Anchorage devices are disclosed for use in an anchorage system, especially for vehicle seats, using a floor track having a longitudinal channel whose opening has opposed lips with a series of periodic circular cut-outs. The anchorage device has enlarged slidable feet (104) which are insertable into the opening of the track channel at the cut-outs, and when slid along are held captive beneath the lips of the track. A releasable locking mechanism is provided for locking the device longitudinally to the track, so that the feet (104) can be held in the captive position. Preferably the device has an elongate body, with the locking mechanism operated by a lever at one end. The top surfaces (143) of at least some of the feet (104) are longitudinally inclined relative to the longitudinal direction. When slid to the captive position they come into contact or near contact with the underside of the track lips, reducing or preventing rattle relative to the track.
Anchorage device, for use in an anchorage system with a track having an upwardly-open longitudinal channel with a top channel opening defined between opposed overhanging lips, the top channel opening having a series of periodic cut-outs;
