There is provided a seatback frame integrally formed by resin molding, the seatback frame including: an upper side frame section that includes a headrest retaining portion that extends along a seat width direction; a pair of side frame sections that extend along a seat up-down direction; and a reinforcing section that is formed in the upper side frame section by forming plural recessed portions, at least from the headrest retaining portion to the seat width direction end portion, wherein at least one or more of the recessed portions is open toward the seat rear side so as to provide a first wall face at the seat front side; and another one or more of the recessed portions is open toward the seat front side so as to provide a second wall face at the seat rear side.

Seatback frame and resin for employing in a seatback frame

There is provided a vehicle seat including a seatback frame including: a first base member formed of a thin plate member made of resin; a second base member formed of a thin plate member made of resin and disposed facing the first base member; a pass-through portion that is formed to at least one of the first base member or the second base member, and that enables insertion of an injection nozzle for injecting a foaming liquid for a foamed body; and a core section that is configured by the foamed body, that is disposed between the first base member and the second base member, and that is adhered to the first base member and the second base member.

Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat includes: a seatback frame of a resin-formed seatback, including a plate-shaped back face panel portion; a headrest; a seatback pad; a lattice-shaped spring member formed from wire arranged in a lattice shape, attached to the seatback frame at a front side of the back face panel portion, and that resiliently supports the seatback pad from a rear side, with a space formed between the back face panel portion and the lattice-shaped spring member; and a load transmission section provided at one of the lattice-shaped spring member or the back face panel portion and disposed inside the space so as to project out toward the side of the other one of the lattice-shaped spring member or the back face panel portion, such that a gap is formed between the load transmission section and the other one of the lattice-shaped spring member or the back face panel portion.

There is provided a vehicle seat including: a seatback frame that includes a plate-shaped back face panel portion; a headrest; a seatback pad that is provided at a front face side of the seatback frame, with a space formed between the seatback pad and the back face panel portion; a back spring that is formed from wire and includes left and right side portions extending in an up-down direction of the seatback, at both seat width direction sides inside the space, and includes a lower portion coupling together lower end portions of the left and right side portions in the seat width direction, wherein the left and right side portions are supported so as to be capable of undergoing displacement toward a seat width direction outer side with respect to the seatback frame, and support the seatback pad from a seat rear side.

A vehicle seat includes, at each side portion of a seatback frame, a side frame base portion that forms a side portion of the seatback frame, and that extends in a seat up-and-down direction; an outer side flange portion that is formed at a seat forward side of the side frame base portion, and that is inflected to a seat width direction outer side from the side frame base portion; and an inner side flange portion that is formed at a seat rear side of the side frame base portion, and that is inflected to a seat width direction inner side from the side frame base portion, a corner portion of the inner side flange portion curving in a circular arc shape.

A vehicle seat comprising a fastened member and a fastening member. The fastened member comprising a fastened member-side base section formed from metal, and a fastened member-side reinforcement section formed from fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), laminated in a sheet thickness direction over the whole of the fastened member-side base section so as to reinforce the fastened member-side base section. The fastening member comprising a fastening member-side base section formed from metal, and a fastening member-side reinforcement section formed from FRP, laminated in a sheet thickness direction over the whole of the fastening member-side base section so as to reinforce the fastening member-side base section. The fastening member is fastened to the fastened member by bringing the fastening member-side base section into contact with the fastened member-side base section.

A headrest including: a headrest body that supports a head portion of an occupant; a pair of side frame sections that supports the headrest body, the side frame sections extending along a seat height direction and disposed at a separation from each other along a seat width direction; and an inclined wall portion that is provided between the side frame sections, that is inclined towards a seat front-rear direction front side with respect to the side frame sections such that a lower end portion of the inclined wall portion is positioned further to the seat front-rear direction front side than an upper end portion of the inclined wall portion, and that bears load acting on the headrest body from a seat front-rear direction rear side.
