DESIGN MEMBER AND METHOD OF ATTACHING DESIGN MEMBER

To provide a design member which can be arranged by expanding a pair of interposed portions on the back side of the skin with a relatively simple configuration.SOLUTION: With reference to the state before a design member 10A is attached to the stitch, in hinge portions 20 and 30, a pair of interposed portions 14A and 14B are bent in directions away from each other. In leg portions 22 and 32, the pair of interposed portions 14A and 14B are disposed closer to each other than the hinge portions 20 and 30 in a facing manner. By pressing the hinge portions 20 and 30 in a direction to bring the pair of interposed portions 14A and 14B close to each other, inner surfaces (26, 36) of the leg portions 22 and 32 on the side of the hinge portions 20 and 30 are pressed against each other, so that the leg portions 22 and 32 of the pair of interposed portions 14A and 14B are expanded in directions away from each other with the inner surface (26, 36) being pressed as a base point.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】比較的簡素な構成によって、一対の介装部を表皮の裏側で拡開させて配置可能な意匠部材を提供することにある。【解決手段】意匠部材１０Ａが縫目に取付けられる前の状態を基準として、ヒンジ部位２０，３０では、一対の介装部１４Ａ，１４Ｂが互いに離れる方向に曲がっているとともに、脚部位２２，３２では、ヒンジ部位２０，３０よりも一対の介装部１４Ａ，１４Ｂが近接して対面状に配置されており、ヒンジ部位２０，３０を、一対の介装部１４Ａ，１４Ｂを近接させる方向に押し潰して、ヒンジ部位２０，３０側の脚部位２２，３２の内面（２６，３６）同士を押し当てることにより、一対の介装部１４Ａ，１４Ｂの脚部位２２，３２同士が、押当てられている内面（２６，３６）部分を基点として互いに離れる方向に拡開する。【選択図】図４
