Abstract
An arrangement for securing springs in a vehicle seat frame, which comprises holes formed in the vehicle seat frame and anchor members. The anchor members are each formed by a plate spring comprising a generally “U” shaped body portion and a pair of flange portions, with a whole of such metallic plate spring being coated with a synthetic resin material. Each of the anchor members is fitted in each of the holes, and each of the support springs is engaged with the generally “U” shaped body portion of each of the anchor members, whereby the support springs are secured in the vehicle seat frame. In this arrangement, a through-hole may be formed in that anchor member's “U” shaped body portion, so that other support springs of different modes may each be engaged in such through-hole, instead of being engaged with the “U” shaped body portion.
