HVAC inlet with ram air and partial recirculation function

An air handling system of a vehicle comprises a housing defining an inlet section. The inlet section includes a recirculation inlet in fluid communication with a passenger compartment of the vehicle and a fresh air inlet in fluid communication with an ambient environment. An air distribution door is disposed in the inlet section for controlling a distribution of air entering the inlet section through the recirculation inlet and the fresh air inlet. A baffle door is disposed in the inlet section for selectively reducing a flow area through the fresh air inlet to accommodate a ram air pressure induced by motion of the vehicle relative to fresh air of the ambient environment.

Apparatus and method for controlling the distribution of air in an HVAC system

An air distribution plenum for controlling air flow in a vehicle HVAC system includes an air inlet and first and second air outlets. A movable member substantially blocks the first and second air outlets when in a first position, blocks only the first air outlet in a second position, blocks only the second air outlet in a third position, and permits air to flow through both the first and second air outlets when in a fourth position.

A safety ventilation device for vehicles or other applications has a housing with one or more openings covered by a hinged flap with the flaps interconnected by a connecting element. A spring is attached to the connecting element or otherwise to the flaps such that in a first position the spring keeps the flaps open and air can pass through the openings. In a second position, upon the application of force to the flaps, such as airflow caused by a moving vehicle, the spring compresses, and the flaps close. The housing of the device includes a protrusion at the top and a channel at the bottom to facilitate an interference fit between a window and a window or door frame.

Air vent

A flap system for a heating, ventilation and air-conditioning unit for circulating-air/fresh-air control in a motor vehicle, the HVAC unit having flow ducts for circulating air and for fresh air and a mixing chamber in which circulating air and fresh air are mixed with one another for ventilating a vehicle interior, the flap system having two rotary flaps, each adjustable about an axis of rotation, and an actuator, by which one of the two rotary flaps is driven directly for adjustment, and wherein the other rotary flap is a circulating air rotary flap associated with the flow channel for circulating air for influencing a circulating air flow.

Air conditioner for vehicle

The present invention relates to an air conditioner for a vehicle having a rear seat outlet, which can relieve temperature inversion that discharge temperature of the console vent becomes higher than discharge temperature of a rear seat floor vent in a bi-level mode, and prevent reduction of air volume of the console vent in the cooling mode. The air conditioner for a vehicle, which has a rear seat outlet, includes an air-conditioning case having an air passageway formed therein and a plurality of air outlets, and a cooling heat exchanger and a heating heat exchanger disposed in the air passageway of the air-conditioning case to exchange heat with air passing through the air passageway. Wherein the air outlets include a console vent and a rear seat floor vent, and an entrance of the rear seat floor vent is formed above an entrance of the console vent.
