Embodiment 1

[0060] Regarding the heating and cooling seat of Embodiment 1, based on figure 1 and figure 2 Be explained. figure 1 A heated and cooled seat 10 indicated by a phantom line in , is composed of a seat cushion 11 and a seat back 12 . This heated and cooled seat 10 is mounted on a vehicle such as an automobile, for example. Hereinafter, the heated and cooled seat 10 is simply referred to as a "seat 10". In addition, the presence or absence of the seat back 12 is optional.

[0061] When the upper surface of the seat cushion 11 , that is, the seating surface 11 a is viewed from above, the area 11 b not covered by the seat back 12 is a portion where the person Mn can sit. Hereinafter, this range 11b is appropriately referred to as "the range 11b in which seating is possible in plan view in the seat cushion 11" or "the seating position 11b".

[0062] The seat cushion 11 is composed of a cushioning material 21 and a skin 22 covering the cushioning material 21 . The cushioning m...

Embodiment 2

[0086] Regarding the heating and cooling type seat of Embodiment 2, based on image 3 Be explained. image 3 and figure 2 Correspondingly expressed. The heating and cooling type seat 10A of the second embodiment is characterized in that the above-mentioned figure 1 and figure 2 The heating and cooling device 30 of the shown embodiment 1 is changed to image 3 The heating and cooling device 30A of the illustrated embodiment 2 is different from the above-mentioned figure 1 and figure 2 The structures shown are the same, so explanations are omitted.

[0087] Specifically, the basic structure of the heating and cooling device 30A of the second embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, and is characterized in that one or more Peltier elements 32 are provided on the lower surface 23 b of the support plate 23 .

[0088] For example, this heating and cooling device 30A is composed of the following components: two first heat conduction plates 31 overlapped with ...

Embodiment 3

[0098] Regarding the heating and cooling type seat of Embodiment 3, based on Figure 4 Be explained. Figure 4 and image 3 Correspondingly expressed. The heating and cooling type seat 10B of Embodiment 3 is characterized in that the above-mentioned image 3 The heating and cooling device 30A of the shown embodiment 2 is changed to Figure 4 The heating and cooling device 30B of the shown embodiment 3, due to other structures and the above-mentioned Figure 1 ~ Figure 3 The structures shown are the same, so explanations are omitted.

[0099] Specifically, the basic structure of the heating and cooling device 30B of the third embodiment is the same as that of the second embodiment, and is characterized in that a heat conduction member 34 is coupled to one or a plurality of Peltier elements 32 via a heat pipe 41 . For example, in this heating and cooling device 30B, heat pipes 41 are overlapped and joined to the lower surfaces of two second heat conduction plates 33 , and t...

Abstract

The invention provides a heating and cooling type seat. The heating and cooling type seat can improve the ride comfort of a seat and can improve heat transmission efficiency of heat conduction from a Peltier element to a seating surface. The heating and cooling type seat (10) heats or cools a heat cushion (11) through the Peltier element (32) and a heat conduction part (34) combined with the Peltier element. The Peltier element (32) is disposed in a scope that a person can seat on the seat cushion after looking down, and is located on the opposite side of the seating surface (11a) relative to the seat cushion. The heat conduction part is a flexible part, and extends from the Peltier element to the seating surface in the scope that the person can seat on the seat cushion after looking down.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a heating and cooling seat that heats or cools a seat cushion and / or a seat back by a Peltier device. Background technique [0002] When the seat is installed indoors, the comfort of the person seated on the seat can be improved by the indoor heating and cooling device. However, the air-conditioning and heating apparatuses are large-sized and their places of use are limited. In contrast, in recent years, development of a heating and cooling type seat having a heating and cooling device capable of improving the comfort of a seated person regardless of where the seat is installed has progressed. Since the heating and cooling device is assembled in the seat itself, it is required to be simple in structure and small in size and light in weight. In order to solve this point, the development of the technique which employs the Peltier element in this heating and cooling apparatus has progressed. Such a heating and cooling t...
