  • Publication number: 20170297405
    Abstract: A dust sensor includes: a main body in which a dust inlet is formed and including an optical sensor and a lens for collecting light scattered by dust which enters into the main body through the dust inlet; a button unit protruding outwardly from the main body and having one end that is inserted into a coupling hole formed in the main body, wherein the button unit is selectively moved, by a pushing operation of a user, upward and downward with respect to an interior of the main body in which the lens is installed; and a cleaner installed on the one end of the button unit that is inserted into the main body, wherein the cleaner is repeatedly brought into contact with the lens by the upward and downward movement of the button unit.

  • Publication number: 20170166031
    Abstract: An air conditioning system for a vehicle is provided. The air conditioning system includes a cooling module having a cooling duct and an evaporator core, and a heating module having a heating duct and an inner condenser. Additionally, an outer condenser is disposed extraneous to the heating duct, and a blower forms air flow in the cooling duct or the heating duct. The inner condenser, the outer condenser and the evaporator core are connected via a single refrigerant passage.

  • Publication number: 20170167775
    Abstract: An air conditioning system for a vehicle is provided. The system includes a cooling duct and a heating duct provided as spaces partitioned by a partition wall and an evaporator core and an inner condenser disposed respectively in the cooling and heating ducts. An outer condenser is connected to the inner condenser and the evaporator core via one refrigerant passage. An air volume regulation door is disposed upstream of the evaporator core and the inner condenser in an air flow direction, and a common blower is disposed at one side of the cooling and heating ducts to simultaneously form an air flow in the cooling and heating ducts.

  • Publication number: 20170113517
    Abstract: An automatic dust removal device for a vehicle is provided. The device constantly senses dust in the interior of the vehicle and automatically removes the detected dust. The device includes a dust sensor that senses dust concentration in the interior of the vehicle and a controller that operates an air-conditioning device. The controller determines whether dust in the interior of the vehicle requires removal based on a signal from the dust sensor. An air-conditioning device for removing dust from the air is operated to activate a dust removal mode based on a signal from the controller. Thus, an intake door is closed to block inflow of external air into the interior of the vehicle and the air in the interior of the vehicle passes through an air filter and is circulated by a blower.
