Abstract

The invention relates to a seat-back frame for a vehicle seat, which seat-back frame has a frame region extending transversely and two frame regions extending vertically and is of a U-shaped form. The object to provide a seat-back frame of the generic kind which has a minimum of components and at the same time allows a seat-back frame for belt-integrated vehicle seats to be provided easily is met in that there is provided a first half-shell made of a metal, which first half-shell forms a sub-region of each of the vertically extending frame regions of the seat-back frame and forms a sub-region of the transversely extending frame region of the seat-back frame, and there is provided a second sheet-metal half-shell which is connected to the first half-shell by bonding and which reinforces at least the transversely extending frame region of the seat-back frame.
