Abstract

An integral seatback frame and headrest frame cushion and cover that accommodates angular and/or upward motion of the headrest relative to the seatback. A lower, primary cushion and integral, upper front flap cover the front of the seatback frame and headrest frame respectively, concealing the gap between the two. A rear flap covers most of the back surface of the headrest frame, and the two flaps are not secured tightly to the surfaces of the headrest frame, but have some internal clearance therefrom. When the headrest frame rocks forward, the two covering flaps travel with it without binding or stretching the cushion material.
