US 12,565,130 B2 · Vehicle seat component with cover member

Abstract

A vehicle seat component includes a mounting structure, and a cover member attachable to the mounting structure. When the cover member is attached to the mounting structure, the cover member is movable between a first position for at least partially covering an attachment location configured for attaching an additional device, and a second position for exposing the attachment location. The mounting structure and the cover member are configured so that the cover member is attachable to the mounting structure by moving the cover member relative to the mounting structure in a mounting direction when the cover member is in a mounting orientation relative to the mounting structure. When the cover member is attached to the mounting structure, the cover member is inhibited from detachment from the mounting structure when the cover member is in the first position or the second position.
