Abstract
An apparatus for affixing a covering member to a padding so as to produce an armrest body for use on an automotive seat, wherein an upper die assembly, on which is secured the padding, is provided in a vertical movable way, and a lower die assembly is provided under the upper die assembly, the lower die assembly including a pair of guide belts and a pair of support members which are so disposed as to surround a drive source. The covering member, which exposes its reverse surfaces, is placed on those two support members and guide belts, and undergoes its turning-over to expose its top surfaces, with insertion of the padding thereinto, so that the covering member is neatly affixed over the padding.
