A vehicle seating assembly includes a cushion assembly having a plurality of closed base cells disposed on a seat frame. A plurality of trim cells are disposed on the base cells. An adjustable seatback support panel is disposed behind the base cells. A static base is disposed behind the support panel. Side pivot cells are disposed between the seatback support panel and the base cells that allow for lateral flexibility of a seatback surface relative to the support panel.

A vehicle seating assembly includes a frame. A seat and seatback are disposed on the frame. A seating cushion assembly includes a plurality of closed base cells disposed on the frame. Each base cell includes a fixed volume of fluid disposed therein. A plurality of trim cells are disposed on the base cells and include a variable volume of fluid disposed therein. The trim cells are in communication with a fluid pump. An adjustable seatback support panel is disposed behind the base cells and is pivotally coupled to the frame. A static base is disposed behind the support panel. An adjustable reclination cell is disposed between the support panel and the static base. The reclination cell is adjustable between an inflated condition that pivots the support panel forward and a deflated condition that pivots the support panel rearward, thereby altering the reclination angle of the seatback relative to the seat.

A vehicle seating assembly is provided that includes a seatback and a support layer coupled to a seat frame. The support layer includes a plurality of sealed support cells and defines a plurality of attachment points. The support cells have a first air pressure and a comfort layer positioned over the support layer. The comfort layer includes a plurality of sealed comfort cells having a second air pressure. The support layer, comfort layer, and cover stock are secured to the seat frame via the attachment points.

A comfort assembly for a vehicle seat cushion, the comfort system includes a carrier having a thermal device; a spacer layer attached to the B-side of the carrier; and an effector device attached to the spacer layer so that the spacer layer is between the effector device and the B-side of the carrier; the effector device is attached to the carrier before the comfort assembly is installed onto an A-surface of the cushion of the vehicle seat.

A vehicle seat includes a seatback having a coverstock defining a seat surface with a flexible lower region and a flexible upper region. The seatback further has a compressible upper bladder beneath the coverstock upper region and a compressible inflation bladder positioned beneath the coverstock lower region and in fluidic communication with the upper bladder. A first fixed quantity of a flowable medium is contained in and is partially transferrable between the upper bladder and the inflation bladder.

A vehicle and seat for the vehicle that provides a cushion. The seat includes a seat back forming an open volume, a carrier plate disposed on the seat back within the open volume, an air bladder, an air reservoir disposed on the carrier plate for inflating the air bladder, wherein the air reservoir is disposed on the carrier plate within the open volume of the seat back and is configured to control an air pressure within the air bladder. A pump is disposed within the open volume and is configured to control a flow of ambient air into the air reservoir.
