Abstract: A method for the production of a fixing piece (12, 36) serves for fixing of covering material to cushion pieces for vehicle seats. A profile body (12) is connected to a separately produced sewn tag (36) which at least partly engages in a housing opening (34) in the profile body (12). The profile body (12) and the sewn tag (36), at least in the common jointing positions thereof, are predominantly made of plastic materials. According to the present invention, the known welding and glued connecting applications can be further improved such that the production method can be rapidly carried out with low production costs and without additional materials. A strong connection can be achieved, conforming to more stringent environmental aspects.

Abstract: A device for mounting any type of seat covers (10) on foam cushion parts (12) of a seat, more particularly a vehicle seat, uses gripping elements (14) which form actuation groups (16, 18, 20, 22, 24) receiving the profiled strips (26, 28, 30, 32, 34) arranged on the seat cover (10). The gripping elements pull the profiled strips (16, 18, 20, 22, 24) into channel-like recesses (44, 46, 48, 50, 52) in the foam cushion part (12) by a positioning device (42). The positioning device allows a relative movement between the foam cushion part (12) and the corresponding gripping element (14) to fix the seat cover (10) to the foam cushion part (12).
