A ventilation device for the inside of a motor vehicle, having at least one air outflow element and at least one associated directional element. The at least one air outflow element is provided in a functional arrangement with an air channel element. The air channel element represents the connection to a supply device as part of an air conditioning system. At least one light element is also provided. The arrangement of the at least one directional element and the at least one air outflow element work together so that the ventilation device can be continuously adjusted at least between two inside ventilation conditions. The at least two ventilation conditions respectively differ at least by means of a direction of outflowing air directed directly into the inside and directed indirectly along a roof liner designed for this reason in relation to a seat region of the motor vehicle.

An air conditioner is disposed in a vehicle in which a driving device of a traveling power source is housed in an outer space separated from a cabin by a partition wall. The air conditioner includes: a temperature control unit that controls a temperature of air blown into the cabin; and plural air distribution ducts connected to the temperature control unit to guide temperature-controlled air having a temperature controlled by the temperature control unit to predetermined positions in the cabin. The temperature control unit is disposed in the outer space together with the driving device. Intermediate parts of the air distribution ducts located at least between the outer space and the cabin are bundled together and extended through a single insertion hole formed in the partition wall.

According to the present invention, a wind direction control device is provided. The wind direction control device comprises a detector configured to detect a hand; a wind direction adjustment unit configured to adjust an air blowing direction of an air conditioner; and a controller configured to control the wind direction adjustment unit so that a direction of the hand detected by the detector is set as the air blowing direction.

The present embodiments relate to an air distribution apparatus for distributing conditioned airflow from a roof mounted air conditioner to the inside of a vehicle, which includes an inlet port adapted to receive the conditioned airflow from the roof mounted air conditioner. An outlet port, which is disposed adjacent to each longitudinal end of the apparatus, delivers conditioned airflow to the vehicle. An internal supply duct is adapted to evenly split the conditioned airflow to the outlet ports.

A vehicular heat management system includes a refrigerant circulation line, a cooling water circulation line configured to heat a passenger compartment with waste heat of an engine by allowing cooling water of the engine to circulate through a heater core, and a hot air supply source selection unit configured to, when a hot air needs to be supplied into the passenger compartment in an air conditioner mode in which a refrigerant in the refrigerant circulation line flows through a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an expansion valve and an indoor heat exchanger so as to cool the passenger compartment with a cold air generated by the refrigerant in the indoor heat exchanger, select one of heat generated from the refrigerant in the compressor and heat generated from the cooling water in the engine, as a hot air supply source for supplying the hot air into the passenger compartment.

A climate control system includes an outlet shutoff mechanism and an HVAC plenum delivering conditioned air to the outlet shutoff mechanism. The outlet shutoff mechanism includes a housing, having a guideway and a first air discharge outlet, a flexible door, displaceable along the guideway between a first position and a second position, and an actuator feature to displace the flexible door.

The present invention relates to an air conditioner for a vehicle, which can remarkably improve resistance against an air flow in an air passageway, thereby enhancing efficiency. The air conditioner for a vehicle includes: a case having an air inlet, an air outlet, and an air passageway formed therein; a blower unit for blowing air to the air inlet; and a cooling means and a heating means disposed in the air passageway of the case in an air flow direction in order, wherein the air outlet of the case includes a floor outlet and vent outlets, the floor outlet and the vent outlets are arranged below the heating means in a height direction, and the floor outlet is arranged within a range of the width of the heating means.

An arrangement is provided for heating a vehicle interior of a motor vehicle. The arrangement comprises an air duct extending along a direction of extension and being defined by a duct housing, for air to flow through, which, in a cross section perpendicular to the direction of extension, comprises a first duct zone, via which the air can be introduced into a first interior zone of the vehicle interior, and a second duct zone, via which the air can be introduced into a second interior zone of the vehicle interior. The arrangement further comprises at least one heating device arranged in the air duct, comprising a plurality of heating sections, which extend at right angles to the direction of extension in the air duct (and have electrical PTC heating elements.

A vehicle heating, ventilating and/or air conditioning device (10) comprising a housing (12), in which at least two hot-air guiding ducts (18, 19) are formed for different vehicle interior regions, the hot-air guiding ducts (18, 19) being separated by a housing wall (28). A common heating device (30) and a common air treatment element (32) are provided which are arranged in each case in both hot-air guiding ducts (18, 19), the air treatment element (32) being arranged in the air flow downstream of the heating device (30). The air treatment element (32) has a dividing wall (34) which divides the air treatment element (32) into at least two part regions which are assigned to in each case one hot-air guiding duct (18, 19).

An air conditioning unit for a vehicle includes: an air conditioning case, a blower that draws air from an opening and blows the air radially outward from its rotation axis, a cooler disposed upstream of the blower, and a heater is disposed downstream of the blower. The air conditioning case includes an upper bypass passage through which the air bypasses the heater on an upper side of the heater, a lower bypass passage through which the air bypasses the heater on a lower side of the heater, a first opening provided downstream of the upper bypass passage, and a second opening provided downstream of the lower bypass passage. The opening of the blower faces an air outflow face of the cooler. A passage area of the upper bypass passage is larger than a passage area of the lower bypass passage.
