An air conditioning device for a vehicle seat, the air conditioning device includes: at least one flow generator to generate an air flow; at least one air inlet opening fluidically connected to a flow inlet of the flow generator to draw in air to be temperature-controlled; at least one air outlet opening fluidically connected to a flow outlet of the flow generator to eject the temperature-controlled air; a temperature-control device configured to control a temperature of the air drawn in through the at least one air inlet opening prior to the air being ejected from the at least one air outlet opening; and a temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature of the air drawn into the at least one air inlet opening and to adapt a heating power of the temperature-control device to the detected temperature of the drawn-in air.

There is provided a vehicle seat (car seat) comprising a seat cushion pad (seat body) having an air passage connected to an outlet port (114), and a blower having an inlet port (113) and configured to feed air taken in through the inlet port (113) to the air passage. The blower (100) is located on the lower side of the seat cushion pad (seat body) that is opposite to an occupant's side on which an occupant is to be seated, and the inlet port (113) is directed upward that is a direction toward the seat cushion pad (seat body).

A wire harness connected to a sensor is positioned on a back surface of a pad of a vehicle seat supported by a panel. The vehicle seat (1) includes a panel (4); a pad (11, 51) supported by the panel; a skin material (12, 52) covering a front surface of the pad; and a sensor (32) provided between the front surface of the pad and the skin material for acquiring information on a seat occupant, wherein the pad is provided with a through hole (35, 58) passed from the front surface of the pad to a back surface of the pad, and a recess (45, 61) formed in the back surface of the pad and connected to the through hole, the wire harness connected to the sensor extending in the through hole and the recess.

A car seat includes an air outlet located in a seat upper portion (a portion provided above a seat cushion and including a seat back and a headrest) to let out air therethrough; an air inlet located in the seat upper portion to draw in air therethrough; at least one fan configured to produce a current of air flowing from the air outlet toward the air inlet at a front side of the seat upper portion; and a scenting device configured to scent air to be forced out through the air outlet. The air outlet and the air inlet are located in such positions that at least part of the headrest is positioned between the air outlet and the air inlet in a direction from the air outlet toward the air inlet as viewed from a front side.

An occupant support for a vehicle includes a seat bottom and a seat back. At least one of the seat bottom and the seat back includes an integrated article-drying system configured to dry articles.

An easy entrance/exit system for a vehicle includes a vehicle seat, a pad, a pad-side magnetic device, and a seat-side magnet. The vehicle seat includes a seat base. The pad is supported atop the seat base for swiveling about a pivot point. The pad-side magnetic device is coupled to the pad at the pivot point. The seat-side magnet is within the seat base at the pivot point. The seat-side magnet is configured to apply a magnetic field to the pad-side magnetic device to govern swiveling of the pad about the pivot point.

The present invention relates to a temperature-controlled child support and transfer device for cooling and warming a child positioned in the seat. More specifically, the seat has a Peltier unit for controlling temperature of air blowing onto the seat and has a fan unit for blowing air. The seat has a power source, a temperature control to control temperature and a fan control to control speed of the fan. In another embodiment, the seat has heating grids for providing heat to the seat and a fan unit coupled to a conduit for blowing cool air onto the seat. The seat can be used with vehicle, stroller, swing, crib, or bassinet.

A vehicular air conditioner includes a first outlet that blows a conditioned air frontward to flow past a neck part of an occupant on a seat, and a second outlet that is provided below the first outlet and blows the conditioned air upward to flow past an armpit part of the occupant. The second outlet blows the conditioned air to merge with the conditioned air blown from the first outlet. The second outlet blows the conditioned air with an airflow volume larger than an airflow volume of the conditioned air from the first outlet such that the conditioned air blown from the second outlet guides the conditioned air blown from the first outlet to flow along a face of the occupant.

A seat component for a vehicle seat having at least one air outlet unit configured to be connected to an air supply. In order to be able to adapt a ventilation function of the vehicle seat individually to a contact area between the vehicle seat and a person sitting thereon, the air outlet unit has at least one flexible air guide funnel and at least one diaphragm valve which is arranged within the at least one flexible air guide funnel and which is connected to the at least one flexible air guide funnel in such a way that the diaphragm valve closes the air guide funnel when the air guide funnel is not deformed, and at least partially opens the air guide funnel when the air guide funnel is deformed.

A distribution system for a vehicle seat The distribution system includes one or more plenums that each have a cap layer, a support layer, and an open space formed between the cap layer and the support layer. The support layer is a generally rigid material and the cap layer is a generally flexible material that is connected to the support layer. The open space includes one or more baffles that assist in directing fluid between a blower connected to the one or more plenums and one or more ventilation holes.
