Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a seat pad for vehicles and, more particularly, to a seat pad for vehicles comprising a top part and a bottom part which are formed separately from each other and are united with each other.
  • a seat pad for vehicles is usually made of a flexible polyurethane foam or a semi-rigid polyurethane foam.
  • a seat pad for vehicles having a double-layer structure composed of an outer layer part and a lower layer part has been proposed in which the outer layer part to be directly touched by an occupant is made of a flexible material and the lower layer part is made of a material having relatively high degree of hardness.
  • Such a seat pad for vehicles is usually manufactured by pouring two kinds of liquid urethane compounds having different degrees of hardness into a mold at the same time or with a time difference.
  • the configurations and materials of the seating section, an under-thigh section, and side bulging sections of the seat pad, and the backrest of the vehicle seat are completely different in accordance with the type or grade of vehicles.
  • the frame on which the seat pad is mounted mass production by virtue of commonization has been implemented for the purpose of cost reduction. Accordingly, the same frame can be adopted to different types and grades of vehicles.
  • the outer layer side is changed in accordance with the type or grade of vehicle, the configuration of the bottom side to be in contact with the frame is nowadays the same even for different types and grades of vehicles.
  • a seat sensor is sometimes installed to a vehicle seat.
  • a film-like sensor is attached to a seat surface of a seat cushion pad of a front-passenger seat.
  • Occupant may feel the sensor as a foreign object when seated.
  • the seat pad for vehicles allows the commonization of the seat sensor among various seat pads for vehicles of different types.
  • the seat pad for vehicle according to the first aspect of the present invention is a seat pad comprising a top part and a bottom part which are formed separately from each other and then connected to each other, wherein the bottom part is formed into the same configuration allowing commonization among different types of vehicles.
  • the top part and the bottom part are formed separately from each other and then connected to each other in this seat pad for vehicles, there is no limitation on the combination between the material of the top part and the material of the bottom part. Since the material of the top part and the material of the bottom part can be selected separately from a board range of materials, the seat pad can be tailored to the wide-ranging needs on performance by employing various combinations with regard to the hardness and other properties. Since the bottom part is formed into the same configuration allowing commonization not only among different grades of vehicles of the same type but also among different types of vehicles, the cost can be reduced because of the commonization of the bottom part.
  • the seat pad according to the second aspect of the present invention is a seat pad for vehicles comprising a top part and a bottom part which are formed separately from each other and then connected to each other, and comprising a sheet-like seat sensor which is disposed between the matching faces of the bottom part and the top part.
  • the seat sensor is located inside the seat pad for vehicles which has no effect on design so that a mark (e.g. holes or mark-off line) indicating the position of the seat sensor can be formed.
  • a mark e.g. holes or mark-off line
  • the number of man-hour for post-bonding operation can be reduced.
  • the seat sensor Since the seat sensor is disposed deep inside the seat pad, an occupant can be prevented from feeling discomfort due to a seat sensor. In addition, the seat sensor is hardly subjected to concentrated load, thereby reducing the malfunction of the seat sensor.
  • the seat sensor Since the seat sensor is not affected by design of outer surface, the seat sensor can be commonized among various types of vehicles.
