Abstract

A skin covered foamed plastic seat capable of structurally preventing the appearance of creases due to the parting lines of the mold. The skin covered foamed plastic seat includes a skin cover including a surface skin to form an outer surface of the skin covered foamed plastic seat and a wadding to be laminated with the surface skin, the skin cover having end sections to be pinched in parting line portions of a mold for manufacturing the skin covered foamed plastic seat, at which the lamination of the wadding over the surface skin is weaker than that in remaining sections of the skin cover.

Claims

1. A skin covered foamed plastic seat, comprising:

a skin cover including a surface skin to form an outer surface of the skin covered foamed plastic seat and a wadding laminated with the surface skin, the skin cover having end sections at which the laminated adherence between the wadding and the surface skin is weaker than that in remaining sections of the skin cover so that the skin cover and the wadding can be separated at the end sections while leaving the remaining sections in laminated adherence; and

a pad member made from liquid foam resin and covered by the skin cover.
