attachment parts seat 11, and are adjacent to therear wall periphery 113, are of identical construction. They are in the form of a round housing with anopening 141, which is externally accessible from the side, and an outer contour which has an elliptical cross section narrowing eccentrically toward therear wall periphery 113. Theopenings 141 open out, beneath thevertical brackets curved transition regions lateral wall peripheries rear wall periphery 113. Theopenings 141 are bounded in the inward direction in each case by arear wall 142 in which ascrewhole 143 is provided. The elliptical cross sections of theopenings 141 taper conically toward therear wall 142 and correspond with the cross sections of the plug-instubs opening 141 is provided with aninner toothing formation outer toothing formation stub - When a
rear leg FIGS. 6A and 6B ), in the first instance the plug-instub 22′ is plugged into theopening 141 of theattachment part 14′. In this case, theouter toothing formation 220′ of the plug-instub 22′ and theinner toothing formation 140′ of theattachment part 14′ mesh with one another, as a result of which the plug-instub 22′is secured in a form-fitting manner against rotation. Themating toothing formations 220′,140′ result in a considerable increase in surface area, and thus in force distribution over a wide area, in order to control the torques acting in the plastic parts. At the same time, theblind hole 223 in theconvexity 222 within the plug-instub 22′ coincides with thescrewhole 143 in the rear wall of theattachment part 14′. In a following step, in order to fasten the plug-instub 22′, ascrew 19 is guided through the screw-hole 143 and engages, behind the latter, into the internal thread of theblind hole 223. -

bottom armrest part 24 is of shell-like design. In order that it is nevertheless sufficiently stable,bottom ribs 242 are provided internally for reinforcing purposes. Thetop armrest part 3, likewise of shell-like configuration, is reinforced bytop ribs 32, which form thesecond interspaces 37 between them. Thetop armrest part 3 is filled with afoam material 36 which, during foaming, penetrates into thesecond interspaces 37 and is thus subdivided into units which are distributed uniformly within thetop armrest part 3. Thefoam material 36 flows into therecesses 35 during foaming and, once it has set, is thus fastened on thetop armrest part 3. Thebottom armrest part 24 contains two upwardly projectingstubs 243 and thetop armrest part 3 contains two housing-like plug-instructures 33 withstub holes 34 which correspond with thestubs 243. For fastening purposes, thetop armrest part bottom armrest part stubs 243 penetrate into the stub holes 34 and are retained therein by a barb-like latching element 39. In order for the stub holes 34 to remain free during foaming of thefoam material 36, acover 38 is positioned on thehousing 33. -
FIGS. 9A to 9F - The
cushion 5 is of sandwich-like construction. Thecushion foam material 52 is introduced between atop sheet 51 and abottom sheet 50. Thebottom sheet 50 has a pattern ofperforations 500 around the periphery and thetop sheet 51 has a top pattern ofperforations 510 around the periphery. During foaming, thecushion foam material 52 flows into the bottom and top patterns ofperforation top sheets attachment parts top sheet 51 at the rear corners, which are adjacent to theattachment parts cushion 5 is in the inserted state. Theattachment parts seat 11 to some extent in the direction of therear wall periphery 113, so that a gap remains between theseat 11 andattachment parts top sheet 51 are pushed into this gap until the bottom sections of theattachment parts top sheet 51. Thebottom sheet 50 is foamed onto the seat and, in the process, flows into thefirst interspaces 132 formed by the longitudinal ribs andtransverse ribs bottom sheet 50 is secured by thelongitudinal ribs 130, which project upward from theseat 11 with a slight forward slant, against displacement both rearward in the horizontal direction and in the vertical direction, while thetransverse ribs 131 block thebottom sheet 50 against lateral displacement.
