Abstract

A foamed product integral with trim cover assembly, of the type having a frame element provide therein, with two local portions of the frame element projecting outwardly therefrom. The trim cover assembly used has two extensions, with an opening defined therebetween. Both two extensions are bent to and juxtaposed on one cover material portion thereof, thereby forming a three-layer portion therein. The three-layer portion is sewn so as to define an unsewed region therein. The unsewed region has two spaced-part through-holes formed therethrough, hence providing two spaced-apart continuous through-hoes. The two local portions of frame element are inserted through the respective two spaced-apart continuous through-holes, so that the unsewed region is stretched horizontally to keep the corresponding portions of the juxtaposed two extensions and cover material portion in close contact with one another.
