The invention relates to an upholstered element (1) for a lower seat part (2) and/or a backrest (4) of an air-conditioned motor-vehicle seat (6), comprising an elastic upholstered air-permeable base part (8) and an air-permeable air-conditioning layer (10) which is disposed on the surface of the bas

The invention relates to an upholstered element (1) for a lower seat part (2) and/or a backrest (4) of an air-conditioned motor-vehicle seat (6), comprising an elastic upholstered air-permeable base part (8) and an air-permeable air-conditioning layer (10) which is disposed on the surface of the base part (8). The air-conditioning layer (10) consists of at least two partial layers (14, 16), i.e. a lower layer (14 ) which is oriented towards the base part (8) and an upper layer (16) which is disposed on top of the lower layer (14). The upper layer (16) is made of a material which absorbs moisture. Preferably, an intermediate layer (22) made of an air-permeable material is disposed between the base part (8) and the lower layer (14). The lower layer (14) is relatively softer and the intermediate layer (22, 22a) is relatively harder, whereby the lower layer (14) and intermediate layer (22) are prevented from being pressed into holes (18) in the base part ( 8) when the seat is occupied.

The cushion part of claim 1 wherein the lower layer of the air-conditioning layer has a high elastic restoring force and a high air and water-vapor permeability. 11. The cushion part of claim 1 wherein the base part has a main seat plane and a seat surface and wherein the plurality of holes are distributed over the seat surface and extend continuously through the base part in a direction perpendicular with respect to the main seat plane. 12. The cushion part of claim 11, further comprising an air-permeable intermediate layer located between the base part and the lower layer. 13. The cushion part of claim 12, wherein the lower layer is softer than the intermediate layer and the intermediate layer is hard enough to prevent the lower layer and the intermediate layer from being pressed into the plurality of holes of the base part when the vehicle seat is subjected to a load. 14. The cushion part of claim 13, wherein the lower layer has a compression hardness ranging from approximately 5 kPa to approximately 15 kPa. 15. The cushion part of claim 13, wherein the intermediate layer has a compression hardness ranging from approximately 20 kPa to approximately 50 kPa. 16.
