Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of office chair technology, specifically to an office chair with seat ventilation. Background Technology

[0002] To improve comfort during office work, existing office chairs typically integrate ventilation functions in their seat cushions. A ventilated office chair, as disclosed in patent number ZL202322187259.9, includes a hollow seat surface with a heat dissipation mechanism inside. This mechanism includes a cooling fan fixedly installed inside the hollow seat surface. The top of the hollow seat surface has uniformly distributed first ventilation holes, and a sponge pad is fixedly mounted on the top of the hollow seat surface. The sponge pad has uniformly distributed third ventilation holes, with each of the first and third ventilation holes corresponding one-to-one. When the cooling fan is turned on, air can be blown out from inside the hollow seat surface through the first and third ventilation holes, providing ventilation and cooling to the user's buttocks, thus improving comfort.

[0003] However, the heat dissipation mechanism of this technical solution does not have the function of uniform airflow. When the air generated by the cooling fan blows towards the first ventilation hole, due to the combined influence of various factors such as the layout and shape of the ventilation hole and the unevenness of the airflow from the cooling fan, it is very easy for some of the first ventilation holes to have high pressure and some to have low pressure. This uneven pressure distribution directly leads to uneven airflow, resulting in better heat dissipation in some ventilation hole areas and poor heat dissipation in others. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides an office chair with seat ventilation.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
