Seat arrangement with a forced guidance

1. A seat arrangement for a vehicle with a vehicle floor, comprising:

a vehicle seat;

a longitudinal guide coupled to the vehicle seat such that the vehicle seat is configured to be displaceable along a longitudinal axis;

a transverse guide coupled to the vehicle seat such that the vehicle seat is configured to be displaceable along a transverse axis; and

a sliding block guide coupled to the vehicle seat and configured to guide the vehicle seat along a displacement path as the vehicle seat is displaced with at least one of the longitudinal guide along the longitudinal axis or the transverse guide along the transverse axis,

the sliding block guide comprising

a guide plate defining a guide groove and coupled to the vehicle floor, and

a guide post coupled to the vehicle seat and disposed in the guide groove to direct the vehicle seat along the displacement path.

2. The seat arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the guide groove comprises at least one inclined section that extends at a first angle (α) relative to the longitudinal axis and at a second angle relative to the transverse axis.

3. The seat arrangement according to claim 2 , wherein the first angle (α) is between about 0° and 90°.

4. The seat arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the guide groove comprises a first section that extends at a first angle (α) of approximately 0° relative to the longitudinal axis.

5. The seat arrangement according to claim 4 , wherein the guide groove further comprises a second section that extends at a second angle of greater than 0° relative to the longitudinal axis, the first section being disposed forward of the second section in a direction of travel.

6. The seat arrangement according to claims 5 , wherein the guide groove further comprises a third section that extends at a third angle of approximately 0° relative to the longitudinal axis.

7. The seat arrangement according to claim 6 , wherein the second section is disposed forward of the third section.

8. The seat arrangement according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one inclined section of the guide groove is configured to direct the vehicle seat in a first transverse direction while being displaced in a first longitudinal direction, the first transverse direction being toward a center of the vehicle and the first longitudinal direction being toward a rear end of the vehicle.

9. The seat arrangement according to claim 1 , further comprising a lock configured to lock the vehicle seat along the displacement path.

10. The seat arrangement according to claim 9 , further comprising a lock release for unlocking the vehicle seat along the displacement path.

11. The seat arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the transverse guide is disposed underneath the longitudinal guide on the vehicle floor.

12. The seat arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein the vehicle floor defines a recess, and wherein the transverse guide is disposed in the recess.

13. The seat arrangement according to claim 12 , wherein the vehicle floor defines an upper side, and wherein the transverse guide comprises a upper portion and is disposed in the recess in such a manner that the upper portion of the transverse guide is disposed in a plane with the upper side of the vehicle floor.

14. The seat arrangement according to claim 12 , further comprising carpet flooring disposed on the vehicle floor and extending over the transverse guide in the recess.

15. The seat arrangement according to claim 14 , wherein the carpet flooring has a slot extending above the transverse guide.

16. The seat arrangement according to claim 2 , wherein the first angle is about 45°.
