Abstract:
The present invention provides a ventilated seating system. The ventilated seating system provides a back rest portion including an upper end and a lower end and a perforated duct positioned adjacent to the lower end of the back rest portion. The ventilated seating system further provides a seat base portion including a front end and a back end with the back end positioned adjacent to the perforated duct, and wherein air is drawn across a surface of the seat base portion and a surface of the back rest portion without passing through the seat base and the back rest portions, and into the perforated duct. The ventilated seating system may utilize a pressure differential to draw the air into the duct. To enhance operation, the system may further include adjustable perforated ducts. The adjustable perforated ducts may be adjusted manually or mechanically.
