  • Patent number: 9302601
    Abstract: A vehicle seat having at least one cushion element including a foam layer (1, 1?), a cover (2) and a massage device (3), wherein the massage device (3) includes one or more fluid fillable, hollow elements (3a) that are located in open recesses (1a, 1a?) of the cushion elements (1, 1?) facing the cover (2) and are designed such that when filled with fluid, the mechanical expansion of the hollow elements (3) that effect the massaging force on the vehicle seat occupant expands toward the cover (2) and is supported by a support element (4) in a direction that faces away from the cover (2), and wherein the support element (4) is arranged such that it introduces the mechanical force resulting from the expansion of the hollow element (3a) and pointing away from the cover (2) into the at least one (1) and/or both the cushion elements (1, 1?).
