Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of seating technology, and more particularly to a ventilation device and a seat. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of production levels, automobiles, ships, trains, high-speed trains, airplanes, and other transportation devices have brought many conveniences to people's lives, work, and study, occupying an important position in people's travel. As people's living standards improve, their demands for travel comfort are becoming increasingly strong.

[0003] One important factor affecting ride comfort is the seat's heat dissipation. Most seat technologies use fans as an air source, dissipating heat by blowing or drawing air into the seat. However, the airflow from fans is limited, resulting in a slow and ineffective cooling effect, failing to quickly lower the seat temperature. Utility Model Content

[0004] The embodiments of this application aim to provide a ventilation device and a seat, so as to at least improve the problems of poor heat dissipation, slow heat dissipation efficiency, and inability to cool down the seat quickly.

[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the embodiments of this application adopt the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a ventilation device, which includes a ventilation pad, a ventilation duct, an air source, and a controller. The ventilation pad includes a sealing sleeve and a breathable layer. The sealing sleeve has multiple first ventilation holes and at least one second ventilation hole, and the breathable layer is enclosed within the sealing sleeve. The ventilation duct includes a constriction section, a throat section, and an expansion section connected in sequence. One end of the constriction section, away from the throat section, communicates with the second ventilation hole. The ventilation duct also includes a conduit, one end of which is disposed within the constriction section and its port faces the expansion section. The air source provides a continuous airflow, and the other end of the air source is connected to the conduit. The controller controls the opening and closing of the air passage between the air source and the conduit.

[0007] In some embodiments, the conduit includes an inlet section and an outlet section, the inlet section being disposed in the wall of the constriction section, the outlet section communicating with the inlet section, the outlet section being located within the constriction section and its port facing the expansion section.

[0008] In some embodiments, the inlet section extends radially along the constriction section, and the conduit portion is curved to connect with the inlet section.

[0009] In some embodiments, the inlet section includes a narrowing portion, the inner diameter of which gradually decreases along the radial direction of the contraction section.

[0010] In some embodiments, the ejection section coincides with the axis of the contraction section.

[0011] In some embodiments, the ejection section is parallel to the centerline of the ventilation duct.

[0012] In some embodiments, the contraction rate of the contraction segment gradually decreases along the direction from the contraction segment toward the throat segment.

[0013] In some embodiments, the ventilation duct further includes a straight pipe section, one end of which is connected to the second ventilation hole, and the other end of which is connected to the end of the contraction section opposite to the throat section.

[0014] In some embodiments, the ventilation pad has multiple second ventilation holes, and the ventilation device includes multiple ventilation pipes. The controller is connected to multiple of the pipes, and the controller is used to independently control the opening and closing of the air passage between the air source and any one of the pipes.

[0015] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a seat, the seat including the ventilation device as described in any of the preceding claims, wherein at least one of the seat portion, backrest, armrest portion and leg portion of the seat is provided with the ventilation pad, and the first ventilation hole faces the seating space of the seat.

[0016] The ventilation device and seat of this application embodiment, when the air source introduces gas into the duct and sprays it from the contraction section towards the expansion section, can generate negative pressure in the contraction section to draw in more gas. This small airflow drives a large airflow, which is beneficial for enhancing the heat dissipation effect and improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the seat, allowing the seat to cool down quickly. Furthermore, the air source and controller do not need to be located inside the seat, which helps to reduce the size of the seat and reduce seat noise.

[0017] The seat in this embodiment can achieve controllable ventilation area and ventilation intensity according to the needs of passengers, which helps to improve the comfort of passengers.

[0018] The above description is merely an overview of the technical solution of this application. In order to better understand the technical means of this application and to implement it in accordance with the contents of the specification, and to make the above and other objects, features and advantages of this application more obvious and understandable, specific embodiments of this application are given below.

[0039] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0040] Example 1:

[0041] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a ventilation device 100, which includes a ventilation pad 1, a ventilation pipe 2, an air source 3, and a controller 4. The ventilation pad 1 is installed inside a seat to blow or draw air into the seat for heat dissipation. The ventilation pipe 2 is connected to the air source 3. When the air source 3 supplies gas to the ventilation pipe 2, a negative pressure is created within the ventilation pipe 2, allowing one end of the ventilation pipe 2 to draw in gas and the other end to discharge gas. One end of the ventilation pipe 2 is connected to the ventilation pad 1, enabling blowing or drawing air into the ventilation pad 1. The air source 3 provides a continuous airflow, such as an air compressor, which provides compressed air to supply the ventilation pipe 2. The controller 4 is connected to the air source 3 and the ventilation pipe 2. The controller 4 controls the flow of air between the air source 3 and the ventilation pipe 2, i.e., controls whether gas is supplied to the ventilation pipe 2. For example, the controller 4 is installed on the pipe between the air source 3 and the ventilation pipe 2, and the controller 4 can be a solenoid valve or include multiple solenoid valves.

[0042] It should be noted that the ventilation pad 1 described above is installed inside the seat only as an example to illustrate its heat dissipation effect on the seat. The ventilation pad 1 can also be installed on other external devices to ventilate or dissipate heat from the external devices.

[0043] For the ventilation pad 1 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The ventilation pad 1 includes a sealing sleeve 11 and a breathable partition 12 enclosed inside the sealing sleeve 11. One side of the sealing sleeve 11 has multiple first ventilation holes 111, and the other side has multiple second ventilation holes 112. Alternatively, the sealing sleeve 11 may have only one second ventilation hole 112. The breathable partition 12 is mesh-like, allowing airflow to pass through it and providing support to prevent the fluid passage from being blocked when the sealing sleeve 11 is under pressure.

[0044] The first ventilation hole 111 faces the seating space of the seat, which is used for passenger seating. When the first ventilation hole 111 inhales or blows air, it can remove air from the surrounding area of ​​the passenger, thereby dissipating heat from the seating space. The ventilation pad 1 is located inside the seat or is part of the seat. When the first ventilation hole 111 inhales or blows air, it also dissipates heat from the seat.

[0045] The seating space includes not only the semi-enclosed space formed by the seat and backrest, but also the space in which the passenger moves while seated. This includes, for example, the space for the passenger's legs and surrounding area, the space for arm movement, and the space for head movement.

[0046] The multiple first ventilation holes 111 may include multiple first ventilation holes 111 of different shapes and sizes, thereby providing different intake and exhaust effects. For example, one of the first ventilation holes 111 on the sealing sleeve 11 may be circular, another may be rectangular, and yet another may be triangular, etc. For example, the sealing sleeve 11 may have multiple circular first ventilation holes 111, one of which has a diameter of 1 cm, another has a diameter of 2 cm, and yet another has a diameter of 3 cm, etc.

[0047] In some embodiments, the number of first ventilation holes 111 is greater than the number of second ventilation holes 112. That is, the ventilation pad 1 has a diversion function, which helps to form a larger number of air intake or air outlets in the seat, thereby improving the uniformity of air blowing or inhaling from the seat to the passenger.

[0048] The second ventilation hole 112 is positioned opposite to the first ventilation hole 111, meaning that the first ventilation hole 111 and the second ventilation hole 112 are located on opposite sides of the ventilation pad 1, for example, on opposite sides of the ventilation pad 1 along its thickness direction. This allows gas to pass through the ventilation pad 1 in one direction, which helps reduce the resistance encountered by the gas within the ventilation pad 1, reduces gas energy loss, and improves the heat dissipation effect on the seat. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first ventilation hole 111 and the second ventilation hole 112 are located on opposite sides of the ventilation pad 1 along its thickness direction, which helps to shorten the path length of the gas flow within the ventilation pad 1 and reduce gas energy loss.

[0049] When the ventilation pad 1 has multiple second ventilation holes 112, the ventilation device 100 includes multiple ventilation pipes 2. The number of ventilation pipes 2 is equal to the number of second ventilation holes 112, and each ventilation pipe 2 is connected to one second ventilation hole 112. At this time, the controller 4 is connected to multiple ventilation pipes 2, and the controller 4 is used to independently control the opening and closing of the air passage between the air source 3 and any one of the ventilation pipes 2. This allows control over the flow rate of air intake or exhaust from the ventilation pad 1, and control over the heat dissipation intensity of the seat. The ventilation pipes 2 can have various models, and different models of ventilation pipes 2 have different shapes and / or sizes, thus having different intake and exhaust effects. Multiple ventilation pipes 2 connected to the same ventilation pad 1 can include multiple models, meaning that one ventilation pad 1 is equipped with multiple models of ventilation pipes 2.

[0050] The ventilation pad 1 is flat, making it easy to cover the seat frame or be installed inside the seat, minimizing its impact on seat dimensions. The ventilation pad 1 can be used directly as a seat cover, reducing the resistance to ventilation caused by the original seat cover and allowing for a smaller seat size. Optionally, the ventilation pad 1 is rectangular. Optionally, the ventilation pad 1 is adapted to the shape of the seat cover, thus directly replacing the original seat cover.

[0051] The sealing sleeve 11 is elastic or plastic, and can deform when a passenger sits on the seat and applies pressure to the sealing sleeve 11, thereby improving passenger comfort. The sealing sleeve 11 can be made of genuine leather, artificial leather, plastic, rubber, silicone, etc.

[0052] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The sealing sleeve 11 includes a first layer 113 and a second layer 114. The first layer 113 is disposed within the second layer 114. The first layer 113 is used to form a seal, and the second layer 114 is used to contact the passenger, thereby improving the passenger's riding comfort and enhancing the airtightness of the sealing sleeve 11. Optionally, the first layer 113 is made of a material with good airtightness, such as rubber or silicone, and the second layer 114 is made of a skin-friendly and wear-resistant material, such as genuine leather or artificial leather.

[0053] It should be noted that when air is drawn in or blown into the sealing sleeve 11, the sealing sleeve 11 will expand or contract due to changes in internal air pressure, affecting the shape of the seat and the comfort of the passenger. The breathable layer 12, supported within the ventilation pad 1, can support the sealing sleeve 11 when air is drawn in, mitigating the contraction problem. The breathable layer 12 can be bonded to the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 11, and when air is blown into the sealing sleeve 11, it can hold the sealing sleeve 11 in place, mitigating its expansion problem. Optionally, the breathable layer 12 can be made of plastic, metal, or other materials, possessing a certain strength and elasticity to address the issues of the ventilation pad 1 easily collapsing or becoming too rigid, which can lead to poor seat comfort.

[0054] The breathable spacer 12 is adapted to the shape of the inner cavity of the sealing sleeve 11. For example, when the sealing sleeve 11 is a rectangular sheet, the breathable spacer 12 is also a rectangular sheet. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 The breathable barrier 12 has gas channels 121 along its thickness direction. Multiple gas channels 121 are arranged at intervals along the length and width directions of the breathable barrier 12, so that gas can pass through the breathable barrier 12 along its thickness direction, reducing the obstruction of the breathable barrier 12 to the gas and reducing gas energy loss.

[0055] In this design, a gap exists between the breathable partition 12 and the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 11 along the thickness direction of the breathable partition 12, allowing gas to flow in a direction perpendicular to the thickness of the breathable partition 12. It is understood that the first ventilation hole 111 and the second ventilation hole 112 may not be directly aligned along the thickness direction of the ventilation pad 1. Therefore, gas needs to flow a certain distance perpendicular to the thickness of the ventilation pad 1 before it can flow from one of the first ventilation hole 111 to the other. By providing a gap between the breathable partition 12 and the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 11, a channel perpendicular to the thickness direction of the ventilation pad 1 can be formed. This not only allows gas flow between the first ventilation hole 111 and the second ventilation hole 112 but also makes the suction or blowing intensity of the multiple first ventilation holes 111 more uniform. In some other embodiments, the breathable partition 12 also has a gas channel 121 perpendicular to its thickness direction.

[0056] For ventilation duct 2 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The ventilation duct 2 includes a constriction section 21, a throat section 22, and an expansion section 23 connected in sequence. One end of the constriction section 21, away from the throat section 22, is connected to a second ventilation hole 112. The ventilation duct 2 also includes a conduit 24, one end of which is disposed within the constriction section 21 with its port facing the expansion section 23. In this embodiment, the end of the constriction section 21 away from the throat section 22 is connected to the second ventilation hole 112; the air source 3 is connected to the other end of the conduit 24, and the controller 4 is used to control the opening and closing of the air passage between the air source 3 and the conduit 24. For example, the controller 4 is disposed on the pipe between the air source 3 and the conduit 24.

[0057] When gas is introduced from air source 3 into duct 24, the gas is ejected from contraction section 21 toward expansion section 23, driving the surrounding gas to flow toward expansion section 23, thereby creating a negative pressure within contraction section 21. Since contraction section 21 is connected to first ventilation hole 111 via second ventilation hole 112, it draws away gas near first ventilation hole 111, i.e., draws away gas from the seating space, thus cooling the seating space and seat. Cooling by suction, compared to blowing, improves passenger comfort. Specifically, when duct 24 ejects gas from contraction section 21 toward expansion section 23, it can generate negative pressure in contraction section 21 to draw in more gas, using a small airflow to drive a large airflow, increasing the suction volume of ventilation pad 1, enhancing the cooling effect on the seating space and seat, improving cooling efficiency, and allowing the seat to cool down quickly. Correspondingly, the gas output flow rate and gas velocity of air source 3 can be appropriately reduced to further reduce seat noise and reduce energy consumption of air source 3.

[0058] The ventilation duct 2 can be made of plastic, metal, or other materials. When the ventilation duct 2 is made of plastic, it can be manufactured using 3D printing technology, which helps to reduce production costs.

[0059] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The contraction section 21, throat section 22, and expansion section 23 extend along the same axis. That is, the centerlines of the contraction section 21, throat section 22, and expansion section 23 coincide in pairs. When the gas passes through the contraction section 21, throat section 22, and expansion section 23, the gas does not need to go through bends, which helps to reduce the energy loss of the gas.

[0060] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The contraction section 21, throat section 22, and expansion section 23 are all rotating bodies. When the gas passes through the contraction section 21, it contracts uniformly from all sides towards the axis of the contraction section 21; when the gas passes through the expansion section 23, it expands uniformly in a direction away from the axis of the expansion section 23, which helps to reduce airflow turbulence and reduce gas energy loss.

[0061] For the contraction segment 21 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 4 Along the direction from the contraction section 21 to the throat section 22, the contraction rate of the contraction section 21 gradually decreases. As the gas passes through the contraction section 21, its contraction rate gradually decreases, and then abruptly drops to zero as the gas passes through the throat section 22. By gradually decreasing the gas's contraction rate, the degree of this abrupt change can be reduced, thereby weakening the intensity of the vortex rings caused by this abrupt change in gas contraction rate. When the gas generates vortex rings within the ventilation duct 2, a significant amount of energy loss occurs; therefore, gradually decreasing the contraction rate of the contraction section 21 helps to reduce this energy loss.

[0062] In this embodiment of the application, the shrinkage rate of the shrinkage section 21 refers to the rate of change of the inner diameter of the shrinkage section 21, and the expansion rate of the expansion section 23 refers to the rate of change of the inner diameter of the expansion section 23.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 4 At the junction of contraction segment 21 and throat segment 22, the contraction rate of contraction segment 21 is zero, meaning the tangent at the junction of contraction segment 21 and throat segment 22 is parallel to the axis of contraction segment 21. Therefore, when the gas flows from contraction segment 21 to throat segment 22, the contraction rate of the gas theoretically does not change abruptly, thus minimizing the energy loss of the gas.

[0064] For the above-mentioned laryngeal segment 22, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 The dotted line in the middle is the throat section 22. The length of the throat section 22 is close to zero, that is, after the gas flows out of the contraction section 21, it immediately enters the expansion section 23, which helps to shorten the length of the ventilation pipe 2.

[0065] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4The length of the contraction section 21 is shorter than the length of the expansion section 23. The gas flows in the expansion section 23 for a longer time than it flows in the contraction section 21, which can generate a greater negative pressure in the contraction section 21 and increase the air intake of the ventilation pipe 2 to the ventilation pad 1.

[0066] For the aforementioned expansion section 23, please refer to Figure 4 Along the throat 22 towards the expansion section 23, the expansion rate of the expansion section 23 first gradually increases and then remains constant. When the gas passes through the throat 22, the expansion rate of the gas is zero. Then, when the gas passes through the expansion section 23, the expansion rate of the gas abruptly becomes greater than zero. By gradually increasing the expansion rate of the expansion section 23 first, the degree of this abrupt change can be reduced, thereby weakening the intensity of the vortex ring caused by the abrupt change in the gas's expansion rate, which is beneficial for reducing the energy loss of the gas.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 4 At the junction of expansion section 23 and throat section 22, the expansion rate of expansion section 23 is zero, meaning the tangent at the junction is parallel to the axis of expansion section 23. Therefore, when the gas flows from throat section 22 to expansion section 23, the expansion rate theoretically does not change abruptly, thus minimizing energy loss.

[0068] In this process, the expansion rate of expansion section 23 first gradually increases and then remains constant. Therefore, when the gas passes through expansion section 23, the expansion rate of the gas does not change abruptly, which is beneficial to reducing the energy loss of the gas. Figure 4 In the middle, the solid line between the expansion segment 23 and the throat segment 22 is the boundary line between the segment where the expansion rate of the expansion segment 23 gradually increases and the segment where the expansion rate of the expansion segment 23 remains constant. It can be understood that the tangents of these two segments of the expansion segment 23 at the boundary line are parallel to each other.

[0069] For catheter 24 mentioned above, please refer to Figure 4 The conduit 24 includes an inlet section 241 and an outlet section 242. The inlet section 241 is located within the wall of the contraction section 21, and the outlet section 242 communicates with the inlet section 241. The outlet section 242 is located within the contraction section 21, and its port faces the expansion section 23. By placing the inlet section 241 within the wall of the contraction section 21, it is advantageous to separate the pipe connected to the inlet section 241 from the end of the contraction section 21 facing away from the expansion section 23, reducing interference with the communication between the contraction section 21 and the second vent 112. Furthermore, it reduces the volume occupied by the conduit 24 within the contraction section 21, allowing the contraction section 21 to draw in more gas.

[0070] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4The centerline of the ejector section 242 coincides with that of the converging section 21. That is, the ejector section 242 is positioned close to the centerline of the converging section 21, which helps to increase the air intake efficiency of the ventilation duct 2. Furthermore, the centerline of the ejector section 242 coincides with the centerline of the converging section 21 to further maximize the air intake efficiency of the ventilation duct 2.

[0071] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The ejection section 242 is parallel to the axis of the ventilation duct 2. Therefore, when the gas is ejected from the ejection section 242, the airflow direction is parallel to the axis of the ventilation duct 2, and the airflow ejected from the ejection section 242 does not need to change its flow direction within the expansion section 23, which helps to reduce the energy loss of the gas.

[0072] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The inlet section 241 extends radially along the constriction section 21, and the conduit 24 is partially curved to connect with the inlet section 241. Exemplarily, the conduit 24 also includes a curved section 243, which is a bend in the tube and connects the inlet section 241 to the outlet section 242. It is understood that the angle between the axis of the inlet section 241 and the axis of the outlet section 242 is a right angle; if the gas directly enters the outlet section 242 from the inlet section 241, a significant amount of energy will be lost. Connecting the inlet section 241 and the outlet section 242 via the bend in the tube-like curved section 243 reduces this energy loss.

[0073] Furthermore, the curved section 243 smoothly connects the inlet section 241 and the outlet section 242. This smooth connection means that the tangents to the centerlines at both ends of the curved section 243 are parallel to the centerlines of the inlet section 241 and the outlet section 242, respectively, and the centerline of the curved section 243 is a curve. For example, the centerline of the curved section 243 can be an arc, a parabola, or an elliptical arc. Preferably, the centerline of the curved section 243 is an arc to minimize gas energy loss.

[0074] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The inlet section 241 includes a narrowing section 2411, the inner diameter of which gradually decreases along the radial direction of the contraction section 21. It can be understood that the airflow flows in the inlet section 241 towards the axis of the contraction section 21, thus causing the inner diameter of the narrowing section 2411 to gradually decrease in the direction towards the axis of the contraction section 21. By providing the narrowing section 2411, the cross-sectional area through which the gas flows is reduced, thereby increasing the airflow velocity.

[0075] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4The ventilation duct 2 also includes a straight pipe section 25. One end of the straight pipe section 25 is connected to the second ventilation hole 112, and the other end of the straight pipe section 25 is connected to the end of the contraction section 21 opposite to the throat section 22. The inner diameter of the straight pipe section 25 is equal to the inner diameter of the end of the contraction section 21 opposite to the throat section 22. By providing the straight pipe section 25, it is easy for the ventilation duct 2 to connect with the second ventilation hole 112. The straight pipe section 25 can be partially inserted into the second ventilation hole 112, enhancing the airtightness of the connection between the ventilation duct 2 and the ventilation pad 1.

[0076] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The ventilation duct 2 also includes a connector 26, which is located on the outer wall of the contraction section 21 and communicates with the conduit 24. The connector 26 is used to connect the duct, facilitating the connection between the ventilation duct 2 and the duct.

[0077] Example 2:

[0078] This application provides a seat (not shown) including a ventilation device 100. At least one of the seat portion, backrest, armrest, and leg area is provided with a ventilation pad 1, and a first ventilation hole 111 faces the seating space of the seat. The seat possesses the structural features and beneficial effects of the ventilation device 100, which will not be elaborated here.

[0079] When the seat has a ventilation device 100, if a second ventilation device 100 is installed in another part of the seat, the second ventilation device 100 can share an air source 3 and a controller 4 with the first ventilation device 100, which helps to reduce costs. Furthermore, the second ventilation device 100 does not need to have a ventilation pipe 2; instead, it can be connected to the sealing sleeve 11 of the first ventilation device 100 via a pipe, for example, to the first ventilation hole 111 or the second ventilation hole 112 of the first ventilation device 100.

[0080] Example 3:

[0081] To illustrate that the seats in this application embodiment can achieve controllable ventilation area and ventilation intensity according to passenger needs, this application embodiment provides a ventilation method applied to the seats. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 The methods include:

[0082] S100: Obtain ventilation mode.

[0083] The seat may include buttons or a touchscreen, allowing users to input their desired ventilation mode.

[0084] Understandably, the seat also includes a control device (not shown) for obtaining the ventilation mode via buttons or a touchscreen, and for controlling the air source 3 and the controller 4. The seat may also include a communication module that communicates with a network or nearby smart devices, allowing the ventilation mode to be input via a smart device such as a mobile phone, or via a wireless controller 4 such as a remote control.

[0085] S200: Controls the connection between the preset ventilation pipe 2 and the air source 3 according to the ventilation mode.

[0086] Ventilation mode includes at least one of ventilation area information and ventilation intensity information. Ventilation area information refers to the areas that need ventilation, such as the seat, backrest, armrest, and legs of a chair. Ventilation intensity information refers to the ventilation intensity of the areas that need ventilation, such as light breeze, medium breeze, or strong breeze.

[0087] When the ventilation mode includes ventilation area information Please see Figure 6 Step S200 includes:

[0088] S210: Obtain ventilation area information based on ventilation mode.

[0089] Ventilation zones can be named separately, such as ventilation zone A, ventilation zone B, etc., so the ventilation zone information can be ventilation zone A, ventilation zone B, etc.

[0090] S220: Obtain the preset number of ventilation duct 2 corresponding to the ventilation area information based on the ventilation area information.

[0091] The preset number of ventilation duct 2 corresponding to ventilation area A can be A, and the preset number of ventilation duct 2 corresponding to ventilation area B can be B. When one ventilation area corresponds to multiple ventilation ducts 2, the preset numbers of the multiple ventilation ducts 2 corresponding to ventilation area A are A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, etc., and the preset numbers of the multiple ventilation ducts 2 corresponding to ventilation area B are B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, etc.

[0092] S230: Control the connection between the pre-numbered ventilation pipe 2 and the air source 3.

[0093] Taking ventilation area A as an example: the ventilation area information is obtained as ventilation area A according to the ventilation mode. The preset number of the ventilation pipe 2 corresponding to the ventilation area information is A. Then, one or more ventilation pipes 2 with preset number A are connected to the air source 3. For example, the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers A1 and A2 are connected to the air source 3, or the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers A1 and A5 are connected to the air source 3, thereby realizing ventilation at ventilation area A.

[0094] When the ventilation mode includes ventilation intensity information Please see Figure 7 Step S200 includes:

[0095] S240: Obtain ventilation intensity information based on the ventilation mode.

[0096] Ventilation intensity information can include light breeze, moderate wind, and strong wind.

[0097] S250: The preset number of ventilation ducts 2 corresponding to the ventilation intensity information is obtained.

[0098] The preset number of ventilation ducts 2 corresponding to a light breeze is the first number, the preset number of ventilation ducts 2 corresponding to a moderate stroke is the second number, and the preset number of ventilation ducts 2 corresponding to a strong wind is the third number. Among them, the third number is greater than the second number, and the second number is greater than the first number, so the ventilation intensity of a strong wind is greater than the ventilation intensity of a moderate stroke, and the ventilation intensity of a moderate stroke is greater than the ventilation intensity of a light breeze.

[0099] S260: Controls a preset number of ventilation pipes 2 to connect to the air source 3.

[0100] Taking ventilation intensity information including light breeze, medium breeze and strong breeze as an example: the preset numbers of multiple ventilation ducts 2 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc.

[0101] When the ventilation intensity information of the ventilation mode is "light breeze", the first number of ventilation pipes 2 can be connected to the air source 3. The first number can be one-third of the total number of ventilation pipes 2. For example, the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers 1 and 2 can be connected to the air source 3, or the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers 2 and 5 can be connected to the air source 3 to achieve ventilation with a light breeze intensity.

[0102] When the ventilation intensity information of the ventilation mode is moderate, a second number of ventilation pipes 2 can be connected to the air source 3. The second number can be two-thirds of the total number of ventilation pipes 2. For example, controlling the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 to connect to the air source 3, or controlling the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers 2, 3, 4, and 5 to connect to the air source 3, so as to achieve ventilation intensity of moderate.

[0103] When the ventilation intensity information of the ventilation mode is high wind, a third number of ventilation pipes 2 can be connected to the air source 3. The third number can be equal to the total number of ventilation pipes 2. For example, ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 can be connected to the air source 3 to achieve ventilation intensity of high wind.

[0104] When the ventilation mode includes ventilation area information and ventilation intensity information Please see Figure 8 Step S200 includes:

[0105] S210: Obtain ventilation area information based on ventilation mode.

[0106] S220: Obtain the preset number of ventilation duct 2 corresponding to the ventilation area information based on the ventilation area information.

[0107] S240: Obtain ventilation intensity information based on the ventilation mode.

[0108] S250: The preset number of ventilation ducts 2 corresponding to the ventilation intensity information is obtained.

[0109] Steps S210, S220, S240, and S250 are the same as the steps with the same names mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

[0110] S270: Control the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers, and connect a preset number of ventilation pipes 2 to the air source 3.

[0111] Taking ventilation area A as an example, and ventilation intensity information including light breeze, medium breeze and strong breeze: the preset numbers of the multiple ventilation pipes 2 corresponding to ventilation area A are A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, etc.

[0112] When the ventilation intensity information of the ventilation mode is "light breeze", the first number of ventilation pipes 2 with preset number A can be connected to the air source 3. The first number can be one-third of the number of ventilation pipes 2 with preset number A. For example, the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers A1 and A2 can be connected to the air source 3, or the ventilation pipes 2 with preset numbers A2 and A5 can be connected to the air source 3, so as to achieve ventilation with a light breeze intensity at ventilation area A.

[0113] When the ventilation intensity information of the ventilation mode is moderate, the second number of ventilation pipes 2 in the preset number A can be connected to the air source 3. The second number can be two-thirds of the number of ventilation pipes 2 in the preset number A. For example, the ventilation pipes 2 in the preset number A1, A2, A3, and A4 can be connected to the air source 3, or the ventilation pipes 2 in the preset number A2, A3, A4, and A5 can be connected to the air source 3 to achieve ventilation intensity of moderate at ventilation area A.

[0114] When the ventilation intensity information of the ventilation mode is high wind, the third number of ventilation pipes 2 in the preset number A can be connected to the air source 3. The third number can be equal to the number of ventilation pipes 2 in the preset number A. For example, the ventilation pipes 2 in the preset numbers A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and A6 can be connected to the air source 3 to achieve ventilation intensity of high wind at the ventilation area A.

[0115] In this embodiment of the ventilation device 100 and seat, when the air source 3 introduces gas into the duct 24 and ejects it from the contraction section 21 towards the expansion section 23, a negative pressure can be generated in the contraction section 21 to draw in more gas. This small airflow drives a large airflow, which enhances the heat dissipation effect and efficiency of the seat, allowing it to cool down quickly. The air source 3 and controller 4 do not need to be located inside the seat, which helps reduce the seat's size and noise. The ventilation pad 1 is flat, minimizing its impact on the seat's dimensions. This ventilation method, based on the seat, allows for controllable ventilation area and intensity according to passenger needs, improving passenger comfort.
