Abstract: A foam part (5, 105, 205, 305), in particular for a vehicle seat, includes a first foam layer (11, 111, 211, 311) facing a user and a second foam layer (21, 221) facing away from the user. The first foam layer has a hardness and/or density that is different from the hardness or density of the second foam layer (21, 221). The first foam layer includes several comfort tubes (50, 150, 250, 350) facing the user. A method for producing such a foam part (5, 105, 205, 305) includes a first step in which the first foam layer, having the comfort tubes (50, 150, 250, 350), is foamed and a second step in which the second foam layer (21, 221) is foamed. A tool (500) for producing a foam part (5, 105, 205, 305) includes a bottom part (510), a frame (520), and a top part (530).

Abstract: A method for producing a cushion element for a vehicle seat, in which a component suitable for forming a three-dimensional separation zone is inserted in a tool, subsequently at least one first foamable mass is introduced into a first space of the tool. On foaming the mass, the component forms a three-dimensional separating element between a first foamed cushion region and a further space within the tool. The component is pressed against a counter-support in the tool during the forming to give a three-dimensional separating element. A suitable tool comprises an upper tool, a lower tool and a counter support for contacting a component taking on a three-dimensional shape. By introducing the three-dimensional mouldable shape into the tool and the subsequent forming thereof to give a three-dimensional separating element, complex formed regions with differing properties, in particular, differing degrees of hardness can be economically generated in a foamed cushion element.

Abstract: A vehicle seat cushion comprises at least two foam materials, having different hardnesses, and a fleece arranged between the foam materials. The cushion may be made by introducing a first material into a tool, covering the first material with the fleece, and then introducing a second material into the tool. Alternatively, both materials, separated by the fleece, may be introduced into the tool. The foam materials may have the same or different thicknesses, and these thicknesses may vary over the length and/or width of the cushion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a foam part consisting of polyurethane or similar, especially for use as a support for backrests, seats or similar of vehicle seats. Said foam part has a first area (2) consisting of foam with a first composition and a second area (3) consisting of foam with a second composition. The inventive foam part is produced economically by providing a network (4) of polyethylene, jute, gauze, nonwoven material or similar between the first and second areas (2, 3).

Abstract: A seat cushion for vehicle seats is disclosed. The seat cushion includes a seating surface and a core including a plurality of cylindrical tubular sections generally extending perpendicular to the seating surface.

Abstract: This invention deals with a particular mounting device--and its production--for foaming in a foam part made of polyurethane or similar material and serving as a pad for backrests, seating surfaces, and respective areas of car seats. The mounting device allows attachment of a cover onto the foam part. This invention dispenses with the use of metal inlaid wires in the foam part and uses an easily-produced foam part. The mounting device has a girder section with preferably a coarse meshwork which is at least partially foamed around by polyurethane or similar material before being placed into a mold for the foam part.
