Abstract

This concerns a slide rail for a vehicle seat including a fixed section and a "U" shaped mobile section, a memorization runner sliding along the fixed section and defining a memorized position of the mobile section, a runner catch, a first control to simultaneously unlock the slide rail and attach the runner to the mobile section and a second control solely to unlock the slide rail. The memorization runner is brought resiliently to its locked position where it engages with notches provided on the flange of the fixed section. The runner slides on a single flange of the fixed section.
