Abstract

The invention relates to a device for mounting a seat on a mounting rail. This device comprises a base that comprises a band operable for linking to a seat, a groove that can receive the sliding nut guide rail, and a longitudinal blocking piston insertable in a suitable section of the mounting rail such that the piston is restrained longitudinally, a sliding nut comprising protrusions that form lateral lips, and a guide rail insertable into the groove of the base, said sliding nut being arranged so as to slide in relation to said base when said base is releasably secured to said mounting rail with the protrusions in the rail, between an installation position and a blocked position, and a control lever hinged to the base and to the sliding nut, so as to cause said lever to move in between an open position in which the sliding nut is in its installation position and a closed position in which the sliding nut is in its blocked position.
