Abstract: A thermoelectric device has a foam substrate, thermoelectric elements and metallic foil strip assemblies. The foam substrate has apertures therein. The thermoelectric elements are inserted into the apertures. The metallic foil strip assemblies include upper and lower foil strips. A first end of a first upper foil strip is inserted into a first aperture contacting an upper heat transferring surface of the first thermoelectric element. A second end is inserted into a second aperture contacting an upper heat transferring surface of a second thermoelectric element with an elongated portion of the metallic foil strip assembly extending between the first aperture and the second aperture along the upper surface. A first end of a second upper foil strip is inserted into the second aperture contacting the upper heat transferring surface of the second thermoelectric element and a second end is similarly inserted into a third aperture.

Abstract: A seat movement prevention system for a vehicle includes a seat, an actuator, a switch and an electronic controller. The seat is configured to move from a first position to a second position. The second position is different from the first position The actuator is configured to move the seat from the first position to the second position. The switch is configured to operate the actuator. The electronic controller is configured to disable the switch upon detecting a current shift position is not a park shift position.

Abstract: A seat portion has a passenger receiving surface coinciding with a first plane. The seat portion has a resilient cushioning material with a recessed area defined therein. A tether wire for securing child seat is located within the recessed area. A tether cover assembly has a housing defining a door opening and at least one door configured to move from a closed position concealing the tether wire and the door opening, and an open position exposing the tether wire and the door opening. The housing is installed within the recessed area such that with the door in the closed position the door coincides with or is parallel to the first plane. Movement of the door from the closed position to the open position includes the door moving along a path that coincides with or is parallel to the first plane.
