Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive seat technology, and in particular relates to a reinforcing structure for the edge of the opening in the seat cover. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing prevalence of automobiles in daily life, they have become an important means of transportation. Car seats are a crucial component and a common automotive part. In today's market where car seats are largely homogenized, refining the design and reducing costs are key areas for improvement. To achieve various functions of a car seat (rear seat unlocking, rear seatbelts, front / rear headrest adjustment, etc.), holes are typically made in the seat cover to connect the functional components to the frame. Decorative covers are then used to conceal imperfections between the functional components and the seat cover. Achieving cost-effective and refined car seats by optimizing the design and seamless transition between the various functional components, seat cover, foam, and decorative covers presents a new challenge, especially regarding the design of the opening edges of the seat cover.
[0003] Currently, in the more conventional designs for the exits of various seat functions (rear seat unlocking, rear seat belts, front / rear headrest adjustment, etc.), one design involves incorporating a decorative cover fixing component between the decorative cover and the function component, with the cover sandwiched between them. Another design sandwiches the cover between the decorative component and the foam, achieving fixation through compression of the foam and the decorative component. The first design itself is not problematic, requiring a decorative cover fixing component, but it necessitates sufficient space around the function component exit (generally, the area around the exit is narrow, making placement difficult). Adding this component increases the design, mold, and component costs associated with it. The second design simply uses foam to compress the decorative cover fixing component, resulting in weaker compression strength. While this saves on the development cost of the decorative cover fixing component, it is prone to causing the cover to stretch during compression, leading to wrinkles, exposed foam, and other undesirable aesthetic effects.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a structure that can ensure the aesthetics of the outlet structure of various seat functions (rear seat unlocking, rear seat belt, front / rear headrest adjustment, etc.) while also reducing product development costs. This has become a research direction for this design. Utility Model Content

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a reinforcing structure for the edge of the opening of a seat cover, including a decorative cover 1, a backrest unlocking handle 2 and a cover assembly 3; the cover assembly 3 includes a cover and a PE board 4, the PE board 4 being sewn onto the edge of the opening of the cover; the backrest unlocking handle 2 is installed on the backrest frame of the seat; the decorative cover 1 is engaged with the backrest unlocking handle 2.
[0028] In this embodiment, the conventional structure is the outlet of various functional components of the seat (rear seat unlocking, rear seat belt, front / rear headrest adjustment, etc.). In the conventional design, one design is to design a decorative cover fixing component between the decorative cover 1 and the functional component, and clamp the cover between the two; another design is to clamp the cover between the decorative component and the foam 5, and achieve fixation by squeezing the foam 5 and the decorative component.
[0029] In this embodiment, a PE board 4 is added to support the edge of the opening of the cover. Its structure is different from one of the traditional methods (the cover is sandwiched between the decorative part and the foam 5). When the decorative cover 1 matches the opening of the cover, a uniform amount of indentation can be formed. At the same time, the PE board 4 is sewn on the cover, which can prevent the matching relationship between the decorative cover 1 and the cover from changing due to force in all directions, thus preventing wrinkles. Its structure is different from another traditional method (an additional decorative cover fixing part is designed between the decorative cover 1 and the functional part). The PE board 4 is sewn on the cover instead of a decorative cover fixing part. The cost of a single part is only about 1 / 10 of that of a decorative cover fixing part, and the mold cost is also less than 1 / 10 of that of a decorative cover fixing part, thus saving costs.
[0030] In this embodiment, a PE plate 4 is added to support the edge of the opening of the cover, which is different from the traditional method. When the decorative cover 1 matches the opening of the cover, a uniform amount of indentation can be formed. At the same time, the PE plate 4 is sewn on the cover, which can prevent the matching relationship between the decorative cover 1 and the cover from changing due to force in all directions, thus preventing wrinkles. This not only makes the matching between the decorative cover 1 and the cover more beautiful, but also makes the matching area less prone to deformation and wrinkles under force. In addition, it also reduces costs compared with the design of the decorative cover fastener.
[0031] For further details, please refer to Figure 3 It also includes foam 5, which is mounted on the backrest frame of the seat with the backrest unlock handle 2.
[0032] Furthermore, after sewing the PE board 4 onto the faceplate assembly 3, it is wrapped around the outside of the foam 5.
[0033] Furthermore, after the decorative cover 1 engages with the backrest unlocking handle 2, the cover assembly 3 and the foam 5 are clamped onto the backrest frame of the seat.
[0034] In this embodiment, the backrest unlocking handle 2 is installed on the seat back frame, the foam 5 is assembled on the seat back frame (with the backrest unlocking handle 2 already installed), the PE board 4 is sewn onto the open cover assembly 3, the cover assembly 3 (with the PE board 4 already sewn) covers the outside of the foam 5, and the decorative cover 1 is snapped onto the backrest unlocking handle 2 to clamp the open cover assembly 3 and the foam 5 between the seat back frame.
[0035] Furthermore, the PE board 4 supports the decorative cover 1 and the opening of the faceplate assembly 3 to form a uniform indentation.
[0036] Furthermore, the PE board 4 is sewn to the edge of the opening of the cover to prevent the matching relationship between the decorative cover 1 and the cover from changing due to force in all directions, thus preventing wrinkles.
[0037] In this embodiment, a PE plate 4 is added to the edge of the opening of the cover for support. Its structure is different from the traditional method. When the decorative cover 1 matches the opening of the cover, a uniform amount of indentation can be formed. At the same time, the PE plate 4 is sewn on the cover to prevent the matching relationship between the decorative cover 1 and the cover from changing due to force in all directions, which would cause wrinkles. This not only makes the matching between the decorative cover 1 and the cover more beautiful, but also makes the matching area less prone to deformation and wrinkles under force.
[0038] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: In the conventional structure, the outlet of various functional components of the seat (rear seat unlocking, rear seat belt, front / rear headrest adjustment, etc.) is designed in a relatively conventional way. One design is to design a decorative cover fixing component between the decorative cover 1 and the functional component, and clamp the cover between the two; another design is to clamp the cover between the decorative component and the foam 5, and achieve fixation by squeezing the foam 5 and the decorative component.
[0039] In this embodiment, a PE board 4 is added to support the edge of the opening of the cover. Its structure is different from one of the traditional methods (the cover is sandwiched between the decorative part and the foam 5). When the decorative cover 1 matches the opening of the cover, a uniform amount of indentation can be formed. At the same time, the PE board 4 is sewn on the cover, which can prevent the matching relationship between the decorative cover 1 and the cover from changing due to force in all directions, thus preventing wrinkles. Its structure is different from another traditional method (an additional decorative cover fixing part is designed between the decorative cover 1 and the functional part). The PE board 4 is sewn on the cover instead of a decorative cover fixing part. The cost of a single part is only about 1 / 10 of that of a decorative cover fixing part, and the mold cost is also less than 1 / 10 of that of a decorative cover fixing part, thus saving costs.
[0040] In this embodiment, a PE plate 4 is added to support the edge of the opening of the cover, which is different from the traditional method. When the decorative cover 1 matches the opening of the cover, a uniform amount of indentation can be formed. At the same time, the PE plate 4 is sewn on the cover, which can prevent the matching relationship between the decorative cover 1 and the cover from changing due to force in all directions, thus preventing wrinkles. This not only makes the matching between the decorative cover 1 and the cover more beautiful, but also makes the matching area less prone to deformation and wrinkles under force. In addition, it also reduces costs compared with the design of the decorative cover fastener.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
