PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To rotatably support a locking member with a simpler configuration in a seat slide device.SOLUTION: A locking member 20 is movably and rotatably supported along a longitudinal direction L between both side wall sections. A spring 50 energizes the locking member 20 in a direction in which the locking member 20 is located at a locking position and elastically holds the position of the locking member 20 in the longitudinal direction L. In this configuration, the locking member 20 is rotatable while moving in the longitudinal direction L according to an operation of a release handle. Accordingly, the locking member 20 is rotatably supported without having a definite rotary shaft. Therefore, the locking member 20 can be rotatably supported with a simpler configuration. 【課題】シートスライド装置において、より簡易な構成で係止部材を回動可能に支持することにある。【解決手段】係止部材２０は、両側壁部間において長手方向に沿って移動可能かつ回動可能に支持されている。また、スプリング５０は、係止部材２０が係止位置となる方向に係止部材２０を付勢するとともに、長手方向Ｌにおける係止部材２０の位置を弾性的に保持する。この構成では、解除ハンドルの操作に応じて、係止部材２０は長手方向に移動しつつ回動可能である。従って、係止部材２０は、明確な回転軸を有することなく回動可能に支持される。よって、より簡易な構成で係止部材２０を回動可能に支持できる。【選択図】図６
