Mat attachment structure of seatback and vehicle seat
A mat attachment structure of a seatback includes: a guide wire attached to the mat and provided, at the distal end part, with a straight portion extending in a longitudinal direction of the seatback frame on a tip side of the seatback frame or its root side; and a through-hole formed in the seatback frame and through which the straight portion is insertable. The through-hole is provided with a protruding part which includes a high protruding portion and a low protruding portion formed adjacent to the high protruding portion. In a first movement of the mat, the straight portion moves in a de-insertion direction while coming into contact with the high protruding portion. As the amount of movement of the mat gets larger than the amount of movement of the first movement, a contact position between the straight portion and the protruding part moves toward the low protruding portion.
1. A mat attachment structure of a seatback for attaching a mat to a seatback frame, the mat configured to receive a force from a back of an occupant leaning against the seatback, the mat attachment structure comprising:
a guide wire attached to the mat, the guide wire provided, at a distal end part thereof, with a straight portion which extends in a longitudinal direction of the seatback frame on a tip side of the seatback frame or a root side thereof; and
a through-hole which is formed in the seatback frame and through which the straight portion is insertable in the longitudinal direction, wherein
the through-hole is provided, at a periphery thereof, with a protruding part which includes a high protruding portion protruding in a burring shape on an insertion outlet side of the straight portion and a low protruding portion formed adjacent to the high protruding portion with a protruding height smaller than that of the high protruding portion, and
the mat attachment structure is configured so that:
a first movement of the mat associated with an occupant's seating action allows the straight portion to be moved in a de-insertion direction while coming into contact with the high protruding portion; and
a contact position between the straight portion and the protruding part moves toward the low protruding portion as the amount of movement of the mat gets larger apart from the amount of movement of the first movement.
2. The mat attachment structure of claim 1 , wherein
when the straight portion moves in the de-insertion direction while coming into contact with the low protruding portion, the low protruding portion bites into the straight portion of the guide wire, whereby the movement of the straight portion in the de-insertion direction is restricted.
3. A vehicle seat, comprising:
a seat cushion;
a seatback;
a seatback frame arranged inside the seat back; and
a mat configured to receive a force from a back of an occupant leaning against the seatback, wherein
the mat is attached to the seatback frame by a mat attachment structure comprising:
a guide wire attached to the mat, the guide wire provided, at a distal end part thereof, with a straight portion which extends in a longitudinal direction of the seatback frame on a tip side of the seatback frame or a root side thereof; and
a through-hole which is formed in the seatback frame and through which the straight portion is insertable in the longitudinal direction, wherein
the through-hole is provided, at a periphery thereof, with a protruding part which includes a high protruding portion protruding in a burring shape on an insertion outlet side of the straight portion and a low protruding portion formed adjacent to the high protruding portion with a protruding height smaller than that of the high protruding portion, and
the mat attachment structure is configured so that:
a first movement of the mat associated with an occupant's seating action allows the straight portion to be moved in a de-insertion direction while coming into contact with the high protruding portion; and
a contact position between the straight portion and the protruding part moves toward the low protruding portion as the amount of movement of the mat gets larger apart from the amount of movement of the first movement.
4. The vehicle seat of claim 3 , wherein
when the straight portion moves in the de-insertion direction while coming into contact with the low protruding portion, the low protruding portion bites into the straight portion of the guide wire, whereby the movement of the straight portion in the de-insertion direction is restricted.
