Abstract

A seat having a seating face made of sheet resilient material is assembled from a seat frame comprising a substantially quadrilateral frame body, the sheet resilient material forming the seating face, a pad member forming a largely rising bank, and a skin material enclosing the pad member, wherein the sheet resilient material is stretched within a frame body of the seat frame, one end of the skin material is abutted against and fixed on the frame body of the seat frame, the pad member is assembled outside the seat frame, the skin material covers outside of the pad member from the one end which is abutted against and fixed on the frame body of the seat frame, and the other end is wound and stopped around a back of the seat frame, a bank which rises larger than the surface position of the seating face made of the sheet resilient material which is stretched within the frame of the seat frame is formed, and the bank is assembled as a strong bank with a simple structure, and the pad member prevents the seat frame from touching a sitting passenger so that the sitting passenger should not feel a sense of incongruity.
