A heating and cooling mechanism is used in a seat assembly wherein the seat assembly includes a cellular foam pad encased by a trim cover. The mechanism includes a thermoelectric generator seated between the foam pad and the trim cover for generating heat in response to a first polarity of electrical power and generating cooling in response to a second polarity of electrical power opposite the first polarity of electrical power. A heat sink is coupled to the thermoelectric generator for dissipating heat generated by the thermoelectric generator and a fan coupled the heat sink for generating air flow to cool the mechanism. A skin layer of thermally conductive material is coupled to thermoelectric generator and seated between the foam pad and trim cover for providing uniform thermally conductive energy to the upper surface of the foam pad and trim cover. |
