Abstract: An occupancy sensor has three layers. The bottom layer contains two electrodes, and a resistive element between the electrodes. The middle layer is a spacer. The top layer is a third electrode, divided into two parts. When a person sits on the sensor, both parts of the third layer contact the resistive element. This causes current to flow through all of the electrodes. Accordingly, occupancy can be detected by measuring current flow through the electrodes. The device additionally provides heating via the resistive element. The sensor can be arranged in a vehicle seat.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multifunction product for providing at least two functions in a functional zone. It is provided that the multifunction product has at least two different types of a functional device from the following group: A temperature control, a cooling device, a heater unit, an air-conditioning unit, a ventilation unit, and an electrical circuit.

Abstract: A vehicle seat including at least one pad (12) having an air-permeable surface area (16). In the region of the air-permeable surface area (16) of the pad, an air-permeable heating element (18) is arranged to heat the surface area (16) of the pad. A fan unit (24) blows air through the heating element (18) and the surface area (16) of the pad. A first temperature sensor (26) detects the temperature of the surface area (16) or of the heating element (18). A second temperature sensor (30) detects the temperature of the air aspirated by the fan (24). A fan regulator (32) regulates the volume flow of air as a function of the temperature detected by the second temperature sensor (30).

Abstract: A ventilation device for the seat (2, 3) of a motor vehicle (1) which has an electrically driven fan (3, 5), the vehicle (1) having a solar cell arrangement (8) which, with the vehicle (1) turned off, provides a supply of solar generated power for operation of the fan (3, 5).

Abstract: The presented invention concerns a seat that is equipped with at least one vented and heated ventilation area (3, 4) and at least one additional heated heating surface (5 through 8) on its surface. In order to improve seat temperature comfort, the temperature of the seat surface in the ventilation area (3, 4) can be regulated independently of the temperature of the heating surface (5 through 8).

Abstract: An air conditioning device for a seat comprises an air-permeable base body which is fitted under a seat surface, and a heating element fitted in the base body, or between the seat surface and the base body. The base body and the heating element are mat-shaped. They are arranged substantially parallel to each other, and have substantially equal surface areas.

Abstract: The conditioned seat, has at least one seat contact surface (31), the outer side of which faces towards part of a passenger in the seat. An air-conditioning device (18) supplies conditioned air to the region of the inner side of the seat contact surface (31). An electrical heating element (24) is arranged in the region of the inner side of the seat contact surface (31) for warming the seat contact surface (31). A temperature sensor (28) detects the temperature in the region of the seat contact surface (31). For achieving a fast adjustment of the seat temperature to a preset desired temperature independent from the ambient temperature a controlling system (20) is provide which is in connection both with the air-conditioning device (18) and with the electrical heating element (24) and controls these corresponding to a pre-set desired temperature value in dependence on the temperature measured by the temperature sensor (28).
