  • Patent number: 6892808
    Abstract: A device to control an installation for heating, ventilating and/or ai-conditioning a vehicle passenger compartment responds to a set-point set by a passenger and chosen air-heating parameter values. A control module drives actuators to modify the operation of the installation. The device includes a module calculating a comfort temperature for a passenger in the passenger compartment using the stored values of the chosen parameters and by taking into account the set-point. The control module alters the operation of the installation as a function of the comfort temperature which corresponds to the air-heating configuration desired in the passenger compartment.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6625995
    Abstract: Device for detecting a risk of misting of a motor-vehicle window, and installation including such a device. Measurements are taken and associated with chosen models giving access to an average temperature (on the surface) of the window, for instance the windscreen, and to a dew temperature of the air in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. A comparison between the two temperatures represents a risk of misting of the window.
