Vehicle air-conditioner—unit attachment—part structure
In a vehicle air-conditioner-unit attachment-part structure, an air conditioner unit is arranged to face a rear surface of a dashboard and on an occupant room side. An air conditioner unit-side fixation part that is provided on a unit case is attached to a vehicle body-side fixed part at a more vehicle rearward position than the dashboard. A displacement acceptance part that accepts a movement to a vehicle rearward direction of the unit case with respect to the vehicle body-side fixed part is provided between the air conditioner unit-side fixation part and the vehicle body-side fixed part when an impact load is input to the unit case via the dashboard from a vehicle frontward direction.
Climate control system and method for motor vehicle with removable roof and side doors
A climate control system includes a plurality of vent registers, an HVAC unit delivering conditioned air to the plurality of vent registers, a side door status monitoring device and a controller configured to control opening and closing of the plurality of vent registers in response to side door status data provided by the side door status monitoring device. A related climate control method is also provided.
Universal mode plate
A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system including an HVAC assembly, a set of pins, mode doors, a mode plate, an actuator, and an HVAC control module. The mode doors control airflow from the HVAC assembly. A position of each mode door is controlled by a corresponding pin of the set of pins. The mode plate includes (i) a set of grooves, (ii) a first adjustment path and (iii) a second adjustment path. The first adjustment path causes a first pin of the set of pins to move toward a center. The second adjustment path causes the first pin to move away from the center of the mode plate. An HVAC module selectively actuates the actuator to causes the mode plate to rotate in at least one of a passive direction and the active direction in response to receiving a mode request.
Earth working machine having an operating console with improved vandalism protection
An earth working machine (10), having a propelling unit (22) and a machine frame (12) carried by the propelling unit (22), comprises a working apparatus (32) for earth working; an operator's platform (24), having an operating console (26) comprising a console body (52) and an operating panel (54, 66) that is movable relative to the console body (52) and has at least one operating element (58) associated or associatable with a functional device (32, 39) for control thereof. The operating panel (54, 66) is displaceable into a stowed position in which the at least one operating element (58) is covered by a portion (56a, 72a) of the console body (52.
Air conditioning unit for vehicle having air conditioning case with backflow prevention rib
An air conditioning unit for a vehicle includes an air conditioning case, a blower, a cooler including a core, and a drain port that drains condensed water generated in the cooler from the air conditioning case. A bottom surface of the air conditioning case defines a drain path extending from a boundary between the blower and the air conditioning case to the drain port. The drain path is inclined downward toward the drain port. A backflow prevention rib protrudes from the bottom surface to extend along a direction intersecting with a width direction of the air conditioning case. The backflow prevention rib is configured to guide the condensed water to the drain port. The backflow prevention rib is located below a virtual line that extends from the boundary to a lower end of an upstream surface of the core.
Air conditioning device for vehicle
An air conditioning device for a vehicle includes a seat air conditioning unit that blows out air from a front side of a seat and an interior air conditioning unit that blows out air whose temperature has been adjusted by a cooling heat exchanger and a heating heat exchanger toward the vehicle interior space. The air conditioning device for a vehicle includes a first duct member for guiding the air flowing between the cooling heat exchanger and the heating heat exchanger in the interior air conditioning unit to the seat air conditioning unit. The air conditioning device for a vehicle further includes a second duct member for guiding the air higher in temperature than the air flowing between the cooling heat exchanger and the heating heat exchanger to the seat air conditioning unit.
HVAC INSTRUMENT PANEL BRACKET
A structural instrument panel member for an instrument panel assembly of a vehicle comprises a cross beam, a steering column support, a first and second HVAC duct, and a first dash panel mount. The cross beam mount has a first surface, a first side, a second side and a first, second, third, fourth and fifth walls. The cross beam mount is fastened to a cross beam of the vehicle. The steering column support extends from the first side of the cross beam mount. The first and second HVAC duct each have a first end and a second end. The first HVAC duct is disposed on the second side of the cross beam mount and the second HVAC duct is disposed adjacent the first HVAC duct. The first dash panel mount extends from the first HVAC duct and fastened to a dash panel of the vehicle.
BLOWER UNIT OF AIR CONDITIONER FOR VEHICLE
The present invention relates to a blower unit of an air conditioner for a vehicle, which can effectively prevent water from being introduced into a motor and has a motor housing and a blower wheel improved to smoothly perform cooling of the motor. The blower unit of a two-layered air conditioner for a vehicle, which can divide and inhale indoor air and outdoor air, includes: a scroll case having an upper passageway and a lower passageway; a first blower wheel disposed in the upper passageway; a second blower wheel disposed in the lower passageway and arranged below the first blower wheel; a blower motor for rotating the first blower wheel and the second blower wheel; and a motor housing for covering the blower motor, wherein a hub for guiding air is disposed on the second blower wheel, and the hub of the second blower wheel is partially overlapped with an end portion of the motor housing.
VEHICLE HVAC SYSTEM
A vehicle heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) unit. The vehicle HVAC unit includes an evaporator, a driver side face outlet, and a passenger side face outlet. A face airflow control door extends across both the driver side face outlet and the passenger side face outlet. A divider separates a driver side airflow path from a passenger side airflow path. The driver side airflow path extends across the evaporator to the driver side face outlet, and the passenger side airflow path extends across the evaporator to the passenger side face outlet. A passenger side airflow control door is within the passenger side airflow path between the face airflow control door and the evaporator. The passenger side airflow control door is movable to block airflow through the passenger side airflow path to the passenger side face outlet.
VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONING DEVICE
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.
