A seat cushion includes a cushion rear portion forming a rear portion of the seating surface, a cushion front portion forming a front portion of the seating surface and being configured to approach and separate from the cushion rear portion in a front-rear direction by a cushion length variable mechanism, a cushion cover covering the cushion front portion and the cushion rear portion, a retraction member disposed over a cover back surface of the cushion cover to a first member, and a push-in member provided on a second member, and configured to push the retraction member by the cushion front portion approaching the cushion rear portion, thereby retracting the cushion cover into a gap between the cushion front portion and the cushion rear portion with the retraction member.

A seat includes a cushion comprising a foam body and a trim cover disposed thereon, the trim cover having a forward portion at a front of the cushion and at least one elastic band attached to the forward portion; and a movable cushion length adjuster having an extended position and a retracted position, the movable length adjuster comprising a body with an occupant surface on a first side, and features on a second side, opposite to the first side. The at least one elastic band is routed on the features, and in the retracted position, the movable cushion length adjuster at least partially covers a portion of the cushion, and in the extended position, the length adjuster is spaced apart from the portion such that the at least one elastic band tensions the trim cover by pulling on the forward portion.

The present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing a seat cushion comprising: providing a cushion comprising a 3D entanglement of continuous thermoplastic fibers, arranged irregularly or randomly forming loops heat-sealed together and hot-pressing of the 3D entanglement of fibers into one or more local 3D entanglement areas so as to obtain one or more densified, stiffened local areas of the cushion, the local area(s) being configured to serve as a fastening area. The present disclosure also relates to a cushion obtained according to the manufacturing method, and a seat comprising such a cushion and a cap attached to the densified, stiffened local area(s).

A trim assembly is provided with a first trim member having a first finished surface and a second surface opposite thereto, a second trim member in contact with the second surface of the first trim member and attached to the first trim member via a first join, and a third trim member in contact with the second trim member and attached to the second trim member via a second join, the second join unaligned with the first join. The third trim member extends outwardly from the second trim member to a distal end having a first retainer. An assembly with a seat member and a trim assembly, and a seat are provided. In various non-limiting examples, the trim assembly may provide the desired shape of the seat, maintain durability and appearance, prevent looseness, and allow for use of a common seat member with trim assemblies of various appearances.

A seat for use with a vehicle is provided. The seat includes a base, a cushioning material coupled to the base, an outer cover positioned over the base and the cushioning material, the outer cover including at least one accessory portion comprising at least one strap coupled to a seam of the outer cover and a securement component coupling the at least one strap to the outer cover.

A system and method for producing a vehicle seating system includes a frame structure and a cushion positioned in the frame structure. A suspension mat is positioned along a back side of the cushion, and a securing arrangement extends across a width of the cushion such that the suspension mat is positioned between the securing arrangement and the back side of the cushion. The securing arrangement further extends into the cushion and attaches to the anchor which may inhibit dislocation of the cushion from the suspension mat.

In a cushion skin, left and right side surface skin front portions are fixed to a cushion frame of the seat cushion. The left and right side surface skin rear portions are respectively connected to the left and right side surface skin front portions, and each have a lower extending portion extending downward of the rear portion of the cushion pad. The connecting portion is disposed at the lower side of the rear portion of the cushion pad, and connects the distal end portions of each lower extending portion of the left and right side surface skin rear portions in the seat left-right direction. In each lower extending portion, a front side in the seat front-rear direction expands wider outward in the seat left-right direction than a rear side.
