A welcoming slide rail, mounted at the bottom of a seat, the welcoming slide rail including: a slide rail assembly, including a left slide rail and a right slide rail, the left slide rail including a left upper rail and a left lower rail, the right slide rail including a right upper rail and a right lower rail, the left upper rail and the left lower rail being in sliding connection by a left motor, and the right upper rail and the right lower rail being in sliding connection by a right motor; and a rotating mechanism, including a wall plate, first, second and third main rotation points, and first and second auxiliary supporting points, the wall plate being fixedly connected to the bottom of the seat.

A vehicle seat includes a cushion, a seatback connected to the cushion and a track arrangement. The track arrangement includes a curved fixed track and a flexible track follower that is moveable along the curved fixed track between a full slouch and a full upright position. The curved fixed track is connected to a vehicle seat support base and the moveable track is connected to the cushion.

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.

A motor vehicle seating system is provided. The seating system comprises two or more seats and a guide track extending between three or more spaced apart seating positions within an interior of the motor vehicle, wherein each of the seats is movably coupled to the guide track, such that the seats are movable between the seating positions. A seat, suitable for use in the motor vehicle seating system is also provided.

A vehicle seat includes a cushion frame, a base portion, and a guide structure. The guide structure includes a rail and a rolling mechanism. The rolling mechanism includes an upper guide roller, a lower guide roller, and a roller holder. The rolling mechanism is sandwiched by an upper rolling surface and a lower rolling surface of the rail. The guide structure is configured such that when an occupant load is input to the cushion frame, the guide roller and the rolling surface at one of a first contact point or a second contact point come relatively close together, such that pressure increases, due to a relative position of the roller holder and the rail changing, with the other of the first contact point or the second contact point as a reference point.

A method of moving a vehicle seat between a forward-facing orientation and a rear-facing orientation includes the steps of: translating the vehicle seat within the vehicle along a track, the track extending in a direction having a component in a lengthwise direction of the vehicle and in a width-wise direction of the vehicle; and rotating the vehicle seat relative to the track.

A vehicle seat, includes a guide describing a trajectory, said vehicle seat being movable on the guide along the trajectory so that the vehicle seat is moved away from a vehicle center, and a front side of the vehicle seat is rotated about a vertical axis of the vehicle seat toward the vehicle center.

A vehicle includes a wall having a cylindrical shape and surrounding a passenger compartment. The vehicle includes a table in the passenger compartment, a circular track fixed in the compartment and extending around the table, and a plurality of seats mounted to and independently slidable along the track.

A vehicle seat sliding apparatus includes an upper rail that supports a seat at an upper side, a lower rail that supports the upper rail to be relatively movable manner in a longitudinal direction of the upper rail, and a lock mechanism configured to restrain the upper rail from moving relative to the lower rail. The upper rail includes two side walls that are opposed in a width direction of the upper rail and an upper wall that connects the two side walls. The upper wall has a plurality of seat fasteners. The upper rail has at least one hole between a longitudinal end of the upper rail and one of the seat fasteners closest to the longitudinal end. The hole is a cutout formed in each of the two side walls and the upper wall.

The present disclosure relates to a slide block, the slide block assembly having a ball bushing bearing may include: a slide block which has formed at one side thereof a guide receiving part capable of receiving a slide guide of which at least a portion is formed as a linear section or a curved section; and a ball bushing bearing of which the inner surface is formed so as to correspond to the slide guide so as to be capable of making sliding contact with the slide guide, and the outer surface is formed so as to correspond to the guide receiving part so as to be capable of making rolling contact with the guide receiving part by means of a ball method.
