Abstract

A latch 30 for use in a track assembly 16 for adjusting the position of a vehicle seat 10 has a one-piece construction and operates non-linearly an X-Y plane within a space 20 defined by the first and second track members 17 and 19 of the track assembly 16. A blocker member 44 limits the latch member 31 from disengaging the first and second track members 17 and 19 and includes an optimized latch and track engagement construction and a separate blocker member 44 for optimizing engagement of the latch 30 and track member 17 and moveable for allowing disengagement of the latch 30. The track assembly 16 containing a part includes an actuator 34 for operating the latch 30 and the actuator 34 includes a connector 32 for pivotally connecting the actuator 34 to the track assembly 16 and for connecting the latch 30 to one of the first and second track members 17 and 19.
