A method of manufacturing a headrest including a stay, a skin material, a cushion material, and a dynamic damper is provided. The method includes arranging the skin material in a molding die, arranging the stay, to which an air bag is attached in such a manner as to cover the dynamic damper, inside the skin material, and injecting a foamable synthetic resin raw material into the skin material to foam-mold the injected foamable synthetic resin raw material integrally with the stay.

A method of forming a headrest assembly includes providing a first mold that encloses a first cavity in a closed condition. A support is positioned in the first cavity. A first material is blow molded into the first cavity and around a portion of the support to form a core part. The core part and support are removed from the first mold. A second mold encloses a second cavity in a closed condition. The core part and the support are placed into the second mold in an open condition. A fluid is injected into the core part through the support. The second mold is converted to the closed condition. A second material is injection molded into the second cavity and around the core part to form an outer shell around the core part. A fluid is withdrawn from the core part through the support.

In a skin integral molded article which is formed by filling the inside of a skin which is formed into a bag shape with a foamed body and molding the foamed body integrally with the skin, an opening through which a foaming raw material is supplied into the skin is formed in the skin, in one side skin and other side skin which are formed with the opening being interposed, the one-side skin is bent into inside the opening, the other-side skin is provided with a part disposed ahead of a part which is bent into inside the opening and is formed to be pliable, and the part which is disposed ahead of the other-side skin part and is formed to be pliable is formed in contact with a leading end part of the one-side skin part which is bent into the opening.

A vehicle seat includes a headrest, a seat back to which the headrest is attached, and a seat cushion connected to the seat back. The headrest includes pillar frames attached to the seat back, a core member that includes a pouring passage penetrating from one end to the other end, a cover that covers the core member and a part of the pillar frames, and a cushion member that is formed in a gap between the outer surface of the core member and the inner surface of the cover and inside the pouring passage. The pouring passage extends in a first direction from the one end of the core member to reach a predetermined position, extends in a second direction from the predetermined position to reach the other end, and includes a bent part at the predetermined position.

There is provided a skin foam-in-place foamed article comprising a pad (15) and a bag-like outer material (20) covering the pad (15). The outer material (20) has a top layer (21) and a liner layer (22) made of a foamed resin. The liner layer (22) has a closed cell structure. A pad-side skin layer (27a) having a density higher than that of a bulk layer (26) is provided on the liner layer (22), on a side of the pad (15). A corona treatment is applied to the pad-side skin layer (27a).

A headrest assembly for a vehicle seat, that is height-adjustable along an adjustment direction. The headrest assembly includes a pin adapted to be fixed to a seat backrest and extending along the adjustment direction, an adjustment plate integrally secured to the one pin, and a supporting structure adapted to support a user's head, mounted so as to be adjustable in translation on the adjustment plate along the adjustment direction. The pin is covered by a covering portion. The covering portion and the adjustment plate are made of plastic material overmolded on the pin.

A seat for vehicles including a seat cushion, a seat back, and a head rest has the following arrangement to ensure that a surface member can be relatively easily but positively removed from a urethane pad if a foam molding defect is found in the urethane pad in integral molding of the urethane pad and the surface member. In the seat for vehicles, any one of the seat cushion, seat back, and head rest has a configuration where a surface of the urethane pad is covered with the surface member. The urethane pad and the surface member are partially bonded together by integral molding.

A method of forming a headrest assembly includes providing a first mold that encloses a first cavity in a closed condition. A support is positioned in the first cavity. A first material is blow molded into the first cavity and around a portion of the support to form a core part. The core part and support are removed from the first mold. A second mold encloses a second cavity in a closed condition. The core part and the support are placed into the second mold in an open condition. A fluid is injected into the core part through the support. The second mold is converted to the closed condition. A second material is injection molded into the second cavity and around the core part to form an outer shell around the core part. A fluid is withdrawn from the core part through the support.

A headrest includes: (a) a headrest frame, (b) a speaker unit supported by the headrest frame and having a speaker box, a speaker attached to the speaker box, and a megaphone-shaped tube attached to the speaker box, (c) a cushion material, (d) a skin material having an opening, sewed into a pouch shape, and covering the headrest frame, the speaker unit, and the cushion material, and (e) a ring-shaped member securing the entire opening-side end portion of the skin material sandwiched between the ring-shaped member and the megaphone-shaped tube.

A component of a vehicle seat and method for the production thereof includes a cover having a plurality of panels with each panel including a peripheral mating surface. The plurality of panels are mated together at the peripheral mating surfaces to form a cavity and foam is injected into the cavity of the cover.
