- the longitudinal and transverse grooves described are designed as ventilation ducts.
- ventilation channels which penetrate the full core thickness of the cushion core are provided therein, said ventilation channels opening, on the one hand, in the intersecting points of longitudinal and transverse grooves and, on the other hand, freely on the outside of the cushion core.
- a fan for subjecting a central cushion region to air can be arranged either on that side of the cushion core which faces away from the cover layer and at a distance therefrom, or in a channel completely penetrating the cushion core.
- DE 200 02 447 U1 discloses a seat cushion for vehicle seats, in particular for vehicle seats with a core part made from plastic foam.
- the core part On its upper side facing a seat surface, the core part has duct-like depressions which cause zonal weakening and thereby configure the seat surface in accordance with the required pressure ratios.
- the basic concept in this case is to provide a support which is suitable for the body and at the same time brings about a soft and pleasant sitting sensation.
- the duct-like depressions and those remaining partial surfaces of the core part which are formed thereby are designed in adaptation to the human anatomy in such a manner that an optimum seat pressure distribution is achieved. It is furthermore provided to permit, at least partially, a circulation of air in the duct-like depressions. In this case, either a passive or an active ventilation can be provided with an additional ventilator.

- DE 40 01 207 A1 discloses a vehicle seat with a cushion body provided with a cushion cover.
- a moisture-absorbing material is provided between cushion body and a cushion cover, said material absorbing the moisture on the contact surfaces of the seat, against which the body parts of the vehicle occupant bear, and transporting it to the outside of the seat.

- the present invention is concerned with the problem of indicating an improved embodiment for a vehicle seat of the type mentioned at the beginning, in which, in particular, a particularly high seat comfort is achieved.
- the invention is based on the general concept, in the case of a motor vehicle seat which has a cushion core with essentially surface-parallel ventilation ducts and ventilation channels arranged transversely thereto, of providing a predetermined arrangement of the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels which defines regions in the cushion core which are ventilated to different extents, and these regions being adapted to a ventilation requirement of a standard vehicle occupant.

- the ventilation channels preferably open in an intersecting point of two intersecting ventilation ducts.
- the solution according to the invention affords the great advantage that the ventilation ducts are only arranged within the cushion core at the points at which a ventilation is actually required. For example, there is an increased ventilation requirement in the lower back region or in the region of a human ischial protuberance whereas, in the shoulder region, i.e. in the upper back region, there is a rather low ventilation requirement.
- the ventilation system comprising ventilation ducts and ventilation channels to the ventilation requirement of a standardized vehicle occupant, a significant increase in comfort is achieved which makes itself noticeable in particular by the fact that the sweat moisture which is output by the vehicle occupant and is output to different extents at different points of the vehicle seat can be removed as required.
- a pleasant and fresh seat feel is thereby imparted to the vehicle occupant, which has a positive effect on the vehicle occupant's feeling of well-being and consequently also on the driving safety.
- the ventilation ducts and/or the ventilation channels can be arranged more densely and/or can have a larger cross section and can thereby bring about an increased dehumidifying capacity.
- the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels can be at a larger distance from one another and/or can be formed with a smaller cross-section.
- the ventilation requirement is adapted to a body pressure distribution.
- a body pressure distribution At points with increased body pressure, for example in the region of the human ischial protuberance, an increased sweat moisture occurrence is to be expected whereas, in regions with a low body contact pressure, of course, significantly less sweat moisture occurs.
- it is expedient to adapt the ventilation requirement to a body pressure distribution by, for example, the arrangement of the ventilation ducts and/or the ventilation channels being coordinated with regard to their shape and arrangement density to the body pressure distribution.
- the ventilation or the removal of moisture is coordinated as required to the actual requirement, triggered by the human anatomy.
- the ventilation requirement is adapted to body contact points.
- a dehumidification of individual seat regions which meets requirements and, above all, is adapted to the human anatomy is ensured.
- a significantly higher sweat moisture occurrence is normally to be expected than at points at which no or only sporadic contact between the vehicle occupant and the seat surface or backrest surface occurs.
- regions at which the vehicle occupant does not have any contact with the seat surface or back rest surface between the latter and the vehicle occupant there is an insulating, dehumidifying and simultaneously freshening air layer which, even when there is a low flow rate, guarantees sufficient ventilation.
- a duct grid of this type provides uniform and sufficient ventilation of all of the connected ducts, and thereby ensures a circulation, which is for the ventilation, in the duct system.
- the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels can only be arranged in regions with ventilation provided. Regions of this type can be defined, for example, via the seat pressure distribution or via the body contact points and can thereby ensure that the ventilation of the cushion core and therefore of the vehicle seat is essentially restricted to the regions in which there is an actual ventilation requirement.
- the ventilation ducts and/or the ventilation channels can be closed in regions in which no ventilation is provided.
- a standardized cushion core is used, in which the corresponding ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels are closed, for example, by means of an adhesive bond or by means of a stopper during production subsequently.
- the vehicle seat is designed as a passively ventilated vehicle seat.
- the pumping action caused by the movement of the vehicle occupant during the journey is essentially sufficient in order to bring about a sufficient circulation of the air in the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels.
- an additional ventilator can therefore be saved and, as a result, the significant lowering of costs can be achieved.

- this variant embodiment ensures a significantly increased dehumidifying capacity, so that, in particular in the summer months, an active seat ventilation can achieve an additional increase in comfort.
- the fan or the miniature ventilator is switched off, the vehicle seat which up to now was actively ventilated is passively ventilated.

Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a motor vehicle seat according to the precharacterizing clause of
claim 1. - A cushion with a cushion core is known from the German patent application with the official application number 102 43 315.16 and the application date of Sep. 18, 2002, which has still not been published by the application date of the present patent application. To improve the climate comfort, longitudinal and transverse grooves are formed in a surface of the cushion core, which grooves are spaced apart from one another, in each case have a constant cross section, are open toward a cover layer and intersect one another. In this case, the longitudinal and transverse grooves described are designed as ventilation ducts. In addition, ventilation channels which penetrate the full core thickness of the cushion core are provided therein, said ventilation channels opening, on the one hand, in the intersecting points of longitudinal and transverse grooves and, on the other hand, freely on the outside of the cushion core. Furthermore, a fan for subjecting a central cushion region to air can be arranged either on that side of the cushion core which faces away from the cover layer and at a distance therefrom, or in a channel completely penetrating the cushion core.
- DE 200 02 447 U1 discloses a seat cushion for vehicle seats, in particular for vehicle seats with a core part made from plastic foam. On its upper side facing a seat surface, the core part has duct-like depressions which cause zonal weakening and thereby configure the seat surface in accordance with the required pressure ratios. The basic concept in this case is to provide a support which is suitable for the body and at the same time brings about a soft and pleasant sitting sensation. In this case, the duct-like depressions and those remaining partial surfaces of the core part which are formed thereby are designed in adaptation to the human anatomy in such a manner that an optimum seat pressure distribution is achieved. It is furthermore provided to permit, at least partially, a circulation of air in the duct-like depressions. In this case, either a passive or an active ventilation can be provided with an additional ventilator.
- DE 33 06 871 A1 discloses a cushion with an air-permeable cover layer. In the cushion, ventilation ducts or flexible tubes running on or in the core and having air-permeable walls bring about a reinforced exchange of air in the regions on which the person is sitting, leaning or reclining, which prevents too great a rise in temperature of the cushion surface. Furthermore, it is provided to coordinate the duct density and a duct cross section to a cushion size or cushion shape in such a manner that a seat pressure distribution perceived as being comfortable is maintained.
- DE 40 01 207 A1 discloses a vehicle seat with a cushion body provided with a cushion cover. On the inside of the seat, a moisture-absorbing material is provided between cushion body and a cushion cover, said material absorbing the moisture on the contact surfaces of the seat, against which the body parts of the vehicle occupant bear, and transporting it to the outside of the seat. Furthermore, recesses in the form of blind-pore-like transverse grooves are provided in the cushion body and the moisture-absorbing material extends through them to the outside of the cushion body. The abovementioned recesses transport away the moisture which arises and therefore ensures a pleasant seat climate. In this case, the abovementioned recesses are distributed essentially regularly and uniformly over the seat surface or backrest surface of the vehicle seat.
- The present invention is concerned with the problem of indicating an improved embodiment for a vehicle seat of the type mentioned at the beginning, in which, in particular, a particularly high seat comfort is achieved.
- This object is achieved by the subject matter of the independent claim. Advantageous refinements are the subject matter of the dependent claim.
- The invention is based on the general concept, in the case of a motor vehicle seat which has a cushion core with essentially surface-parallel ventilation ducts and ventilation channels arranged transversely thereto, of providing a predetermined arrangement of the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels which defines regions in the cushion core which are ventilated to different extents, and these regions being adapted to a ventilation requirement of a standard vehicle occupant. The ventilation ducts run essentially along and inside a seat surface and/or backrest surface and have an essentially constant cross section. The ventilation channels, which likewise in each case have a constant cross section, penetrate the entire thickness of the cushion core and extend from the ventilation ducts as far as a rear wall facing away from the seat surface and/or backrest surface. In this case, the ventilation channels preferably open in an intersecting point of two intersecting ventilation ducts.
- The solution according to the invention affords the great advantage that the ventilation ducts are only arranged within the cushion core at the points at which a ventilation is actually required. For example, there is an increased ventilation requirement in the lower back region or in the region of a human ischial protuberance whereas, in the shoulder region, i.e. in the upper back region, there is a rather low ventilation requirement. By adapting the ventilation system comprising ventilation ducts and ventilation channels to the ventilation requirement of a standardized vehicle occupant, a significant increase in comfort is achieved which makes itself noticeable in particular by the fact that the sweat moisture which is output by the vehicle occupant and is output to different extents at different points of the vehicle seat can be removed as required. A pleasant and fresh seat feel is thereby imparted to the vehicle occupant, which has a positive effect on the vehicle occupant's feeling of well-being and consequently also on the driving safety.
- In regions with a greater ventilation requirement, the ventilation ducts and/or the ventilation channels can be arranged more densely and/or can have a larger cross section and can thereby bring about an increased dehumidifying capacity. In regions in which only a moderate or low sweat moisture occurrence is to be expected, the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels can be at a larger distance from one another and/or can be formed with a smaller cross-section. Overall, the solution according to the invention therefore affords the great advantage that the ventilation capacity of the vehicle seat is adapted to the actual ventilation requirement of different seat points.
- According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the ventilation requirement is adapted to a body pressure distribution. At points with increased body pressure, for example in the region of the human ischial protuberance, an increased sweat moisture occurrence is to be expected whereas, in regions with a low body contact pressure, of course, significantly less sweat moisture occurs. As a result, it is expedient to adapt the ventilation requirement to a body pressure distribution by, for example, the arrangement of the ventilation ducts and/or the ventilation channels being coordinated with regard to their shape and arrangement density to the body pressure distribution. As a result, the ventilation or the removal of moisture is coordinated as required to the actual requirement, triggered by the human anatomy.
- According to an advantageous development of the invention, the ventilation requirement is adapted to body contact points. In this embodiment too, a dehumidification of individual seat regions which meets requirements and, above all, is adapted to the human anatomy is ensured. At points at which the standard vehicle occupant's body has contact with the seat surface or backrest surface, a significantly higher sweat moisture occurrence is normally to be expected than at points at which no or only sporadic contact between the vehicle occupant and the seat surface or backrest surface occurs. At regions at which the vehicle occupant does not have any contact with the seat surface or back rest surface, between the latter and the vehicle occupant there is an insulating, dehumidifying and simultaneously freshening air layer which, even when there is a low flow rate, guarantees sufficient ventilation. By contrast, however, at regions with direct body contact the thickness of this air layer is greatly reduced, and a flow rate or circulation of the air layer is virtually impossible. It therefore appears extremely expedient to adapt the ventilation requirement, i.e. the arrangement of the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels, to possible body contact points of the standard vehicle occupant with the vehicle seat.
- It can expediently be provided to design the ventilation ducts as a duct grid and to intersect them in a manner connected in terms of flow. A duct grid of this type provides uniform and sufficient ventilation of all of the connected ducts, and thereby ensures a circulation, which is for the ventilation, in the duct system.
- According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the solution according to the invention, the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels can only be arranged in regions with ventilation provided. Regions of this type can be defined, for example, via the seat pressure distribution or via the body contact points and can thereby ensure that the ventilation of the cushion core and therefore of the vehicle seat is essentially restricted to the regions in which there is an actual ventilation requirement.
- According to a preferred development of the invention, the ventilation ducts and/or the ventilation channels can be closed in regions in which no ventilation is provided. This affords the great advantage that, in the first instance, a standardized cushion core is used, in which the corresponding ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels are closed, for example, by means of an adhesive bond or by means of a stopper during production subsequently. By this means, for example, a reduction in components and therefore an advantage in terms of costs can be achieved.
- According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the vehicle seat is designed as a passively ventilated vehicle seat. In the case of passively ventilated vehicle seats, the pumping action caused by the movement of the vehicle occupant during the journey is essentially sufficient in order to bring about a sufficient circulation of the air in the ventilation ducts and/or ventilation channels. In contrast to an actively ventilated vehicle seat, an additional ventilator can therefore be saved and, as a result, the significant lowering of costs can be achieved.
- It is also conceivable for the vehicle seat to be designed as an actively ventilated vehicle seat, with at least one fan or a miniature ventilator being provided to ventilate the vehicle seat. In comparison to the passively ventilated vehicle seat, this variant embodiment ensures a significantly increased dehumidifying capacity, so that, in particular in the summer months, an active seat ventilation can achieve an additional increase in comfort. It is also conceivable in this case that, when the fan or the miniature ventilator is switched off, the vehicle seat which up to now was actively ventilated is passively ventilated.
- Further important features and advantages of the invention emerge from the subclaims, from the drawings and from the associated descriptions of the figures with reference to the drawings.
- It goes without saying that the features mentioned above and those which have yet to be explained below can be used not only in the respectively stated combination but also in other combinations or on their own without departing from the context of the present invention.
- Preferred exemplary embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and are explained in more detail in the descriptions below, with identical reference numbers referring to identical or similar or functionally identical components.
- In the drawings:
-
FIG. 1 shows a plan view of a vehicle seat according to the invention, -
FIG. 2 shows a diagrammatic illustration of a body pressure distribution of a standard vehicle occupant on a vehicle seat, -
FIG. 3 shows an illustration as inFIG. 1 , but with differently arranged ventilation ducts. - According to
FIG. 1 , a part of avehicle seat 1, namely aseat surface 2 which has a multiplicity of intersectingventilation ducts 3 is shown. Both inFIG. 1 and inFIG. 2 , only theseat surface 2 of thevehicle seat 1 is illustrated, the details described below of course also being transferable to a backrest surface of thevehicle seat 1. - The
ventilation ducts 3 are arranged both in the longitudinal direction of the seat and in the transverse direction of the seat and intersect at intersecting points 9 at which arespective ventilation channel 5 arranged transversely to theventilation ducts 3 opens. Theventilation ducts 3 run along and on the inside of aseat surface 2 or a backrest surface (not illustrated) within thecushion core 4 and are designed to have in each case an essentially constant cross section. Theventilation channels 5, which penetrate the entire thickness of thecushion core 4 and extend from theventilation ducts 3 on the one hand, as far as, on the other hand, a rear wall (not illustrated) which faces away from theseat surface 2, are likewise designed to have in each case a constant cross-section. - According to
FIGS. 1 and 3 , theventilation ducts 3 and theventilation channels 5 are arranged regularly, i.e. essentially symmetrically to a central vertical plane of thevehicle seat 1. A solid line here indicates aventilation duct 3 or aventilation channel 5 through which the flow passes to ventilate thevehicle seat 1, whereasventilation ducts 3 orventilation channels 5 shown by dashed lines, i.e. shown by a broken line, are either not provided or else are closed. - According to the invention, it is provided that a certain arrangement of the
ventilation ducts 3 and/orventilation channels 5, i.e., for example, a layer, a density (number per unit of area) and/or a cross section, definesregions 6 in the cushion core which are ventilated to different extents and are adapted to a ventilation requirement of a standard vehicle occupant (not illustrated). Considered in more detail, this means that a strength of the ventilation of thevehicle seat 1 are adapted to standardized anatomy data of the human body. Such an adaptation of the ventilation requirement can be undertaken, for example, with reference to a body pressure distribution 7 (compareFIG. 2 ). A body pressure distribution of this type separatesseat regions 6′, in which a ventilation is required, andseat regions 6″, in which only a low ventilation if any at all is required. In addition, of course, a further refinement of theregions 6′ into further regions (not illustrated) which are ventilated to different extents is possible. A further subdivision into more refined regions can take place, for example, according toFIG. 2 , with reference to a color card or grayscale card generated by thebody pressure distribution 7. - According to
FIG. 1 andFIG. 3 , theventilation ducts 3 and theventilation channels 5 are not arranged or are closed in theregions 6″, in which no ventilation is required. - In
regions 6′ in which a significantly greater ventilation is required in order to remove sweat moisture, theventilation ducts 3 and theventilation channels 5 can have, for example, a larger cross section and/or a denser arrangement. By contrast, inregions 6′, in which a lower ventilation is required, theventilation ducts 3 and theventilation channels 4 can have a smaller cross section or a position further away from one another. - The
seat pressure distribution 7 according toFIG. 2 corresponds, for example, to an average seat pressure distribution (e.g. 95% percentile) and, as a result, is anatomically suitable for a great majority of the vehicle occupants. The adaptation of the cross section of theventilation channels 5 and of theventilation ducts 3 and the density of the position of the same can take place proportionally to a color scale of theseat pressure distribution 7. - In addition it is conceivable that the
vehicle seat 1 is designed as a passivelyventilation vehicle seat 1, in which a ventilation of thecushion core 4 is brought about only by convective flow or by a movement of the vehicle occupant on thevehicle seat 1 during the journey. By contrast, however, a design of thevehicle seat 1 as an actively ventilatedvehicle seat 1 is also conceivable, with, in this connection, at least one fan (not illustrated) or a miniature ventilator (likewise not illustrated) being provided. A design of an actively ventilatedvehicle seat 1 provides the advantage of being able to ensure an increased dehumidifying capacity and, as a result, of also being able to reliably remove increased amounts of sweat moisture which arises. A combination of actively and passively ventilatedvehicle seat 1 is also conceivable, in which case, after the fan is switched off, the actively ventilatedvehicle seat 1 is automatically transferred into a passively ventilatedvehicle seat 1, and vice versa. - According to
FIG. 1 andFIG. 3 , theventilation ducts 3 and theventilation channels 5 run essentially regularly, with, in addition, or alternatively, a symmetric or irregularly arrangedventilation ducts 3 andventilation channels 5 also being conceivable. - In summary, the essential features of the solution according to the invention can be characterized as follows:
- The invention makes provision, in the case of a
vehicle seat 1 with acushion core 4, in whichventilation ducts 3 andventilation channels 5 in each case having a constant cross section run, forregions 6 which are ventilated to different extents to be defined by a predetermined arrangement of theventilation ducts 3 and/or theventilation channels 5. Theregions 6 defined in such a manner are adapted to a ventilation requirement of a standard vehicle occupant, for example with reference to abody pressure distribution 7 or with reference to body contact points. - The
ventilation ducts 3 run along and on the inside of thecushion core 4 or aseat surface 2 and/or a backrest surface, with theventilation channels 5, which in each case have a constant cross section and penetrate the entire thickness of thecushion core 4, running essentially transversely thereto. - By means of the solution according to the invention, a ventilation is required of
individual regions seat surface 2 on the backrest surface of thevehicle seat 1 is achieved and, as a result, a ventilation capacity is adapted to the particular requirements, for example a sweat moisture occurrence. By this means, it is possible to reliably remove the sweat moisture which occurs and, as a result, to impart a comfortable seat sensation to the vehicle occupant.
