A mounting structure for a compressor assembly of an auxiliary air conditioning system for a vehicle includes a mounting plate that includes a first surface, a second surface, a first plurality of apertures, and a second plurality of apertures. The mounting structure also includes a plurality of mounts disposed at the first surface, the plurality of mounts including a mount attached to the mounting plate via fasteners extending through the first plurality of apertures. The mounting structure also includes a mounting panel of a compressor unit of the auxiliary air conditioning system. The mounting panel includes a main portion having mounting apertures overlapping the plurality of mounts. Fasteners are disposed at the mounting apertures to attach the mounting panel to the mounting plate via the plurality of mounts.

An air-conditioning system for air-conditioning a vehicle interior is disclosed. The air-conditioning system includes a blower for generating an air flow, a heating device for heating the air flow, and a ducting system that divides the air flow downstream of the heating device over at least two part air flows and supplies the at least two part air flows via associated ducts to associated air outlets, through which the part air flows exit into the vehicle interior. The heating device includes at least two separate regions each with at least one electric heating element that is separately controllable via a control device. The at least two separate regions are each permanently assigned one of the associated ducts of the ducting system.

A road vehicle having: a passenger compartment in which a transmission tunnel is present, a right rear seat and a left rear seat; and an air conditioning system of the passenger compartment. The air conditioning system has: a rear body that is arranged in the centre of the passenger compartment at the transmission tunnel and in front of the rear seats; two air vents that are obtained in the rear body and are arranged side by side one towards the right and one towards the left, respectively; an air treatment unit that is connected to the two air vents; a single common supply duct that originates from the air treatment unit; a bifurcation that connects the common supply duct to the two air vents; a blade that is arranged in the area of the bifurcation and is movable between a completely closed position of a right branch of the bifurcation and a completely closed position of a left branch of the bifurcation; and an electric actuator configured to move the blade.

A method for servicing a blower motor installed in a heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) assembly for a motor vehicle may include rotating a scroll housing subassembly of the HVAC assembly from an installed position to an extraction position. The method may include detaching a first securing element, the first securing element being distributed on the scroll housing subassembly and an evaporator housing subassembly of the HVAC assembly. The method may include removing the scroll housing subassembly from the HVAC assembly in a direction of extraction.
