Abstract
A seating assembly includes a seatback defining an enlarged elongate vertical aperture. A bladeless fan is disposed in the elongate vertical aperture. The bladeless fan includes a base with an air mover disposed therein. A bladeless air loop is in fluid communication with the base. An open lattice cushion support is disposed on the seatback. The open lattice cushion support is exposed from a rear portion of the seatback and is configured to allow air from the bladeless fan to move from a rearward portion of a seat, through the open lattice cushion support and into contact with an occupant resting against the seatback.
