189 Seat heating and cooling system US11242155 2005-10-03 US20060027357A1 2006-02-09 Chris McKenzie; Danny Bates
An apparatus for selectively heating and cooling (temperature conditioning) a seat on a vehicle, where the seat is exposed to the environment. A thermoelectric device selectively heats and cools a heat exchanger filled with a liquid. The heat exchanger includes, in one embodiment, an air trap chamber. The liquid is forced through a heat exchanger in the seat by a pump. The coil transfers heat by conduction through the seat to the seat's occupant. A controller permits selection of the amount of heating or cooling of the liquid. A switch determines the polarity of the voltage applied to the thermoelectric device, which determines whether the liquid is heated or cooled.

A heater-installed grip for a vehicle includes substantially semi-cylindrical inner pieces (33.sub.1, 33.sub.2) of a synthetic resin which have a planar heater (34.sub.L, 34.sub.R ; 174.sub.L, 174.sub.R ; 184) wound around an outer periphery thereof and which are integrally embedded in a cylindrical grip body (35) made of a rubber assembled to a pipe-shaped steering handlebar (26) or a throttle pipe (79). In this heater-installed grip, a circumferentially central portion of each of the inner pieces (33.sub.1, 33.sub.2) is formed at a large wall thickness, as compared with circumferentially opposite ends thereof. Thus, the assemblability of the grip body (35) to the pipe-shaped steering handlebar (26) or the throttle pipe (79) is enhanced, while ensuring a die-clamping strength in a process for forming the grip body (35).
196 Method of making a handgrip with built-in heater for motorcycle US665347 1996-06-17 US5735037A 1998-04-07 Toru Ogata
A handgrip with a built-in heater for a motorcycle constituted by a hollow cylindrical handgrip body, wherein a flexible printed circuit heater is wound around an outer periphery of a synthetic resin inner piece of a substantially hollow cylindrical shape with a hollow cylindrical or peripheral portion slotted, and a cladding rubber layer is integrally molded thereon to cause the heater to extend between the inner piece and the cladding rubber layer. The heater is wound over a range covering a half circumference or more but less than a full circumference of the inner piece. The cladding rubber layer is molded in such a form that a region where the heater is not wound faces parting positions of mold halves for forming the cladding rubber layer so as to prevent the occurrence of turn-ups and creases. In addition, an outer peripheral portion of the inner piece facing the parting positions is chamfered, whereby the thickness of the cladding rubber layer at a chamfered portion is made large to force any crease which occurs to be formed in the chamfered portion of the heater.
