Abstract: Seat assemblies and subassemblies are disclosed. For example, a ventilation subassembly may be disclosed. The subassembly may include a trim cover with a ventilation bag or membrane fixed thereto such as by stitching or welding. The ventilation bag or membrane may be disposed adjacent to the trim cover and extend from the trim cover through one or more additional layer to a carrier such that it is configured to receive a fluid flow from a blower for ventilating an occupant adjacent to the trim cover.

Abstract: A method of making a mesh cushion. The method includes extruding a material through a plurality of filament forming openings in at least one die plate to form a plurality of filaments. The filaments may be at least partially submerged into a fluid to cool and harden the filaments into the mesh cushion.

Abstract: A flexible lengthwise fastener is provided with a first retainer provided with a lengthwise substrate. The lengthwise fastener is also provided with a second retainer provided with a lengthwise substrate to engage with the lengthwise substrate of the first retainer. When the first retainer and the second retainer are combined, the first retainer and the second retainer provide the appearance of a traditional seam.

Abstract: A connection arrangement for tubular members may include a latch arrangement having a latch hook attached to a first tubular member and a striker arrangement attached to a second tubular member. The striker arrangement may include a transverse member extending transverse to the length of the second tubular member. The transverse member may be positioned proximate to the latch hook when an end of the first tubular member is positioned adjacent to an end of the second tubular member such that rotation of the latch hook engages the transverse member and effects a clamping force between the first tubular member and the second tubular member in a direction transverse to the rotational axis of the latch hook.

Abstract: A seat support is provided with a plurality of layers of a non-foam material to mount to a seat frame and to support an occupant upon the seat frame. The plurality of layers is stacked upon each other. At least one of the plurality of stacked layers has a generally uniform thickness.
