Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an automobile seat with side supports, and is intended to reduce costs and improve appearance.

Some automobile seats are provided with side supports 2 on both sides of a seat back 1, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, which is a cross-sectional view of a part of the seat viewed from above, the side support 2 has a mounting angle that can be adjusted by rotating the support 3 around the rotary support section 4. There is. That is, it is narrowed inward (indicated by the two-dot chain line in the figure) or expanded outward (indicated by the solid line in the figure) to match the physique of the occupant. The back panel 5 is provided along the back of the seat back 1 and the back of the side supports 2. And back panel 5 is
When the side support 2 is expanding outward, it is pushed and expanded outward by the side support 2, and when the side support 2 is narrowing inward, it returns to its original shape, so regardless of the adjustment of the side support 2. The back panel 5 is adapted to be in contact with the side support 2.

By the way, in this prior art, the back panel 5
Because it is pushed by the side support 2 and returns to its original position, it has to be made of an expensive material that has both elasticity and strength, leading to an increase in cost. Furthermore, if the back panel 5 is repeatedly widened and narrowed, the elasticity of the back panel 5 will weaken and it will not be able to return to its original position completely, and when the side supports 2 are narrowed inward, a gap will be created between the side supports 2 and the back panel 5, resulting in an unsightly appearance. It was my fault.

In view of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention aims to provide an automobile seat with side support that is low cost and has a good appearance. The configuration of the present invention that achieves such an object includes side supports whose mounting angles can be adjusted by support supports arranged on both sides of the seat bag and rotatably supported with respect to the seat bag, and which support the seat back and side supports. An automobile seat having a back panel attached along the back side of the seat frame includes a wire fixed to the seat frame so as to be close to and extend along the side of the back panel, and the wire is inserted between the wire and the back panel. The tip edge of the outer skin of the side support is connected to the rinsing force.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. Note that parts that are the same as those in the prior art are given the same numbers and redundant explanations will be omitted. As shown in FIG. 3, a rigid wire 6 that is long in the vertical direction is provided within the side support 2. The wire 6 is fixed to the seat frame 8, which is a fixed portion, via a connecting member 7 so as to be close to and extend along the side 5a of the back panel 5. Further, the support 3 is provided with a vertically long cover fixing wire 10 via a connecting member 9, and the end of the outer skin 2a, which is the cover of the side support 2, is attached to the cover fixing wire 10. ing. That is, the leading edge of the skin 2a is inserted between the wire 6 and the side 5a of the back panel 5 and attached to the cover fixing wire 10.

In this embodiment, when the reinforcement hose 3 is turned inward, the connecting member 9, the cover fixing wire 10, and the tip edge of the skin 2a also turn inward together, and the side support 2 narrows inward (as shown by the two-dot chain line in the figure). ). Furthermore, when the rinsing force 3 is turned outward, the connecting member 9, the cover fixing wire 10, and the tip edge of the skin 2a are also turned outward together, and the side support 2
spreads outward (indicated by the solid line in the figure). In this way, the mounting angle of the side support 2 is adjusted.

At this time, even if the mounting angle of the side supports 2 is adjusted, the rigid wires 6 are still attached to the seat frame 8.
Since it is fixed to and does not move, the skin 2a of the side support 2 and the side 5a of the back panel 5 are always in contact with each other, and there is no gap between the skin 2a and the side 5a. Eventually, the side support 2 changes from the state shown by the solid line to the state shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG.
Since the parts near the are hardly displaced, there is no gap. Also, side support 2
When adjusting the mounting angle of the skin 2a, the rinsing force 3 and the tip edge of the skin 2a move together.
No unreasonable tensile force is generated on a. Therefore, the skin 2a will not be damaged, and the skin 2a will not get caught when adjusting the mounting angle.
There is no reaction force acting on the machine, and the operability is good.
Furthermore, even if the mounting angle of the side support 2 is adjusted, the portion of the side support 2 near the wire 6, that is, the portion near the side 5a, is not displaced, so no pushing force is applied from the side support 2 to the back panel 5. Therefore, the back panel 5 does not need to be opened or closed, does not require elasticity, and can be formed from inexpensive materials.

As specifically explained above in conjunction with the embodiments, according to the present invention, the back panel can be made of inexpensive materials, reducing costs, and the appearance is improved since there is no gap between the back panel and the side supports. Furthermore, even if the mounting angle of the side support is adjusted, unreasonable tension is not applied to the skin surface, and damage to the skin surface and deterioration of operability can be avoided.
