Abstract: A vehicle air conditioner, including a first duct having a first ventilation opening that is disposed on first side in a width direction of a seat provided in a vehicle, a second duct having a second ventilation opening that is disposed on second side in the width direction of the seat, the second side being opposite side of the first side, and a third duct having a third ventilation opening that is disposed in front of the seat.

Abstract: An air flow device for a vehicle including an instrument panel dashboard, and a blower, the air flow device comprising a first outlet on a front upper surface portion of the instrument panel dashboard from which an air is sent along the front upper surface to a first inlet on the instrument panel dashboard into which the air blown from the first outlet is drawn; and a second outlet on a back upper surface portion of instrument panel dashboard from which an air is sent along the back upper surface to a second inlet on the instrument panel. The blower outlets are installed so as to open parallel to the blower inlets along an upper surface portion of the instrument panel dashboard.

Abstract: An air flow device for an instrument panel which blows an air from the instrument panel at a front of a vehicle compartment of an automobile to make the air flow to the vehicle compartment, includes a blower, a blower outlet on the instrument panel, from which an air sent from the blower to which the blower outlet is coupled is blown to the vehicle compartment, and a blower inlet on the instrument panel for the blower outlet, into which the air blown from the blower outlet is drawn. The blower outlet is installed so as to open to the blower inlet along a surface of the instrument panel while the blower inlet is installed so as to open to the blower outlet along the surface of the instrument panel.

Abstract: A multicylinder engine cooling apparatus includes: an exhaust side cooing passage individually formed to extend in an exhaust side of the cylinder head in which the plurality of exhaust pipes are disposed; an intake side cooling passage individually formed to extend in an intake side of the cylinder head in which the plurality of intake pipes are disposed; a first downstream cooling water passage through which the cooling water having passed through the exhaust side cooling passage flows; a second downstream cooling water passage that allows the cooling water having passed through the exhaust side cooling passage and then the intake side cooling passage to flow to the first downstream cooling water passage at some midpoint of the first downstream cooling water passage; and a switching valve that switches a flow passage of the cooling water discharged from the exhaust side cooling passage between the intake side cooling passage and the first downstream cooling water passage.

Abstract: There is provided an idling stop device. An ECU sets a lighting color index by recognizing a lighting color of a traffic light in front of a vehicle based upon external environment captured by an onboard camera, sets a distance index based upon a distance between the traffic light and a vehicle just in front of the vehicle, and sets a brake index based upon whether a brake lamp of the vehicle just in front of the vehicle is turned on or not. The ECU adds up these indices to obtain an ISS general index, sets a basic ISS speed based upon the ISS general index, and sets an ISS start speed based upon the basic ISS speed and a mode-based coefficient set based upon an engine mode.

Abstract: An automobile air conditioner includes a blower that is mounted on an automobile, at least one blower outlet that is open to a vehicle compartment of the automobile, a flow path that couples the blower to the at least one blower outlet, and guides an air sent from the blower to the at least one blower outlet, and at least one plasma actuator that is disposed in the flow path, and the plasma actuator is configured to generate a plasma that changes a flowing direction of the air.

Abstract: A vehicle air conditioner includes a first duct, a second duct, and a third duct. The first duct has a first ventilation opening that is disposed on first side in a width direction of a seat provided in a vehicle. The second side is opposite side of the first side. The second duct has a second ventilation opening that is disposed on second side in the width direction of the seat. The third duct has a third ventilation opening that is disposed in front of the seat.

Abstract: An active grille shutter controls opening and closing of a variable duct device which uses movable louvers to open and close an opening provided at the front end of a vehicle to introduce moving air. The active grille shutter includes: thermal load state detection units each configured to detect a thermal load state of the vehicle; and an opening and closing control unit configured to set the variable duct device in a closed state in a normal condition, and to set the variable duct device in an open state when it is determined that the thermal load state of the vehicle is a predetermined high thermal load state.
