Abstract: A method for operating a fragrancing device, wherein a blower device is provided which sucks air through an air inlet opening into the first air duct and conveys it to an air outlet opening. At second air duct is provided, which branches off from the first air duct at a first duct branch and rejoins the first air duct at a second duct branch. A first fragrance container is provided in the second air duct between the first duct branch and the second duct branch, which can be flowed through by the air flow in the second air duct. A first valve device is provided upstream and/or downstream and controls the flow through the first fragrance container. The blower is controlled in such a manner that a defined, substantially constant, air flow is generated as a sum through the first air duct and the second air duct.

Abstract: A motor vehicle air conditioning unit having a housing, a heat exchanger, at least two manifolds and cooling tubes arranged therebetween forming a tube block. The housing has at least one first sealing rib oriented substantially parallel to an extending direction of the at least two manifolds and at least one second sealing rib oriented substantially parallel to an extending direction of the cooling tubes in the tube block, such that the at least one first sealing rib is oriented perpendicular to the at least one second sealing rib.

Abstract: A housing is provided for a motor vehicle HVAC system, which is formed from interconnectable housing parts and has a groove, delimited by a first and a second groove leg, on a first housing part and a tongue on a second housing part and in which to connect the housing parts the tongue is disposed in the groove. In this regard, the first and second groove legs are formed in such a way that in the inserted state of the tongue in the groove at least one groove leg at its free end is spaced apart from a corresponding tongue-side bearing shoulder of the second housing part.

Abstract: A motor vehicle air conditioning unit having a housing, a heat exchanger, at least two manifolds and cooling tubes arranged therebetween forming a tube block, the heat exchanger is sealed with respect to bypass air inexpensively and with little technical effort. The housing has at least one V-shaped sealing rib oriented substantially parallel to an imaginary plane spanned by the tube block and/or one H-shaped sealing rib oriented substantially parallel to an imaginary plane spanned by the tube block for sealing a front and/or rear side of the tube block, and the at least one H-shaped sealing rib is oriented substantially perpendicular to the at least one V-shaped sealing rib.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite part, especially a cross member between the A columns of a motor vehicle. Said composite part comprises an open metal profile (2) and a channel (3) disposed therein, at least partially constituted of a plastic material and extending along the metal profile (2). An insert part (4, 22) produced from a plastic material is fastened on the wall of the metal profile (2) in such a manner that a retaining contour (10) configured on an opening (11) in the wall of the metal profile (2) and shaped from said profile undercuts the plastic material of the insert part (4, 22) pressed into the contour, thereby providing the channel (3) with a wall and/or mechanically stabilizing it.
