Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] [Purpose of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The present invention relates to a seat back cover for an automobile seat that is installed and used mainly in the rear seats of coupe-type automobiles. This relates to a vehicle whose back portion doubles as a tonneau cover that covers the rear luggage compartment.

(Prior Art) Generally, in coupe-type automobiles, the cargo space behind the rear seats is fully visible from inside and outside the vehicle, so the top surface of the cargo space is covered with a panel or sheet-like material called a tonneau cover. Therefore, efforts are being made to improve the design (hiding it in rags), prevent theft of luggage, and protect it from direct sunlight.

Here, the conventional tonneau cover is
These include a roll-up tonneau cover as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-68348, and a rear shelf as shown in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 60-110051.

The former type of roll-up type tonneau cover involves attaching a winding device to the back of the seatback cover of the rear seat of a car, winding it up into a roll to form a tonneau cover, and then pulling out the tonneau cover from the winding device. By locking its tip to the rear of the vehicle body, it is possible to cover the top surface of the luggage compartment.

The latter rear shelf has its upper end fixed to the upper side of the back of the seat back cover of the rear seat of the car, and its left and right side edges are removably fixed to the back of the seat back cover with hooks. By unhooking the hook and extending the rear shelf rearward, and locking the tip to the rear of the vehicle body, the upper surface of the luggage compartment can be covered.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) By the way, with the former type of roll-up tonneau cover, complicated equipment such as a roll-up device must be attached to the back of the seat bag, which not only increases costs, but also prevents the roll-up device from being installed even when not in use. The problem was that it was bulky and got in the way.

In addition, in the latter case, the rear shelf is provided over the back of the seat back, so it is the same as making the back of the seat back cover double-layered, which results in the problem of wasting the cover material and increasing costs. Ta.

The present invention was conceived in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a tonneau cover/seat back cover that does not get in the way or become bulky, is extremely simple, and can be made at low cost.

[Structure of the idea]

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the seat back cover that also serves as a tonneau cover of the present invention has the back side of the seat back cover body of an automobile seat hanging vertically so as to be openable and closable. In addition, a locking means is provided for holding the back of the tonneau cover in a state in which it is joined along the back surface of the seat bag, and in a state in which the tonneau cover is bent at the upper side and covers the rear cargo space of the seat bag. Features.

(Function) With the above structure, the seat back cover that also serves as a tonneau cover of the present invention has the back side of the seat back cover main body that can be opened and closed and also serves as a tonneau cover, and the back side can be folded at the upper side and attached to the rear of the seat back. By pulling it and holding it with the locking means, the rear luggage compartment can be easily covered. Further, when there is no need to cover the rear cargo space, the back part can be easily maintained in a state where it is joined along with the back surface of the seat bag as the original back part of the seat back cover main body. This way, it won't be bulky or get in the way. In addition, there is no need to provide a special roll-up type tonneau cover or rear shelf, and the number of parts is reduced, eliminating waste of skin material and reducing costs. Furthermore, the back of the seat back cover body, which has an overall bag-like shape, can be opened and closed.
The work of putting the seat back cover on the seat back (covering the skin) can be done very easily and quickly.

(Example) An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
In the figure, 1 indicates an automobile seat that is mainly installed in the rear seat of a coupe-type automobile 2, 3 is the seat cushion, and 4 is the seat cushion 3, which is tilted slightly backward. This is a seat bag that stands upright. This seat back 4 is composed of an internal frame (not shown), a pad 5 made of urethane foam or the like attached to this frame, and a seat back cover 6 which is a skin material covering this pad 5.

Here, the seat back cover 6 has a cover main body 7 which is sewn into a bag shape by cutting a skin material 7a such as leather or woven fabric and inserting piping 7b. However, the back part 7 of this cover body 7
c is provided so as to hang down from the upper side to the lower end so as to be openable and closable so as to double as a tonneau cover that covers the upper surface of the rear luggage compartment 8. The base of the upper side of the back 7c is sewn 10 to reinforcing material 9 provided vertically on the left and right edges of the back back of the cover body 7 to strengthen it so that it does not unravel, and is welded from there so that it can be easily bent. A crease 11 is made by folding. In addition, the back back portion 7c is used as a locking means for holding the back back portion 7c in a state where it is joined along with the back surface of the seat bag and in a tonneau cover state where it is bent at the upper end and covers the rear cargo space 8 of the seat bag.
Hook-and-loop fasteners 12 and 13 are attached at two locations near the top and bottom edges of the left and right edges of the inner surface of the cover body 7, respectively, and hook-and-loop fasteners 14 are attached at two locations on the left, right, top, and bottom of the back surface of the cover body 7 corresponding thereto. ，
15 are attached to each. Also car 2
There are hook and loop fasteners 1 on the left and right sides of the inside of the back panel 16.
7 are installed respectively. Note that the back portion 7 is attached to the hook-and-loop fastener 17 on the inner surface of the back panel 16.
In order to engage the surface fastener 13 at the lower end of c.
A fold 18 for folding is also provided at the bottom hem of the back portion 7c.
is formed.

With the above-mentioned configuration, the back back part 7c of the seat back cover main body 7 is vertically provided so as to be openable and closable so as to double as a tonneau cover. When the seat bag 4 is pulled rearward and the left and right surface fasteners 13 serving as locking means are engaged with the surface fasteners 17 on the left and right portions of the inner surface of the back panel 16 of the automobile 2, the back surface 7c
is held as a tonneau cover for easy access to the rear luggage compartment 8.
be able to cover.

Furthermore, when there is no need to cover the rear luggage compartment 8, the back part 7c can be joined to the back surface of the seat bag as the original back part of the seat back cover main body 7.
Mutual left, right, upper and lower surface fasteners 12, 14 and 1
3 and 15 are engaged, and the back part 7c is easily held in a joined state along the back surface of the seat bag, so that it does not become bulky or get in the way.

Such a seat back cover that also doubles as a tonneau cover 6
If so, there would be no need to provide a special tonneau cover or rear shelf such as the conventional roll-up type, and the number of parts would be reduced, there would be no wastage of skin material, and costs could be reduced.

Furthermore, although the seat back cover main body 7 has a bag-like shape as a whole, the back part 7c can be opened and closed, so that the process of covering the seat back (covering the cover) can be carried out very easily and quickly. become.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments; for example, a hook-and-loop fastener is provided as the locking means, but hooks or other locking means may be used in addition to this.

[Effect of idea]

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it is possible to easily cover the rear luggage compartment with the back of the seat back cover body without installing a special tonneau cover or rear shelf, and when it is not necessary, the rear cargo space can be covered easily. To provide a seat back cover which can be held as the back of the seat back cover, does not get in the way or take up bulk, is very simple and can be used as a tonneau cover at low cost.
