Abstract
The invention pertains to a vehicle seat with a floor track assembly which makes it possible to change the number and/or the seating arrangement in a passenger compartment by displacing the seats on the floor tracks. It is proposed that a situation be achieved via a combination of a defined track profile and an arrestment mechanism whereby the displacement of the seats on the tracks can be smoothly carried out with large tolerances in a manner which is insensitive to dirt and whereby complete freedom from play and rattling of the seat assembly is nevertheless ensured in the arrested state.
