Vehicle seat for cooling and heating
View Patent ↗A vehicle seat for cooling and heating may include a seat pad, a mesh sheet having a certain thickness, a first film, and a porous seat cover, which are arranged sequentially in the direction in which air is introduced to flow. The seat pad has a pad hole, which allows air to pass through, and includes one or both of a seat cushion pad, which supports the buttocks of a user, and a seatback pad, which supports the upper body of the user. The mesh sheet has a porous network structure, through which air easily passes. The first film has a first film hole, which allows air to pass through. Air passages are maintained stable to maximize blowing performance, seating comfort is improved, and a ventilation structure is simplified to reduce manufacturing costs while improving productivity.
1. A vehicle seat comprising:
a seat pad having a pad hole, which allows air to pass through, wherein the seat pad includes at least a seat cushion pad, which supports buttocks of a user, and a seatback pad, which supports an upper body of the user;
a mesh sheet disposed on the seat pad and having a porous network structure, through which the air passes;
a first film disposed on the mesh sheet and having a first film hole, which allows the air to pass through; and
a porous seat cover disposed on the first film,
wherein the seat pad, the mesh sheet, the first film, and the seat cover are arranged sequentially according to a direction in which the air is introduced to flow, and
wherein the mesh sheet has a predetermined thickness.
2. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , wherein the mesh sheet is made up of flexible but incompressible material.
3. The vehicle seat according to claim 1 , further comprising a second film disposed between the seat pad and the mesh sheet, wherein the second film has a second film hole therein to fluid-communicate with the first film hole through the mesh sheet and with the pad hole.
4. The vehicle seat according to claim 3 , wherein number of the second film hole is smaller than the number of the first film hole.
5. The vehicle seat according to claim 3 , wherein the second film, the mesh sheet, and the first film are provided inside the porous seat cover.
6. The vehicle seat according to claim 3 , wherein the second film, the mesh sheet, and the first film are wrapped in sequence inside the porous seat cover.
