Patent Images
1. A passenger weight measurement device for a vehicle seat, comprising:
- a lower rail attachable to a vehicle floor;
an upper rail provided on the lower rail and disposed so as to be movable in a front-and-rear direction on the lower rail;
a load sensor fixed onto the upper rail;
a frame provided on the load sensor and below the vehicle seat;
a rod extended from the load sensor, the rod sequentially penetrates the frame and a receiving member and is inserted into an elastic member, a nut is screwed to the rod from above the receiving member, and the elastic member is sandwiched between the receiving member and the frame and is compressed by tightening the nut to the receiving member; and
a downward extending portion which extends downwardly along the elastic member and is provided in an upper side receiving portion for receiving an upper end of the elastic member.

Abstract
A lower rail is fixed to a vehicle floor, and an upper rail 4 is movable in a rear and front direction with respect to the lower rail. A load sensor is fixed to an upper surface of the upper rail 4. A rectangular frame is attached onto the load sensor, a rod of the load sensor sequentially penetrates a web of the rectangular frame and a spring holder upward, and a coil spring 44 is wound around the rod. A nut is screwed to the rod, and the nut tightens a bottom of a cup portion of the spring holder. The coil spring 44 is sandwiched between a flange of the spring holder and the web and is compressed by tightening the nut.
