Vehicle seat having an overlayer unbound to an underlayer that is bound to a seat pad

摘要

A vehicle seat includes an outer skin layer, which covers the seat cushion or seat back. The seat cushion or seat back is integrally formed with a fastener disposed on a main surface portion thereof. The main surface portion has an underlayer disposed under an overlayer, which includes an outerskin surface, freely disposed over the underlayer. The overlayer and the underlayer are joined only along common edge portions thereof while the surface areas thereof are not attached. The lower side of the second underlayer is affixed to the fastener disposed on the seat cushion or seat back. Each of the skin layer and the overlayer and underlayer may be of two or three ply construction including a backing material and a wadding layer. This construction allows high assembly efficiency with a reduced number of parts. Further, disassembly of seat components for recycling is also simplified while enhanced appearance of the installed seat cover is easily accomplished.
