Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a recliner cover attached to a rear side surface of a seat so as to cover a reclining mechanism of an automobile seat.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, an automobile seat is provided with a reclining mechanism for supporting a seat back at a rear end of a seat cushion so that the seat back can be tilted forward and backward, so that the seat back can be tilted according to the physique and preference of a seated person. There is. The recliner cover is attached to the rear side surface of the seat so as to cover the reclining mechanism.

Conventionally, this recliner cover 10 is provided with a notch portion 14 at a predetermined position of the peripheral edge portion 13 as shown in FIG. 6, and a boss portion 15 for fixing a screw is provided inside the notch portion 14 in a synthetic resin. 1 having a transparent cover body 11 and a through hole 17a at a position corresponding to the boss portion 15
The cover member 12 is made of rubber and is provided with 7. The protrusion member 17 is fixed to the boss portion 15 with a screw 16 so that the cover member 12 is attached to the notch portion 14 of the cover body 11.

The recliner cover 10 is
As shown in FIG. 7, when the seat 20 is attached to the rear side surface of the seat 20 so as to cover the reclining mechanism (not shown), the notch 14 is positioned in front of the arm 23 of the reclining mechanism, and the arm 23 tilts. And a cover member 12 hides the gap for this tilting, thereby improving the appearance of the sheet 20 and preventing accidents such as adhesion of grease and finger sticking caused by the inclusion of clothes. To do.

In FIG. 7, reference numeral 24 indicates an operating lever of the reclining mechanism.

[0006]

The conventional recliner cover described above requires a cover body made of synthetic resin, a rubber cover member, and a plurality of screws for attaching the cover member to the cover body. Due to the large number of parts, inventory management was troublesome. In addition, the assembly has to be fixed at a plurality of places with screws, which is cumbersome and cannot be dealt with promptly when necessary, and there is a problem that the assembly work cost increases the cost of the finished product. .

An object of the present invention is to solve the problems that the conventional recliner cover has.

[0008]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention according to claim 1 of the present invention is formed in the shape of a lid with a peripheral edge portion curved inward, and the rear end of the seat cushion is formed. In a recliner cover for an automobile seat that is mounted so as to cover a reclining mechanism that supports a seat back so that it can be tilted back and forth, a notch is formed in a peripheral portion facing the arm of the reclining mechanism, and the notch is formed. It is characterized in that a covering member made of a resin having flexibility so as to close the portion is formed continuously and integrally with the peripheral portion.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the configuration of the first aspect of the invention, the covering member forms a through hole in a continuous peripheral portion, and the base end side of the covering member penetrates the through hole to form a peripheral edge. It is characterized by being integrally joined to the front and back of the part.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a recliner cover according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a rear view of its completed state, and FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG.

As shown in the figure, the recliner cover 1 of the present invention is formed in the shape of a lid in which the peripheral edge portion 2 is curved inward, and the cutout portion 3 is formed at a predetermined portion of the peripheral edge portion 2 like the conventional cover body. Is formed. The notch 3 is tilted when the recliner cover 1 is attached to the seat 20 as shown in FIG.
It is provided so as to face to.

Here, in the recliner cover 1 of the present invention, a plurality of through holes 4 are provided in the peripheral portion 2 of the portion where the notch 3 is formed, and the elastomeric resin or chloride is provided from the front and back so as to close the through holes 4. A flexible resin such as vinyl is adhered, and the covering member 5 is formed integrally with the peripheral portion 2 so as to cover the notch 3 with the resin. (See FIG. 4.) The cover member 5 is formed of this resin by forming a material substantially similar to that of the conventional cover body with synthetic resin or metal in advance, and then using a means such as insert molding.

The recliner cover 1 thus formed, as shown in FIG. 5, is a reclining mechanism (not shown) for supporting the seat back 22 at the rear end of the seat cushion 21 so that the seat back 22 can be tilted forward and backward, just like the conventional one. The armor 23 of the reclining mechanism, which is attached to the rear side surface of the seat 20 so as to cover the seat 20 and holds the seatback 22 along the notch 3, tilts when the armor 23 of the reclining mechanism has a flexibility. The gap between the notch 3 and the sheet 20 is closed without disturbing the tilting, the appearance of the sheet 20 is improved, and accidents such as adhesion of grease or finger sticking caused by the inclusion of clothes or the like are prevented.

In the above description, the peripheral edge portion 2 having the cutout portion 3 is provided.
A through hole 4 is provided in the base member, and the base end side 5a of the covering member 5 formed of a flexible resin such as an elastomer is joined from the front and back through the through hole 4, and the joining is made more reliable. Although the above example is shown, the covering member 5 may be formed so as to block the notch 3 continuously with the end edge 3a of the notch 3, and the structure of the joint portion is limited to the illustrated example. Not a thing.

The recliner cover for an automobile seat according to the present invention is characterized in that the covering member 5 provided in the cutout portion 3 is integrally formed of a flexible resin such as an elastomer. With the same configuration, the shape of the cover itself may be any shape and is not limited to the illustrated example.

[0017]

As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the covering member is integrally formed continuously in the notch of the recliner cover. No need to worry about management and assembly, and can respond quickly when needed. Further, since the number of parts is reduced and the assembling work process requiring labor cost is omitted, the cost can be significantly reduced and the cost can be reduced.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the covering member continuously formed in the cutout portion is formed by penetrating through the through hole formed in the peripheral edge portion from the front and back of the peripheral edge portion in which the cutout portion is formed. By integrally joining to the peripheral portion, the covering member can be joined more reliably, and in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 1, durability, reliability, and quality can be further improved. is there.
