Abstract
A seat with a trim cover assembly having plural stitches thereon, wherein the stitches are arranged in a non-parallel relation with one another on one unitary sheet of the trim cover assembly which is affixed over a cushion body. Those patterns of stitches are formed at one time by means of a multiple-needle sewing machine.
Claims7
A seat comprising:
- one unitary sheet of trim cover assembly;
- a set of plural parallel stitches which extend symmetrically relative to a central line of said trim cover assembly;
- and
- non-parallel stitches which are non-parallel to said central line and are in non-parallel gradually converging relation to each other, said parallel and said non-parallel stitches being formed on said one unitary sheet of trim cover assembly;
- a foam cushion body having a predetermined seat configuration and including uneven surface portions thereon;
- and
- said one unitary sheet of trim cover assembly being affixed over said foam cushion body such that said non-parallel stitches are disposed at said uneven surface portions of said foam cushion body, thereby presenting a generally parallel stitching pattern upon said seat.
The seat as claimed in claim 12, wherein both said one and another sets of stitches are disposed in a symmetrical fashion relative to a central line on said seat, and wherein said cushion body has, formed at its center, a protruded portion whose one end area is great in height and whose another end area is small in height.
The seat according to claim 12, wherein said trim cover assembly only includes one set of non-parallel stitches and another set of non-parallel stitches which are in a non-parallel relation with each other relative to said central line of said trim cover assembly, and wherein said trim cover assembly is of a generally trapezoidal shape, having lateral sides which are each inclined at an angle equal to respective inclined angles of said one and another sets of non-parallel stitches.
