Recently, it was reported that Tesla Motors recently obtained a new patent for a temperature regulation system for car seats. This system and the previous temperature regulation system is completely different, can provide more accurate temperature regulation, allowing users to better adjust the temperature, and the adjustment system uses a new structure and the previous structure is completely different, the new structure will be the first time to use fluid temperature regulation, it can be said that it is another subversive innovation.
The traditional seat temperature adjustment, generally placed in the seat heating wire, after the power will heat the seat, in the cold season, can make the cold seat become warm, and can also be adjusted by the switch temperature, but the use of time can not be too long, long-term heating will make people feel uncomfortable. More advanced also comes with a seat ventilation system, which can drive the internal air flow through the ventilation motor in the seat during the hot season, thus lowering the temperature of the back, but the overall heating and ventilation efficiency is not very high.
Tesla obviously sees these deficiencies, and is not satisfied with the working conditions of this function, the thermal efficiency is low, the ventilation efficiency is low, only because the original structure can not carry out effective heat conduction, to better temperature control of the seat, it is necessary to adopt a new model, and what is currently known is that there will be fluid entering the seat in the new mode, heating the fluid through the heating element, and driving the fluid flow through the fluid pump. Of course, the seat material will also use new materials to increase thermal conductivity.
This set of seat temperature control system is mainly composed of fluid pump and heating components, not only can effectively improve the efficiency of seat temperature adjustment, but also can effectively reduce the manufacturing cost of the vehicle, and reduce the noise in the car, but the current system has not yet revealed which model will be used first, but the traditional seat temperature control system is inefficient, and it is inevitable to be replaced in the new energy era.
