Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle seat with a removable trim cover, and to a vehicle seat with a removable trim cover and an integrated airbag chute (airbag chute).

Background

vehicle airbag systems that typically deploy through seams in trim materials within a vehicle typically require a design balance between forming seams in the trim material that are weak enough to allow the airbag to deploy properly, but not so weak that its integrity is not maintained during normal wear and tear on the trim material. This may be particularly true where the airbag system is installed in a vehicle seat, where the trim material may be stressed whenever a vehicle occupant sits in the seat or moves back and forth in the seat.
