Skirt device for vehicular seat

The present invention relates to a skirt device for a vehicle seat. The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a skirt device, which is installed to surround the lower part of a seat from the rear surface thereof and thus covers a component or a unit at the lower part of the seat, thereby improving the exterior appearance of the seat. To achieve the purpose described above, the present invention provides a skirt device for a vehicle seat, which is disposed to extend downward from a seatback so as to cover the underside of a seat including the rear side of a seat cushion, the skirt device comprising: a skirt coupled to the lower end of the back board of the seatback and installed to surround the rear side of the seat cushion; and a skirt cover fixed to the underside of the seat such that the skirt cover is positioned at the lower side of the skirt so as to always cover the lower part of the skirt.

Mold-in fasteners

A mold in fastener product includes a flexible substrate, such as a resin film or textile sheet, and a resin layer covering only part of one side of the flexible substrate and leaving a region of the one side of the flexible substrate exposed, the resin layer carrying multiple touch fastener elements each having a resin stem extending integrally from the layer away from the flexible substrate to an engageable head. A flexible ferromagnetic strip is bonded to the flexible substrate and at least partially bounds a bounded portion of the flexible substrate containing at least some of the touch fastener elements and at least a part of the exposed region. The product is preferably wide, such as to cover a wide concave region of a foam seat cushion.
