Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve amenity by arranging horizontal diffusers at the front center portion and vertical diffusers at front side portions in series for left and right front seats. CONSTITUTION:Horizontal diffusers 14a, 17a are provided on a front center instrument panel 5 and at both side front portions in series for left and right front seats 10, 11. According to this constitution, conditioned air is blown out simultaneously through the diffusers 14a-14c and 17a-17c into the car. Since the horizontal and vertical diffusers are combined together, the air is blown out so as to envelop the bodies of seated personnel, thus a uniform wind is received over the whole body. Thereby, a uniform cooling/heating effect can be available and the amenity can be improved.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an air conditioning structure for an automobile, and particularly to an arrangement structure of air outlets thereof.

First, if we look at the conventional automobile air conditioning structure based on FIG. It passes through an air mix door, a heater core, etc. (not shown), and is supplied into the vehicle interior as hot or cold air.

The arrangement structure of the air outlets provided in the passenger compartment of such a conventional automobile air conditioning structure is as shown in FIG. There are two center ventilators 8 and 9 in the car, and floor ventilators 12 and 13 are installed near the feet of the passengers seated in the left and right front seats. It obtains things like wind.

However, in this conventional automobile air conditioning structure,
Due to the position of the air outlet and the direction of its blowout, Suita air often hits directly on the areas where the air outlet is coming from, such as near the fists and ankles, and furthermore, the number and diameter of the air outlets are limited to some extent. Because of this, the amount of air blown from one outlet is large, and if you ride for a long time while the air is being blown, the speed of the air may also be a factor that reduces your ability to concentrate. Furthermore, if the blown air hits a specific part of the body, discomfort may occur, and especially if the air is cold, there is a risk that physiological IF may occur.

The present invention has been made by focusing on this problem, and in the air conditioner of an automobile, corresponding to the left and right front seats, the front right rfJS position is lateral to the left and right front seats.
The aim is to solve the above problem by providing air outlets in the vertical direction in the front side parts, and by blowing air around the occupants without changing the total volume of air blown into the interior of the car. That is.

The tank bottom of the present invention will be described below in accordance with the third and fourth embodiments. In the figure, reference numeral 14 denotes an air outlet of the air conditioner, which corresponds to the right front seat 10 and is provided laterally in the instrument panel 5 in front of the front seat. Specifically, from instrument panel 5 to dash side panel 1
It consists of a vertical air outlet 140 which is provided integrally over the instrument panel 5 and the floor console 16, and a vertical air outlet 140 which is provided in a critical location from the instrument panel 5 to the floor console 16.

Similar to 14, 17 is also an air outlet (69, left front seat). Specifically, a vertical air outlet 171) provided integrally from the instrument panel 5 to the dash side panel 15 and another vertical air outlet 17 provided from the instrument panel 5 to the floor console 16. It consists of Senzo with G and G all over it.

In this example concerning the above *g, the fourth! As shown in H, as in the conventional example, the outside air introduced from the outside air inlet 2 provided with the cover IK is transferred by the fan 3 driven by the motor, flows through the heater duct 4, and becomes an air (not shown). It passes through the mix door, heater core, etc., and is supplied into the car as hot or cold air.

And inside the car, horizontal air outlet 17 & (14 &),
Vertical blowout 017b, 17c (14b, 14
c) Air is blown simultaneously, and the air hits the entire body of the person sitting in the seat, creating a uniform cooling effect that wraps around the body without cooling or heating any part of the body. Obtainable.

As explained above, the present invention relates to an air conditioning system for an automobile, in which air is supplied to the left and right front seats in series, horizontally in the front area thereof, and vertically in both front side areas. By installing an air outlet, if you want to have a rapid heating and cooling effect right after getting in the car, the high fan speed allows a large amount of air to flow around your body, quickly regulating the temperature of your entire body. You can pray for an appropriate temperature condition overall and rapidly.

After setting the temperature to the appropriate temperature throughout the vehicle, lower the fan speed to a moderate wind speed of 11, and you will be able to obtain low-speed wind over a wide area from the inside direction to the rear. A pleasant breeze can be obtained throughout the body, and discomfort caused by partial cooling or heating of the body, as well as physiological disorders, can be prevented.

In addition, in the present invention, the total area of the nine air outlets is much larger than that of the conventional one, so even when one headwind is obtained, the blowing speed is sufficient at a low speed, and the airflow speed is significantly lower. This reduces the number of vortices generated at the outlet when the wind velocity is high, and the noise caused by this can be reduced.

In addition, the air outlet corresponds to the left and right front seats,
Since they are each provided independently, if the driver is the only occupant, it is easy to blow air independently depending on the occupant, such as blowing air only from the driver's seat IIIO.
