[0034] The following are specific embodiments of this application, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the technical solutions of this application. However, this application is not limited to these embodiments.

[0035] refer to Figures 1-4 This application provides a connection structure for a seat cover, including a seat cover 200 fitted onto a seat 100 and a zipper 300. The seat cover 200 includes a first cover 210 and a second cover 220, which are separately disposed. The edge of the first cover 210 is bent inward to form a first folded edge 211, and the edge of the second cover 220 is bent inward to form a second folded edge 221. The zipper 300 includes a first chain 310, a second chain 320, and a zipper pull 330. The first chain 310 is connected to the first folded edge 211, the second chain 320 is connected to the second folded edge 221, and the zipper pull 330 is slidably disposed on the first chain 310 and the second chain 320 to engage or disengage the first chain 310 and the second chain 320.

[0036] The seat cover connection structure provided in this application embodiment designs the seat cover 200 as a separate first cover 210 and second cover 220, and then connects or separates the first cover 210 and the second cover 220 by means of a zipper 300, which makes the installation and removal of the seat cover 200 more convenient, and also makes it easier to clean and replace the seat cover 200.

[0037] By bending the first cover 210 inward to form the first fold 211, bending the second cover 220 inward to form the second fold 221, and then connecting the first chain 310 of the zipper 300 to the first fold 211 and the second zipper strip of the zipper 300 to the second fold 221, this design makes the zipper 300 more concealed and does not affect the overall aesthetics of the seat cover 200.

[0038] The separate first cover 210 and second cover 220 provide more possibilities for the design and partial customization of the seat cover 200. The first cover 210 and the second cover 220 can be designed and manufactured separately according to different seat 100 styles, usage needs, or aesthetic preferences, such as by selecting different materials, colors, patterns, etc.

[0039] The seat 100 includes a seat cushion 110, a backrest 120, and a headrest 130. The seat cover 200 is fitted onto the seat cushion 110 and / or the backrest 120 and / or the headrest 130, so that the seat cover 200 can be used on different parts of the seat 100, thereby enhancing the applicability of the seat cover 200.

[0040] The first cover 210 is located in vulnerable areas of the seat 100, such as the top of the seat cushion 110, the area of ​​the backrest 120 facing the user, and the area of ​​the headrest 130 facing the user.

[0041] In practical applications, users can choose to place the seat cover 200 on the seat cushion 110, backrest 120, or headrest 130 of the seat 100 as needed. When it is necessary to replace or clean the first cover 210, the user only needs to pull open the zipper 300 through the pull head 330 to easily separate the first cover 210 and the second cover 220, and then remove the first cover 210 for cleaning or replacement.

[0042] Specifically, the first faceplate 210 includes a first faceplate body 212 and a first folded edge 211 connected to the edge of the first faceplate body 212. The first folded edge 211 is fixed to the inner sidewall of the first faceplate body 212. The first chain 310 includes a first chain belt 311 and a plurality of first chain teeth 312 disposed on the first chain belt 311. The plurality of first chain teeth 312 are located at the connection position between the first faceplate body 212 and the first folded edge 211. The second faceplate 220 includes a second faceplate body 222 and a second folded edge 221 connected to the edge of the second faceplate body 222. The second folded edge 221 is fixed to the inner sidewall of the second faceplate body 222. The second chain 320 includes a second chain belt 321 and a plurality of second chain teeth 322 disposed on the second chain belt 321. The plurality of second chain teeth 322 are located at the connection position between the second faceplate body 222 and the second folded edge 221.

[0043] Multiple first teeth 312 are located at the connection position between the first cover body 212 and the first folded edge 211, and multiple second teeth 322 are located at the connection position between the second cover body 222 and the second folded edge 221. This allows the first teeth 312 to fit more tightly against the connection between the first cover body 212 and the first folded edge 211, and the second teeth 322 to fit more tightly against the connection between the second cover body 222 and the second folded edge 221, when the zipper 300 connects the first cover 210 and the second cover 220, thereby further enhancing the strength of the connection.

[0044] Since the first folded edge 211 and the second folded edge 221 are respectively fixed to the inner sidewalls of the first cover body 212 and the second cover body 222, when the seat cover 200 is viewed from the outside, the first folded edge 211 and the second folded edge 221 are not exposed. The first zipper tooth 312 is located at the connection position between the first cover body 212 and the first folded edge 211, and the second zipper tooth 322 is located at the connection position between the second cover body 222 and the second folded edge 221. This ensures that when the zipper 300 is closed, the first zipper tooth 312 and the second zipper tooth 322 are not directly exposed on the surface of the seat cover 200. This not only further enhances the aesthetics of the appearance but also reduces discomfort such as scratches from the first zipper tooth 312 and the second zipper tooth 322 to the passenger's skin, improving the comfort of using the seat 100.

[0045] Optionally, the first folded edge 211 is sewn onto the first faceplate body 212, and the second folded edge 221 is sewn onto the second faceplate body 222, so that the positions of the first folded edge 211 and the second folded edge 221 are fixed.

[0046] The zipper pull 330 includes a zipper pull body 331 and a pull tab mounting portion 332 disposed on the zipper pull body 331. The pull tab mounting portion 332 is located inside the seat cover 200. The pull tab mounting portion 332 is used to install the pull tab for passengers to pull the zipper pull body 331. By placing the pull tab mounting portion 332 inside the seat cover 200, the pull tab mounting portion 332 and the pull tab are not exposed during use, thus improving the aesthetics of the seat cover 200.

[0047] The pull tab mounting part 332 is located inside the seat cover 200, which can effectively reduce the accidental contact of the pull tab by passengers or external objects. At the same time, it also reduces the discomfort or scratches caused to passengers by the pull tab.

[0048] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7The connecting structure of the seat cover also includes foam 400 and buckles 500. Buckles 500 are fixed to foam 400. A snap-fit ​​member 600 is provided on the inner side wall of the first cover 210, and the snap-fit ​​member 600 snaps into the buckle 500. By providing the snap-fit ​​member 600 on the first cover 210 and the buckle 500 on the foam 400 of the seat 100, the seat cover 200 can be firmly fixed to the seat 100, preventing the seat cover 200 from shifting or falling off during use.

[0049] The seat cover 200 connects the first cover 210 and the second cover 220 via a zipper 300. On this basis, foam 400 and buckle 500 are added to form a double connection structure, making the connection between the seat cover 200 and the seat 100 more secure.

[0050] In one embodiment, the buckle 500 includes a first engaging portion 510 and a second engaging portion 520. One end of the first engaging portion 510 is connected to one end of the second engaging portion 520, and the other ends of the first engaging portion 510 and the second engaging portion 520 are spaced apart to form a first slot 530. The engaging member 600 is engaged in the first slot 530. The buckle 500, with the first engaging portion 510 and the second engaging portion 520 connected at one end and the other end spaced apart to form the first slot 530, provides good structural stability. When the engaging member 600 is engaged in the first slot 530, the first engaging portion 510 and the second engaging portion 520 can effectively constrain the engaging member 600 from both sides, preventing the engaging member 600 from easily dislodging from the first slot 530 when subjected to external force. This ensures that the buckle 500 can firmly hold the engaging member 600, guaranteeing the stability of the seat cover 200 installation.

[0051] Locking blocks 511 are provided on the side walls of the first engaging portion 510 and the second engaging portion 520 that are close to each other. The engaging member 600 is provided with a locking groove 610, and the locking blocks 511 are locked in the locking groove 610. Based on the initial engaging of the engaging member 600 by the first engaging groove 530 formed by the first engaging portion 510 and the second engaging portion 520, the locking blocks 511 are locked in the locking groove 610 to form a double locking mechanism, which makes the engaging member 600 more firmly fixed in the first engaging groove 530, and greatly reduces the risk of the engaging member 600 falling out of the first engaging groove 530 due to external forces (such as passenger squeezing, shaking, etc.).

[0052] The buckle 500 further includes a third engaging portion 540, which is disposed on the side wall of the first engaging portion 510 opposite to the second engaging portion 520. The third engaging portion 540 and the first engaging portion 510 form a second slot 541. A fixing rod 410 is disposed within the foam 400 and passes through the second slot 541. Based on the first slot 530 formed by the first engaging portion 510 and the second engaging portion 520 for engaging the buckle 600, the third engaging portion 540 and the first engaging portion 510 form the second slot 541, and the fixing rod 410 within the foam 400 passes through the second slot 541, forming a double-slot fixing structure. This design greatly enhances the connection strength between the buckle 500 and the foam 400, allowing the buckle 500 to be firmly fixed to the foam 400, preventing the buckle 500 from shifting or falling off during use.

[0053] In actual use, the third snap-fit ​​portion 540 is elastic. One end of the third snap-fit ​​portion 540 is connected to the first snap-fit ​​portion 510, and the other end of the third snap-fit ​​portion 540 is in movable contact with the first snap-fit ​​portion 510. When the first cover 210 is removed, the third snap-fit ​​portion 540 is pressed, allowing the fixing rod 410 to disengage from the second slot 541. At this time, the buckle 500 and the snap-fit ​​member 600 can be removed together with the first cover 210.

[0054] Specifically, the snap-fit ​​component 600 includes a connected fixing base 620 and a snap-fit ​​strip 630. A locking groove 610 is provided on the snap-fit ​​strip 630. The width of the snap-fit ​​strip 630 gradually decreases from the end near the fixing base 620 to the end away from the fixing base 620. This gradual decrease in width from the end near the fixing base 620 to the end away from the fixing base 620 makes the snap-fit ​​strip 630 easier to snap into the buckle 500. When installing the seat cover 200, the operator only needs to align the snap-fit ​​strip 630 with the first locking groove 530 of the buckle 500 and apply a certain amount of pressure. The snap-fit ​​strip 630 can then smoothly slide into the first locking groove 530 of the buckle 500 and lock the locking block 511 in the locking groove 610, greatly reducing the difficulty of the snap-fit ​​operation and improving the installation efficiency.

[0055] In one embodiment, a fleece is provided on one of the foam 400 and the first seat cover 210, and a felt is provided on the other, with the fleece and felt connected. The connection between the fleece and the felt (Velcro) is extremely simple; when installing the seat cover 200, simply align the part with the felt with the fleece and press gently to achieve the connection. The fleece and felt have good adhesion, providing sufficient bonding force to ensure that the seat cover 200 will not easily loosen or fall off during use, thus enhancing the stability of the seat cover 200.

[0056] refer to Figure 8 The connecting structure of the seat cover also includes side panels 700, which are located on both sides of the foam 400. The side panels 700 have third slots 710, and the second cover 220 has a molding strip that engages with the third slots 710. By providing the third slots 710 on the side panels 700 and engaging the molding strip on the second cover 220 within them, additional fixing points are formed. This multi-point fixing method greatly enhances the connection strength between the second cover 220 and the seat 100, allowing the seat cover 200 to fit more tightly and securely onto the seat 100.

[0057] The seat cover connection structure provided in this embodiment connects the separately configured first cover 210 and second cover 220 via a zipper 300, making the installation and removal of the seat cover 200 more convenient, and also facilitating cleaning and replacement. Furthermore, the design of the buckle 500 and the snap-fit ​​600 ensures the seat cover 200 is securely fixed to the seat 100, preventing displacement or detachment during use. The seat cover 200 is further secured to the seat 100 through the connection between the fleece and felt, enhancing its stability.
