Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-20894

  However, since the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1 includes a plurality of S springs and a plurality of coil springs on the back side of the pad, the structure is complicated, the number of parts is large, and the assembly work is complicated. turn into. For this reason, there existed a problem that cost was high. In addition, the coil spring has a problem that the thickness is increased because the axis is arranged in the thickness direction.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle seat that can be simplified and thinned.

  In order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 has a flexible plate member (for example, the seat cushion plate 26 in the embodiment) that receives body pressure, and the plate member has a frame portion (for example, implementation). Frame portion 93) in the form, and a center extending from the inner peripheral edge portion on one side of the frame portion toward the inner peripheral edge portion on the opposite side so as to be surrounded by the frame portion to the vicinity of the inner peripheral edge portion on the opposite side And a plurality of tongue pieces (for example, tongue pieces 72 and 74 in the embodiment) protruding toward the center plate portion on the inner peripheral edge portion of the frame portion. It is characterized by being made.

  The invention according to claim 2 is the invention according to claim 1, wherein the central plate portion is supported by a seat frame (for example, the seat cushion frame 25 in the embodiment) via an elastic member (for example, the spring 84 in the embodiment). It is characterized by being.

  The invention according to claim 3 is the invention according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the plate member is disposed to face the lower surface (for example, the back surface 27b in the embodiment) of the seat cushion pad (for example, the seat cushion pad 27 in the embodiment). In addition, the center plate portion extends rearward from the front end portion of the frame portion, and the tongue pieces are formed on inner peripheral edge portions on both the left and right sides of the frame portion.

  The invention according to claim 4 is characterized in that, in the invention according to any one of claims 1 to 3, the protruding length of the tongue piece is shorter than the extension length of the central plate portion.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, a flexible plate member is provided, and a plurality of tongue pieces projecting inward are formed on the inner peripheral edge of the frame portion of the plate member. The body pressure can be received by bending the frame plate member including the plurality of tongue pieces. At this time, since each tongue piece individually follows and follows the shape and position of the occupant seated and the body pressure of the occupant, good fit and holding performance can be obtained. In addition, the central plate portion of the plate member has a shape that extends from the inner edge portion on one side of the frame portion toward the inner edge portion on the opposite side so as to be surrounded by this frame portion. The extended distal end side can be largely bent, and a good fit and holding performance can be obtained by arranging the extended distal end side on the side receiving a large body pressure on the central side. A frame having a plurality of tongue pieces as described above, and a central plate having a shape extending from the inner edge on one side of the frame toward the inner edge on the opposite side so as to be surrounded by the frame. Since a plate member having a portion is used, simplification and thickness reduction can be achieved as compared with the case of using a plurality of S springs and a plurality of coil springs having axes arranged in the thickness direction. In addition, since a plate member having a plurality of tongue pieces is used, the characteristics can be easily changed by adjusting the material and thickness of the plate member, the number, position, width, interval, length, and the like of the tongue pieces. be able to. Furthermore, since the central plate portion has a shape extending from the inner edge portion on one side of the frame portion toward the inner edge portion on the opposite side so as to be surrounded by the frame portion, the frame portion And the central plate part can be integrally formed, and the number of parts and the cost can be reduced.

  According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the central plate portion is supported by the seat frame via the elastic member, the central plate portion largely deflects the large body pressure input to the central side, and the elastic member. Can be reliably received by deformation.

  According to the invention of claim 3, when the plate member is provided on the lower side of the seat cushion pad, the central plate portion of the plate member extends rearward from the front end portion of the frame portion. The shape of the collar portion having a larger sinking amount than that of the leg portion is followed by the center plate portion being largely bent at the extending tip side supporting the collar portion. In addition, since the tongue pieces are formed on the inner edges of the left and right sides of the frame, each tongue piece flexes and follows the shape of the seat occupant mainly on the base side of the leg. become. Therefore, a good fit and holding performance can be obtained.

  According to the invention which concerns on Claim 4, since the protrusion length of the tongue piece is made shorter than the extension length of a center board part, the bending amount of a tongue piece becomes smaller than the bending amount of a center board part. For this reason, if a center board part is applied to the part which supports a passenger | crew's buttocks, it can be changed into the shape which fits a buttocks, and a favorable fitting feeling and holding | maintenance performance are obtained.

The net seat 28 is bonded to the seat cushion pad 27, while the seat cushion pad 27 is not bonded to the seat cushion plate 26.

  Further, the net sheet 28 is formed in a crease shape at an intermediate predetermined position, and the tip side thereof is heated and compression-molded by a mold, so that an intermediate locking portion 98 having a relatively large thickness is formed and the intermediate engagement portion 98 is formed. It is hardened so that the thickness inside the stop part 98 becomes thinner than this. The intermediate locking portion 98 is locked to the constricted portion 96 of the locking groove 94 by being fitted to the locking space 95 of the locking groove 94 of the seat cushion pad 27. As a result, the net seat 28 is shaped along the surface 27a of the seat cushion pad 27 without floating.

  The seat cushion 20 has an exposed outer surface, i.e., a design surface, on the upper side of the net seat 28, and an exposed outer surface, i.e., a design surface, on the lower side, with the seat cushion plate 26 having an open middle portion. As shown in FIG. 11, the seat cushion pad 27 is held at a small thickness so that a gap can be secured between the seat cushion pad 27 and the vehicle body floor to improve the foot seat occupant's ability to put in the seat. The air permeability is improved and the structure is less prone to stuffiness.

  Here, the concave portions 47 and 48 of the leg portions 43 and 44 of the seat cushion frame 25 have a vertical gap between the support frame 52 of the seat cushion frame 25 and the seat cushion plate 26, and as a result, As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the seat cushion 20 is formed with a through-hole 99 penetrating in the left-right direction below the seat cushion pad 27. Therefore, if a tray is provided under the seat of the vehicle seat 11, the tray can be accessed from the side and the usability is excellent. Further, when applied to a center walk-through specification vehicle, a long object can be stored under the seat in a state of extending in the vehicle width direction. If the driver's seat has the same structure, it can store longer objects. In addition, since a long object can be inserted under the seat in the vehicle width direction, it can be stored immediately after opening the door, which is convenient for storing an umbrella in the rain.

  In the seat cushion 20 as described above, when the occupant sits down, the seat cushion pad 27 is elastically deformed via the net seat 28 to generate a reaction force, and when the seat cushion pad 27 is pushed, The front plate portion 64 is elastically deformed while rotating the mounting portion 76 relative to the support frame 52 to generate a reaction force so that the central plate portion 67 of the seat cushion plate 26 lowers the rear portion below the occupant's center of gravity. While elastically deforming itself, the spring 84 is elastically deformed to generate a reaction force, and both side plate portions 65 and 66 of the seat cushion plate 26 are elastically deformed and reacted while the mounting portions 77 and 78 are rotated with respect to the support frame 52. Force is generated, and the tongue pieces 72 and 74 are also elastically deformed so as to lower the tip side and generate a reaction force. Sufficient cushion stroke obtained optimal body pressure distribution with resulting occupant can be reliably held in a stable posture.

  Further, when the occupant moves in the left-right direction during cornering of the vehicle, for example, the side plate portion 65 on the side where the weight moves moves more elastically while rotating the mounting portion 77 more with respect to the support frame 52. Thus, a larger reaction force is generated, the tongue piece 72 of the side plate portion 65 is also elastically deformed to generate a larger reaction force, and the central plate portion 67 is also elastically deformed so as to be twisted and moves in weight. Since the larger reaction force is generated by elastically deforming the spring 84 on the side, the occupant can be reliably held in a stable posture.

  Of the above-described material and thickness of the seat cushion plate 26, the number, position, width, interval and length of the tongue pieces 72 and 74, the width and length of the central plate portion 67, and the elastic force of the spring 84, etc. The characteristics of the seat cushion 20 can be changed by adjusting an appropriate one. Further, the characteristics can also be changed by selectively making the plurality of attachment portions 76, 77, 78 rotatable and non-rotatable.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the vehicle seat 11 of the present embodiment is applied to the passenger seat of the vehicle has been described as an example. However, the vehicle seat 11 can of course be applied to a vehicle seat 11 other than the passenger seat. For example, when applied to the driver's seat, the reclining mechanism 186 and the side airbag module 190 are changed on the opposite side in the left-right direction.

  According to the vehicle seat 11 of the present embodiment described above, in the seat cushion 20, the frame portion 93 of the flexible seat cushion plate 26 is opposed to the outer peripheral edge side of the back surface 27b of the seat cushion pad 27. In addition, a plurality of tongue pieces 72 and 74 projecting inwardly are formed on the inner peripheral edge of the frame portion 93, so that an input is made via the outer peripheral edge side of the seat cushion pad 27, that is, the bank side. The body pressure of the occupant can be received by bending the frame portion 93 including the plurality of tongue pieces 72 and 74. At this time, each of the tongue pieces 72 and 74 formed on the inner peripheral edge portions on the left and right sides of the frame portion 93 individually flexes and follows the shape mainly on the base side of the leg portion of the seated occupant. Therefore, a good fit and holding performance can be obtained.

  Further, the central plate portion 67 disposed opposite to the central side of the back surface 27b of the seat cushion pad 27 is changed from the inner peripheral portion on one side of the frame portion 93 to the inner peripheral portion on the opposite side so as to be surrounded by the frame portion 93. Because it has a shape that extends toward the near side, it is possible to bend greatly at the extended tip side, and the shape of the buttock is large compared to the leg of the seated occupant On the other hand, the center plate portion 67 follows by being largely bent on the extending tip side supporting the collar portion, and as a result, good fit and holding performance can be obtained.

  The frame portion 93 having the plurality of tongue pieces 72 and 74 as described above, and the vicinity in front of the frame portion 93 from the inner peripheral portion on one side to the inner peripheral portion on the opposite side so as to be surrounded by the frame portion 93 Since the seat cushion plate 26 having the central plate portion 67 extending to the center is used, the seat cushion plate 26 is simplified and thinned as compared with the case of using a plurality of S springs and a plurality of coil springs having axes arranged in the thickness direction. Can be achieved. Further, since the seat cushion plate 26 having a plurality of tongue pieces 72 and 74 is used, the material and thickness of the seat cushion plate 26 and the number, position, width, interval, length, and the like of the tongue pieces 72 and 74 are adjusted. Thus, the characteristics can be easily changed.

  Furthermore, the center plate portion 67 has a shape extending from the inner peripheral edge portion on one side of the frame portion 93 to the near side toward the opposite inner peripheral edge portion so as to be surrounded by the frame portion 93. Therefore, the frame portion 93 and the central plate portion 67 can be integrally formed, and the number of parts and the cost can be reduced.

  Further, since the central plate portion 67 is supported by the seat cushion frame 25 via the spring 84, the central plate portion 67 generates a large body pressure input via the central side of the seat cushion pad 27, that is, the seat surface side. It can be reliably received by being greatly bent and the spring 84 being deformed.

  Furthermore, since the protruding lengths of the tongue pieces 72 and 74 are shorter than the extending length of the central plate portion 67, the bending amount of the tongue pieces 72 and 74 is smaller than the bending amount of the central plate portion 67. Therefore, by applying the central plate portion 67 to the portion that supports the occupant's buttocks as described above, the center plate portion 67 can be deformed into a shape that fits the buttocks, and a good fit and holding performance can be obtained.
