjusted.
