Patent number: 12351089Abstract: A vehicle seat comprising at least one seat element in which at least one heating device and at least one ventilation device are provided. The vehicle seat comprises a sensor device, which has at least one temperature sensor and at least one moisture sensor. A closed-loop/open-loop control device controls the heating device and/or the ventilation device in an open-loop or closed-loop manner on the basis of the data from the sensor device with respect to the comfort parameters of temperature and/or moisture content, whereby the seat climate can be actively controlled in an open-loop or closed-loop manner.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2019Date of Patent: July 8, 2025Assignee: GRAMMER AGInventors: Roland Übelacker, Konstantin Krivenkov
