Description

Wind direction controller of vehicle wind

The present invention relates to a wind direction control apparatus of a vehicle driving wind, and more particularly, by allowing the driver or passenger to appropriately adjust the wind direction of the driving wind flowing into the room when the side window located at the side of the vehicle is opened. The present invention relates to a wind direction control apparatus of a vehicle running wind that actively utilizes draft air for air conditioning in a vehicle interior.

The indoor air of the vehicle is maintained at an appropriate temperature to give comfort to the occupant by the air conditioner. The air conditioner of the vehicle raises the temperature of the air conditioning air by using the heat of the engine coolant or the heat supplied by the electric heater, or, conversely, adjusts the temperature of the air conditioning air by lowering the temperature by operating the air conditioner. In recent years, automated HAVC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) systems have been widely applied, enabling precise temperature control that comprehensively reflects the effects of set temperature or sunlight.

In many cases, such a vehicle air conditioner can satisfactorily control the overall air-conditioning of the vehicle interior, but satisfy the desire of the occupant to desire intensive wind supply to certain parts of the body, such as the neck or shoulders. On the other hand, there is a limit that on the other hand, the active use of the cool running wind generated when the vehicle is running for indoor air conditioning is hardly considered. In particular, as a driver of the high oil price era, he wants to use the cool driving wind to reduce the operation of the air conditioner, which has a very bad effect on the driving fuel economy.However, the driving wind is not a controlled wind, so it is far from comfortable, It stays to the extent that it is utilized.

For this reason, some auxiliary devices have been introduced to supply wind to a specific area or to give direction to the driving wind, which may be exemplified by Patent Documents 1 and 2 below.

Patent Document 1 discloses a device for blowing air to the driver's nape of Korean Utility Model Publication No. 2010-0000756, wherein a fan operated by a power source supplied from a car cigar jack is detachably mounted on the headrest and thus the nape of the driver. By intensively blowing in the air to cool the heat felt by the back of the seat while driving.

In addition, Patent Document 2 is a "vehicle wind induction mechanism" of the Utility Model No. 2013-0006066, to prevent the generation of moisture in the windshield by inducing the wind flowing into the front seat through the wind guide unit when opening the side window The present invention relates to a vehicle wind guidance device.

As can be seen from the above Patent Documents 1 and 2, various attempts have been made to solve the limitation of the vehicle air conditioner.

However, an auxiliary device (for example, Patent Document 1) using a power source of an automobile has a disadvantage in that it not only adversely affects the fuel efficiency of the vehicle to some extent, but also is expensive and somewhat inconvenient to install, and is used for vehicles such as Patent Document 2 The wind induction mechanism is advantageous in that it uses the driving wind to prevent moisture generation of the windshield, but the effect of improving the air-conditioning environment of the vehicle interior is inadequate and the direction of induction of the wind is fixed so that the driving wind is supplied only in a specific direction. There is a limit.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to allow a driver or a passenger to freely adjust a cool driving wind in a desired direction through an inexpensive device that can be easily mounted on a vehicle.
