In a vehicle seat having an airbag module placed in the seatback thereof, the load that may be applied to the back side of the seatback is prevented from being applied to the airbag module. The vehicle seat (1, 300, 400) comprise a seatback frame (19) including a pair of side members (26, 301) extending vertically along either side thereof and providing a structural framework of a seatback, a plate member (20, 402) positioned behind the seatback frame and including an extension (32, 410) extending in an outboard direction from the side member located on an outboard side of the seatback frame, a mounting member connected to the outboard side member, and an airbag module (23) positioned on a front side of the extension and connected to the outboard side member via the mounting member, a clearance (S) being defined between the airbag module and the extension.

A seat pad manufacturing method is provided. The method includes disposing a sheet member inside a foaming mold for shaping a seat pad, then injecting a foaming resin material into the foaming mold and foaming a resin foamed body through mold clamping, and demolding the resin foamed body in a state in which the sheet member is buried in the resin foamed body. Both end parts of the sheet member in the right-left direction and both end parts of the sheet member in the extending direction are each temporarily fastened to the surface of the mold through a fastener. The foaming resin material is injected into a space between the mold surface and the sheet member. A central part of the sheet member deforms into a shape curved in a convex shape as the sheet member is pressed upward through expansion of the foaming resin material.

A vehicle seat including a pivot bracket, a back frame, a linear adjustment mechanism, a striker, and a latch. The back frame is pivotally connected to the pivot bracket and configured to pivot about a pivot axis. The back frame includes a first end spaced apart from the and disposed below the pivot axis. The latch is configured to selectively attach the linear adjustment mechanism to the first end of the back frame so that as the first linear adjustment mechanism translates, the back frame pivots from a first use position and a second use position, and selectively detach the linear adjustment mechanism from the first end of the back frame so that the back frame is pivotable to a non-use position.

A backboard assembly for a vehicular rear seat is disclosed. The backboard assembly includes an upper part and a lower part, which are made of a hard plastic material. The backboard assembly prevents the formation of a gap between the lower part and a luggage board, regardless of the operational mode of the rear seat. When a seat back is folded, the upper part, the lower part, and the luggage board are aligned in a horizontal direction, thereby allowing the space for passengers in the rear seat to be completely integrated with a luggage compartment.

A seat for a vehicle comprising a bearing structure, which is elastically deformable, is divided into a cushion and a backrest and is obtained by means of a foam having a net-like structure. The bearing structure of the cushion has: an outer zone, which extends along the entire periphery of the cushion and has a first bearing capacity; and an inner zone, which extends at the centre, is completely surrounded – on all sides – by the outer zone and has a second bearing capacity smaller than the first bearing capacity.

A back panel of a motor vehicle seat includes, on its visible external back side, a thermal layer.

A cushion support member 41 includes: a lower region 42 whose left-right full width is less than an interval between a pair of side frames 14 of a seat back frame 12; an upper region 45 located above the lower region 42 and having a left-right full width greater than the lower region 42. the upper region 45 is divided into a central region 46 including a central part in the left-right direction and provided with a predetermined left-right width, and outer regions 47 provided on outer sides with respect to the central region 46 in the left-right direction, and the central region 46 is arranged as a retracted region which is cut off to leave the outer regions 47 or is recessed to a side opposite to a cushion member with respect to the outer regions 47.

A seating assembly is provided that includes a seating assembly frame that includes a seatback frame, and a seat frame. The seating assembly further includes a seatback panel coupled to an upper portion of the seatback frame and movable between a stored position relative to the seatback frame and an extended position relative to the seatback frame, and an adjustment mechanism coupled to the seatback panel and the seating assembly frame and movable between a first position and a second position in response to an actuating force.

Provided is a tether anchor assembly for a vehicle including a seat frame including a support panel coupled to a back frame, the support panel including an anchor groove provided therein, and a mounting wire exposed to an outside through the anchor groove, and a tether cover configured to allow the mounting wire to be fitted and coupled to an inside thereof and to be exposed to the outside through the anchor groove when inserted into the anchor groove, and to be directly coupled to the support panel to fix a position of insertion thereof into the anchor groove.

Provided is a conveyance seat in which a duct connected to a fan can be compactly disposed, and the fan is provided in a pan-frame-type seat cushion. The vehicle seat includes a seat cushion (S2) and a blower (48) provided in the seat cushion (S2). The seat cushion (S2) is provided with a plate-shaped pan frame (42). The blower (48) is provided below the pan frame (42), a duct (49) is connected to the blower (48), and an opening (42a) through which the duct (49) extends is formed in the pan frame (42).
