Open space type headrest for seat
An open space type headrest is applied to a vehicle seat in which a covering, which surrounds a foam pad of a volume body positioned on a mounting cover of a flat body coupled to a front surface of an exterior cover formed of a protrusion body, is fixed to the mounting cover, and opening spaces are formed in the exterior cover, the mounting cover, and the foam pad to enlarge front viewing of a rear passenger due to a see-through characteristic of a mesh fabric of the covering.
1 . A headrest for a vehicle seat, comprising:
a mounting cover;
a foam pad positioned on a front surface of the mounting cover; and
a covering made of a mesh fabric having a see-through characteristic and configured to surround the foam pad,
wherein the mounting cover and the foam pad each include openings that define an opening space extending through the headrest.
2 . The headrest of claim 1 , further comprising:
an exterior cover including an opening that is aligned with the openings of the mounting cover and the foam pad;
the mounting cover being formed of a flat body and positioned on a front surface of the exterior cover; and
the foam pad being formed of a volume body,
wherein the exterior cover, the mounting cover, and the foam pad form the opening space through the openings of the mounting cover, the foam pad, and the exterior cover.
3 . The headrest of claim 2 , wherein the opening space is formed in a left-right symmetrical structure inside a rim surrounding the protrusion body, the flat body, and the volume body.
4 . The headrest of claim 2 , wherein the opening space has any one shape among an elliptical shape, a circular shape, a quadrangular shape, or a triangular shape.
5 . The headrest of claim 2 , wherein the exterior cover and the mounting cover are injection molded frames.
6 . The headrest of claim 2 , wherein the foam pad is a foam molded product.
7 . The headrest of claim 2 , further comprising:
a string configured to fix an outer line of the mesh fabric of the covering and fixed to the mounting cover; and
a post frame positioned between the exterior cover and the mounting cover.
8 . The headrest of claim 7 , wherein:
the exterior cover forms a rear protrusion as the protrusion body; and
the rear protrusion accommodates a mechanical component of the post frame in an internal space.
9 . The headrest of claim 7 , wherein:
the mounting cover is provided with a plurality of hooks on an edge of the flat body; and
the string is hung on and fixed to at least one of the hooks.
10 . The headrest of claim 9 , wherein the at least one of the hooks is a protruding structure having an internal space into which the string is inserted.
11 . The headrest of claim 7 , wherein tension of the covering is controlled by a length of the string due to elasticity of the mesh fabric.
12 . The headrest of claim 7 , wherein the post frame includes:
a post configured to be detached from or attached to a backrest of the seat; and
a mechanical component which forms a rear inclination at an upper end of the post.
13 . The headrest of claim 12 , wherein the mechanical component is positioned inside the protrusion body of the exterior cover in a state of being coupled to the mounting cover.
14 . A vehicle seat comprising the headrest of claim 1 .
15 . A vehicle comprising the headrest of claim 1 .
16 . A seat for a vehicle, comprising:
a headrest comprising:
an exterior cover;
a mounting cover formed of a flat body and positioned on a front surface of the exterior cover;
a foam pad formed of a volume body and positioned on a front surface of the mounting cover; and
a covering surrounding the foam pad of the volume body, the covering being made of a mesh fabric having a see-through characteristic; and
a post frame positioned between the exterior cover and the mounting cover and configured to detach or attach the headrest from or on top of a backrest.
17 . The seat of claim 16 , wherein the headrest forms a front viewing extension of a rear passenger through an opening space defined by openings of the mounting cover, the foam pad, and the exterior cover.
18 . The seat of claim 16 , wherein the post frame includes:
a post configured to detach or attach the headrest from or to the top of the backrest; and
a mechanical component provided with a mechanism configured to implement forward and backward sliding of the headrest.
