Abstract
A method of integrally bonding a foam seat pad or other article to a cover material, includes steps of coating a main surface of the pad with a heat activated adhesive. Then, the pad is affixed to an upper mounting member. A lower mounting member is positioned opposite the upper mounting member and the cover material is disposed on the lower mounting member. Heating is applied to the adhesive coating the main surface of the pad, and when sufficient heat is applied the upper and lower mounting members are pressed together for a predetermined time period. Clamps are provided on the mounting members for surely positioning the pad relative the cover material. Thus, accurate positioning and strong bonding are reliably assured.
