Noise reduction device and pneumatic system

[0001] Cross-reference to related applications

[0002] The present application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 2024214205792, filed on June 20, 2024, and entitled "A noise reduction device", the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The present application relates to the field of pneumatic noise reduction, in particular to a noise reduction device and a pneumatic system. BACKGROUND

[0004] With the development of technology in the field of vehicle transportation, people's requirements for vehicle riding comfort are becoming higher and higher, and the waist and back adjustment and massage device of the seat has emerged as the times require, effectively solving the problem of human waist and back fatigue caused by long-time driving.

[0005] At present, most of the seat waist and back adjustment and massage devices of some vehicles on the market are pneumatic structures. The pneumatic structure uses an air pump as a power source to blow air into a supporting air bag body placed behind the backrest foam pad through a related control valve body. By inflating and deflating the supporting air bag body, the local convexity or flatness of the backrest seat surface is realized, thereby realizing the supporting and massaging effect on the human waist and back.

[0006] However, when air is blown into or discharged from the supporting air bag body, the rapidly flowing air will produce impact and noise, especially when air is blown into the supporting air bag body, the ejected air will produce a large amount of airflow noise. These impacts and noises will affect the comfort of people when adjusting and massaging the waist and back.

[0007] SUMMARY
