Abstract
A seat including a hand grip and a seat back assembly. The seat back assembly has a rigid frame and a trim cover for covering at least a portion of the frame. The hand grip includes an outer surface, an inner surface, a grip area, a flange and a tab. The inner surface is opposite the outer surface. The grip area is defined in the outer surface and is adapted to accommodate a hand of a person. The flange bounds the grip area for concealing a portion or the trim cover during assembly of the hand grip to the seat. The tab extends outwardly from the inner surface of the grip. A distal end of the tab is generally parallel and spaced apart with the inner surface of the hand grip for receiving the frame therebetween.
