The present disclosure provides an air conditioning device for a vehicle. The air conditioning device includes an air conditioning unit disposed in at least one of front or rear of the vehicle. The air conditioning device further includes a duct unit blowing air of the air conditioning unit into an interior and extending inside of at least one of a front pillar or a rear pillar. The air conditioning device further includes a vent unit communicating with the duct unit through a connecting duct and selectively opening and closing a discharge path of at least one of a main path, a first path, or a second path so as to discharge the blown air to a side of a roof frame.

The present invention relates to ventilation systems and solutions for caravan vehicles, sports campers of a teardrop caravan type and ventilation units for larger caravans and recreation vehicles. The ventilation system of the present invention is designed to draw air through the caravan or recreation vehicle during driving and to ventilate the whole caravan vehicle both below and above the floor interior.

A vehicle air conditioning system includes: air conditioners provided to respectively correspond to air conditioning zones; and a cooler that cools a target equipment mounted on a vehicle. The cooler includes a cooling circuit through which a heat medium for exchanging heat with the target equipment flows. Of the plurality of air conditioners, the air conditioner that air-conditions a door side zone is a door side air conditioner and the air conditioner that air-conditions a panel side zone is a panel side air conditioner. An amount of heat absorbed from the heat medium during equipment temperature control, in which cooling of the interior and temperature control of the target equipment are respectively performed by the plurality of air conditioners, is smaller in the panel side air conditioner than in the door side air conditioner.

A climate control system for a vehicle includes a front-end or first heat exchanger configured to thermally condition airflow from an environment external to a vehicle cabin, a rear-end or second heat exchanger configured to thermally condition airflow from the vehicle cabin, a recirculation path configured to return airflow from the second heat exchanger to the vehicle cabin, and an extraction path configured to vent airflow from the second heat exchanger to the environment external to the vehicle cabin. Various operational modes of the climate control system direct airflow to either the recirculation path or the extraction path.

A vehicle that includes a cabin air conditioning system, having a driver air distribution circuit provided with a plurality of driver blowing vents arranged to blow air directly into the driver's area. At least 75% of the driver blowing vents are carried by the driver's seat.

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 pop-up roof, for multi-purpose vehicles such as camper vans and similar, includes components for increasing the climatic comfort of the additional interior compartment of the vehicle when the rigid top of the pop-up roof is in a raised operating position. A fixed frame following the shape of the opening of the vehicle roof includes a hollow structure defining an air duct with annular development. At least one air inlet in the duct connects with an air supply channel of the air conditioning system provided in the vehicle and a plurality of air diffusion vents distributed along the air duct, sending air towards the additional internal compartment.

A climate control system includes a plurality of vent registers, an HVAC unit delivering conditioned air to the plurality of vent registers, a side door status monitoring device and a controller configured to control opening and closing of the plurality of vent registers in response to side door status data provided by the side door status monitoring device. A related climate control method is also provided.

A device, system, and method for creating air capsules enclosing passengers in vehicles is disclosed. The device for creating air capsules enclosing passengers in vehicles includes an attachment portion. The attachment portion is removably attached to a gasper within a vehicle and receives airflow from an outlet port of the gasper. The device further includes a diffuser portion integrated with the attachment portion. The diffuser portion is configured to intake the airflow from the attachment portion. Further, the diffuser portion includes a flow control portion configured to generate at least one airflow stream from the airflow. A first airflow stream of the at least one airflow stream creates an air capsule configured to enclose a passenger in the vehicle.

In an example embodiment, a controller controls the HVAC system, dampers, fans, and heater/coolers in seats to heat or cool the interior and the seats to a desired temperature. The controller may control the temperature and/or the flow of air through a plurality of ducts and the heater/coolers in the seats to heat or cool regions of the interior and the seats to a desired temperature.
