Abstract:
1. A longitudinal adjustor for a vehicle seat, comprising: at least one first seat rail to be connected to a vehicle structure and at least one second seat rail to be connected to the vehicle seat, wherein the first and second seat rails engage around one another to form a rail profile and are movable relative to one another in the longitudinal direction; a rail locking member which locks the seat rails to one another, wherein the rail locking member is arranged at least for the most part within the rail profile formed by the first and second seat rails; an unlocking unit arranged at least for the most part within the rail profile formed by the first and second seat rails; an activation arrangement for activating the unlocking unit; and a force-transmitting element, which connects the activation arrangement to the unlocking unit, wherein the force-transmitting element is inserted by one end from the side into the second seat rail, extends into the rail profile of the second seat rail or through the second seat rail, cooperates within the second seat rail with the unlocking unit, wherein a connection via a spline is provided between the force-transmitting element and unlocking unit, and the force-transmitting element, at the same time, is used for the pivotable mounting of the activation arrangement, wherein the unlocking unit has a lever arm and at least one side plate, wherein the at least one side plate can be lowered by the lever arm such that the at least one side plate causes movement of a portion of the rail locking member to bring the rail locking member out of engagement.
