  • Patent number: 11230164
    Abstract: An air-conditioning system for air-conditioning a passenger cell with a front region and a rear region may include a housing including an air inlet, a front outlet, a rear outlet, and a footwell outlet. The system may also include an evaporator for cooling an airflow and a heating device for heating the airflow arranged in the housing. A cold air space, a hot air space, a front mixing space, a layering mixing space, and a rear mixing space may be arranged within the housing. The system may also include a front flap configured to control a first connection opening connecting the hot air space to the front mixing space, a layering flap configured to control a second connection opening connecting the hot air space to the layering mixing space, and a rear flap configured to control a third connection opening connecting the hot air space to the rear mixing space.

  • Patent number: 10661636
    Abstract: A scenting device for scenting a vehicle interior may include at least one aromatic substance container holding a supply of an aromatic substance. The device may also include a feeding duct for feeding air to the at least one aromatic substance container and a discharge duct for discharging air enriched with the aromatic substance. The device may further include at least one scenting path for enriching air with the aromatic substance from the at least one aromatic substance container. The device may include a bypass duct branching off from the feeding duct and bypassing the at least one aromatic substance container. The device may also include a bypass valve and at least one container valve. The device may include a camshaft including a bypass cam configured to actuate the bypass valve and at least one container cam configured to actuate the at least one container valve.

  • Publication number: 20190170452
    Abstract: A heating or air conditioning system with a housing and with a heat exchanger located therein, wherein the housing constitutes an upper housing part and a lower housing part in which the heat exchanger is positioned, and the upper housing part forms, in the region where the heat exchanger is positioned, a housing wall that the heat exchanger is in direct contact with. The housing wall is designed to be elastic, at least in sections, such that the housing wall elastically yields in the contact region of the heat exchanger to compensate for dimensional tolerances of the heat exchanger.

  • Patent number: 9533548
    Abstract: The invention relates to an air-diverting element with a flow-optimized contour for an air-conditioning system, in particular of a motor vehicle, which air-diverting element extends approximately perpendicular to an air flow direction. To divert an air flow through approximately 180° and at the same time nevertheless prevent pressure losses and disadvantageous acoustic effects, one end of the air-diverting element is adjoined by an approximately parabolic elongation which is situated opposite that side of the air-diverting element which faces away from the air flow direction.

  • Patent number: 7727058
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flap (2) of a motor vehicle ventilation system, which is disposed in a housing (1) in the mounted state and controls the air supply to the interior of the vehicle along with a second flap (4). The flap (2) according to the invention comprises a pivot axis about which the same can be pivoted. At least one portion of the flap area (2?) is pivotable and/or flexible to the pivot axis or shaft (2?) and/or another portion of the flap (2) juxtaposing the pivot axis.
