ABSTRACT:
A vehicle seat has a mounting structure comprising a pair of interengaged tracks slidably mounting the vehicle seat and a pair of locking assemblies operatively associated with the tracks to selectively engage and disengage each of said interengaged tracks and a bi-directional actuation assembly. The bi-directional actuation assembly has a rotatably mounted handle. A roller is mounted on a pivotally mounted lever. The lever operatively connects the handle to the roller. A spring biases the roller to a neutral position. A cable is tensionally associated with each of the locking assemblies and extends over the roller. Rotation of the handle in either direction responsively moves the roller against the bias thereby tensioning the cable and moving both of the locking assemblies to a disengage position.
