摘要:
An improved method of making a more comfortable and easily recyclable body for a vehicle seat component using thermoplastic polymeric fibers is described. This method produces a body of thermoplastic polymeric fibers consisting of zones of different densities.
摘要:
A method for bonding a cover fabric to a cushion body to form a seating component, preferably a seat cushion of a vehicle seat assembly, includes the step of supplying a heated atmosphere, preferably steam under pressure, to a forming tool of a forming apparatus, the forming tool diffusing the heated atmosphere and passing the heated atmosphere out of the tool, through the cover fabric, and into the cushion body to melt an adhesive layer between the cushion body and the cover fabric, while the cushion body and cover fabric are subjected to a pressurized environment, preferably by locating the forming apparatus, the cover fabric, and the cushion body in a pressure chamber maintained at relatively high pressure.
摘要:
An apparatus for releasably mounting a vehicle accessory to the floor attachments of a motor vehicle having a floor panel and removable seats. The apparatus includes an attachment mechanism adapted to releasably engage the floor attachments of the motor vehicle and a frame coupled to the attachment mechanism The frame is adapted for contacting the floor of the vehicle to steady the device and for mounting the vehicle accessory thereto.
摘要:
A vehicle seat assembly having a trim cover, a foam pad, and a fastening device, which includes a supporting member and a fastening member. The supporting member has an elongated shape and is contourable and bendable along a surface of the foam pad. The fastening member includes a first section fastened to said foam pad and a second section having a first surface engaged with a corresponding fastening member and a second surface opposite the first surface fastened to the supporting member.
摘要:
A process to form a body of thermoplastic polymeric fibers and improve the body's resistance to permanent deformation. The vehicle seat component of this invention is compressed twice at progressively greater pressures during the molding process in order to break and reform the bonds between the polymeric fibers.
摘要:
A ventilated vehicle seat includes an imperforate foam air plenum member located in a foam cushion top. The air plenum member is assembled from a molded box-like foam member and an integrally molded cover. The air plenum has an air port for application of positive or negative pressure. The cover has apertures for air to pass into or out of the air plenum member. One preferred embodiment of the air plenum member includes an integrally molded portion that is assembled into an air conduit for said air port. The cover can have various sizes that are larger than the box-like member and can have inner and outer surface conformations to suit various purposes.
