A seat support for use with a vehicle seat and adapted to engage a
floor-mounted track, the track having two inwardly directed lips on
opposed sides of a slot. The seat support has a framework to support the
seat, and which is provided with a clamping mechanism to engage the lips
of the track. The clamping mechanism has two spaced apart plates, with the
spaced apart plates having inwardly inclined lower regions. The lower edge
of each plate carries an outwardly directed flange. A mechanism is
provided to move the lower regions outwardly against an inherent
resistance bias provided by the plates from an initial position in which
the flanges may be inserted between the lips of the track to an outer
clamping position in which the flanges engage the lips of the track. A
knife element is mounted between the plates and is adapted to be moved
between an upper position and a lower clamping position.
