HOT WATER SEAT SYSTEM OF FUEL CELL VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18172011 titled 'HOT WATER SEAT SYSTEM OF FUEL CELL VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a hot water seat system for a fuel cell vehicle that includes a hot water circulating part to adjust the temperature of hot water to a preset target temperature range, a processor to control the flow of hot water, and a hot water seat with a hot water pipe.

  • The hot water circulating part adjusts the temperature of hot water flowing through it to a preset target temperature range.
  • The processor controls the flow of hot water to ensure it is at the desired temperature.
  • The hot water seat receives the temperature-adjusted hot water from the circulating part via a hot water pipe.
  • The hot water circulating part consists of a first water tank to receive hot water from the fuel cell stack and a second water tank to supply the temperature-adjusted hot water to the hot water seat.

      1. Potential Applications
  • This technology can be used in fuel cell vehicles to provide heated seats for increased comfort during cold weather.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Ensures that the hot water used in the hot water seat system is at the desired temperature range for optimal comfort.
  • Provides a controlled flow of hot water to prevent overheating or underheating of the seats.
      1. Benefits
  • Increased comfort for passengers in fuel cell vehicles during cold weather.
  • Efficient use of hot water to maintain the desired temperature range in the hot water seat system.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is a hot water seat system of a fuel cell vehicle including a hot water circulating part configured to adjust a temperature of hot water to a preset target temperature range, a processor configured to control a flow of the hot water, and a hot water seat having a hot water pipe, in which the temperature adjusted hot water flows via the hot water circulating part, and the hot water circulating part includes a first water tank configured to receive the hot water discharged from the fuel cell stack, and a second water tank configured to supply the temperature adjusted hot water in the target temperature range to the hot water seat.
