る。Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of integrally foaming an armrest with a container for accommodating small articles (for example, beverage containers). 2. Description of the Related Art Some armrests for automobile seats incorporate a container at the front side of the upper surface of the armrest.
In this armrest, a container with a flange is inserted into a trim cover sewn in a bag shape so that the opening is exposed, and a foaming liquid for forming a pad is injected into the trim cover, and the pad is trimmed to the trim cover and the container. Some are foamed integrally. In order to prevent the foaming liquid for forming the pad from leaking from the flange portion of the container to the outside during pad formation, various means for preventing leakage of the foaming liquid are provided on the outer periphery of the container. [0004] The above leakage prevention means is disclosed, for example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-46 filed by the present applicant.
As disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 922, a locking groove with a locking piece is extended inside a flange of a container, and a rigid resin plate sewn to a trim cover is engaged in the locking groove. It is a means to stop. [0005] Therefore, this not only complicates the structure of the container, but also requires that the resin plate of the trim cover be manually engaged with the engaging groove of the container, resulting in extremely poor workability. . In particular, at the corner of the body,
Since the resin plate is unlikely to bend along the corners, the trim cover is not easily attached to the container. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a simple structure, a trim cover that can be easily and reliably hermetically attached to a container, and that a foaming liquid for pad formation can be foamed without leaking outside. And According to the present invention, there is provided a method for integrally foaming an armrest with a container according to the present invention, wherein a container with a flange is inserted into a trim cover sewn in a bag shape. Then, in an armrest which is formed by injecting a foaming liquid for pad molding into the trim cover, an annular elastic material is fixed along a hole edge of a through hole for inserting the container of the trim cover, and the hole edge is fixed. After being locked to the outer peripheral surface of the container below the inner surface of the flange of the container by the elasticity of the elastic material, a foaming liquid for pad formation is injected into the trim cover, and the pad is foamed integrally with the container and the trim cover. It is characterized by becoming. With the above arrangement, the container can be attached to the trim cover simply by inserting the container into the through hole of the trim cover, and a foaming liquid for forming a pad is injected into the trim cover. Thereby, the opening edge of the through hole of the trim cover can be brought into close contact with the inner surface of the flange of the container due to the foaming pressure of the foaming liquid, so that the foaming liquid does not leak outside. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an armrest with a container formed by the method according to the present invention, which is rotatably attached to a seat or a vehicle body by a hinge pin (41) integrated with a frame. In the figure, (1) shows a trim cover sewn in a bag shape and fitted with a body (3) having a flange (30). The trim cover (1) is made of a conventionally well-known material which does not allow the foaming liquid for pad formation to leak to the outside, and as shown in FIG. A through hole (a) for inserting a container having the same inner diameter is opened. A slightly small annular elastic material (2) is sewn to the hole edge (10) of the through hole (a) of the trim cover (1) with respect to the substantially hole edge (10). I have. The elastic material (2) uses a soft rubber band, a hard rubber or the like and has an annular shape, and the elasticity causes the hole edge (10) of the trim cover (1) to be attached to the outer peripheral surface of the container (3). It is formed so as to be in close contact. The container (3) has a flange (30) at the periphery of the opening as shown in FIG. 3, and is formed of a hard synthetic resin. Next, a method of forming the armrest will be described. First, a trim cover (1) is sewn in a bag shape.
The edge (1) of the trim cover (1) in the through hole (1)
Elastic material (2) is sewn along 0). After the frame (4) is inserted into the trim cover (1) through the through hole (1) of the trim cover (1), the container (3) is inserted into the through hole (1). Then
As shown in FIG. 4, the rim (10) of the trim cover (1)
Due to the elasticity of the elastic material (2).
Adhere to 1). Next, a foaming liquid for pad formation is injected into the trim cover (1) from an injection port provided at an appropriate position of the trim cover (1). Then, by the foaming pressure of the foaming liquid, the rim (10) of the trim cover (1) is pressed against the inner surface of the flange (30) of the container (1). Therefore, leakage of the foaming liquid from the outer periphery of the container (1) can be completely prevented. As shown in FIG. 2, the pad (5) is foamed integrally with the trim cover (1) and the container (3). You. According to the present invention, the edge of the through hole in the trim cover can be brought into close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the container by the elasticity of the elastic material, and the outside of the foaming liquid for pad molding injected into the trim cover can be obtained. Can be prevented. Therefore, the work of attaching the trim cover to the container is easy, and the workability can be improved. Further, the conventional general container can be used as it is, and only the elastic material is fixed to the trim cover. Therefore, the structure is simplified.
