ABSTRACT:
A power seat positioning device for automatically adjusting the horizontal fore and aft position of a seat within a vehicle using a single electric motor. A lower track assembly is attached to a vehicle floor and includes a first and second laterally spaced lower track members. An associated upper track assembly attaches to a vehicle seat and includes a first and second upper track member which slide within the first and second lower track members respectively to adjust the for and aft position of the seat within the vehicle. A drive motor and gearbox arrangement is supported on the first upper track to provide the motive force which drives only the first upper track relative to the first lower seat track. A brace member directly connects the first upper track to the second upper track to coordinate the horizontal position of the first upper seat track with the position of the second upper seat track.
