[0112] Massage chair:

[0113] The massage chair in this embodiment of the application, as shown in FIG1, includes a chair body, several massage air bags 02, heating pads 03, ventilation bags 04, air supply device 05 and air supply device 06.

[0114] Massage airbags 02 are installed on the surface of the seat body, and heating pads 03 cover all massage airbags 02.

[0115] The ventilation bag 04 is provided with a second air hole and a first air hole 41, and the seat body is provided with at least one ventilation channel 11 that runs from front to back. The ventilation bag 04 is installed on the back of the seat body, and the first air hole 41 is connected to the ventilation channel 11 of the seat body.

[0116] The air supply port of the air supply device 05 is connected to the second air hole of the ventilation bag, and the air supply port of the air supply device 06 is connected to each massage air bag 02. Specifically, the seat body includes a backrest body 01 and a seat cushion body, and the massage air bags 02, heating pads 03, and ventilation bags 04 can be installed on the backrest body 01 and / or the seat cushion body. Figures 1-5 illustrate the example of massage air bags 02, heating pads 03, and ventilation bags 04 installed on the backrest body 01.

[0117] As shown in Figure 1, the backrest body 01 includes a backrest frame 12, a backrest foam 13, and a back spring 14. The backrest foam 13 is installed on the backrest frame 12, and the back spring 14 is installed behind the backrest foam to serve as lumbar support for the backrest foam 13.

[0118] Multiple massage air bags 02 are arranged at intervals on the front surface of the backrest foam 13. Depending on massage needs, the backrest body 01 can be divided into multiple areas, with different numbers of massage air bags 02 in each area, allowing for zoned control when the massage function is activated. Figure 1 shows an example of this zone division: the backrest body 01 is divided into a back area and a lumbar area. The back area has two massage air bags 02 arranged along the same horizontal line, while the lumbar area has six massage air bags 02 arranged in three rows of two.

[0119] The air supply device 06 can be an air pump. The air supply port of the air pump is connected to each massage air bag 02. Each massage air bag 02 is equipped with a switch valve in the air pipe between the air supply device 06 and the air supply device 06. By controlling the opening and closing of the switch valve, air can be supplied to different massage air bags 02.

[0120] The heating pad 03 covers the front of the massage air bag 02. When massaging, the heating pad 03 heats up, and the air supply device 06 inflates the massage air bag 02, causing it to bulge and press the heating pad 03 against the user's back. This allows for heat therapy during the massage, further enhancing the soothing effect of the massage.

[0121] Preferably, a flexible backplate 07 is also provided between the heating pad 03 and the massage air bag 02. The flexible backplate 07 can be made of flexible materials such as sponge. The flexible backplate 07 is provided between the heating pad 03 and the massage air bag 02 to reduce heat loss and maintain temperature balance. At the same time, it can also serve as a buffer between the massage air bag 02 and the user's back, improving the comfort during massage.

[0122] A ventilation channel 11 is installed inside the backrest foam 13. The ventilation channel 11 has multiple air inlets and multiple air outlets, with the air inlets and outlets located on the rear and front surfaces of the backrest foam, respectively. The first air hole 41 of the ventilation bag 04 is connected to each air inlet. The air supply device 05 supplies air to the second air hole of the ventilation bag 04. The airflow flows from the first air hole 41 into the air inlet of the ventilation channel 11 and finally flows out from the air outlet of the ventilation channel 11, thereby achieving the heat dissipation function of the backrest.

[0123] In other embodiments of the present invention, the air supply device 05 may also be an air suction device, which can collect heat on the front surface of the backrest foam, and the airflow flows into the ventilation channel 11 from the air inlet end of the front surface of the backrest foam, passes through the ventilation bag 04 and is finally blown out from the air outlet end of the air suction device, thereby realizing the directional airflow and delivery from the air inlet to the air outlet in the ventilation channel.

[0124] Optionally, an electronic controller for controlling the massage seat can be installed in the vehicle. The electronic controller is electrically connected to the massage air bag 02, heating pad 03, air supply device 05, air supply device 06, and a switching valve connected between the massage air bag 02 and the air supply device 06. The electronic controller is used to control the massage seat to perform massage. As an example, the electronic controller, switching valve, and other electronic control structures can be integrated into an ECU unit, requiring only circuit wiring within the ECU unit. The massage seat in this embodiment is used in a vehicle. The seat body is equipped with a massage air bag and a heating pad, enabling the massage area and heating area to work synchronously, simulating the therapeutic effect of hot stone massage. Furthermore, a ventilation channel 11 is provided on the seat body, and air is supplied to the ventilation channel 11 through the air supply device 05, realizing the seat's heat dissipation function. This allows for ventilation and cooling of the seat during or after the massage, enabling the seat to quickly adjust to a comfortable temperature and preventing the massage function from causing the seat to heat up and affecting seating comfort.

[0125] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the heating pad 03 includes a heating pad substrate 31 and at least one hot stone heating element 32 integrated in the heating pad substrate 31.

[0126] The heating pad substrate 31 is provided with at least one hot stone heating area, each hot stone heating area is provided with a hot stone heating element 32, and each hot stone heating area covers at least one massage air bag 02 in front of it.

[0127] Specifically, the heating pad substrate 31 can be made of breathable fabric, such as perforated non-woven fabric, breathable sponge, 3D mesh fabric, etc.; the hot stone heating element 32 can be woven or sewn into the heating pad substrate 31. The hot stone heating element 32 is made of hot stone heating wire, and different resistance wires can be used in different areas as needed.

[0128] The heating pad substrate 31 is divided into multiple hot stone heating zones, each zone is equipped with a hot stone heating element 32, and each hot stone heating element 32 corresponds to at least one massage air bag 02. Each hot stone heating element 32 can be independently activated. When the massage air bag 02 is inflated, the corresponding hot stone heating element 32 is activated. Figure 2 shows an example where each massage air bag 02 corresponds to one hot stone heating element 32, enabling accurate control of the correspondence between the massage area and the heating area.

[0129] In this embodiment, the heating pad 03 is provided with multiple hot stone heating elements 32, which correspond to at least one massage air bag 02. It can control the operation of different massage air bags 02 and hot stone heating elements 32 according to the massage process, simulate the hot stone massage therapy experience, and prevent energy waste caused by the heating of the entire heating pad 03.

[0130] In one embodiment, each hot stone heating zone is equipped with a pressure switch (not shown), which is electrically connected to the hot stone heating element 32 and the power supply of that hot stone heating zone. When the pressure switch detects pressure, it turns on the hot stone heating element 32 and the power supply.

[0131] In this embodiment, a pressure switch is installed in each heating zone of the hot stone. When the massage air bag 02 in that heating zone is inflated, the pressure switch detects the pressure and connects the heating element 32 and the power supply, causing the heating element 32 to begin heating. If the pressure switch does not detect pressure, even if the control device controls the heating element 32 to heat, the power supply to the heating element 32 cannot be turned on. Therefore, by setting a pressure switch, false triggering of the heating element 32 can be avoided.

[0132] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG1, the massage chair further includes a first heating element 07, which is uniformly covered on the heating pad 03.

[0133] Specifically, the first heating element 07 can be integrated into the heating pad 03. The first heating element 07 is evenly distributed on the heating pad 03 and covers the seat back. It is used to heat the seat back as a whole when the temperature is low and the hot stone massage function is turned off, thereby improving the comfort of sitting.

[0134] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 3-5, the front surface of the backrest body 01 is provided with a plurality of air bag mounting slots 131, and a massage air bag 02 is installed in each air bag mounting slot 131.

[0135] Each ventilation duct 11 includes an air inlet duct 111, at least one bent air duct 112 and at least one air outlet duct 113. The air inlet duct 111 is located on the rear side of the air bag mounting slot 131 and is connected to the air bag mounting slot 131. The air outlet duct 113 is located around the air bag mounting slot 131 and is connected to the air inlet duct 111 through the bent air duct 112.

[0136] After the massage air bag 02 is inflated, part of it extends into the air inlet duct 111 and blocks the bend duct 112.

[0137] Specifically, the backrest foam 13 has multiple air bag mounting slots 131, each housing a massage air bag 02. Each air bag mounting slot 131 has a stepped surface to support the massage air bag 02. The air bag mounting slots 131 are connected to the air inlet duct 111. Multiple air outlet ducts 113 are evenly distributed around the perimeter of the air bag mounting slots 131, and each air outlet duct 113 is connected to the air inlet duct 111 via a bent air duct 112.

[0138] As shown in Figure 4, when the massage air bag 02 is in the retracted state, the airflow from the air supply device 05 flows into the air inlet duct 111 through the ventilation bag 04, and after passing through the bent air duct 112, it is blown out from the front surface of the backrest through the air outlet duct 113. Since the air outlet duct 113 is evenly arranged around the air bag mounting groove 131, it can effectively dissipate heat from the massage air bag 02.

[0139] As shown in Figure 5, when the massage air bag 02 is in an inflated state, the massage air bag 02 blocks the connection between the air inlet duct 111 and the bent air duct 112. After the airflow from the air supply device 05 flows into the air inlet duct 111 through the ventilation bag 04, it cannot flow into the bent air duct 112. At this time, the backrest ventilation function cannot be realized.

[0140] In this embodiment of the application, the massage air bag 02 is configured to block the ventilation channel 11 when it expands, so that when the massage function is activated, the ventilation channel 11 of the massage area is blocked, and even when the air supply device 05 is working, the massage area cannot be ventilated, thus preventing heat loss during massage and affecting massage comfort.

[0141] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG6, the seat body includes a backrest body 01 and a seat cushion body, the ventilation bag 04 includes a backrest ventilation bag 42 and a seat cushion ventilation bag 43, and the heating pad 03 includes a backrest heating pad (not shown) and a seat cushion heating pad (not shown).

[0142] The backrest ventilation bag 42 is installed on the back of the backrest body 01, the backrest heating pad is installed on the surface of the backrest body 01, the seat cushion ventilation bag 43 is installed on the back of the seat cushion body, and the seat cushion heating pad is installed on the surface of the seat cushion body; the air supply device 05 includes a fan 51, a backrest air duct 52 and a seat cushion air duct 53. The fan 51 is connected to the backrest ventilation bag 42 through the backrest air duct 52, and the fan 51 is connected to the seat cushion ventilation bag 43 through the seat cushion air duct 53. The backrest air duct 52 and / or the seat cushion air duct 53 are also equipped with air duct switch components 54.

[0143] Specifically, the seat cushion body is equipped with a seat cushion ventilation bag 43 and a seat cushion heating pad. The seat cushion ventilation pad 08 is connected to the air supply device and is used to cool down the seat cushion when the seat cushion temperature is high. The seat cushion heating pad is used to heat up the seat cushion when the seat cushion temperature is low. This enables the adjustment of the seat cushion temperature. In conjunction with the heating and ventilation of the backrest ventilation bag 42 and the backrest heating pad, the temperature of the entire seat can be controlled, further improving the user's comfort.

[0144] The fan 51 can be an axial flow fan or a centrifugal fan. When the fan 51 is started, the airflow flows from one vent to another. Depending on the actual needs, the fan 51 can be controlled to rotate in the forward or reverse direction. One of the vents of the fan serves as an ambient air vent, and the other vent is connected to the backrest duct 52 and the seat cushion duct 53. The backrest duct 52 is connected to the backrest ventilation bag 42, and the seat cushion duct 53 is connected to the seat cushion ventilation bag 43.

[0145] The backrest air duct 52 and / or the seat cushion air duct 53 are also equipped with air duct switch 54. When the whole chair is ventilated and cooled, the air duct switch 54 is opened, and the airflow flows out from the fan 51 and can flow through the backrest air duct 52 and the seat cushion air duct 53 to the backrest ventilation bag 42 and the seat cushion ventilation bag 43 respectively.

[0146] For massage chairs that only provide back massage, i.e., massage air bags are only installed on the back of the chair, after the back massage, since the seat cushion area is not heated by hot stone massage, it is only necessary to ventilate and cool the backrest. At this time, the air duct switch 54 can be installed in the seat cushion air duct 53, and the air duct switch 54 can be closed to block the seat cushion air duct 53. After the airflow comes out from the fan 51, it can only pass through the backrest air duct 52 to ventilate and cool the backrest.

[0147] Similarly, for massage chairs that only have seat cushion massage, the air duct switch 54 can be installed in the backrest air duct 52. By controlling the air duct switch 54 to close, the backrest air duct 52 can be blocked. After the airflow comes out from the fan 51, it can only pass through the seat cushion air duct 53 to ventilate and cool the seat cushion.

[0148] Air duct switch 54 can also be installed in both the backrest air duct 52 and the seat cushion air duct 53, so that selective ventilation and cooling can be provided for the backrest and the seat cushion.

[0149] As an example, the air duct switch 54 can be an air bag, as shown in Figure 7. When the air bag is in a contracted state, the seat cushion air duct 53 is unobstructed and airflow can pass through it; as shown in Figure 8, when the air bag is inflated, it blocks the seat cushion air duct 53, and airflow cannot pass through.

[0150] As another example, the duct switch 54 can also be a one-way valve, as shown in Figure 8. Airflow from the fan 51 can flow to the seat cushion ventilation bag through the one-way valve, while airflow from the seat cushion ventilation pad cannot flow to the fan through the one-way valve. Based on this, it can be set that when ventilating and cooling the entire chair, the fan 51 is controlled to rotate in the forward direction, at which time the airflow can flow to the seat cushion ventilation bag 43 through the one-way valve; when ventilating and cooling the backrest, the fan 52 is controlled to rotate in the reverse direction, at which time the airflow cannot flow from the seat cushion ventilation bag 43 to the fan 51, thus realizing the opening and closing of the seat cushion duct 53.

[0151] As another example, the duct switch 54 can also be a switch valve.

[0152] In this embodiment, a seat cushion ventilation bag 43 and a seat cushion heating pad are provided to achieve heat dissipation and heating of the seat cushion, and the temperature of the seat cushion can be regulated. In addition, an air duct switch 54 is provided in the seat cushion air duct 53 to control the opening and closing of the seat cushion air duct 53, so that backrest ventilation can be achieved separately during massage.

[0153] Alternatively, two fans can be installed, one of which is connected to the backrest ventilation bag via a backrest duct, and the other is connected to the seat cushion ventilation bag via a seat cushion duct, thus eliminating the need for duct switch components.

[0154] As needed, the above technical solutions can be combined to achieve the best technical effect.

[0155] Seat control method:

[0156] The seat control method in this application embodiment is used for the massage seat in any of the foregoing embodiments, as shown in FIG10, and includes:

[0157] Step S101: In response to the hot stone massage command, obtain the current ambient temperature;

[0158] Step S102: If the current ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the first ambient temperature, then execute the first massage steps S103-S106;

[0159] The first massage step includes:

[0160] Step S103: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bag in sequence, and at the same time control the heating pad to heat up;

[0161] Step S104: When the massage time is detected to be greater than or equal to the preset massage time, control the air supply device to stop inflating and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0162] Step S105: Obtain real-time seat temperature;

[0163] Step S106: If the real-time seat temperature is greater than the first comfort temperature, control the air supply device to supply air to the ventilation bag until the real-time seat temperature is less than or equal to the first comfort temperature.

[0164] Step S107: If the massage stop condition is met, end the massage; otherwise, return to step S103.

[0165] The seat control method in this application embodiment can be used in an on-board electronic control unit (ECU), such as a vehicle's on-board computer, or it can be a control device installed in a massage seat. It is electrically connected to the air supply device, air supply device, heating pad, and other electronic control devices in the massage seat, and can control the operation of each electronic control device in the massage seat according to the seat control method of this application.

[0166] When a user sends a hot stone massage command, the system obtains the current ambient temperature and determines whether it is greater than or equal to a first ambient temperature. The first ambient temperature can be set according to the region where the vehicle is located. If the current ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the first ambient temperature, it is determined that it is currently summer, and the first massage step is used to perform the massage operation. In conjunction with ventilation and cooling of the backrest, the system can improve the comfort of the ride.

[0167] In the first massage step, the air supply device is first controlled to inflate the massage air bags in a preset order, while the heating pad is controlled to heat up, thus performing a hot stone massage operation. When the massage time reaches the preset time, the hot stone massage operation is paused, the air supply device is controlled to stop inflating, and the heating pad is controlled to stop heating. Then, the real-time seat temperature is acquired. If the real-time seat temperature is higher than the first comfort temperature, the air supply device is controlled to supply air to the backrest ventilation bag to ventilate and dissipate heat from the seat back until the real-time seat temperature is less than or equal to the first comfort temperature. Then, it is determined whether the massage stop condition is met. If it is met, the hot stone massage function is exited; if not, the first massage step is executed again.

[0168] The preset massage time is generally set to 3-10 minutes, but can be set according to actual needs; the first comfortable temperature can be set according to the area where the vehicle is located and user preferences, generally set to 30-38℃; the massage stop condition can be set to the cumulative massage time reaching the preset time value, or the number of massage cycles reaching the preset number of times value.

[0169] The seat control method in this embodiment determines that the current ambient temperature is summer temperature. During the hot stone massage, after each preset massage time, the backrest is ventilated and cooled to adjust the backrest temperature to the first comfortable temperature before continuing the massage. This avoids the problem of the backrest temperature becoming too high due to continuous massage, which affects the comfort of sitting.

[0170] In one embodiment, the backrest body includes a first region and a second region, and the heating pad includes a heating pad substrate and at least one hot stone heating element integrated in the heating pad substrate; the heating pad substrate is provided with at least one hot stone heating area, each hot stone heating area is provided with a hot stone heating element, and each hot stone heating area covers at least one massage air bag in front of it.

[0171] As an example, when the massage area is the backrest area, the first area can be set as the back area and the second area as the waist area.

[0172] The preset massage time includes a first massage time and a second massage time. The first massage steps are shown in Figure 11, and specifically include:

[0173] Step S111: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bags in the first area in the first inflation sequence, and at the same time control the heating element of the corresponding hot stone in the inflated massage air bag to heat up.

[0174] Step S112: After the first massage duration, control the air supply device to stop inflating, and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0175] Step S113: Obtain the first real-time seat temperature;

[0176] Step S114: If the first real-time seat temperature is greater than the first comfort temperature, control the air supply device to supply air to the ventilation bag until the first real-time seat temperature is less than or equal to the first comfort temperature.

[0177] Step S115: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bags in the second area in the second inflation sequence, and at the same time control the heating element of the corresponding hot stone in the inflated massage air bag to heat up.

[0178] Step S116: After the second massage duration, control the air supply device to stop inflating, and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0179] Step S117: Obtain the second real-time seat temperature;

[0180] Step S118: If the second real-time seat temperature is greater than the first comfort temperature, control the air supply device to supply air to the ventilation bag until the second real-time seat temperature is less than or equal to the first comfort temperature.

[0181] In this embodiment, the seat is divided into two massage areas. When performing hot stone massage, the first massage duration is controlled first, and the seat is ventilated and cooled to a first comfortable temperature. Then, the second massage duration is controlled second, and the seat is ventilated and cooled to a first comfortable temperature again, thus achieving zoned massage.

[0182] In one embodiment,

[0183] The seat control method is shown in Figure 12, and also includes:

[0184] Step S121: If the current ambient temperature is less than or equal to the second ambient temperature, and the second ambient temperature is less than the first ambient temperature, then execute the second massage steps S122-S125.

[0185] The second massage step includes:

[0186] Step S122: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bag in sequence, and at the same time control the heating pad to heat up;

[0187] Step S123: When the massage time is detected to be greater than or equal to the preset massage time, control the air supply device to stop inflating and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0188] Step S124: Obtain real-time seat temperature;

[0189] Step S125: If the real-time seat temperature is lower than the second comfort temperature, control the heating pad to heat up until the real-time seat temperature is greater than or equal to the second comfort temperature.

[0190] Step S126: If the massage stop condition is met, end the massage; otherwise, return to step S122.

[0191] Specifically, the second ambient temperature is lower than the first ambient temperature, and this setting can be customized based on the region where the vehicle is located, to determine if it is currently winter. When the user receives a hot stone massage command, if the current ambient temperature is less than or equal to the second ambient temperature, it is determined that it is currently winter, and the second massage step is executed to perform the massage operation, while the backrest is heated to improve seating comfort.

[0192] In the second massage step, the air supply device and the hot stone heating element in the heating pad are first controlled to perform hot stone massage. After the preset massage time, the hot stone massage operation is paused, and the heating pad is controlled to heat up (at this time, all hot stone heating elements can be controlled to heat up at the same time, or the first heating element can be controlled to heat up, or all hot stone heating elements and the first heating element can be controlled to heat up at the same time) until the real-time temperature of the seat is greater than the second comfort temperature. Then it is determined whether the massage stop condition is met. If it is met, the hot stone massage function is exited. If it is not met, the second massage step is executed again.

[0193] The second comfort temperature can be set according to the region where the vehicle is located and user preferences, and is generally set to 30-38℃.

[0194] The seat control method in this embodiment, when determining that the current ambient temperature is winter temperature, heats the seat after each preset massage time during the hot stone massage process, adjusting the seat temperature to the second comfortable temperature before continuing the massage. This avoids the problem of localized low temperature in the massage area during the massage process, which affects the comfort of sitting.

[0195] In one embodiment, the second massage step, as shown in Figure 13, specifically includes:

[0196] Step S131: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bags in the first area in the first inflation sequence, and at the same time control the heating element of the corresponding hot stone in the inflated massage air bag to heat up.

[0197] Step S132: After the first massage duration, control the air supply device to stop inflating, and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0198] Step S133: Obtain the first real-time seat temperature;

[0199] Step S134: If the first real-time seat temperature is lower than the second comfort temperature, control the heating pad to heat up until the first real-time seat temperature is greater than or equal to the second comfort temperature.

[0200] Step S135: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bags in the second area in the second inflation sequence, and at the same time control the heating element of the corresponding hot stone in the inflated massage air bag to heat up.

[0201] Step S136: After the second massage duration, control the air supply device to stop inflating, and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0202] Step S137: Obtain the second real-time seat temperature;

[0203] Step S138: If the second real-time seat temperature is lower than the second comfort temperature, control the heating pad to heat up until the second real-time seat temperature is greater than or equal to the second comfort temperature.

[0204] This application embodiment implements zoned massage, dividing the space into two massage areas. When performing hot stone massage, the first area is first massaged for a first massage duration, and the seat is heated to a first comfortable temperature. Then, the second area is massaged for a second massage duration, and the seat is heated to the first comfortable temperature again. It is possible to control all hot stone heating elements to heat up simultaneously, or to control the first heating element to heat up, or to control all hot stone heating elements and the first heating element to heat up simultaneously.

[0205] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG14, the seat control method further includes:

[0206] Step S141: If the current ambient temperature is lower than the first ambient temperature and higher than the second ambient temperature, then execute the third massage steps S142-S146.

[0207] The third massage step includes:

[0208] Step S142: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bag in sequence, and at the same time control the heating pad to heat up;

[0209] Step S143: When the massage time is detected to be greater than or equal to the preset massage time, control the air supply device to stop inflating and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0210] Step S144: Obtain real-time seat temperature;

[0211] Step S145: If the real-time seat temperature is greater than the third comfort temperature, control the air supply device to supply air to the ventilation bag until the real-time seat temperature equals the third comfort temperature.

[0212] Step S146: If the real-time seat temperature is lower than the third comfort temperature, control the heating pad to heat up until the real-time seat temperature equals the third comfort temperature.

[0213] Step S147: If the massage stop condition is met, end the massage; otherwise, return to step S142.

[0214] Specifically, when the current ambient temperature is lower than the first ambient temperature but higher than the second ambient temperature, it is determined that it is currently spring or autumn. At this time, the temperature is highly variable, and the seat temperature may be too high or too low. Therefore, it is necessary to determine whether to ventilate or heat the seat by judging the real-time seat temperature.

[0215] In the third massage step, the air supply device and the hot stone heating element in the heating pad are first controlled to perform hot stone massage. After a preset massage time, the hot stone massage operation is paused, and the real-time seat temperature is obtained. If it is determined that the real-time seat temperature is higher than the third comfort temperature, the air supply device is controlled to ventilate and dissipate heat to adjust the seat temperature to the third comfort temperature. If it is determined that the real-time seat temperature is lower than the third comfort temperature, the heating pad is controlled to heat to adjust the seat temperature to the third comfort temperature. Specifically, all hot stone heating elements can be controlled to heat simultaneously, the first heating element can be controlled to heat, or all hot stone heating elements and the first heating element can be controlled to heat simultaneously. Finally, it is determined whether the massage stop condition is met. If it is met, the hot stone massage function is exited; if it is not met, the third massage step is executed again.

[0216] Preferably, the third comfort temperature can be set to a comfort temperature range. When the real-time temperature of the seat is greater than the upper limit temperature value in the comfort temperature range, the air supply device is controlled to ventilate and dissipate heat to adjust the seat temperature to the comfort temperature range. When the real-time temperature of the seat is less than the lower limit temperature value in the comfort temperature range, the heating pad is controlled to heat the seat to adjust the seat temperature to the comfort temperature range.

[0217] The seat control method in this embodiment determines that the current ambient temperature is in spring or autumn. During the hot stone massage, after each preset massage time, the seat is ventilated or heated according to the real-time temperature of the seat. The seat temperature is adjusted to the third comfortable temperature before continuing the massage. This can avoid the problem of the backrest temperature being too high or too low during the massage, which affects the comfort of the seat.

[0218] In one embodiment, the third massage step, as shown in Figure 15, specifically includes:

[0219] Step S151: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bags in the first area in the first inflation sequence, and at the same time control the heating element of the corresponding hot stone in the inflated massage air bag to heat up.

[0220] Step S152: After the first massage duration, control the air supply device to stop inflating, and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0221] Step S153: Obtain the first real-time seat temperature;

[0222] Step S154: If the first real-time seat temperature is greater than the third comfort temperature, control the air supply device to supply air to the ventilation bag until the first real-time seat temperature equals the third comfort temperature.

[0223] Step S155: If the first real-time seat temperature is lower than the third comfort temperature, control the heating pad to heat up until the first real-time seat temperature equals the third comfort temperature.

[0224] Step S156: Control the air supply device to inflate the massage air bags in the second area in the second inflation sequence, and at the same time control the heating element of the corresponding hot stone in the inflated massage air bag to heat up.

[0225] Step S157: After the second massage duration, control the air supply device to stop inflating, and at the same time control the heating pad to stop heating;

[0226] Step S158: Obtain the second real-time seat temperature;

[0227] Step S159: If the second real-time seat temperature is greater than the third comfort temperature, control the air supply device to supply air to the ventilation bag until the second real-time seat temperature equals the third comfort temperature.

[0228] Step S1510: If the second real-time seat temperature is lower than the third comfort temperature, control the heating pad to heat up until the second real-time seat temperature equals the third comfort temperature.

[0229] Specifically, it is divided into two massage areas. When performing hot stone massage, the first massage duration is controlled in the first area. Then, the seat is ventilated or heated to the third comfortable temperature based on the real-time seat temperature. After that, the second massage duration is controlled in the second area. Then, the seat is ventilated or heated to the third comfortable temperature based on the real-time seat temperature, thus realizing zoned massage.

[0230] The seat control method in this embodiment, as shown in Figure 16, further includes:

[0231] Step S161: In response to the vehicle wake-up command, obtain the real-time ambient temperature and the third real-time seat temperature;

[0232] Step S162: If the real-time ambient temperature is greater than the first ambient temperature and the third real-time seat temperature is greater than the first comfort temperature, then control the air supply device to supply air to the ventilation bag until the third real-time seat temperature is less than or equal to the first comfort temperature.

[0233] Step S163: If the real-time ambient temperature is lower than the second ambient temperature and the third real-time seat temperature is lower than the second comfort temperature, then control the heating pad to heat up until the third real-time seat temperature is greater than or equal to the second comfort temperature.

[0234] In this embodiment of the application, upon receiving a vehicle wake-up command, the real-time ambient temperature and the third real-time seat temperature are obtained for judgment:

[0235] If the real-time ambient temperature is higher than the first ambient temperature, it is considered to be summer. If the third real-time seat temperature is higher than the first comfort temperature, the air supply device is controlled to supply air to the ventilation bags, which may include backrest ventilation bags and seat cushion ventilation bags, to adjust the seat temperature to less than or equal to the first comfort temperature.

[0236] If the real-time ambient temperature is lower than the second ambient temperature, it is assumed to be winter. If the third real-time seat temperature is lower than the second comfort temperature, the heating pad is controlled to heat up. The heating pad can include a backrest heating pad and a seat cushion heating pad. The seat is then adjusted to a temperature greater than or equal to the second comfort temperature.

[0237] In this embodiment of the application, when a vehicle wake-up command is received, the seat is adjusted to a comfortable temperature by selecting ventilation or heating based on the real-time ambient temperature and the third real-time seat temperature, so that the seat temperature is moderate when the user gets in the car, thus improving the user's riding experience.

[0238] In one embodiment, the seat control method, in response to a hot stone massage command, further includes:

[0239] If an external massage device is detected, a massage start command is sent to the external massage device.

[0240] The external massage device can communicate with the vehicle's electronic control unit via Bluetooth, wireless network, or data cable. Upon receiving a hot stone massage command to control the vehicle seat, the system checks if an external massage device is connected. If detected, a massage start command is sent to the external massage device to synchronize its massage function. The external massage device can be a neck massager, head massager, or other massager for different body parts. This embodiment enhances massage comfort by sending a massage start command to the external massage device to synchronize its massage with the vehicle's massage seat.
