Abstract:
An interior part includes a base material and an outer skin material adhered to a front surface of the base material. The outer skin material includes a front surface formed with a stitch pattern of a thread inserted by engagement with a sewing needle to pass from a front surface of the outer skin material to a back surface of the base material to obliquely pass through the front surface of the base material, so that the thread forms a loop portion fixed on the back surface of the base material. The base material includes a seat surface for preventing slippage of the sewing needle on the front surface of the base material in a position where the thread of the stitch pattern is inserted.

Claim (Index 5):
A method for manufacturing the interior part according to  claim 1 , wherein\n a stitching apparatus for producing the stitch pattern comprises: a thread supply device to be placed above the outer skin material, the thread supply device being configured to operate the sewing needle to supply the thread to the base material; and a supporting jig to be placed in contact with the back surface of the base material to hold the base material in a predetermined posture, the sewing needle includes an outer peripheral surface on a thread supply side and is formed, on the outer peripheral surface, with a thread groove extending in a needle axis direction to guide the thread, the supporting jig includes: a thread push surface to be placed in almost parallel to an outer peripheral surface of the sewing needle on the thread supply side in the needle axis direction and to be spaced with a minute clearance from the outer peripheral surface of the sewing needle when the sewing needle passes through the base material to the back surface; and a thread escape surface placed facing the thread push surface with respect to the sewing needle and configured to accommodate the loop portion of the thread, and the method includes inserting the sewing needle to the back surface of the base material and then retracting the sewing needle, so that the thread in the thread groove is pushed by the thread push surface toward an opposite side to the thread groove with respect to the needle axis, and the tread forms a loop portion between the sewing needle and the thread escape surface.
