An instrument panel including a potentially large display panel which can be recessed away from mis-operations includes mounting surface and air outlet assembly. The display panel is mounted on the mounting surface. The air outlet assembly includes air intake and outlet. The air intake can connect to an air conditioning system. The air outlet is disposed on the mounting surface, and contains the display terminal. A size of the display assembly is freely adjustable, and the structure of the instrument panel reduces a risk of mis-operating the display terminal while driving. Heat generated by the display terminal can be taken away by the air outlet for increasing a lifetime of the display terminal. A vehicle with the instrument panel is also provided.

A defroster structure includes: a window panel; an instrument panel; an air outlet member formed with an opening through which defrost air is blown out; and a duct member. The air outlet member includes an adjacent part forming a front edge of the opening and adjacent to the window panel, and a fixed part continuous to the adjacent part. The fixed part is fixed to the duct member at a position in front of a front end part of the window panel, which is exposed to the vehicle compartment, in cross-sectional view in a front-rear direction.

A ventilation system is adapted to be used in a vehicle. The vehicle includes a vehicle body that defines an interior space. The ventilation system includes a vent pipe and a fan. The vent pipe is adapted to be disposed on the vehicle body, and has an outside communicating end via which the vent pipe is adapted to communicate with the outside of the vehicle body, and an inside communicating end via which the vent pipe is adapted to communicate with the interior space. The fan is disposed in the vent pipe, and is configured to be activated to produce airflow from the outside communicating end to the inside communicating end.

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.

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.

An automatic driving vehicle that is automatically movable, the automatic driving vehicle includes a LIDAR configured to acquire external world information on an automatic movement, and a bracket holding the LIDAR and fixed to the automatic driving vehicle. The bracket is fixed to a rearview mirror which is as another device different from the LIDAR.

A ventilation system for a vehicle interior has an air guide for guiding air into the vehicle interior, an ionization device for ionizing the air in the air guide, an air outlet for transferring the air from the air guide into the vehicle interior, and a deflecting device in the air outlet, designed to produce an electric and/or magnetic field, for deflecting the ionized air.

An on-vehicle equipment operation device includes an air-conditioning duct that has an open end through which air-conditioned air blows, a display that is disposed outside the air conditioner and configured to display an image, an image forming optical element, and at least one equipment operation switch that is disposed at a lower edge of the open end. The image forming optical element is configured to form, as a floating image near the open end of the air-conditioning duct, a real image of the image that is displayed on the display. The floating image includes at least one equipment operation icon. The at least one equipment operation switch corresponds to the at least one equipment operation icon.

A front defroster nozzle includes a connecting portion connected to an air conditioner at a lower side of a central portion in a vehicle width direction of a front windshield, a nozzle lower portion provided at an upper side of the connecting portion, and a nozzle upper portion provided at an upper side of the nozzle lower portion, so as to slope towards a vehicle rear side, the nozzle upper portion having a blower aperture portion that extends in the vehicle width direction and opens at an upper end portion of the nozzle upper portion and at an instrument panel, and, when viewed in a cross-section taken along a vehicle front-rear direction, a blow-out angle formed between the nozzle upper portion and the front windshield is set such that the blow-out angle at both end portions in the vehicle width direction is larger than the blow-out angle at the central portion.
