[0047] Please refer to Figures 1-13 A structure diagram of a fan for ventilating a seat is provided in the application, comprising:

[0048] A fan mechanism, the fan mechanism having an air inlet 1 for absorbing air volume and an air outlet 2 for discharging air volume;

[0049] A connecting piece 3, the connecting piece 3 having a first connecting port 31 and a second connecting port 32 in communication with the first connecting port 31; the second connecting port 32 is used for being in communication with a ventilation mechanism of the seat; the connecting piece 3 has an air inlet working position and an air outlet working position; when the connecting piece 3 is in the air inlet working position, the first connecting port 31 is in communication with the air inlet 1, so that the air flow in the ventilation mechanism flows from the air inlet 1 to the fan mechanism and is discharged from the air outlet 2; when the connecting piece 3 is in the air outlet working position, the first connecting port 31 is in communication with the air outlet 2, so that the air flow in the fan mechanism flows to the ventilation mechanism;

[0050] At least one driving mechanism, the driving mechanism being connected with the connecting piece 3, for driving the connecting piece 3 to switch to the air inlet working position or the air outlet working position.

[0051] In some application scenarios, the ventilation mechanism comprises, for example, a ventilation structure (such as a ventilation bag or a ventilation groove) arranged on the surface of the seat and a guide air passage arranged in the seat and in communication with the ventilation structure, the guide air passage being in communication with the second connecting port 32; when the fan for seat ventilation is working, the air circulation between the human body and the seat can be improved, so that the human body remains dry and comfortable; for example, as shown in Figure 14 The ventilation mechanism is a ventilation bag 8, the ventilation bag 8 is connected with the connecting piece 3, and a ventilation hole 81 is arranged on the ventilation bag 8;

[0052] In order to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art, Figures 15-18 A schematic diagram of the fan for seat ventilation provided by the present application is shown in the figure; as shown in Figures 15-16 When the connecting piece 3 is in the air inlet working position, the air flow enters the fan mechanism through the through hole 101 on the seat body 10, the ventilation hole 81 of the air bag 8 and the pipeline 11 in sequence; as shown in Figures 17-18 When the connecting piece 3 is in the air outlet working position, the air flow in the fan mechanism passes through the pipeline 11 and the ventilation hole 81 of the air bag 8 in sequence and is finally output through the through hole 101 of the seat body 10.

[0053] In some application scenarios, the second connecting port 32 is connected with the ventilation mechanism of the seat through a pipeline;

[0054] For example, the pipeline is connected by a plurality of connection units in sequence, a sealing layer is formed outside the connection unit, the sealing layer allows the air flow to flow in the pipeline, a wind path is arranged in the middle of the connection unit, and hinge structures are arranged at both ends of the connection unit, the hinge structures are used for hingedly connecting adjacent connection units, and the plurality of connection units are hingedly connected in sequence, so that a chain air duct is formed between the wind paths.

[0055] For example, the pipeline is a flexible tubular structure, such as a corrugated pipe or a rubber pipe.

[0056] In some application scenarios, the driving mechanism is installed on the housing 5 at the driving end and connected with the connecting piece 3 at the driven end; in other application scenarios, the driving end and the driven end of the driving mechanism can also be interchanged.

[0057] In the prior art, the ventilation function is usually integrated on the seat, and the ventilation mechanism is used to blow air to the surface of the seat or to suck air from the surface of the seat to achieve cooling and air circulation. However, in the blowing mode, it is easy to blow the cold and wet air to the human body, and the human body is prone to discomfort in the waist and back after long-term use; in the air suction mode, the cooling efficiency is low, and it takes a long time to achieve the cooling effect; a single fan cannot be arranged in the blowing and suction modes at the same time on the seat.

[0058] Based on this, the inventors of the case have developed a fan for seat ventilation, which first discards the traditional ventilation mode (i.e. single blowing, sucking air mode), but combines the blowing and sucking air mode, and in the use process, the fan first performs the air suction treatment, so that the wet and cold air is discharged, and then the air blowing is performed, to avoid the discomfort of the human body; secondly, the structure is optimized, so that the fan has the functions of air suction and air blowing, and has the advantages of simple and ingenious structure, low space occupancy, and convenient control.

[0059] In order to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art, the working principle of the fan for seat ventilation provided in the present application is as follows:

Thus, it is beneficial to avoid the discomfort of the human body (especially for the waist and back), and to improve the comfort of the passenger. In addition, the system can also be controlled to continuously switch between the air suction mode and the air blowing mode (the connecting piece is continuously switched between the air inlet working position and the air outlet working position) in the above process, to further avoid the long-term immersion of the wet and cold air into the human body. At the same time, in the fan for seat ventilation provided in the present application, the fan mechanism, the connecting piece 3 and the driving mechanism cooperate with each other to switch the air path relationship between the fan mechanism input and the seat ventilation mechanism output, so that the air suction and blowing functions can be realized by only one fan mechanism, and the structure is simple, the space occupancy is low, and the control is convenient.
