Abstract

A vehicle seating assembly comprises a seat base, which includes a seat shell and an extension bracket, and an actuator that functionally connects the extension bracket to the seat shell. The actuator is designed to drive the movement of the extension bracket relative to the seat shell. The actuator includes a rotatable spindle extending from the extension bracket toward the seat shell and a spindle nut screwed onto the rotatable spindle. The spindle nut is designed to provide axial and rotatable locking in a seat shell opening. Rotation of the spindle drives the movement of the extension bracket relative to the seat shell.
