Abstract:
A seat slide adjuster suited to weight-saving has a structure in which two rows of engaged portions are provided at a predetermined interval in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of a locking plate that constitutes a locking mechanism, and the engaged portions engage with locking tooth parts on both sides of a lower rail during locking. Force that works between the locking plate and the lower rail acts on the locking tooth parts on both sides in a well-balanced manner and is not biased to either side. As a result, the durability of the components thereof can be improved. In addition, because two rows of hole portions in the locking plate engage, rattling of the locking plate is not likely to occur.

Claim (Index 9):
The seat slide adjuster according to  claim 1 , wherein the lower rail includes a bottom wall; a pair of opposing first side walls that stand upright from each side of the bottom wall; a pair of top walls that are bent inward toward each other from upper edges of each of the first side walls and have opposing edges separated from each other by a predetermined distance; and inner walls that are bent downward from inner end edges of the upper walls, the locking tooth parts that protrude downward in a comb shape being formed in the inner walls,\n wherein the upper rail includes an upper wall; a pair of opposing second side walls that are bent downward from each side of the upper wall; and folded pieces that are folded outwardly upward from lower end portions of each of the second side walls, wherein the upper rail is disposed such that the folded pieces are positioned between each of the first side walls and the inner walls of the lower rail, wherein each of the folded pieces of the upper rail includes a first inclined piece that extends upward obliquely outward from lower edge portions of the second side walls, and a second inclined piece that extends upward obliquely outward after being bent inward from the first inclined piece, wherein a rolling member is disposed between each of the first inclined piece and the second inclined piece and the lower rail opposed thereto, and wherein the first inclined piece and the second inclined piece are formed at an inclination angle at which respective imaginary extension lines that extend outward of the first inclined piece and the second inclined piece intersect each other.
