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.

A fluid delivery module includes a housing defining a fluid flow path between an inlet and an outlet. The housing includes a top surface portion and a bottom surface portion that are movable to vary a flow direction of a fluid flow along the fluid flow path. The fluid delivery module includes an outlet treatment movable to vary a flow rate of the fluid flow exiting the outlet and a control unit configured to send commands to move at least one of the top surface portion, the bottom surface portion, or the outlet treatment according to a fluid delivery profile that dictates a flow pattern of the fluid flow.

An air outlet apparatus for an interior of a motor vehicle includes a first ventilation gap and a second ventilation gap, which are spaced apart from each other, a decorative element, which is coupled to a fitting covering for the motor vehicle and arranged between the first and the second ventilation gap, and a control unit, which is coupled to the decorative element and has a first regulating element and a second regulating element. An intensity of an air flow through at least one of the ventilation gaps and, by way of the second regulating element, an alignment of the air flow through at least one of the ventilation gaps can be adjusted independently of each other.

Disclosed is an air conditioning apparatus for a vehicle, the air conditioning apparatus being applicable to an autonomous vehicle, etc. having console removed therefrom by ensuring a lower space of a driver's seat in a front part of the vehicle and being capable of preventing condensate water from flowing backward. The air conditioning apparatus for a vehicle comprises: an air conditioning case having an air flow path formed therein and a plurality of air discharge ports; and a cooling heat exchanger and a heating heat exchanger provided in the air flow path of the air conditioning case and exchanging heat with the air passing through the air flow path, wherein the air discharge ports include a front seat air discharge port and a back seat air discharge port, and the back seat air discharge port is arranged under the heating heat exchanger in the direction of gravity.

A vehicle instrument panel structure including: a head-up display device that is provided within an instrument panel positioned at a front section of a vehicle cabin and that displays information by projecting light onto a windshield; a defroster that is provided within the instrument panel so as to be disposed alongside the head-up display device in a vehicle width direction, and that conveys air toward the windshield; a guide section that is provided at an upper face of the instrument panel so as to be disposed between the head-up display device and the defroster, and that has a cross-section profile as sectioned along the vehicle width direction profiled so as to cause airflow from the defroster to cling to a surface of the guide section such that the airflow is blown toward an area of the windshield in which information is displayed by the head-up display device.

A vehicle instrument panel structure is provided including a blower outlet and a guide member. The blower outlet is provided between a meter section on an instrument panel provided at a front section of a vehicle cabin and an interior member of a vehicle door, and is capable of blowing an airflow substantially toward a vehicle rear side. The guide member is provided at the vehicle rear side of the blower outlet so as to block the blower outlet from view of an occupant sitting in a vehicle seat provided inside the vehicle cabin, and extends at an angle toward the vehicle rear side on progression from a location corresponding to the blower outlet toward a vehicle width direction outer side.

A vehicle air conditioner installed in a vehicle includes a condenser that causes heat exchange between a coolant and outside air, and a spray nozzle that sprays water to a portion near the condenser that are provided in each of a front side accommodation space positioned in a lower front portion of the vehicle and a rear side accommodation space positioned in lower rear portion of the vehicle.

A windshield sunshade with solar powered fans including a foldable, pleated opaque panel including a plurality of panel section with at least two panel sections having a solar powered fan motor-blade unit centrally disposed in a recessed portion thereof. A shaft of each fan-motor blade unit is detachable from at least one of a yoke and a motor thereof to permit a casing along with vanes attached thereto to be detached from the respective panel section to fold the panel. Each fan motor-blade unit includes at least one solar module fixedly disposed on the outer side of the respective panel section power the motor. An on-off switch proximal each fan motor-blade unit in a position proximal the vehicle dashboard is provided. A protective front grill is disposed solely over the entire one of each recessed portion to protect against contact with the vanes of the fan motor-blade unit.

An air blowing device has a first blowing portion, a duct, and an airflow causing member. The first blowing portion has a guide surface and is provided with a first blowing outlet that blows air from a blower unit into a vehicle compartment. The airflow causing member defines at least one of a first passage and a second passage located on one side and an other side of the airflow causing member in a front-rear direction of a vehicle respectively in the duct. The airflow causing member sets a first condition in which a high-velocity airflow flows in the first passage and a low-velocity airflow flows in the second passage by decreasing a sectional area of the first passage to be smaller than a sectional area of the second passage. The high-velocity airflow flows along the guide surface and is blown into the vehicle compartment.

A defrost duct assembly for a vehicle includes a housing having a wall that defines an air passage. The air passage extends between an inlet and an outlet of the housing. The wall includes an opening into the air passage. A noise attenuation panel is attached to the housing, and covers the opening in the housing. The noise attenuation panel is an acoustic material that is operable to attenuate noise from within the passage of the housing, while maintaining sufficient air flow to adequately defrost a front windshield of the vehicle. The housing may include multiple outlets and multiple openings covered by one or more noise attenuation panels. The noise attenuation panel is preformed to mate with the housing, and minimize disturbance to the flow of air within the passage.
