A seat slide device that can adjust sliding resistance of sliding of an upper rail with respect to a lower rail in an unlock state is provided. The seat slide device is provided in a vehicle and includes a lower rail fixed to a floor of a vehicle, an upper rail fixed to a seat of the vehicle and supported to be capable of sliding with respect to the lower rail, a lock mechanism configured to switch a lock state in which movement of the upper rail is restricted and an unlock state in which the movement of the upper rail is allowed, and an adjusting mechanism configured to adjust sliding resistance of sliding of the upper rail with respect to the lower rail in the unlock state.

Emergency vehicle patient transport systems are disclosed. In one embodiment, an emergency vehicle patient transport system includes: a loading passage providing access to an interior of an emergency vehicle; one or more tracks coupled to a floor of the emergency vehicle, a ceiling of the emergency vehicle, a wall of the emergency vehicle or combinations thereof wherein, a travel path is delineated by the one or more tracks; and a chair slidingly engaged with the one or more tracks, and vertically positioned between the floor and the ceiling. The chair locks in one or more set positions. And, the one or more set positions are selected from a group consisting of an airway care position, an extended airway care position, a procedural care position, a responder position, a patient care position, and a patient load position.

An embodiment rail device includes an upper rail, a first bearing support on the upper rail, a lower rail, a bearing connection end on the lower rail and inserted into the first bearing support, a vertically elongated bearing contact adjustment hole on the lower rail, an upper bearing rotatably connected to the bearing connection end and in close contact with a floor of the first bearing support, a lower plate including a fastening groove that receives a lower end of the lower rail, a bearing shaft mounting hole on a wall surface portion of the fastening groove and matched with the bearing contact adjustment hole, a second bearing support outside the fastening groove and having an opened upper portion, a lower bearing rotatably disposed within the second bearing support, and a bearing shaft fastened to the bearing shaft mounting hole and the bearing contact adjustment hole by a screw.

A vehicle seat console includes at least one vehicle-side guide element and at least one seat-side guide element arranged parallel to the vehicle-side guide element. A length-adjustment device, which is acted on by a drive device and which is designed to bring about a relative displacement between the vehicle-side guide element and the seat-side guide element, is designed such that the length-adjustment device is provided between the seat-side guide element and a force-limiting apparatus, which is in turn coupled to the vehicle-side guide element.

A slide rail for a motor vehicle seat, comprises a first profile, a second profile and an interior space which extends in a longitudinal direction, the interior space extending between the first profile and the second profile, the second profile being movable relative to the first profile, rolling elements which are arranged in the interior space and configured to guide the movement of the second profile relative to the first profile in the longitudinal direction, and a runner which is arranged in the interior space and holds the second profile relative to the first profile in a support direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, wherein the runner is selectively connected to the first profile or to the second profile.

A power long rail assembly is attached to a vehicle floor for repositioning vehicle seats in a vehicle between a plurality of seating positions. The power long rail assembly includes a fixed long rail and a power rail drive assembly configured to travel along the fixed long rail. The power rail drive assembly has an upper channel having a driving wheel configured to frictionally and/or meshingly engage with the fixed long rail, a fore/aft motor operatively coupled to the driving wheel, a latch assembly for locking the upper channel to the fixed long rail, and a latch release mechanism having a latch motor operatively coupled to a release plunger for automatically unlocking the latch assembly from the fixed long rail, and a fore/aft button operatively coupled to the fore/aft motor and to the latch motor to selectively activate the fore/aft motor and the latch motor.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat comprising a seat part and a backrest part, the seat part being configured shell-shaped on the lower face, at least one front end of the seat part being displaceable forwards and upwards in a combined manner and the inclination of the seat part being adjustable by means of an adjustment movement of the seat part with respect to a seat support shell arranged below the seat part.

A vehicle seat includes a load sensor for measuring a load applied from an occupant and a seat cushion frame, wherein the seat cushion frame comprises right and left side frames extending in a front-and-rear direction, the load sensor is attached to the seat cushion frame, and a concave portion is formed in at least one of the right and left side frames at a position opposite to the load sensor.
