lMy invention relates to improvements in seat Constructions, and it consists in the combinations, constructions, and arrangements herein described `and claimed.
improvements in the invention disclosed in my Aco-pendingv application, Serial No. 285,493, filed June-14, 1928.` in the above named application, a seat is slidably connected to a swivelled block by means of a plate secured to the underface of theseat I provided with, L-shaped guidesor flanges embracing the block.k This plate and lL- shaped guides or ylangesar'e disclosed as a unitary casting. i
An object of my invention is to ,provide a seat .construction in which means is incory porated for permittingv a seatreturn toA be associated with my construction. n
.A furtherobject is to provide adevicef of the type described'which may be cast in such a manner as toy require a minimum of material and toprovide a maximum of strength and efliciency.

, From the foregoing description of the va- 5 rions parts of the device, the operation thereof may he readily'understood. In Figure 4 I haveshovvn a seat assembly incorporating my invention. In o aeration it Willrbe seen that the seat S-may e moved laterally with fm respect to the standard 2. The shank 10 is revolubly supported so thatthe seat 3 is permitted to be' rotated With respect to the standard 2 and at the same time tombe moved laterally with respect thereto. The steel plateI gf.; 14: provides a sliding surface for thesliding` member 9 and-'at the same time protects `the' seat 3. y i i I claim: l 1.. `A seat construction comprising a seat, 4a'. a guide casing secured to the seat and having an opel'ling therein, al sliding member disposed WithinV the guide casing and having a shank projecting through the opening in said guide casing, and a pin secured toV said 45 sliding member and adapted to be connected with a seat return. y Y
