Zusammenfassung:	A seat frame for use in a vehicle having a first seat frame member and a second seat frame member is provided. At least one of the first seat frame member and the second seat frame member has an adhesive positioned thereon. The adhesive is curable by heat generated by a diffused laser beam from a laser welder. A portion of the first seat frame member and a portion of the second seat frame member are positioned adjacent one another, such that a joint is formed and the adhesive is positioned between the portion of the first seat frame member and the portion of the second seat frame member. The seat frame is configured such that the diffused laser beam can be directed at the joint to heat the adhesive and thereby form a bond between the first seat frame member and the second seat frame member.
