Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, it has been found that the operating states of the used air supply device and the operating state of the used temperature control device are often not compatible with each other, so that the temperature control of the neck region sometimes leads to a loss of comfort for the user of the vehicle seat.
This impairment of comfort can be caused, for example, by unfavorable air temperature, unfavorable air flow and / or by excessive noise generation

Embodiment Construction

[0039] figure 1 Shown is a vehicle seat 50 with a device 10 for tempering the neck region of a user. The device 10 includes an air delivery device 12 , a temperature control device 16 and a control device 18 .

[0040] The air conveying device 12 is provided for conveying air to the tempering region 14 . To this end, air is sucked in from the surroundings of the vehicle seat 50 by means of a fan and conveyed to the temperature-control area 14 via the flow-guiding connections 24 , 26 . The headrest of the vehicle seat 50 has outlet openings in the neck region, through which air is blown out of the flow-guiding connections 24 , 26 into the temperature control region 14 .

[0041] The temperature control device 16 is provided for temperature control of the air to be delivered to the temperature control area 14 . For this purpose, the temperature control device 16 has a PTC heating resistor which, when energized, heats the air located in the surroundings of the PTC heating resi...
