A method for manufacturing a vehicle seat component includes a first step of integrating a cushion member and an upholstery member together during molding of the cushion member, and a second step of forming a flow passage through which air passes from a back surface of the cushion member toward the upholstery member.

Method for manufacturing vehicle seat component

Embodiments of the present invention may include a vehicle seat having a cushion pad, a seat skin, webbing, and a retaining structure. The cushion pad is configured to cover a seat frame and to be attached to the seat frame. The seat skin is configured to cover the cushion pad. The seat skin is provided with a developing portion to be developed by a developing force of an airbag. The webbing is connected to the seat skin so as to transmit the developing force of the airbag to the developing portion. A fastener is provided at a fixation portion of the webbing. The fastener is fastened to the seat frame. The retaining structure retains the fastener at a predetermined position with respect to a back surface of the cushion pad in a state prior to the fastening the fastener to the seat frame.

Vehicle seats and manufacturing methods thereof

A vehicle seat component includes a cushion member, and an upholstery member that covers the cushion member. The cushion member and the upholstery member are integrated together during molding of the cushion member. The upholstery member has a first portion that is air-permeable and that is arranged at a seating side, and a second portion that is laminated on the first portion and that prevents intrusion of a molding material of the cushion member. A thin section that is recessed toward the upholstery member is formed in a back surface of the cushion member.
