Abstract
A device for air-conditioning the backrest or the seat area of a motor vehicle seat has an insert that rests in a recess of a cushion component of the vehicle seat. The insert has an air distribution layer that is covered by (a) an upper cover layer at the top side area that points away from the base area of the recess and (b) a lower cover layer arranged at the side of the air distribution layer that points toward the base area of the recess. The lower cover layer has at least one strap section that protrudes beyond the outer circumference of the air distribution layer. This cover layer has a width that corresponds approximately to the thickness of the air distribution layer and rests on a circumferential area of the air distribution layer that is associated with the strap section and at least partly covers this circumferential area.
