ABSTRACT:
A seat cushion frame is mounted on a vehicle floor panel by a composite anchor member adapted to be snap-fitted into position in a panel aperture. The anchor member includes a plastic lower shell part bonded to an upper rubber seal ring part. The shell part has an oval-section hollow socket portion with its upper open end, adapted to receive a frame mounted striker, formed with a peripheral inverted U-section collar portion ending in a V-section terminal spring flange. The rubber seal ring provides a right-angled section defining a horizontal sealing lip portion and vertical neck portion formed with a resilient shoulder adapted to lockingly engage the rolled edge of the floor panel aperture. The seal ring part is formed with a U-shaped loop bonded to the inner surface of the shell socket defining vertically disposed wedge-shaped ribs having opposed ramp faces establishing a lead-in gaped notch. Upon the striker bight portion being received in the notch and pushed downwardly the resultant wedging action causes the shell socket and opposed collar portions to deform outwardly allowing the bight portion to snapingly pass through the gap for locking capture in the anchor member.
