Abstract

See full text

A device and a method for adapting a contour of a back element to a posture of a person. The device includes a seat element and aback element connected to the seat element in a tiltable way, for accommodating a person, and a control unit. A bearing pressure sensor is configured for measuring an actual bearing pressure distribution exerted by the person. The back element includes a first actuating element for changing the contour of the back element. The control unit selects a predetermined posture and a characteristic target posture parameter matching the predetermined posture, calculates an actual posture parameter from the actual bearing pressure distribution and compares the actual posture parameter with the target posture parameter, and when the actual posture parameter and the target posture parameter match, actuates the first actuating element to adapt the contour of the back element to the posture of the person.
