A vehicle-mounted temperature controller 100 provided with a compressor 2 having a compression part 2a compressing a refrigerant and a drive motor 2b driving the compression part 2a and using waste heat accompanying driving of the compression part 2a to make the temperature of the refrigerant rise, a blower 61 blowing air to a heater core 145 raised in temperature by receiving heat of the refrigerant and blowing air exchanged in heat with the heater core 145 to the inside of the passenger compartment, and an electronic control unit 51 controlling a current phase of the drive motor 2b to a phase by which a ratio of change of an output of the drive motor 2b to a change of the current phase becomes relatively larger to thereby drive the drive motor 2b by an inefficient drive operation when the blower 61 is in a nondriven state and controlling the current phase to a phase by which a ratio of change of an output of the drive motor 2b to a change of the current phase becomes relatively smaller to thereby drive the drive motor 2b by an inefficiently drive operation when the blower 61 is in a driven state.

A vehicle power unit room structure is provided including a motor that is disposed inside a power unit room and that is configured to transmit drive force to a drive wheel, a compressor that is disposed adjacent to the motor in a vehicle width direction so as to overlap with the motor as viewed along the vehicle width direction, and a power supply section that is configured to supply power supplied from a power source to the motor and the compressor, and that is disposed at a vehicle upper side of the compressor so as to overlap with the compressor as viewed along a vehicle vertical direction.

A cascade heat pump system for an electric vehicle includes a low-pressure-stage compression device, a high-pressure-stage compression device, and a functional heat exchange device. The low-pressure-stage compression device includes a low-pressure-stage compressor, a low-pressure-stage evaporator, a low-pressure expansion valve, and a low-pressure-stage intercooler connected in sequence. The high-pressure-stage compression device includes a high-pressure-stage compressor, a high-pressure-stage four-way valve, an air-side heat exchanger, a water-side heat exchanger, a cabin heat exchanger, and a battery heat exchanger. The compressor outlet of the high-pressure-stage compressor communicates with one of the air-side heat exchanger or the water-side heat exchanger. The air-side heat exchanger communicates with the cabin heat exchanger and the battery heat exchanger separately. The functional heat exchange device includes a motor heat exchange assembly, a heat exchange water tank, a battery heat exchange member, and a cabin heat exchange member.

A device for mounting an air-conditioner compressor on a vehicle body of a motor vehicle, having a retaining unit, which is mounted by at least two bearing elements on the vehicle body and to which the air-conditioner is attached. The retaining unit is arranged on a driven axle of the motor vehicle. In addition to the air-conditioner compressor, a drive assembly of the motor vehicle is attached to the retaining unit. The drive assembly is mounted by at least two further bearing elements on the vehicle body.

A heat pump system for a vehicle utilizes one chiller in which a coolant and a refrigerant are heat-exchanged to adjust a temperature of a battery module, and utilizes a sub-centralized energy module with waste heat of an electrical component in a heating mode of the vehicle to improve heating efficiency.

A heat pump system for a vehicle may include a cooling apparatus including a radiator, a first water pump, a first valve, and a reservoir tank which are connected through a coolant line, and configured to circulate a coolant in the coolant line to cool at least one electrical component provided in the coolant line; a battery cooling apparatus configured to include a battery coolant line connected to the reservoir tank through a second valve, and a second water pump and a battery module which are connected through the battery coolant line to circulate the coolant in the battery module; and a heating apparatus including a heating line connected to the coolant line through a third valve to heat a vehicle interior by use of a coolant and a third water pump provided on the heating line, and a heater.

Methods and system for providing heat to a vehicle are presented. In one example, a refrigerant loop is operated to heat a passenger cabin via heat generated by a compressor and heat generated by a resistive heating element. The heat that is generated by the compressor and the heat that is generated by the resistive heating element is transferred to a refrigerant before it is transferred to the passenger cabin.

A compressor mounting device can be used for mounting a compressor to a vehicle body frame. The compressor mounting device includes a main body to be mounted to the vehicle body frame through first and second frame mounting units integrally formed to one end and the other end and including first and second compressor mounting units formed to be protruded upwardly between the first and second frame mounting units so as to be mounted to first and second lugs formed in the compressor. A main bush unit is mounted to the first and second compressor mounting units and connects the compressor and the first and second compressor mounting units through the first and second lugs to lessen vibration generated from the compressor from being transmitted to the vehicle body frame through the main body.

An embodiment compression module for a vehicle includes a compression unit configured to compress a refrigerant introduced into the compression unit, a control unit having a first surface separably assembled to the compression unit to control the compression unit, and an accumulator unit separably mounted on a second surface of the control unit in a direction opposite to the compression unit, the accumulator unit being configured to supply the refrigerant to the compression unit in a gaseous state.

A multi-compressor refrigerant system for a vehicle including a main compressor, an auxiliary compressor fluidly coupled with the main compressor, and a chiller fluidly coupled to the main compressor and the auxiliary compressor for exchanging heat with an electronic device. At least one of the main compressor and the auxiliary compressor is operated based on a thermal load of the chiller.
