Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for conducting air according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Generic devices are used, for example, for the air conditioning of vehicle seats.
- Air-conditioning devices for vehicle seats are known. Also pneumatic seat adjusters as lordosis and as a massage system for seats are known. The problem is an integration of both systems in a seat. If a seat adjustment device is positioned under a seat cushion, large volumes have to be moved in order to notice an effect on the seat surface. This leads to oversized pumps and low adjustment speed. Conversely, the air conditioning function is disturbed when the actuators are positioned on the seat surface.
- a subject of the invention is a device having the features of claim 1. This has the advantage that a mutual interference of the two systems is avoided by the integration of a seat adjustment device in an air conditioning device.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of an air conditioning device with adjusting device
- Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section through the arrangement of Fig. 1st
- a body support device is understood below to mean, in particular, any furniture for sitting and / or lying and all devices on vehicles which offer assistance to a person when standing, sitting or lying down.
- FIG. 1 and 2 show a functional module according to the invention.
- An apparatus 100 for conducting air for conditioning a body support device has a carrier layer 1. This is made of an air-permeable material. In the exemplary embodiment, it is at least partially formed by a fleece. It is intended to rest on a foam core of a pad, in particular a vehicle seat.
- heating element 11 of an electrical heating element are arranged on the one contact zone 20 and a user-facing side of the carrier layer 1 . They are arranged essentially over the entire surface of the carrier layer 1. They can be made of metal and / or electrically conductive plastics, such as. As carbon, be made.
- the air-guiding layer 2 may be formed, for example, from a spacer knitted fabric. In the present example, it is formed from a plurality of spirals extending longitudinally in the guiding layer. It has a sufficient cross-section of, for example, one centimeter in order to ventilate the contact surface 20 sufficiently. The dimensions of their base are slightly smaller than the support layer 1. This ensures that no noticeable bumps occur when inserting the air guide layer 1 in a corresponding recess of a seat cushion at the edges.
- the air guide layer 2 is substantially completely covered by a wall 25. This is formed in the embodiment of an air-impermeable polyurethane film. The wall 25 covers the air guide layer 2 substantially completely. It is connected in its edge region with the carrier layer, glued in the embodiment.
- the wall 25 has a recess, to which an air supply device 4 is connected.
- this air feed device 4 is formed by a fan 14, which is fastened directly or indirectly to the air-guiding layer 2 and / or the wall 25.
- it can also z. B. be formed by a pipe or a snorkel-like extension of the wall 25, at the z. B. a spaced fan or an on-board air conditioning is connected.
- This adjusting device 7 has a volume body 27, the volume of which is variably adjustable.
- the volume body 27 is formed from a bubble 17.
- This bladder 17 is preferably formed from an air-impermeable material.
- the bubble is also formed of polyurethane film.
- a part of the bladder wall 30 is formed by the wall 25 of the air-guiding layer 2.
- the volume body 27 is preferably elongate and extends transversely to the expected position of the spine of a user. It is preferably made thickened at its ends. In the area of its center, in the area of the spine, it is narrow.
- the volume body 27 is connected via a fluid line 8 to a fluid supply device and / or a drain valve.
- a plurality of fluid conduits 8 is also required if the volutes 27 should be individually adjustable. Since the fan 14 also requires an electrical supply line 5, it is expedient to guide the fluid lines 8 and the supply line 5 within the air-guiding layer 2. In order not to disturb the air distribution function of the air guiding layer 2, it is expedient to guide it along the edge of the air guiding layer 2.
- an air flow 9 is blown into the air-guiding layer 2 for air-conditioning via the fan 14, distributed there along the carrier layer 1 and then blown out through the latter and through the heating element to the user.
- the bubbles 17 are filled via the fluid lines 8 with a corresponding amount of fluid.
- the bladder 17 inflates or contracts accordingly.
- the contact zone 20 is positioned or moved accordingly.
