In Figure 9, the hollow fibre filling material may be removable from the cover and the cover may comprise a fastener operable to allow the cover to be opened or closed to allow removal and/or insertion of the filling material.
In the embodiment of Figure 9, more filling material is provided in the neck and trunk support section 108 than in the seat section 104 or the back section 106, in order to provide more support for the trunk and in particular the neck of a user.
It should be appreciated that the groin strap 112, the apertures 114 and the carrying strap 116 are all optional features that need not be provided.
Figure 1OA to 1OF shows the manufacturing steps of the seat liner of Figure 9. In Figure 1OA two appropriately shaped pieces of fleece fabric 200 are provided.
In Figure lOB, the two pieces of fabric 200 are machined to form a cover having a seat section 204, a back section 206 and a neck and trunk support section 208 and filled with hollow fibre material. The sections 204, 206, 208 may be provided by appropriate stitching, gluing, ultrasonic welding or the like of the two fabric sections 200. The cover is filled with hollow fibre material to provide the desired shape of the respective sections.
In Figure 1OC, side straps 210 are attached to the seat liner to provide apertures through which an aircraft lap belt can be retained. The side straps are attached to the seat section 204 and the neck and trunk support section 208. The side straps may be soft webbing and may be 25 mm webbing. The webbing may be attached to the seat liner by stitching, gluing, ultrasonic welding or the like.
Figure 1OD shows the optional step of the addition of the groin strap 212 to the seat liner. In Figure 1OD the groin strap 212 is attached to the seat section 204. The groin strap may be attached to the seat section 204 by stitching, gluing, ultrasonic welding or the ike.
Figure 1OE shows the optional step of the addition of the carrying strap 216 the seat liner. In Figure bE, the carrying strap 216 is attached to the neck and trunk support section 208. The carrying strap may be attached to the neck and trunk support section 208 by stitching, gluing, ultrasonic welding or the like.
Figure iDE shows the optional step of providing apertures in the back section 206. The apertures 214 may be formed by cutting or any other method of removing the necessary material to create the aperture. The cover is sealed around the apertures to prevent any of the hollow fibre filling material from leaving the cover. This sealing may be performed by stitching, gluing, ultrasonic welding or the like.
It will thus be seen that the present invention provides a seat liner that is readily portable. The invention thus provides a contouring airline seat insert that provides support and comfort to users.
Although the above describes the use of apertures and 1oops in order to retain the lap belt of an aircraft seat, it should be appreciated that clips, buckles, hook and look arrangements or other securing means could equally be used. It should particularly be noted that the lap belt need not pass through the side engagement members and/or the groin engagement member and may instead be coupled to the surface of those engagement members.
Although the above describes the use of the seat liners 10, 100 with an aircraft seat, it should be apparent that the seat liner could be used with a train, car or coach (bus) seat with appropriate modifications of the side engagement members, groin engagement member and apertures in the back section to retain the seat belts particular to those type of seats. For example, with a three point seat belt as commonly found in cars and on coaches (buses), the lap belt portion of the seat belt could be retained by the side engagement members and optionally the groin engagement member by clip or the like, and the sash portion of the seat belt could be retained by appropriate coupling to the apertures in the back section of the seat liner, by clip or the like for example.
Although the above describes a seat liner having cover filled with filling material, it should be appreciated that the cover may instead be inflatable to provide the desired shape and support for a user. By providing an inflatable cover, the seat liner can be inflated for use a deflated for ease of transport and storage.
