An air flow device for an instrument panel which blows an air from the instrument panel at a front of a vehicle compartment of an automobile to make the air flow to the vehicle compartment, includes a blower, a blower outlet on the instrument panel, from which an air sent from the blower to which the blower outlet is coupled is blown to the vehicle compartment, and a blower inlet on the instrument panel for the blower outlet, into which the air blown from the blower outlet is drawn. The blower outlet is installed so as to open to the blower inlet along a surface of the instrument panel while the blower inlet is installed so as to open to the blower outlet along the surface of the instrument panel.

A system for controlling inside/outside air in air conditioner may include an air conditioner including an upward discharge passage, through which air is discharged toward a front glass of a vehicle, a downward discharge passage, through which air is discharged toward a floor of the vehicle, the upward discharge passage and the downward discharge passage being separated from each other, a first intake door, an opening amount of which is determined according to a ratio between inside air and outside air introduced into the upward discharge passage, and a second intake door, an opening amount of which is determined according to a ratio between inside air and outside air introduced into the downward discharge passage; and a control unit configured of controlling the opening amounts of the first and second intake doors according to a heating load of the air conditioner and a humidity of the interior of the vehicle.

The present invention relates to an air conditioner for a vehicle, which can send air-conditioned air toward a rear seat of the vehicle in order to perform air-conditioning of a front seat of the vehicle and air-conditioning of a rear seat. The air conditioner includes an air passageway formed in an air-conditioning case, wherein the air passageway includes: a rear seat cold air passageway which is a passageway that the air passed through the heat exchanger for cooling bypasses the heat exchanger for heating and flows toward a rear seat of the vehicle; and a warm air passageway which is a passageway that the air passed through the heat exchanger for cooling passes through the heat exchanger for heating and flows toward a front seat or the rear seat of the vehicle. The air conditioner includes a rear seat temperature adjusting door for controlling an amount of air flowing from the warm air passageway to the rear seat air outlet and an amount of air flowing from the rear seat cold air passageway to the rear seat air outlet.

A motor vehicle includes a motor compartment, a passenger compartment and a firewall separating the motor compartment from the passenger compartment. The motor vehicle also includes a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system. That heating, ventilation and air conditioning system includes an HVAC inlet subassembly and an HVAC air distribution subassembly in the passenger compartment and a transition duct in the motor compartment directing an airstream from the HVAC inlet subassembly to the HVAC air distribution subassembly.

A vehicular air conditioning system includes: a heat pump side refrigerant circulation line including a compressor, a water-cooled heat exchanger, a heat pump mode expansion valve, an air-cooled heat exchanger, an air conditioner mode expansion valve and an evaporator, the heat pump side refrigerant circulation line configured to generate cold energy in the evaporator in an air conditioner mode and to generate heat in the water-cooled heat exchanger in a heat pump mode, the air-cooled heat exchanger configured to allow a refrigerant to exchange heat with an ambient air in the air conditioner mode and the heat pump mode; and a heat exchange air switching part configured to switch the type of the air heat-exchanged in the air-cooled heat exchanger depending on the air conditioner mode or the heat pump mode.

A vehicle air conditioning device comprises an instrument panel, a door that includes an overlapping portion where part of the door overlaps with the instrument panel in a closed state of the door, and a door blower outlet that opens toward a vehicle cabin interior, a first opening that is open toward the door, a second opening that is open toward the instrument panel, an air conditioning unit body, a first duct that that has a length direction end portion connected to the first opening, a second duct that has a length direction end portion connected to the door blower outlet, and a fin member respectively provided at the first opening and the second opening.

A vehicle includes a body structure defining a front trunk having a front opening. A grille coves the front opening in a closed position and is pivotable about a vertical hinge, or a horizontal hinge along a top edge, secured to the body structure to provide access to the front opening. The grille may include a bin mounted on an inner surface of the grille and pivotable with the grille, a heating/cooling duct or a video display.

In the application, since the flow of air outside the vehicle compartment flowing through the upstream heat exchange part and the flow of air outside the vehicle compartment flowing through the downstream heat exchange part are opposite flows, a second heat exchanger through which the air outside the vehicle compartment flowing from the first fan through the downstream heat exchange part flows, a first heat exchanger is an orthogonal heat exchanger, the second heat exchanger that is a component of a refrigeration cycle execution system, the air in the vehicle compartment, which flows in from the inside air inlet by the rotation of the second fan and is discharged from the outlet outside the vehicle through the first heat exchanger, and the air outside the vehicle compartment, are exchanged with the first heat exchanger, it can be miniaturized along with the improvement of electricity cost.

An air conditioner for a vehicle includes: a casing; an air blower; and a mode switching portion switching an inlet mode to draw air into the casing and an outlet mode to blow out air to the vehicle interior. The casing has a driver seat inlet port from which air in a space adjacent to a driver seat is drawn in. The mode switching portion is configured to be switchable between a normal mode during which air drawn in from at least one of air inlets is blown out from both of a driver seat outlet and a passenger seat outlet and a driver seat mode during which air drawn in from the driver seat inlet port is blown out from the driver seat outlet. The driver seat inlet port is located in a region exposed to the space adjacent to the driver seat.

Air conditioning system for a vehicle which includes an air-conditioning module having an air-conditioning case, which has a cold air passageway and a warm air passageway partitioned from each other, and a blower unit, and an indoor air inflow duct for introducing indoor air of the interior of the vehicle into the blower unit. An outlet of the air-conditioning case and an inlet of the indoor air inflow port are arranged to be adjacent to each other, so that the air conditioning system for a vehicle can be installed through just one through hole part formed in a dash panel.
