Cushion pad
[Problem] To provide a cushion pad that allows reducing the oppressive feeling in a thigh and the sinking of buttocks and improving the texture and the fit feeling. [Solution] In a portion positioned underneath a hip point of a seated person, an under-buttock portion is set to have a smaller force S 25 during compression to 25% in a second portion including a seating surface than S 25 of the first portion positioned on a bottom surface side. The thigh supporting portion is set to have smaller S 25 of a portion including the seating surface than S 25 of the first portion. This allows reducing the oppressive feeling in the thigh and the sinking of the buttocks and improving the texture and the fit feeling.
1. A cushion pad, comprising:
an under-buttock portion that is adapted to support a buttocks of a seated person; and
a thigh supporting portion that is positioned forward of the under-buttock portion and that is adapted to support a thigh of the seated person, wherein
the under-buttock portion and the thigh supporting portion have seating surfaces adapted to face the seated person and bottom surfaces on an opposite side to the seating surfaces,
in a portion of the under-buttock portion adapted to be positioned underneath a hip point of the seated person, the under-buttock portion is set to have a smaller hardness at a second portion including the seating surface than a hardness of a first portion on the bottom surface side of a thickness center, the thickness center being a center sandwiched between the seating surface and the bottom surface in the thickness direction,
the thigh supporting portion is set to have a smaller hardness at a portion including the seating surface than the hardness of the first portion,
the hardness is a force during compression to 25% measured using a quadratic-prism-shaped test piece sampled by equally dividing the under-buttock portion and the thigh supporting portion,
the under-buttock portion includes in a vertical direction from the seating surface to the bottom surface, equally sectionalized layers including a seating portion layer, an upper center portion layer, a lower center portion layer, and a bottom surface portion layer, a hardness increasing in the vertical direction in the order corresponding to the seating portion layer, the upper center portion layer, the lower center portion layer, and the bottom surface portion layer, and a hardness increasing in the upper center portion layer and the lower center portion layer from a center of each layer to outer sides of each layer.
2. The cushion pad according to claim 1 , wherein
the under-buttock portion is set to have a larger hardness of a third portion than the hardness of the first portion, the third portion having a depth identical to a depth of the first portion from the seating surface, the third portion being adapted to be positioned rearward of the hip point.
3. The cushion pad according to claim 1 , wherein
the under-buttock portion is set to have a larger hardness of a fourth portion than the hardness of the first portion, the fourth portion having a depth identical to a depth of the first portion from the seating surface, the fourth portion being adapted to be positioned forward of the hip point.
4. The cushion pad according to claim 1 , wherein
the thigh supporting portion is set to have a larger hardness of a portion on the bottom surface side than the hardness of the portion including the seating surface.
5. The cushion pad according to claim 1 , wherein
the thigh supporting portion includes a forward end portion where the seating surface is adapted to face a lower thigh of the seated person, and
the forward end portion is set to have a larger hardness of a portion on the bottom surface side than a hardness of a portion including the seating surface.
6. The cushion pad according to claim 5 , wherein
the under-buttock portion and the thigh supporting portion are integrally molded by a single foamed synthetic resin material, and
the forward end portion is formed by being bent after the under-buttock portion and the thigh supporting portion are molded.
7. The cushion pad according to claim 4 , wherein
the thigh supporting portion includes a forward end portion where the seating surface is adapted to face a lower thigh of the seated person, and
the forward end portion is set to have a larger hardness of a portion on the bottom surface side than a hardness of a portion including the seating surface.
8. A cushion pad, comprising:
an under-buttock portion for supporting a buttocks of a seated person; and
a thigh supporting portion that is positioned forward of the under-buttock portion for supporting a thigh of the seated person, wherein
the under-buttock portion and the thigh supporting portion have seating surfaces for facing the seated person and bottom surfaces on an opposite side to the seating surfaces,
in a portion of the under-buttock portion to be positioned underneath a hip point of the seated person, the under-buttock portion is set to have a smaller hardness at a second portion including the seating surface than a hardness of a first portion on the bottom surface side of a thickness center, the thickness center being a center sandwiched between the seating surface and the bottom surface in the thickness direction,
the thigh supporting portion is set to have a smaller hardness at a portion including the seating surface than the hardness of the first portion,
the hardness is a force during compression to 25% measured using a quadratic-prism-shaped test piece sampled by equally dividing the under-buttock portion and the thigh supporting portion,
the under-buttock portion includes in a vertical direction from the seating surface to the bottom surface, equally sectionalized layers including a seating portion layer, an upper center portion layer, a lower center portion layer, and a bottom surface portion layer, a hardness increasing in the vertical direction in the order corresponding to the seating portion layer, the upper center portion layer, the lower center portion layer, and the bottom surface portion layer, and a hardness increasing in the upper center portion layer and the lower center portion layer from a center of each layer to outer sides of each layer.
