【考案の詳細な説明】 （産業上の利用分野） 本考案は、シートの着座形状を記憶する着座形状記憶部
材に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a seating shape memory member that stores a seating shape of a seat.
（従来技術） 従来より、座り心地の良いシートを提供する為に、開発
時において、着座状態におけるシート表面の形状や体圧
分布等を測定して定量化し、これら測定データを基にシ
ート表面の形状等を再び設計しなおすことが繰り返し行
なわれている。(Prior Art) Conventionally, in order to provide a seat that is comfortable to sit on, at the time of development, the shape and body pressure distribution of the seat surface in the seated state were measured and quantified, and the seat surface It has been repeatedly performed to redesign the shape and the like.
そして、前記シートの着座形状を測定する手段として、
石膏を含んだ布（着座形状記憶部材）をシート上に敷
き、この石膏を含んだ布上に着座して該布を硬化させる
ことにより型を取り、この型の表面形状を表面形状測定
機により数量的に測定することが行なわれている。And, as a means for measuring the seating shape of the seat,
A cloth containing gypsum (seated shape memory member) is laid on a sheet, and a mold is taken by sitting on the cloth containing gypsum and curing the cloth, and the surface shape of this mold is measured with a surface profilometer. It is measured quantitatively.
しかし、この従来の手段では、着座形状記憶部材として
石膏を用いる為に一度しか使用することができず、測定
毎に着座形状記憶部材を用意する必要があり、コストア
ップを招いていた。また、座り直し等ができず、所望の
着座状態を再現しにくいものであった。さらに、石膏は
通常の外気温で硬化するので、型取り前まで冷蔵してい
るが、冷蔵庫等から取り出して着座するまえに硬化する
おそれがあり、精度面での問題があった。However, with this conventional means, since plaster is used as the seating shape memory member, it can be used only once, and it is necessary to prepare the seating shape memory member for each measurement, resulting in an increase in cost. Moreover, it was difficult to re-seated, and it was difficult to reproduce a desired sitting state. Further, since plaster hardens at normal ambient temperature, it is refrigerated until it is taken out of the mold, but it may harden before it is taken out from a refrigerator or the like and seated, which is a problem in terms of accuracy.
また、実開昭５７−１０５９０７号公報に示されるよう

憶材を用いてシートの着座形状を型取りし、この型を表
面形状測定機により測定しているのが実状である。Further, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 57-105907, it is also known to measure the seating shape by using sensors such as a strain gauge. According to this means, it is possible to repeatedly measure, but there is a problem that the seat shape between the sensors cannot be accurately measured. Again, the seating shape of the seat is molded using the seating shape memory material, and this mold is used. The actual condition is measured by a surface profiler.

る。Reference numeral 1 is a seat including a seat seat 2 and a seat back 3. On the seat 1, a mold taker 4 as a seating shape memory member is arranged. This mold taker 4 will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 of the drawings. A heating wire 6 as a heating member is provided inside a main body 5 made of a thermosoftening resin. Is connected to the power source 8 via the switch (the switch 7 and the power source 8 constitute the switching means described in the claims of the utility model). Further, the main body 5 is covered with a vinyl resin 9 to prevent its shape from being lost when it is softened by heat. Further, a slit 10 is formed in a portion, which will be described later, where the curvature is increased when the human body is seated, so as to prevent damage and collapse of the mold taker 4 when seated.
次に、前記型取り器４を用いた、シートの着座形状の測
定方法について説明する。Next, a method of measuring the seating shape of the seat using the mold taker 4 will be described.

５が硬化した後、モデル11が型取り器４から離れること
により、シートの着座形状を型取る作業が終了する。First, the switch 7 is turned on to heat the heating wire 9,
The main body 5 in a softened state is placed on the seat cushion 2 of the seat 1, which is a test body. Next, the model (human body as an occupant) 11 sits down. In this case, switch 7 is turned on.
The state is maintained, and the switch 7 is turned off when the model 11 reaches a desired seated state. Then, after the main body 5 is hardened, the model 11 is separated from the mold taker 4, whereby the work of taking the seated shape of the seat is completed.
次に、型取り器４の表面形状を図示しない表面形状測定
器により数量的に測定する。Next, the surface shape of the mold taker 4 is quantitatively measured by a surface shape measuring device (not shown).

が可能となるものである。As described above, according to the present embodiment, the seating shape can be accurately modeled by the mold taker 4, and by measuring the surface shape of the mold taker 4, the seating shape of the seat can be detailed. Not only can it be accurately grasped, but also the mold taker 4 can be used over and over again, which is advantageous in terms of cost. Further, since the model 11 can be seated again when it is seated, highly accurate measurement is possible.
尚、必要に応じて型取り終了時（型取り器４の硬化時）
にワーニングするようにしてもよく、この１実施例とし
て第４図に示すようなものが考えられる。In addition, if necessary, at the time of completion of mold making (when curing the mold making device 4)
The warning may be given to the above, and as one example of this, the one shown in FIG. 4 can be considered.
