Abstract: A movable body comprising a monitoring device configured to monitor a surrounding environment of the movable body through a window member, a heating device configured to heat a portion of the window member within a monitoring area of the monitoring device, an air conditioning device, and a control device, wherein operation modes of the control device include a first mode in which both the heating device and the air conditioning device are driven, and a second mode in which the driving force of the air conditioning device is smaller than that in the first mode, and the control device evaluates the degree of fog on the portion of the window member and determines one of the operation modes based on the result of evaluation.

Abstract: A closable air vent may be bonded to a laminated or tempered windshield used on UTV or other types of vehicles. The air vent may include a vent body with a flap opening and a bond channel, a flap pivotably secured in the flap opening on a flap pivot, and an actuator coupled with the flap via a roll pin and displaceable between a flap closed position and a flap open position. In the flap closed position, the roll pin is disposed on one side of the flap pivot, and in the flap open position, the roll pin is disposed on an opposite side of the flap pivot.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a header extending laterally between A-pillars, and a soft top, including a movable frame defining a roof of the vehicle and having a header bow that is selectively securable to the header, the frame movable between a forward closed position and a rearward retracted position. A wind deflector is mounted to the frame adjacent to the header bow and movable with the frame between the closed position and the retracted position, with the wind deflector positioned in front of the header bow when not in the closed position.

Abstract: An open roof construction for a vehicle includes a first closing element movably supported by a stationary part and is configured to move to an upward position with at least its front edge. A second closing element movably supported by the stationary part and is positioned rearward of the first closing element. The second closing element moves between a closed position in which it closes said roof opening and an at least partly open position. An air guide on a lower side of the first closing element guides and directs the air caught by said first closing element when in its upward position during driving of the vehicle to create a boundary layer of air which is situated between the outside and the inside of the vehicle at the position of the roof opening when said second closing element is in its at least partly open position.

Abstract: A frame arrangement of a motor vehicle body accommodates at least a windshield and has a cowl frame part that runs in a transverse direction of the motor vehicle on an upper side of the windshield. At least one pivotably mounted wind deflector is mounted at the cowl frame part and is movable by a drive device. The wind deflector has at least first and second flow surfaces. The flow surfaces are arranged so that, via a pivoting movement of the wind deflector, only one flow surface can be set into an active position. The first flow surface is designed to match the cowl frame part and the second flow surface has at least one interfering contour.

Abstract: A structure of a demister hose for vehicles includes a demister outlet formed in a crash pad, a seal pad provided along an outer circumferential edge of the demister outlet and a restraint that guides defrost air toward the demister outlet and that prevents the seal pad from protruding toward the interior of the demister hose.

Abstract: A mounting arrangement for an automobile heating core includes a dash panel defining a boundary between a passenger compartment and an engine compartment. The heater core is positioned in the passenger compartment. An inlet pipe extends between the dash panel and the heating core and delivers fluid to the heating core. An outlet pipe extends between the heating core and the dash panel and delivers fluid away from the heating core. A fluid collection member is positioned in the passenger compartment and arranged to collect fluid leaking from the inlet and outlet pipes.

Abstract: A ventilation nozzle for vehicles has a main duct and a secondary duct branching off therefrom. The ducts lead into two mutually separated blow-out openings and have controllable air adjusting devices. These adjusting devices are arranged in the area of the secondary duct branch off. Each adjusting device is assigned to one of the ducts, respectively, for adjusting the air quantities flowing to the blow-out openings. To provide an individually adjustable indirect air flow by way of the blow-out opening of the secondary duct, the adjusting device assigned to the secondary duct is constructed as an air flap which provides an air siphoning function from the main duct. A separate control element is assigned to each adjusting device for its adjustment.
