First Claim
Patent Images
1. An actuation lever for a longitudinal adjustment device of a car seat, comprising:
- a gripping section; and
an attachment section for mechanically coupling the actuation lever with a locking unit of the longitudinal adjustment device,wherein at least one of the attachment section and the gripping section is at least partially an injection molded plastic part, and wherein the attachment section comprises a reinforcing rib that runs inclined to a longitudinal extension of the attachment section and forms a part of a multi-sided hollow section, wherein the hollow section extends essentially parallel to a swiveling motion of the actuation lever, andwherein the attachment section comprises at least two positive-fit elements spaced radially apart relative to a swiveling axis, which in an assembled state on the longitudinal adjustment device that interacts with corresponding positive-fit elements of the locking unit to form a positive connection between the actuation lever and the longitudinal adjustment device.
