Provided is a hook-and-loop fastener member capable of removably joining different sheet members, wherein exposed portions of the hook-and-loop fastener member are always of loop type and the hook-and-loop fastener member is therefore soft and friendly on the skin and clothing fibers. A hook-and-loop fastener member is capable of removably joining different sheet members and includes: a first tape body provided at one of principal surfaces with a plurality of loop bodies; a second tape body provided at one of principal surfaces with a plurality of loop bodies; and a third tape body provided at both surfaces with a plurality of hook bodies, the different sheet members being capable of being joined by: disposing the third tape body to be sandwiched between the first tape body and the second tape body; engaging the plurality of loop bodies of the first tape body with the plurality of hook bodies on one of both the surfaces of the third tape body; and engaging the plurality of loop bodies of the second tape body with the plurality of hook bodies on the other of both the surfaces of the third tape body.

A skin material fastening structure for removably fastening an edge of a first skin material covering a part of molded foam and an edge of a second skin material covering another part of the molded foam in a fastening groove formed in the molded foam. The fastening groove includes first and second sides facing each other, and a bottom extending between lower ends of the first and second sides. A hook and loop fastener is fixed on the first and second sides. Each of the edges of the first and second skin materials has loops capable of engaging with the hooks.

A seating arrangement for a vehicle includes abuse cushion and a top cushion. The top cushion is situated on the base cushion and divides the base cushion into a seat cushion section and a coupling cushion section. The seat cushion section is situated in front of the top cushion in the seat direction. The coupling cushion section is situated in back of the top cushion in the seat direction and includes a cover. The seating arrangement includes a coupling device which is configured to cooperate with a child seat having at least one coupling arm for coupling with the coupling device arranged on the seat cushion section. The seating arrangement further includes a guiding device fastened to the cover of the coupling cushion section for the coupling arm.

One aspect of the present invention provides a fastening strap for fixing a seat covering to a seat cushion of a car. The fastening strap includes a plurality of fastening sections connected in series and each of the fastening section comprises: a substrate having a plurality of hooks formed on a surface thereof; at least one magnetic member disposed on the surface of the substrate; a protective member disposed along a periphery of the substrate to encircle the plurality of hooks; and a flexible connecting portion integrally extending from one end of the substrate in a longitudinal direction of the fastening section to connect to an adjacent fastening section in a spaced apart manner.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a seat that makes it possible to easily connect the end of a surface cover when assembling the surface cover and to achieve a secure connection. To this end, a seat (1) is provided with inclined piles (70, 80) on the end of the surface cover (4) and at a location that faces the end of the surface cover (4) on a cushion member (2) that forms a seat section, the inclined pile (80) of the cushion member (2) is inclined in a direction that is the opposite of the direction in which a load resulting from a seated person occurs, and the inclined pile (70) of the end of the surface cover (4) is inclined in the direction in which the load resulting from a seated person occurs.

The present invention provides a seat which is unlikely to cause wrinkles or slack in a surface cover thereof, makes surface cover attachment and detachment simple, and is also capable of withstanding long-term use. To this end, a second fastening part 50 for attachably/detachably connecting a cushion material 2 and a surface cover 4 to one another is formed as a zipper in a seat 1.

A seatback cover attachment system is disclosed. The attachment system may include a substrate configured to reversibly couple to a portion of a seatback frame. The substrate may include one or more surfaces that define a channel. The channel may be configured to receive a portion of the seatback frame. The attachment system may include a seatback cover sub-system. The seatback cover sub-system may include a dress cover. The seatback cover sub-system may include a side panel configured to couple to a portion of the substrate. The side panel may be configured to couple to one or more portions of the dress cover to form the seatback cover sub-system.

A ventilated seat includes a cushion pad, including a plurality of air distribution holes therethrough, and having a hook-loop fastener affixed thereto; a seat bottom including a main bottom cushion; a seat back operatively engaging the seat bottom and including a main back cushion; wherein one of the main bottom cushion and the main back cushion is comprised of a closed cell foam, includes a recess that is shaped to receive and orient the cushion pad therein, a ventilation passage for directing airflow from a climate control system to the recess, and a hook-loop fastener molded into the closed cell foam in the recess; and wherein the cushion pad is secured in the recess by the hook-loop fastener of the cushion pad operatively engaging the hook-loop fastener in the recess.

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.

A seating system for a vehicle and a method for producing a seating system include a seat part having a cushion and a support material disposed on a surface of the cushion. An elongated member is attached to one side of the support material to create a channel in the opposite side, and a trim material is positioned over the support material to create a concavity in the trim material along the channel.
