Abstract

A multiple-part surface covering for the cladding of support structures includes at least two surface covering parts, respective portion of a first and second surface covering parts, and a cover. The at least two surface covering parts are sewn to one another by way of a connecting seam. The respective portion of a first surface covering part and a respective portion of a second surface covering part form a seam overhang. The cover is sewn to the two surface covering parts by way of the connecting seam and covers the seam overhang. An edge strip core is arranged between the cover and the seam overhang.

Claims (19)

1. A multiple-part surface covering for the cladding of support structures, comprising:

at least two surface covering parts, which are sewn to one another by way of a connecting seam;

a respective portion of a first surface covering part and a respective portion of a second surface covering part forming a seam overhang; and

a cover, which is sewn to the two surface covering parts by way of the connecting seam and covers the seam overhang, wherein

an edge strip core is arranged between the cover and the seam overhang, and

in the region of the seam overhang, the edge strip core is arranged at least partially between that portion of the first surface covering part and that portion of the second surface covering part that form the seam overhang.

2. The multiple-part surface covering according to claim 1 , wherein the edge strip core extends lengthwise along a lengthwise extent of the seam overhang.

3. The multiple-part surface covering according to claim 2 , wherein a surface of the first part of the surface covering part and a surface of the second part of the surface covering part are in touching contact with one another in the region of the seam overhang.

4. The multiple-part surface covering according to claim 2 , wherein

the edge strip core is formed from plastic, or synthetic materials, or cotton wool rope.

5. The multiple-part surface covering according to claim 4 , wherein

the edge strip core has a circular cross section with an external diameter in the range of from 1.5 mm to 6.0 mm.

6. The multiple-part surface covering according to claim 5 , wherein

the edge strip core has a hollow form and has a wall thickness in the range of from 0.5 mm to 2 mm.

7. The multiple-part surface covering according to claim 6 , wherein

an elongation ε of the edge strip core ranges between 0% and 100%.

8. An interior component for vehicles, comprising:
