Benefits of technology

[0007]The present invention has a second object to provide the system to prevent a tear of an occupant detecting sensor by imposition of an occupant detecting sensor to the opening edge of a ditch because of his weight at the time of sitting of an occupant when a film-shaped occupant detecting sensor used for an occupant posture detection system installed in a passenger seat is arranged on a surface of a seat pad. As a film-shaped occupant detection sensor used for an occupant posture detection system installed in a passenger seat is arranged on a surface of a seat pad, the presence of the

Example

[0017]A vehicle seat with a temperature control unit related to the present invention is composed of a plurality of ditches (10) on a surface of a seat pad made by a foaming material covered by a trim cover (2) as seen from FIG. 1, a plurality of ditches (10) covered with the second plate 8 having vents (B1) - - - , and a divergence department (10A) in a plurality of ditches (10) to diverge a heated or cooled air sent from the blower (3) covered with the first plate A. A trim cover (2) is made by a cloth used for a vehicle seat with a temperature control unit having breathability. As seen from FIG. 3, a ventilation aperture (11) is made so that a heated or cooled air sent from the blower (3) installed in the back of a seat pad (1) is sent to a surface of a seat pad (1). Both of the first plate A and second plate B are composed of plates of non-breathability consisting of synthetic resin plates, for example polyethylene terephthalate (PET thickness: 0.25 mm), having flexibility that ...

Abstract

A vehicle seat with a temperature control unit is composed of a plurality of ditches installed on a surface of a seat pad covered with the second plate having a vent and a divergence department on a surface of a seat pad covered with the first plate, wherein the presence of a plurality of ditches on a surface of a seat pad and a divergence department to diverge a heated or cooled air sent from a blower to each ditch give good ventilation of a heated or cooled air.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a vehicle seat with a temperature control unit, which sends a heated or cooled air from the back of a seat cushion or a seat back to the surface.[0003]2. Description of Prior Art[0004]Among various sorts of vehicle seats with a temperature control unit, there have been known a seat cushion and a seat back having a ditch on a surface of a seat pad made by a foaming material, wherein a heated or cooled air is sent from the blower located on the back of a seat back to a ditch through a ventilation aperture in a seat pad, and a heated or cooled air sent to a ditch is supplied from a trim cover bearing good breathability coating a seat pad to a surface of a seat cushion and a seat back (as disclosed from Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2001-327362 for example).[0005]In this conventional method a ditch is filled up by knitting in order to maintain good breathability, bec...
