Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to an electrical conductor, which is formed at least in part of an electrically conductive material, and is at least in part coated with a protective layer that at least locally has a lower electrical conductivity than the electrically conductive material of the conductor. It is envisioned that the protective layer is formed at least in part of synthetic rubber.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A vehicle seat, comprising: i. a fabric, and ii. an electrical conductor, comprising: a) a support made of an electrically non-conductive material; b) a thin protective layer; and c) a conductor; wherein the conductor is made of an electrically conductive material that covers the support, the conductor is at least in part coated with the thin protective layer, which at least locally has a lower specific electrical conductivity than the elect…
