  • Publication number: 20110107869
    Abstract: The present invention provides an integrated control apparatus for a heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system for a vehicle in which a dual dial structure is applied to a dial type air conditioning control switch. According to the integrated control apparatus for an HVAC system for a vehicle of the present invention, an air flow control knob and a temperature control knob are arranged in a concentric circle such that when the air flow control know is rotated, a blower shaft is thereby rotated to operate a blower switch, and the blower switch turns on or off a blower or controls the rotational speed of the blower, and when the temperature control knob is rotated, a rotating holder is thereby rotated with respect to the blower shaft and the amount of rotation is transmitted to a cable through a pin shaft, a gear shaft, and an internal gear to operate a temperature control cam, thus controlling the interior temperature.

  • Publication number: 20090241720
    Abstract: A bootless type shift lever assembly for a transmission in a vehicle, in which a separate gap blocking device is mounted so as to block a gap between the outer surface of a hard cover and an end of the open upper surface of a console, thereby preventing foreign materials from being introduced into the console toward a shift lever and a shift mechanism, more uniformly maintaining a motion path of the hard cover when the shift lever is manipulated to thereby allow the shift lever to be smoothly manipulated, preventing noise from being caused by the gap, and improving beauty of the interior of the vehicle.
