Abstract

A vehicle seat sliding apparatus includes a lower rail, an upper rail, a slide-lock mechanism that pivots the lock member to a slide-lock position and holds the upper rail in a slide-lock state, and a slide-lock cancellation unit moved by operation of an operation member in a longitudinal direction of the upper rail to cancel an action of the slide-lock mechanism. The slide-lock cancellation unit includes a drive unit and an inclined surface arranged in the drive unit. The drive unit is supported by the upper rail so as to be slidable in the longitudinal direction of the upper rail. Operation of the operation member slides the drive unit. The inclined surface pivots the lock member to a slide-lock cancellation position when sliding.
