[0029] At present, with the increasing popularity of self-driving tours and outdoor activities, the effective use of in-car space has become the key to improving user experience. Although the rear seats of traditional vehicles can be used for short rest, their comfort is limited, especially when traveling long distances or camping in the wild, they cannot meet users' needs for a high-quality rest environment. Most of the in-car mattresses on the current market are external, which are cumbersome to install and store, and take up extra space in the car.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, specifically, the seat assembly 10 includes a seat 11 and an air cushion 12, and the seat 11 can be rotatably arranged on the vehicle body, wherein the seat 11 can be a rear seat 11 of the vehicle, and the rear seat 11 can be rotated toward the cockpit. A pivot axis extending in the width direction of the vehicle can be arranged on the vehicle body, and the seat 11 can be rotated along the pivot axis. It should be noted that the length direction of the vehicle can be the X direction of the vehicle, the width direction of the vehicle can be the Y direction of the vehicle, and the height direction of the vehicle can be the Z direction of the vehicle.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air cushion 12 can be constructed as an inflatable mattress, and the air cushion 12 can have a contracted state and an expanded state. In the contracted state, the air cushion 12 is entirely located in the accommodating cavity 111, and there is no gas inside the air cushion 12. The air cushion 12 is in a compressed or folded state. At this time, the seat 11 can be in an upright state for the user to sit on. In the expanded state, the seat 11 can be rotated to a horizontal position of the vehicle through a pivot shaft, and the air cushion 12 can be laid on the back of the seat 11. Gas can be stored inside the air cushion 12, so that the air cushion 12 can be used for the user to rest. Therefore, the air cushion 12 can be in a contracted state when the user does not need it, and the air cushion 12 can be located in the accommodating cavity 111, without occupying additional space in the vehicle, meeting the user's usage needs.

[0032] In short, the seat assembly 10 for a vehicle of the present application includes a seat 11 and an air cushion 12. The air cushion 12 has a retracted state and an expanded state. The air cushion 12 can be in a retracted state when not in use. The air cushion 12 is accommodated inside the seat 11, does not occupy space in the vehicle, does not affect the normal riding function, and keeps the vehicle compartment clean and beautiful. When the user needs to rest, the air cushion 12 can switch to an expanded state and provide a rest area for the user to meet user needs. Therefore, the seat assembly 10 achieves a perfect integration of the seat 11 and rest facilities, improves the space utilization rate in the vehicle and the rest comfort of passengers.

[0033] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the seat 11 also has a seat frame 112 and a sponge member, the seat frame 112 can be connected to the vehicle body as a supporting structure of the seat 11, and the side of the seat frame 112 facing away from the cockpit can define a receiving cavity 111, and the air cushion 12 can be connected to the seat frame 112, so that the air cushion 12 is installed in the seat 11 to limit the position of the air cushion 12. The sponge member can be arranged on the side of the seat frame 112 facing the cockpit, and the sponge member can be located at the backrest of the seat 11 for the user to sit normally.

[0034] Furthermore, an air cushion mounting plate is provided in the accommodating cavity 111, and the air cushion mounting plate can be detachably connected to the seat frame 112. Optionally, the air cushion mounting plate and the seat frame 112 are detachably connected by bolts and threads, or the air cushion mounting plate and the seat frame 112 are detachably connected by snapping or plugging. The air cushion 12 can be provided on the side of the air cushion mounting plate away from the seat frame 112, and the air cushion 12 can be installed on the air cushion mounting plate. By detachably connecting the air cushion mounting plate and the seat frame 112, the air cushion 12 can be easily replaced when it is damaged or needs to be cleaned, thereby providing convenience for users.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, the seat assembly 10 also includes an inflation device 13 and an inflation pipeline 14. The inflation device 13 can be accommodated in the accommodating cavity 111, and the inflation device 13 can be connected to the seat frame 112, wherein the inflation device 13 can be connected to the inner space of the air cushion 12, and the inflation device 13 can inflate the inner space of the air cushion 12 to switch the air cushion 12 from a contracted state to an expanded state. The inflation device 13 can be constructed as an inflation pump, which occupies a small space and usually has an efficient airflow output, which can reach the required inflation pressure in a short time, thereby realizing rapid inflation of the air cushion 12.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, the inflatable device 13 can realize fully automatic inflation or manual inflation. For example, when the user needs to start the air cushion 12, the user selects "rear rest mode" on the central control screen, the backrest of the seat 11 is automatically reclined, and the inflatable device 13 starts working, and the air cushion 12 can be inflated to a suitable hardness within a few minutes. Not limited to this, the user can also connect a portable inflatable device to inflate through the manual inflation port on the side of the seat 11. After the user has rested, the user can also control or manually deflate quickly through the central control screen, and reset the backrest of the seat 11 to restore it to a normal riding state. Optionally, the seat assembly 10 can also be provided with a deflation device, which can make the deflation process of the air cushion 12 equally fast. The one-button deflation or automatic emptying design makes it simple and efficient to restore the seat 11 to its original state.

[0037] Furthermore, the inflation pipeline 14 can be located in the accommodating cavity 111, and the inflation pipeline 14 can be connected to the seat frame 112, one end of the inflation pipeline 14 can be connected to the inflation device 13, and the other end of the inflation pipeline 14 can be connected to the internal space of the air cushion 12. When the inflation device 13 is working, the gas output by the inflation device 13 can be guided to the internal space of the air cushion 12 through the inflation pipeline 14, so that the air cushion 12 is inflated to an appropriate hardness.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a shielding member 15 is further provided on the side of the seat 11 facing away from the cockpit. The shielding member 15 can close the accommodating cavity 111. An open end 151 is formed on the shielding member 15. The open end 151 can be arranged opposite to the air cushion 12. Specifically, the shielding member 15 can be constructed as a cushion to close the back of the seat 11 to ensure the overall aesthetics of the seat 11. The open end 151 can be constructed as a "U"-shaped opening to ensure that when the air cushion 12 is deflated and switched from the expanded state to the contracted state, the shielding member 15 can be reset and cover the seat 11. Further, the air cushion 12 can be constructed as a plurality of air cushions 12 spaced apart in the width direction, and the open end 151 can be constructed as a plurality of air cushions 12. The plurality of open ends 151 can be arranged one-to-one with the plurality of air cushions 12. The number of air cushions 12 can be set according to the needs of the user and is not limited here.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present application, the air cushion 12 can adopt an ergonomic curved surface design, the material of the air cushion 12 can be selected from high-quality PVC or TPU fabrics that are wear-resistant, breathable, and pressure-resistant, and the air cushion 12 can be filled with a high-elastic sponge layer to ensure good support and comfort. The surface of the air cushion 12 can be equipped with soft cushions, pillows and other accessories to further enhance the user's rest experience.

[0040] Furthermore, the air cushion 12 has a wear-resistant layer formed on one side of the seat 11 in the unfolded state. The wear-resistant layer has the functions of anti-wear and anti-extrusion, preventing the air cushion 12 from being worn out due to long-term use. The air cushion 12 also has functions such as overpressure protection and air leakage detection to ensure the safety of the air cushion 12 during use. After the air cushion 12 is completely deflated, it can be easily folded back to its original position and locked to restore the normal shape of the seat 11. The material of the air cushion 12 can also have waterproof and anti-fouling properties, making it easy to clean and maintain the air cushion 12.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present application, the seat 11 may be equipped with an electronic control unit (ECU), and the automatic inflation mode may be activated through the in-vehicle control system (such as the central control screen, voice assistant or physical button). After the user selects inflation, the ECU instructs the inflation device 13 to work and quickly inflate the air cushion 12 to a preset pressure value, thereby achieving one-button automatic inflation. The inflation of the air cushion 12 may also have a manual mode, which is equipped with a dedicated inflation valve and a portable inflation device, so as to facilitate the inflation of the air cushion 12 without power supply.
