Abstract
A seat frame assembly includes a seat portion and a seat back. Upper and lower tracks are positioned beneath the seat portion. The upper track is connected to the seat portion. The tracks are slidable relative to one another to move the seat portion and the seat back. A seat belt restraint is positioned underneath the seat back between the seat portion and the upper track and is connected to the upper track. A riser is positioned on a floor beneath the lower track. A load cell is interposed between the lower track and the riser at a level below the seat belt restraint. A fastener extending through the cell mounts the lower track to the riser. The cell generates a signal indicative of the weight of a seat portion occupant. A spring may be interposed between the cell and the lower track to impart a predetermined load on the cell to enhance the system resolution.
