Abstract

This application discloses an active cooling thermo-mechanical memory alloy controller and a vehicle seat pneumatic system, including a controller housing with at least one first port and at least one second port; a valve body structure disposed inside the controller housing for charging and decharging pneumatic components, the valve body structure having a valve core and a thermo-mechanical memory alloy wire that drives the valve core to move; an airflow source disposed inside the controller housing, which guides airflow from the first port into the controller housing during operation, and flows through the thermo-mechanical memory alloy wire to dissipate heat from the thermo-mechanical memory alloy wire; by activating the airflow source, airflow is guided to circulate between the first and second ports to dissipate heat from the thermo-mechanical memory alloy wire, effectively improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the thermo-mechanical memory alloy wire, preventing the thermo-mechanical memory alloy wire from failing or being damaged due to excessive temperature, expanding its application scenarios, and extending its service life.
