ABSTRACT:
A seat slider assembly for supporting a seat on a vehicle so as to be adjustable in its position in a forward or rearward direction of the seat, which includes a rail member to be fixed to a vehicle body and provided with an engaging portion, a rail member to be fixed to the seat, the latter rail member being mounted on the former rail member movably in the longitudinal direction of the rail member, a bracket fixed to said rail member to be fixed to the seat and provided with two curled bearing portions, an operating lever whose shaft portion is pivotably supported by the two curled portions of the bracket and a latch member fixed to the shaft portion of the operating lever and selectively engageable with the engaging portion, the latch member being fitted between the two curled bearing portions; which assembly comprises a ring acting on the shaft portion of the operating lever for holding the latch member in a position where the latch member is pressed against either one of inner end faces of the curled bearing portions of the bracket. With this arrangement, the moving of the latch member in the longitudinal direction is suppressed and shaking and rattling of the latch member is minimized.
