ABSTRACT:
A seat assembly for a motor vehicle is shown, which comprises a lower rail secured to a floor of the vehicle; an upper rail slidably engaged with the lower rail; a base structure secured to the upper rail to move therewith; a seat cushion held by the base structure in a manner to pivot between a horizontal operative position and an upright inoperative position; a seat slide latching mechanism for selectively latching and unlatching the upper rail relative to the lower rail; a seat cushion latching mechanism for selectively latching and unlatching the seat cushion at the horizontal operative and upright inoperative positions relative to the base structure; and a control handle incorporated with both the seat slide latching mechanism and the seat cushion latching mechanism. The control handle is so arranged that only when the seat cushion assumes the upright inoperative position, a movement of the control handle in a given direction causes the seat slide latching mechanism to unlatch the upper rail from the lower rail.
