  • Patent number: 6896047
    Abstract: A heating and/or air conditioning system for an interior of a vehicle has a central heating and/or cooling device and a decentralized air-conveying device which includes a plurality of air-conveying units arranged locally in the vehicle interior. In order to permit good regulation of the heating and/or air conditioning system and efficient air conditioning, respective air-conveying units of the decentralized air-conveying device are arranged in a plurality of subspaces of the vehicle interior for circulating air in the respective subspaces.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6872135
    Abstract: A heating and/or air-conditioning system for vehicles, preferably passenger vehicles, has a central air-conditioning and/or air-conveying device for conditioning and/or conveying air. In order to achieve optimum air conditioning of the vehicle interior and sufficient freedom of the windows from misting with the most effective energy use possible, the air within the vehicle interior is fed so that, for example, outside air and circulating air are fed into the vehicle interior through dedicated air inlet openings and removed from the vehicle interior through dedicated air outlet openings. The air is guided on closed flow paths in order to achieve separation of circulating air and outside air.

  • Patent number: 6823685
    Abstract: A vehicle air-conditioning device having at least one control element which supplies a prescribed value to the air-conditioning control unit, a state of flow being provided by an air speed and a degree of turbulence of the air, which can be influenced by the strength of the fan, distribution of air to the discharge nozzles, the discharge direction to the discharge nozzles and further actuators which have an effect on the state of flow, and a thermal state is provided by the temperature distribution and effect of radiation in the vehicle interior. Provision is made for the at least one control panel to be used to prescribed a state of flow desirable for the occupant and a thermal state.

  • Patent number: 5685160
    Abstract: A method for operating a refrigerating unit for the air conditioning of vehicles and a refrigerating unit for carrying out the method, are provided. In order to make available refrigerating capacity, on the high pressure side of a vapor compression circuit, a pressure is produced which, with respect to the critical pressure of a refrigerant circulating in the circuit, is supercritical and, at the same time, on the low pressure side of the circuit, a subcritical pressure is achieved. In this arrangement, the circuit contains a compressor, a gas cooler, a throttle device and an evaporator which are series-connected and form an integral, closed circuit. The refrigerant, which is cooled on the low pressure side, is supplied, via the evaporator, with thermal energy, and refrigerating energy is removed.
