Abstract

A device for pneumatically adjusting a seat in a transport vehicle, in particular in a motor vehicle, including one or more adjusting devices, each of which includes a pneumatic actuating device for adjusting the seat by generating pneumatic pressure, and including a trigger device, which the actuating device is switched from a standby state to an active state in response to a trigger signal when the device is being operated. The pneumatic actuating device brings about an adjustment of the seat in the active state. The pneumatic actuating device is designed such that the actuating device is mechanically preloaded in the standby state, and the mechanical preload is released in the active state in order to thus bring about the adjustment of the seat.
