Disclosed herein is an air conditioner for a vehicle, which can prevent reduction of an air volume by reducing a back-and-forth width of the vehicle and sufficiently securing the degree of opening of a warm air bypass door, and control an efficient linkage between the warm air bypass door and a defrost door. The air conditioner includes: an air-conditioning case having an air passageway formed therein; a heat exchanger for cooling and a heat exchanger for heating which are disposed in the air passageway of the air-conditioning case to exchange heat with air passing the air passageway; a warm air bypass passageway for directly discharging the air passing the heat exchanger for heating to a front seat floor vent; and a warm air bypass door for adjusting the degree of opening of the warm air bypass passageway, wherein the warm air bypass door includes a rotary shaft and a plate, and the plate has a bent portion to have at least two sides.

A vehicle-use air conditioning device that supplies air to a side vent aperture portion regardless of a discharge mode, and allows a discharge of air from a defrost aperture portion when a discharge mode that maximizes a ratio of air blown to a passage communicating with a foot aperture portion is employed, is such that a change in an amount of air supplied from the defrost aperture portion is restricted using a simple structure that does not necessitate fine adjustment, even when an air passage on a downstream side of the side vent aperture portion is closed. A passage (a third passage 23) communicating with a side vent aperture portion 17b to a downstream side of heat exchangers 6, 7 is configured of a passage that, when a rotary type first door 25 that adjusts ratios of air blown to a first passage 21 communicating with a foot aperture portion 18 and a second passage 22 communicating with a defrost aperture portion 16 and a center vent aperture portion 17a is in a discharge mode position that maximizes the ratio of air blown to the first passage 21, connects a region to an upstream side of the first door 25 and the side vent aperture portion 17b, regardless of a discharge mode.

An air-handling system for a motor vehicle includes a conditioning section having an evaporator core and a heater core. The conditioning section is separated into a primary zone and a secondary zone at a position disposed upstream of the heater core. The heater core extends partially into each of the primary zone and the secondary zone. A primary door assembly is disposed within the conditioning section at a position upstream of the heater core and a secondary door assembly is disposed within the secondary zone of the conditioning section at a position downstream of the primary door and upstream of the heater core.

A vehicle air conditioner for supplementing and regulating the air volume discharged to front seats and rear seats through a door component that controls a passage, and enabling the length of a package in the direction of a heater core to be reduced. The vehicle air conditioner has an air passage comprising: a front seat air passage through which cold air or hot air is discharged toward the front seats of a vehicle; and a rear seat air passage through which cold air or hot air is discharged toward the rear seats of the vehicle, wherein the front seat air passage comprises a front seat cooling passage and a front seat heating passage, and the rear seat path comprises a rear seat cooling passage and a rear seat heating passage, and includes: a first mixing part in which the cold air of the front seat cooling passage and the hot air of the front seat heating passage are mixed; and a second mixing part in which the cold air of the rear seat cooling path and the hot air of the rear seat heating path are mixed.

Various disclosed embodiments include illustrative heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) devices, HVAC systems, vehicles, and methods. An illustrative HVAC system includes a case configured to at least partially recirculate air within the case, a blower disposed in the case and configured to cause air to flow, a first heat exchanger disposed in the case and configured to heat the air, and a second heat exchanger disposed in the case and configured to exchange heat with the air.

An air-conditioning unit includes an air-conditioning case including an opening through which air flows, a cooler disposed in the air-conditioning case to cool air flowing to the opening, a heater disposed in the air-conditioning case to heat air flowing to the opening, and an adjusting member disposed to cover the opening and adjusting airflow passing through the opening. The adjusting member is produced separately from the air-conditioning case and includes a first region and a second region. The second region includes a high resistance member giving higher resistance to the airflow than the first region. The first region includes a low resistance member giving lower resistance to the airflow than the second region. The low resistance member is a partition dividing the first region into plural air passing parts through which air flows. The high resistance member is a plate member including a part to interfere the airflow.

An air conditioning system of a motor vehicle, having a housing with at least two independent air ducts formed therein, which are arranged separately from each other by at least one partition wall in the housing. A cooling heat exchanger is arranged in the housing such that it is flowed through by air, which can flow into the at least two independent air ducts. A heating heat exchanger is arranged in the housing such that it protrudes into the at least two independent air ducts and is flowed through by air of the at least two independent air ducts. The heating heat exchanger being an electrically operable heat exchanger, which is formed with several independently heated heat exchanger areas, so that the air flowing through an heat exchanger area is independently heatable and each independent air duct is provided at least one heat exchanger area.

An HVAC module may include an air path through which air is flowable, an evaporator, and a heater. The evaporator and the heater may subdivide the air path into a main path and a side path. The main path may pass through the evaporator and the heater. The side path may branch off from the main path upstream of the evaporator and may open into the main path downstream of the heater. The side path may be fluidically connected to the main path between the evaporator and the heater. A first valve flap may be arranged in the air path and may be adjustable to a closed position and to an open position. A second valve flap may be arranged in the air path and may be adjustable to a first position, to a second position, and to a third position.

A motor vehicle air-conditioning system includes a housing for guiding an air flow, wherein air outlets for the air supply into the motor vehicle interior are formed. An evaporator through-flowable by the air flow, and a thermal heat exchanger arranged in the housing downstream of the evaporator. A cold air path bypassing the thermal heat exchanger and a warm air path running through the thermal heat exchanger lead downstream into a mixing space connected to the air outlets. At least one separating wall runs through the housing and separates the housing into at least two flow areas along the cold air path, the warm air path, the mixing space and the air outlets. Air outlet areas can be closed and opened by means of operating flaps, and an air bypass can be closed and opened for a direct fluidic connection between at least two temperature zones.
