[0003] [Patent Document 1] Registered Utility Model No. 2573991 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In the seat back described in Patent Document 1, the padding is not directly fixed to the frame material on the back side of the padding, but the skin is directly fixed to the frame material. Therefore, when an occupant tries to move the seat back or touches the seat back to take something out from the rear and applies an external force to the seat back, the padding may move from its designated position on the frame material. If the padding moves from its designated position on the frame material, there is no padding under the skin, and the occupant may feel the frame material through the skin, which may cause discomfort to the occupant.

[0005] In consideration of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle seat structure, a padding material molding method, and a vehicle seat manufacturing method that can reliably fix a padding material to a frame material. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The vehicle seat structure of the invention described in claim 1 includes a frame material forming a framework of the vehicle seat, a padding material formed from a foam material and arranged on the front side of the frame material, and a first backing material which is integrated with the padding material on the back side of the padding material and has a main body portion fixed to the padding material and an extension portion extending from the padding material and fixed to the frame material.

[0007] In the vehicle seat structure according to the invention described in claim 1, the first back surface material is integrated with the padding on the back surface side of the padding, and has a main body portion fixed to the padding and an extension portion extending from the padding and fixed to the frame material, thereby making it possible to reliably fix the padding to the frame material via the first back surface material.

[0008] The vehicle seat structure according to the invention recited in claim 2 is the vehicle seat structure recited in claim 1, in which the main body portion and the extension portion are formed of separate members.

[0009] According to the vehicle seat structure of the invention described in claim 2, the extension portion fixed to the frame material and the main body portion fixed to the pad material are made of separate members, which increases the freedom of selection of materials to be used for the extension portion. This allows the selection of an optimal material for fixing the extension portion to the frame material, and the pad material can be reliably fixed to the frame material via the extension portion. In addition, for example, when the extension portion and the frame material are fixed by inserting a clip through a clip hole drilled in the extension portion and the frame material, the position of the clip hole can be managed only by the extension portion. This makes it easier to manage the position of the clip hole compared to when the main body portion and the extension portion are integrally configured.

Therefore, the front side of the padding material is covered by the first skin fixed to the frame material, and the padding material is fixed to the frame material by the first skin. Therefore, the padding material is fixed to the frame material by the first back surface material, the second back surface material, and the first skin, and displacement of the padding material can be prevented doubly.

[0012] In the vehicle seat structure according to the invention of claim 3, the other end of the second back surface material is sewn together at the seam. Therefore, when the second back surface material is sewn to the inside of the second upholstery, the second back surface material can prevent the seam of the second upholstery from collapsing inward, resulting in a good appearance. When the second back surface material is sewn to the inside of the first upholstery, the seam can be folded down toward the frame material to allow the second upholstery to be assembled, and the second back surface material can prevent the seam of the first upholstery from collapsing inward, resulting in a good appearance.

[0014] According to the vehicle seat structure of the invention described in claim 4, there is a folded-back portion between the main body portion and the extension portion where the backing material is doubled, so that it is easier to manage the position of the fixing position when fixing the extension portion to the frame material compared to a case where there is no folded-back portion.

[0015] The vehicle seat structure according to the invention recited in claim 5 is the vehicle seat structure recited in claim 4, wherein the end of the folded-back portion is disposed at a position excluding a corner portion on the rear surface side of the pad material.

[0016] According to the vehicle seat structure of the invention described in claim 5, the end of the folded-back portion is arranged at a position other than the corners on the rear side of the padding material, so that the end of the folded-back portion can be arranged to avoid the corners where loads are concentrated.

[0017] The vehicle seat structure according to the invention described in claim 6 is a vehicle seat structure described in any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the extension portion extends from the pad material, folds back onto the back side of the frame material, and is fixed to the frame material.

[0018] According to the vehicle seat structure of the invention recited in claim 6, the extension portion extends from the padding material and is folded back to the back surface side of the frame material and fixed to the frame material, so that the frame material is surrounded by the first back surface material from the front surface side to the back surface side, thereby enabling the padding material to be more firmly fixed to the frame material via the first back surface material.

[0019] The vehicle seat structure according to the invention described in claim 7 is a vehicle seat structure described in any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein the frame material and the extension portion each have an insertion hole at a corresponding position through which a fixing member is inserted.

[0020] According to the vehicle seat structure of the invention described in claim 7, the frame material and the extension portion each have an insertion hole at a corresponding position through which a fixing member is inserted, so that the extension portion can be easily fixed to the frame material by inserting the fixing member into this insertion hole.

[0021] The padding material molding method of the invention described in claim 8 comprises placing the main body portion to be integrated with the padding material, and the major portion of the backing material having an extension portion extending from the main body portion, excluding the terminal portion of the extension portion, in an upper mold, and with an impregnation prevention member fixed to the surface of the extension portion, excluding the terminal portion, opposite the upper mold, clamping a lower mold which forms a space between the upper mold and the lower mold, and injecting resin into the space and foaming it, thereby forming a backing material-integrated padding material having an extension portion extending from the main body portion, which is integrated with the main body portion.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0042] First Embodiment Hereinafter, the seat back of a vehicle seat to which the vehicle seat structure according to the first embodiment is applied will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 5. Although gaps are shown between the members in each drawing, in reality there are no gaps, and the members are fixed in contact with each other. In addition, when the front-rear and up-down directions are shown in the following description, they are meant to indicate the front-rear and up-down directions of the vehicle, and the arrow FR shown in each drawing indicates the forward direction in the front-rear direction of the vehicle, and the arrow UP indicates the upward direction in the height direction of the vehicle.

[0043] 1 shows a seat back 12 that stands upright from the rear end of a seat cushion (not shown) on which an occupant sits in a vehicle seat 10 installed in the interior of a vehicle and supports the upper body of the occupant seated on the seat cushion. Note that in FIG. 1, only the upper part of the seat back 12 is shown, and the lower part of the seat back 12 is not shown, but the lower part of the seat back 12 has the same structure as the upper part.

[0044] (Seat back structure) As shown in FIG. 1, the seat back 12 includes a metal frame material 14 that forms the framework of the vehicle seat 10, a backing material-integrated pad material 20 that covers the frame material 14, and a trim cover 30 as an example of a skin that covers the front and back surfaces of the backing material-integrated pad material 20.

[0045] The backing material-integrated pad material 20 includes a pad material 22 formed of a foam material such as urethane (resin) and a first backing material (backing material) 40 formed of, for example, felt. The backing material-integrated pad material 20 is formed by foaming the resin forming the pad material 22 to integrally form the pad material 22 and the first backing material 40. The molding method of the backing material-integrated pad material 20 will be described in detail later. The backing material-integrated pad material 20 is disposed so that the pad material 22 is disposed on the side where the occupant sits (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the front side), i.e., the front side of the vehicle, and the first backing material 40 is disposed on the back side, i.e., the rear side of the vehicle.

[0046] The pad material 22 includes pad end portions 22A arranged at both ends in the vehicle vertical direction and having a substantially rectangular cross section, and a pad central portion 22B that connects the pad end portion 22A in the vehicle vertical direction to the pad end portion 22A (not shown) in the vehicle vertical direction at the vehicle front side and has a rectangular cross section. The pad material 22 has a first back surface material 40 fixed integrally to the back surface side of the pad central portion 22B and to the inner surfaces (surfaces on the pad central portion 22B side) of the pad end portions 22A at both ends in the vehicle vertical direction.

[0047] The first back surface material 40 comprises a main body portion 42 which is fixed integrally to the back surface side of the pad central portion 22B and to the inner surface of the pad end portion 22A, and an extension portion 44 which extends from the main body portion 42 which is fixed integrally to the pad material 22 and is folded back to the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14.

[0048] The frame material 14 and the extension 44 of the first back surface material 40 are provided with clip holes 14H, 44H as insertion holes through which clips 50 as fixing members are inserted, and the clip holes 14H and 44H are provided at corresponding positions when the extension 44 is folded back. As shown in Fig. 1, the extension 44 is fixed to the frame material 14 by inserting the clips 50 into the clip holes 14H and 44H. This allows the pad material 22 to be reliably fixed to the frame material 14 via the first back surface material 40.

[0049] The trim cover 30 is made of cloth, leather, synthetic leather, etc. The trim cover 30 includes a first trim cover 32 as a first skin covering the front side of the padding material 22 (front side of the backing material integrated padding material 20), and a second trim cover 34 as a second skin covering the back side of the backing material integrated padding material 20 (first backing material 40 side). The trim cover 30 has a sewing portion 36 where the first trim cover 32 and the second trim cover 34 are sewn together at the upper end and lower end of the back side of the backing material integrated padding material 20.

[0050] (Method of forming pad material with integrated backing material) 2 and 3, the backing material-integrated pad material 20 according to the first embodiment is molded by a molding device (not shown) equipped with a molding die 60. The molding die 60 includes an upper die 62 and a lower die 64.

[0051] 3, the upper mold 62 has an upper mold body 62A located on the upper side, and an upper mold center portion 62B formed smaller than the outer shape of the upper mold body 62A and protruding downward from the center of the upper mold body 62A. The lower mold 64 is formed in a box shape with an open upper side.

[0052] 2, first, the main part 40A of the first back surface material 40 excluding the terminal part 44A of the extension part 44 is disposed on the lower surface of the upper die 62. Specifically, the main part 40A is composed of an extended main body part 44B of the extension part 44 excluding the terminal part 44A, and the main body part 42. A magnet 52 is fixed to the upper surface of the terminal part 44A of the extension part 44 as a fixing member, and when the terminal part 44A is bent towards the upper die 62, the magnet 52 is magnetically attached to the upper die 62, whereby the first back surface material 40 is disposed on the upper die 62.

[0053] 3, in the first embodiment, a tape member 54 serving as an impregnation prevention member is fixed to the surface of the extended main body portion 44B on the side opposite to the upper mold 62. With the tape member 54 fixed, a lower mold 64 which forms a space S between itself and the upper mold 62 is clamped to the upper mold 62.

[0054] Next, as shown in Fig. 3, a foaming material such as urethane (resin) to become the padding material 22 is injected into the space S. After a predetermined time has passed and the injected foaming material is foamed, the padding material 22 is integrated with the first back surface material 40, and the back surface material-integrated padding material 20 is completed. As shown in Fig. 3, since the first back surface material 40 is a thin member compared to the upper mold 62 and the lower mold 64, the foaming material is foamed with the first back surface material 40 sandwiched between the upper mold 62 and the lower mold 64.

[0055] Here, the tape member 54 is interposed between the foamed foam material and the extended main body portion 44B in the space S formed between the upper mold 62 and the lower mold 64, so that the foam material is prevented from permeating into the extended main body portion 44B. That is, of the first back surface material 40, only the main body portion 42 excluding the terminal portion 44A and the extended main body portion 44B, i.e., the extension portion 44, is integrated with the padding material 22. Also, as shown in Fig. 3, the end portion of the main body portion 42 on the extended portion 44 side is folded along the peripheral surface of the upper mold center portion 62B of the upper mold 62.

[0056] Next, the magnet 52 is removed from the upper die 62, the molding die 60 is opened, and the backing material-integrated padding material 20 is removed from the lower die 64. In this manner, the backing material-integrated padding material 20 is molded.

[0057] (Seat back manufacturing method) First, as described above, the main body 42, which is a part of the first back surface material 40, is integrated with the pad material 22 formed of a foam material to form the back surface material-integrated pad material 20. As shown in Fig. 4, the main body 42 of the first back surface material 40 is integrated with the pad material 22. In Fig. 4, the main body 42 and the pad material 22 are shown separated from each other to make it easier to understand the extension 44 that is not integrated with the pad material 22, but they are actually integrated. As shown in Fig. 4, the extended main body 44B of the first back surface material 40 is not integrated with the pad material 22 because the tape member 54 prevents the foam material from permeating into it.

[0058] 5, the main body 42 of the back surface material integrated pad material 20 is placed on the front surface 14A side of the metal frame material 14 that forms the framework of the vehicle seat 10. Then, the extension portion 44 of the back surface material 40 extended from the main body portion 42 is folded back to the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14. The clip hole 44H formed in the folded back extension portion 44 is aligned with the clip hole 44H formed in the frame material 14, and the clip 50 is inserted through the clip hole 44H and the clip hole 44H to fix the extension portion 44 to the frame material 14. As a result, the pad material 22 is reliably fixed to the frame material 14 via the extension portion 44 of the first back surface material 40.

[0059] Next, the backing material integrated pad material 20 fixed to the frame material 14 is covered with the trim cover 30 as a surface skin. In this manner, the seat back 12 is manufactured. In addition, in FIG. 5, the tape member 54 is left in a state of being fixed to the extension main body portion 44B of the extension portion 44 when the seat back 12 is manufactured, but the tape member 54 may be removed before covering with the trim cover 30 (see FIG. 1).

[0060] (Action, effect) Next, the structure of the seat back 12 of the vehicle seat 10 to which the vehicle seat structure of the first embodiment is applied, the molding method of the back surface material integrated pad material 20, and the effects of the manufacturing method of the seat back 12 of the vehicle seat 10 will be described below.

[0061] In the structure of the seat back 12 according to the first embodiment, the first back surface material 40 is a back surface material that is integrated with the pad material 22 on the back surface side of the pad material 22, and has a main body portion 42 that is fixed to the pad material 22, and an extension portion 44 that extends from the pad material 22, folds back to the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14, and is fixed to the frame material 14. This allows the pad material 22 to be reliably fixed to the frame material 14 via the first back surface material 40.

[0062] Furthermore, in the structure of the seat back 12 according to the first embodiment, the padding material 22 does not come into direct contact with the frame material 14, but is fixed to the frame material 14 via the first back surface material 40, thereby preventing the generation of abnormal noise due to friction between the frame material 14 and the padding material 22, and damage to the padding material 22.

[0063] Furthermore, in the structure of the seat back 12 in accordance with the first embodiment, the frame material 14 and the extension portion 44 each have clip holes 14H, 44H at corresponding positions through which the clip 50 is inserted, so that the extension portion 44 can be easily fixed to the frame material 14 by inserting the clip 50 into the clip holes 14H, 44H.

[0064] In the structure of the seat back 12 according to the first embodiment, the extension 44 extends from the padding material 22 and is folded back to the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14 and fixed to the frame material 14, so that the frame material 14 is surrounded by the first back surface material 40 from the front surface 14A side to the back surface 14B side. This allows the padding material 22 to be more firmly fixed to the frame material 14 via the first back surface material 40.

[0065] In the molding method of the backing material-integrated pad material 20 according to the first embodiment, of the first backing material 40 having the main body 42 integrated with the pad material 22 and the extension 44 extended from the main body 42, the main part 40A excluding the terminal part 44A of the extension 44 is placed in the upper mold 62, and in a state where a tape member 54 as an impregnation prevention member is fixed to the surface of the extension 44 excluding the terminal part 44A opposite to the upper mold 62, the lower mold 64 forming a space S between the upper mold 62 is clamped, and a foaming material is injected into the space S to be foamed. As a result, the tape member 54 is interposed between the foamed foaming material in the space S formed between the upper mold 62 and the lower mold 64 and the extension 44 excluding the terminal part 44A, so that it is possible to prevent the foaming material from impregnating the extension 44 excluding the terminal part 44A.

[0066] Furthermore, in the molding method for the back surface material-integrated pad material 20 of the first embodiment, the terminal portion 44A of the extension portion 44 is bent along the upper die 62 and fixed to the upper die 62 by a magnet 52 serving as a fixing member, so that the first back surface material 40 can be easily fixed to the upper die 62 by fixing the terminal portion 44A to 62.

[0067] Furthermore, in the molding method for the backing material-integrated pad material 20 according to the first embodiment, the foaming material is foamed while the first backing material 40 is sandwiched between the upper mold 62 and the lower mold 64, so that the foaming material can flow uniformly in the space S easily, and poor foaming can be prevented.

[0068] In the manufacturing method of the seat back 12 according to the first embodiment, a main body 42 which is a part of the first back surface material 40 is integrated with a pad material 22 formed of a foam material to form a back surface material-integrated pad material 20, the main body 42 of the back surface material-integrated pad material 20 is disposed on the front surface side of a frame material 14 which forms the framework of a vehicle seat, and an extension 44 of the first back surface material 40 extended from the main body 42 is folded back to the back surface side of the frame material 14 and fixed to the frame material 14. As a result, the extension 44 of the first back surface material 40 is fixed to the frame material 14, so that the pad material 22 can be reliably fixed to the frame material 14 via the first back surface material 40.

[0069] <Modification> A modified example of the first embodiment will be described below with reference to Figures 6 and 7. Note that the same components as those in the first embodiment are indicated by the same reference numerals and the description will be omitted, and only the differences will be described in detail.

[0070] In the first embodiment, the tape member 54 is used as an impregnation prevention member when the backing material integrated pad material 20 is formed. In the modified example, however, a film member 54A is used instead of the tape member 54.

[0071] 6, a film member 54A serving as an impregnation prevention member is sewn to the extended main body portion 44B. In a modified example, with the film member 54A sewn, a lower mold 64 forming a space S between the upper mold 62 and the lower mold 64 is clamped to the upper mold 62 (see FIG. 3).

[0072] In the manufacturing method of the seat back 12 of the modified example, the main body 42, which is a part of the first back surface material 40, is integrated with the pad material 22 formed of a foam material to form the back surface material-integrated pad material 20. As shown in Fig. 6, the main body 42 of the first back surface material 40 is integrated with the pad material 22. In Fig. 6, the main body 42 and the pad material 22 are shown separated from each other to make it easier to understand the extension portion 44 that is not integrated with the pad material 22, but they are actually integrated. As shown in Fig. 6, the extended main body portion 44B of the first back surface material 40 is not integrated with the pad material 22 because the tape member 54 prevents the foam material from permeating into it.

[0073] Next, as shown in Fig. 7, the main body 42 of the back surface material integrated pad material 20 is placed on the front surface 14A side of the metal frame material 14 that forms the framework of the vehicle seat 10. Then, the extension 44 of the back surface material 40 extended from the main body 42 is folded back to the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14 with the film member 54A sewn thereto. The clip hole 44H formed in the folded back extension 44 is aligned with the clip hole 44H formed in the frame material 14, and the clip 50 is inserted through the clip hole 44H and the clip hole 44H to fix the extension 44 to the frame material 14. As a result, the pad material 22 is reliably fixed to the frame material 14 via the extension 44 of the first back surface material 40.

[0074] Next, the backing material integrated pad material 20 fixed to the frame material 14 is covered with the trim cover 30 as a surface skin. In this manner, the seat back 12 of the modified example is manufactured.

[0075] In the modified example, a film member 54A serving as an impregnation prevention member is interposed between the foamed material in the space S formed between the upper mold 62 and the lower mold 64 and the extension portion 44 excluding the terminal portion 44A, so that, similar to the first embodiment described above, it is possible to prevent the foamed material from impregnating the extension portion 44 excluding the terminal portion 44A.

[0076] <Second embodiment> Hereinafter, the seat back of the vehicle seat to which the vehicle seat structure according to the second embodiment is applied will be described with reference to Fig. 8. Although gaps are shown between the members in each drawing, there are no gaps in reality, and the members are fixed in contact with each other. In the second embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted, and only the differences will be described in detail.

[0077] In a seat back 12A of a vehicle seat 10A of the second embodiment, the structure of a first back surface material 70 of a back surface material-integrated pad material 20A is different from that of the first back surface material 40 of the back surface material-integrated pad material 20 of the first embodiment.

[0078] 8, the first back surface material 70 comprises a main body portion 72 fixed integrally to the padding material 22, a fixed portion 73 fixed to the main body portion 72 by sewing at an end of the main body portion 72, and an extension portion 74 extending from the fixed portion 73. That is, in the first back surface material 70, the main body portion 72 and the extension portion 74 are formed as separate parts.

[0079] The main body 72 is fixed integrally to the padding material 22 on the back surface side of the pad central portion 22B, the inner surface of the pad end portion 22A, and the back surface side of the pad end portion 22A. The extension portion 74 extends from a fixing portion 73 fixed to the main body 72 fixed integrally to the padding material 22, and extends to the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14. Note that in the first back surface material 70, the main body 72 and the extension portion 74 are integrated by the fixing portion 73, and the extension portion 74 becomes a back surface material folded back on the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14.

[0080] The frame material 14 and the extension 74 of the first back surface material 70 are provided with clip holes 14H, 74H as insertion holes through which clips 50 as fixing members are inserted, and the clip holes 14H and 74H are provided at corresponding positions when the extension 74 is folded back. As shown in Fig. 8, the extension 74 is fixed to the frame material 14 by inserting the clips 50 into the clip holes 14H and 74H. This allows the pad material 22 to be reliably fixed to the frame material 14 via the first back surface material 70.

[0081] (Action, effect) Next, the function and effect of the seat back 12A of the vehicle seat 10A to which the vehicle seat structure according to the second embodiment is applied will be described below.

[0082] In the structure of the seat back 12A according to the second embodiment, the extension 74 fixed to the frame material 14 and the main body 72 fixed to the pad material 22 are made of separate members, so that the freedom of selection of the material used for the extension 74 can be increased. This allows the optimum material for fixing the extension 74 to the frame material 14 to be selected, and the pad material 22 can be reliably fixed to the frame material 14 via the extension 74. In addition, when the extension 74 and the frame material 14 are fixed by the clip 50, the positions of the clip holes 14H and 74H can be managed only by the extension 74. This makes it easier to manage the positions of the clip holes 14H and 74H than when the main body 72 and the extension 74 are integrally configured.

[0083] <Third embodiment> Hereinafter, the seat back of the vehicle seat to which the vehicle seat structure according to the third embodiment is applied will be described with reference to Fig. 9. Although gaps are shown between the members in each drawing, there are no gaps in reality, and the members are fixed in contact with each other. In the third embodiment, the same components as those in the second embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted, and only the differences will be described in detail.

[0084] (Seat back structure) 9, the seat back 12B of the vehicle seat 10B of the third embodiment further includes a second back surface material 80 in addition to the configuration of the seat back 12A of the second embodiment. The second back surface material 80 is formed of a carpet, for example, and is disposed between the extension portion 74 of the first back surface material 70 and the second trim cover 34.

[0085] The second back surface material 80 has a clip hole 84H at one end 82, and a clip 50 is inserted into this clip hole 84H to fix the second back surface material 80 to the frame material 14 together with the extension 74. The second back surface material 80 is sewn together with the inner side of the second trim cover 34 at the other end 84 on the side of the sewing portion 36 where the first trim cover 32 and the second trim cover 34 are sewn together.

[0086] (Seat back manufacturing method) First, the main body 72, which is a part of the first back surface material 70, is integrated with the pad material 22 formed of a foam material to form the back surface material-integrated pad material 20A. As shown in Fig. 9, the main body 72 of the first back surface material 70 is integrated with the pad material 22, and the extension portion 74 of the first back surface material 70 is not integrated with the pad material 22.

[0087] 9, the main body 72 of the back surface material-integrated pad material 20A is placed on the front surface 14A side of the metal frame material 14 that forms the framework of the vehicle seat 10. Then, the extension portion 74 of the first back surface material 70 that extends from the fixing portion 73 fixed to the main body portion 72 is positioned on the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14.

[0088] The second back surface material 80 is placed between the extension 74 and the second trim cover 34, and a clip hole 84H formed in one end 82 of the second back surface material 80, a clip hole 74H formed in the extension 74, and a clip hole 14H formed in the frame material 14 are aligned, and a clip 50 is inserted through the clip hole 84H, the clip hole 74H, and the clip hole 14H, thereby fixing one end 82 of the second back surface material 80 and the extension 74 of the first back surface material 70 to the frame material 14.

[0089] Next, the back surface material integrated pad material 20A fixed to the frame material 14 is covered with the trim cover 30 as a surface skin. At this time, the other end 84 of the second back surface material 80 is sewn to the inside of the second trim cover 34 at the sewing portion 36 where the first trim cover 32 and the second trim cover 34 are sewn together. In this manner, the seat back 12B is manufactured. (Action, effect) Next, the function and effect of the seat back 12B of the vehicle seat 10B to which the vehicle seat structure according to the third embodiment is applied will be described below.

[0090] In the structure of the seat back 12A and the manufacturing method of the vehicle seat 10B according to the third embodiment, the second back surface material 80 is disposed between the extension portion 74 and the second trim cover 34, one end portion 82 of the second back surface material 80 is fixed to the frame material 14 together with the extension portion 74, and the other end portion 84 of the second back surface material 80 is sewn to the inside of the second trim cover 34 at the sewing portion 36 where the first trim cover 32 and the second trim cover 34 are sewn together.

[0091] As a result, the first trim cover 32 and the second trim cover 34 are fixed to the frame material 14 by the second back surface material 80. Therefore, the front surface side of the padding material 22 is covered by the first trim cover 32 fixed to the frame material 14, and the padding material 22 is fixed to the frame material 14 by the first trim cover 32. Therefore, the padding material 22 is fixed to the frame material 14 by the first back surface material 70, the second back surface material 80, and the first trim cover 32, and displacement of the padding material 22 can be doubly prevented.

[0092] In addition, the other end 84 of the second lining material 80 is sewn together at the sewn portion 36. At the sewn portion 36, the other end 84 of the second lining material 80 is sewn to the inside of the second trim cover 34. Therefore, the other end 84 of the second lining material 80 can prevent the sewn portion 36 of the second trim cover 34 from collapsing inward, and a good appearance can be achieved.

[0093] <Fourth embodiment> Hereinafter, the seat back of the vehicle seat to which the vehicle seat structure according to the fourth embodiment is applied will be described with reference to Fig. 10.

[0096] The main body 92 is fixed integrally to the padding material 22 on the back surface side of the pad central portion 22B, the inner surface of the pad end portion 22A, and the back surface side of the pad end portion 22A. The folded portion 93 extends from the main body 92 so as to be folded back near the end of the padding material 22 to form a double back surface material, and is fixed to the main body 92. The extension portion 94 extends from the folded portion 93 to the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14. The extension portion 94 of the first back surface material 90 becomes a back surface material folded back on the back surface 14B side of the frame material 14.

[0097] (Action, effect) Next, the function and effect of the seat back 12C of the vehicle seat 10C to which the vehicle seat structure according to the fourth embodiment is applied will be described below.

[0098] The structure of the seat back 12C in the fourth embodiment has a fold-back portion 93 between the main body portion 92 and the extension portion 94, whereby the back surface material is doubled. This makes it easier to control the position of the fixing position when fixing the extension portion 94 to the frame material 14 compared to when there is no fold-back portion 93.
