Air conditioner for vehicle
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.
Interior trim storage bin/tray with integrated exhauster path
A vehicle has a storage bin positioned between the seat and the rear wall of an interior compartment. The storage bin includes a receiving portion and louvered portion. The receiving portion is defined by a peripheral wall and a bottom. The louvered portion is coupled with the receiving portion. The louvered portion includes at least one window. An air flow path is defined by the storage bin. The air flow path enables air to pass into and through the at least one window under the receiving portion bottom and out through an exhaust vent in the rear wall.
Rear seat climate control
A vehicle includes a front-row occupant support and a rear-row occupant support. The front-row occupant support includes a climate-control system arranged in the front-row occupant support. The climate control system is configured to provide a conditioned airflow moving from the front-row occupant support toward a rear-row occupant region between the front-row occupant support and the rear-row occupant support.
AIR CONDITIONING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE
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.
Module for accommodating and cooling electronic circuitry in a vehicle
A module for accommodating electronic circuitry which advantageously is able to take advantage of air in a climate system for cooling of the electronic circuitry. In one aspect, there is provided a module for accommodating electronic circuitry in a vehicle, the module includes: at least one attachment surface for attachment of electronic circuitry thereon, an air guiding structure for receiving an air flow for cooling of the attachment surface, the air guiding structure having a wall member including the attachment surface such that the wall member provides a thermal path between the attachment surface and the air in the air guiding structure, wherein the air guiding structure includes an inlet configured to receive air for cooling of the attachment surface wherein the air flow is an air flow used for climate control in the vehicle.
Structural duct with seat attachment
A ventilation assembly for a vehicle includes a duct disposed between a seating assembly and a vehicle floor having a first end with a first opening disposed at a first area of the vehicle and a second end with a second opening disposed at a second area of the vehicle. An air mover is disposed at one or more of the first and second ends of the duct, wherein the air mover is operable to move air along the duct.
VEHICLE-BODY STRUCTURE WITH AIR CONDITIONER
A vehicle-body structure may include a floor panel, a center frame disposed to be higher than and away from the floor panel, and an air-conditioning device. The air-conditioning device may include an air distribution portion that is positioned higher than a front portion of the center frame and distributes generated air-conditioned air to each portion of an occupant space, and under-feet ducts that guide air-conditioned air to a lower side. The under-feet ducts each may extend downward from the upper side of the center frame through a vehicle-width-direction outer side of the center frame.
Ionized air delivery system
An ionized air delivery system, such as a vehicle ionized air delivery system, includes an outlet body that is situated within a duct of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. The outlet body delivers ions to air flow in the duct of the HVAC system. The outlet body has an outer surface that is generally spherical at a region of the outer surface that confronts the air flow in the duct. Further, the outlet body has an outlet passage with a primary axis that is directed away from an exit of the duct of the HVAC system. Air flow in the duct passes across an exit opening of the outlet body and draws ions out of the outlet passage to mix with the air flow in the duct of the HVAC system.
Moving Console for Vehicle
An embodiment moving console for a vehicle includes a first console unit including an accommodation space configured to be opened forward or rearward and an air-conditioning duct disposed at an outer side of the accommodation space and configured to discharge air to an interior of the vehicle through the air-conditioning duct, and a second console unit installed to be slidable at a front or a back of the first console unit such that, depending on forward/rearward sliding, the second console unit is accommodated in the accommodation space of the first console unit or is deployed out of the first console unit.
Autonomous driving device module mounting structure and autonomous driving electric vehicle
An autonomous driving device module mounting structure includes: a floor panel that constitutes a part of a vehicle body and extends in a front to rear direction of a vehicle and a width direction of the vehicle; a rear seat that is disposed on a vehicle upper side of the floor panel such that a gap is formed with respect to the floor panel; and an autonomous driving device module that is equipped with a plurality of devices and is disposed on the vehicle upper side of the floor panel and a vehicle lower side of the rear seat.
