Seat pad and seat for vehicle
Ridge portions 9 are provided to be continuously present in orthogonally intersecting directions by forming plural recessed holes 8 in the upper surface of an under-thighs portion 2 and an under-buttocks portion 3 of a seat pad 1 for a vehicle. The height of each ridge portion 9 , i.e. the depth h of each recessed hole 8 , is preferably in the range of 2 to 40 mm, more preferably in the range of 5 to 20 mm, the width w of each recessed hole 8 is preferably in the range of 10 to 30 mm, more preferably in the range of 20 to 30 mm, and the area of an opening of each recessed hole 8 is preferably in the range of 50 to 1000 mm 2 , more preferably in the range of 100 to 900 mm 2 . Accordingly, the present invention can provide a seat pad, which is excellent in soft sensation of touch of a surface thereof, satisfactory in the properties of supporting an occupant, and can be produced by integral foam molding.
1. A seat pad formed by a resin foam molding, for use in a vehicle, comprising:
an occupant-buttocks contact surface area;
a rear surface area opposite to the occupant-buttocks contact surface area; and
plural recessed holes formed in the rear surface area,
wherein portions between the recessed holes constitute ridge portions, and the seat pad is formed of polyurethane foam having density of 46 to 100 kg/m 3 , 25% ILD hardness of 15 to 45 kgf/200 mmφ.
2. The seat pad for a vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the recessed holes are formed at least in a bottom surface below an under-thighs portion.
3. A seat for a vehicle, having a cushion pad and a back pad constituted of the seat pad of claim 1 , wherein recessed holes in the back pad are deeper than recessed holes in the cushion pad.
4. The seat pad for a vehicle of claim 3 , wherein the recessed holes are formed at least in an under-thighs portion of the cushion pad and a back contact portion of the back pad.
5. The seat pad for a vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the seat pad is formed of polyurethane foam having density of 50 to 100 kg/m 3 , 25% ILD hardness of 15 to 45 kgf/200 mmφ.
