Abstract
A structure of bonding die for use with a trim cover assembly having a connected portion where one cover section thereof is sewn with another cover section thereof, and for pressure bonding the trim cover assembly to a foam cushion member. A retainer member is provided on the die, which is formed by bending a rigid wire material into a loop-like shape such as to have an inward elastic deformability give therein. Such retainer member permits its smooth insertion into the connected portion of trim cover assembly, without any tear and damage caused in the trim cover assembly per se, to thereby provide an easy and precise location of the trim cover assembly with respect to the foam cushion member.
