Application of Unidirectional Hook and Loop Attachment to Aircraft Seat Upholstery Application

A method for attaching passenger seat coverings in an aircraft comprising:

• providing at least one of a seat, a seat cushion, or a seat frame;
• providing a seat cover;
• providing a first part of a first hook and loop fastener structure attached to the at least one of the seat, the seat cushion, or the seat frame;
• providing a second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure attached to an interior surface of the seat cover, wherein the first part of the first hook and loop fastener structure or the second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure further comprises a first plurality of hooks configured to align in a first single direction,
• providing an interface between the first part of the first hook and loop fastener structure and the second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure, wherein a portion of the interface is configured to restrict sliding of the first part of the first hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure in a first direction, while permitting sliding of the first part of the first hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure in a second direction;
• providing a first part of a second hook and loop fastener structure attached to the at least one of the seat, the seat cushion, or the seat frame;
• providing a second part of the second hook and loop fastener structure attached to the interior surface of the seat cover, wherein the first part of the second hook and loop fastener structure or the second part of the second hook and loop fastener structure further comprises a second plurality of hooks configured to align in a second single direction
• providing an interface between the first part of the second hook and loop fastener structure and the second part of the second hook and loop fastener structure, wherein a portion of the interface is configured to restrict sliding of the first part of the second hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the second hook and loop fastener in a third direction, while permitting sliding of the first part of the second hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the second hook and loop fastener structure in a fourth direction wherein the second interface is configured in a reverse orientation than of the first interface;
• and
• sliding the first part of the first hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure;
• and
• sliding the first part of the second hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the second hook and loop fastener structure, wherein a permitted sliding of the first part of the second hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the second hook and loop fastener structure and a permitted sliding of the first part of the first hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure reduces wrinkling of the seat cover, wherein a restricted sliding of the first part of the second hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the second hook and loop fastener structure and a restricted sliding of the first part of the first hook and loop fastener structure against the second part of the first hook and loop fastener structure prevents wrinkling of the seat cover.
