A manufacturing method of a trim cover surface material, includes: providing a jig including a first frame configured to hold an outer periphery of an outer material and a second frame configured to hold an outer periphery of a wadding material by overlapping the wadding material on the outer material which is held by the first frame; holding the outer periphery of the outer material with the first frame of the jig; forming through holes at the outer material which is held by the jig; holding the outer periphery of the wadding material with the second frame of the jig while the outer material is held by the first frame of the jig; and forming stitches at the outer material and the wadding material which are overlapped and held by the jig.

Manufacturing method, manufacturing apparatus and manufacturing jig of trim cover surface material

A trim cover includes: a plurality of skin materials; and a sewing part formed by sewing two skin materials of the plurality of skin materials with multiple rows of seams which extend in parallel with a sewing line of the two skin materials. In the trim cover formed by sewing the plurality of skin materials, the inclining direction of the seam allowances of the two sewn skin materials can be easily made constant so as to suppress the meandering of the sewing line of the two skin materials, and the appearance quality of the vehicle seat covered with the trim cover can be improved.

Trim cover and vehicle seat

A vehicle seat includes: a trim cover including: a plurality of surface materials joined each other; a core material; a welt surface material wrapping the core material; a welt provided along a seam of two pieces of joined surface materials; and an empty core part provided with the welt, the empty core part reaching one end of the welt; and a seat element overlapped on the empty core part.

Vehicle seat

A trim cover includes a plurality of surface materials joined each other, the plurality of surface materials including two pieces of surface materials, each of which is formed with a plurality of elements that form an iterative pattern repeated along a joining direction of the two pieces of the surface materials, wherein the plurality of elements line up by a same pattern in an extending direction of sewing regions of the two pieces of surface materials, and extend parallel to the joining direction, at least at the sewing regions.
