ABSTRACT:
A lumbar support system includes a fixed mounting bracket having a first traction cable sleeve support, a second sleeve support and a slider guide. A traction cable having a wire disposed to slide axially through a first sleeve and second sleeve, is attached to the first sleeve support of the fixed mounting bracket and to an actuator operatively engaged with the traction cable wire. A slider is also attached to the traction cable wire, is operatively engaged with the slider guide and adjusts the position of a flexible support element as it slides along the slider guide.
