    Abstract: Provided are a heating structure and a steering wheel including the heating structure. The heating structure includes a substrate layer and a heating wire paved fixedly to the substrate layer by an adhesive. The heating wire is provided with multiple bent portions. The bent portions is in a shape formed by squeezing and bending the heating wire. The heating structure is configured to be arranged between a rim and an outer skin of a steering wheel. The heating structure is simpler in processing process, results in a higher yield and has a better heating effect. No scratches and visible veins will be created on the surface of the steering wheel, so that the product has an improved appearance.

    Abstract: A pump valve module and operating method, a solenoid valve-based pump valve module for providing a massage function for a vehicle seat, and a vehicle seat are disclosed. A composite solenoid valve in the pump valve module includes deflation solenoid valve and inflation solenoid valve connected in series and formed integrally by injection molding. A first part region of the inflation solenoid valve is connected to air source. A second part region of the deflation solenoid valve is connected to inflated bag. A second part region of the inflation solenoid valve is connected to a first part region of the deflation solenoid valve. Inflation is implemented when the inflation solenoid valve is powered on and the deflation solenoid valve is de-energized. Deflation is implemented through a third part region of the deflation solenoid valve when the inflation solenoid valve is de-energized and the deflation solenoid valve is powered on.

    Abstract: A softness adjusting device for a vehicle seat is arranged under the seat cover of the vehicle seat and includes a soft inflatable bag and a valve component arranged outside the soft inflatable bag. The valve component includes a throttle valve and a one-way check valve. The throttle valve is configured to block or communicate a gas in the soft inflatable bag from or with an external air source. The one-way check valve provides a flow direction from outside to inside and is configured to fill the soft inflatable bag with the external air source when the pressure of the external air source is greater than air pressure in the cavity of the soft inflatable bag. The soft inflatable bag is filled with at least one flexible filler.
