A replacement vent clip for attachment to a louver of an air vent assembly when the air vent assembly is installed in a motor vehicle includes two posts extending rearward from a lower wall of the vent clip and a lower and upper wall spaced apart from one another to create an open back end spanning an entire width of the vent clip. The open back end includes a channel sized smaller in height than a height of an opposing horizontal louver of an air vent assembly and includes a lip arranged to move to a second greater height when engaging the horizontal louver. The two longitudinally extending, spaced apart posts align the vent clip with a vertical post of an air vent assembly. Once the louver is contained within the vent clip, the channel moves back to its original height and captures the louver within the clip.

An air quality system includes an air precleaner, a filter identification component, and a control module. The air precleaner has a precleaner housing and a filter disposed inside the precleaner housing. The filter identification component is positioned within the precleaner housing at a first position and is mounted on the filter. The control module is positioned within the precleaner housing at a second position and is configured to emit an electrical field and communicate with the filter identification component via the emitted electrical field.

A transport refrigeration system is provided. The refrigeration transportation system comprising: a refrigerated cargo space; a refrigeration unit in operative association with the refrigerated cargo space, the refrigeration unit providing conditioned air to the refrigerated cargo space; a battery system configured to power the refrigeration unit; and an auxiliary power unit configured to charge the battery system when the power level of the battery system is equal to or below a first selected power level.

A portable air purifier may include at least one blower fan which rotates with respect to a rotational shaft extending in a first direction, and includes a hub, and a plurality of fan blades radially connected around the hub; and a fan cover provided with at least one shielding plate that shields the hub, and a plurality of guide vanes that guides a discharge direction of air discharged by the at least one blower fan. A foreground of a rotational area of the plurality of fan blades forms a blowing surface, and the plurality of guide vanes may be arranged in front of the blowing surface and extend radially with respect to the rotational shaft. Each of the plurality of guide vanes may include a first guide surface positioned adjacent to the at least one blower fan and a second guide surface connected to the first guide surface and positioned further from the at least one blower fan than the first guide surface. The second guide surface may extend parallel to the first guide surface. The first guide surface may be oriented at a predetermined angle with respect to the blowing surface.

A portable air purifier may include a case having an accommodation space, a front side and a rear side of which are open; a fan assembly accommodated in the accommodation space and including a blower fan; a fan cover disposed in front of and coupled to the fan assembly in the accommodation space; and a filter module disposed behind the fan assembly in the accommodation space. The case may include a first support surface that protrudes from an inner circumferential surface of the case and disposed behind the fan cover to face the fan cover, and a second support surface that protrudes from the inner circumferential surface of the case and disposed in front of at least a portion of the filter module to face the at least a portion of the filter module. The fan cover and the filter module may be coupled in a frontward-rearward direction with the first support surface and the second support surface interposed therebetween and may be fixed to the case.

A method of detecting airflow blockage of a transport refrigeration system including the steps of: activating a heater powered by an electric generation device; measuring an output voltage of the electric generation device; determining a predicted heat output of the heater in response to the output voltage; determining a predicted temperature rise across the heater in response to the predicted heat output; detecting a measured temperature rise across the heater; and determining an airflow reduction percentage in response to the predicted temperature rise across the heater and the measured temperature rise across the heater.

There is provided with a moving body control apparatus. An image capturing unit captures a periphery of a moving body through a transmitting portion. A heater is capable of heating the transmitting portion. An air-conditioning unit switches an air-conditioning state in the moving body between an inside air circulation state and an outside air introduction state. A control unit controls the heater. An ambient temperature detection unit detects an ambient temperature. The control unit starts the operation of the heater when the ambient temperature is not more than a predetermined temperature threshold. The predetermined temperature threshold of the case in which the air-conditioning state is set to the inside air circulation state is higher than the predetermined temperature threshold in the case in which the air-conditioning state is set to the outside air introduction state.

A portable air conditioning device. The portable air conditioning device has a housing which defines a hollow interior cavity and a primary compartment. The primary compartment can store ice or other cold materials. A pump is in fluid communication with the primary compartment and pulls water that forms from the melting ice out of the primary compartment into a hollow tubing. A fan blows air across a portion of the hollow tubing and a vent enables the air to pass to a space exterior to the housing. A power source is operably connected to the fan and the pump. The portable air conditioning device can provide cool air to a user by blowing air across the tubing and through a vent, thereby providing a cooling breeze to a user, while keeping food, beverages, and similar items stored within the primary compartment at a cold temperature.

Methods and systems for operating a transport climate control system of a vehicle are provided. The method includes obtaining a state of charge of an energy storage device capable of providing power to the transport climate control system; determining an energy level including the state of charge, receiving a planned route for the vehicle, and receiving route status data associated with the planned route for the vehicle. The route status data includes traffic data, weather data, and/or geographic data identifying areas where the transport climate control system is to be solely powered by the energy storage device. The method further includes determining whether the energy level is sufficient to complete the planned route for the vehicle based on the planned route and the route data, and when the energy level is not sufficient to complete the planned route for the vehicle, providing a notification to a user via a display.

An air purifier (1) with mount for a vehicle, wherein the air purifier (1) consists of a fan in a portable housing (2, 4, 5), which has at least one air intake region (45) for sucking air into the housing (2, 4, 5) and at least one air discharge region (50) for blowing the air out of the housing (2, 4, 5), wherein a cleaned discharge air flow (51) flows out into the passenger compartment, wherein the mount consists of an adapter plate (6) that can be detachably fixed in different positions in the interior of the motor vehicle, and wherein the air purifier (1) is rotatably mounted in the adapter plate (6).
