Abstract
A power seat adjuster includes first and second side rail assemblies, each formed of a plastic outer member and a substantially tubular inner member. One of the outer member and inner member is fixed to the vehicle. The other of the outer member and inner member is movably disposed with respect to the one outer member and inner member. An elevation assembly is coupled between the movable one of the outer member and inner member and a seat support member for elevating the seat support member relative to the first and second side rail assemblies. The elevation assembly includes plastic piano-type drive hinges.
