Abstract

Provided is a conveyance seat with which the assemblability of a wire member with respect to a seat frame can be improved. A conveyance seat includes a seat frame. The seat frame has: a pair of side frames arranged in side portions of the conveyance seat; and a cross-linking frame cross-linking the pair of side frames, a wire member is disposed between the pair of side frames, the cross-linking frame has a wire receiving portion receiving the wire member, and the wire member is fastened to the wire receiving portion.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A conveyance seat, comprising a seat frame, wherein the seat frame includes:
side frames arranged in side portions of the conveyance seat;
a cross-linking frame cross-linking the side frames;
a pressure receiving member support member disposed between the side frames; and
a planar pressure receiving member attached to the pressure receiving member support member;
wherein each of the side frames includes an extending portion extending toward the pressure receiving member;
wherein the pressure receiving member is bridged over the pressure receiving member support member and the extending portion, and includes an overlapping portion that overlaps the extending portion; and
wherein a length of the extending portion in a direction that is same as a longitudinal direction of the pressure receiving member support member is greater than a length of the overlapping portion of the pressure receiving member in the direction that is same as the longitudinal direction of the pressure receiving member support member.

2. The conveyance seat according to claim 1 , wherein an upper end of the extending portion is disposed in the side portion of the conveyance seat.

3. The conveyance seat according to claim 1 , wherein an upper end of the extending portion is disposed above the pressure receiving member in an up to down direction of the conveyance seat.

4. The conveyance seat according to claim 1 , wherein
the pressure receiving member is provided with an engaging portion for being fixed to the pressure receiving member support member,
the cross-linking frame includes an end portion receiving portion that is provided in an end portion of the cross-linking frame in a width direction of the conveyance seat and receives an end portion of the pressure receiving member support member, and
an upper end of the extending portion is disposed between the engaging portion and the end portion receiving portion in the direction that is same as the longitudinal direction of the pressure receiving member support member.

5. The conveyance seat according to claim 1 , wherein
the pressure receiving member includes a side portion support portion configured to support a side portion of an occupant, and
a lower end of the extending portion is disposed below the side portion support portion.

6. The conveyance seat according to claim 1 , wherein a lower end of the extending portion is disposed at a position opposite to one of the side frames.

7. The conveyance seat according to claim 1 , wherein the extending portion is a separate member from the side frame.

8. A method for manufacturing a conveyance seat having a seat frame, comprising:
preparing side frames of the seat frame, each of the side frames including an extending portion;
arranging the side frames in side portions of the conveyance seat;
connecting the side frames by a cross-linking frame;
disposing a pressure receiving member support member between the side frames;
attaching a planar pressure receiving member to the pressure receiving member support member; and
bridging the pressure receiving member over the pressure receiving member support member and the extending portions, the extending portions extending toward the pressure receiving member;
wherein the pressure receiving member includes an overlapping portion that overlaps the extending portion, and
wherein a length of the extending portion in a direction that is same as a longitudinal direction of the pressure receiving member support member is greater than a length of the overlapping portion of the pressure receiving member in the direction that is same as the longitudinal direction of the pressure receiving member support member.
