Abstract:
A vehicle seat cushion assembly includes a first foam pad defining a ventilating column disposed therethrough, a topper pad disposed over the first foam pad, and a second foam pad disposed adjacent the first foam pad. The second foam pad and the first foam pad define a flow channel in fluid communication with the ventilating column. A thermally conductive tape includes a thermoelectric device disposed between the first foam pad and the topper pad. The thermoelectric device is disposed near an end of the ventilating column. An air mover moves air from an air intake of the flow channel to an air exhaust of the flow channel.

Claim (Index 18):
A method of making a cushion assembly, the method comprising:\n forming a first foam pad; forming a plurality of unobstructed ventilating air columns through the first foam pad; forming a second foam pad; forming the plurality of unobstructed ventilating air columns through the second foam pad; operably coupling the second foam pad with the first foam pad to define flow channels between the first foam pad and the second foam pad, the flow channels being in fluid communication with the unobstructed ventilating air columns; placing thermoelectric devices proximate a first surface of the first foam pad and at least a portion of the plurality of unobstructed ventilating air columns; and coupling an air mover to the flow channels to move air to the thermoelectric devices.
