Patent attributes
An skirt having an upper portion and a lower portion covers at least components of a suspension of an active suspension seat, wherein the upper portion is coupled to an upper frame of the suspension and includes at least an upper front portion having a curved cross-section, and wherein the lower portion is coupled to a lower frame of the suspension and includes a lower front portion that has an upper edge and that has either a curved or L-shape cross-section. The suspension causes the upper frame to move in a curvilinear manner relative to the lower frame as a result of providing active suspension, and a concave face of the upper front portion is positioned inwardly towards the suspension relative to the upper edge of the lower front portion and is positioned such that the predetermined size of a gap between the upper edge of the lower front portion and the concave face of the upper front is maintained as the upper front portion is caused to move with the upper frame in a curvilinear motion relative to the lower front portion.
