Abstract
A motor-vehicle headrest has a hollow housing having a front face and a back face, at least one mounting rod seated in the housing and adapted to be secured to a motor-vehicle seat back, and a body of soft cushion material on the front housing face. The back face is formed with a peripheral backwardly open groove and is substantially free of cushioning. A flexible cover sheet overlies the cushion body and has an outer edge engaged in the groove. A stiff rear cover has a forwardly directed rim tightly fitted in the groove and retains the cover edge therein. The housing is formed of a pair of joined-together cup-shaped parts. The groove is formed with teeth engaging and holding the cover-sheet edge.
