System having a control unit

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system having a control unit (1-5) for actuating at least one air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1) in a motor vehicle. The air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1) has components (3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6) for influencing the air stream to be routed through the air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1). The air stream emerging from the air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1) can have its orientation influenced and deflected by means of the components (3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6), and the emerging volume of air can be varied. The air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1) has electronic units (1-6; 1-7) in the form of a memory unit (1-6) and a position storage unit (1-7), the memory unit (1-6) being connected to at least one means (2-2;... 2-10) that can be used to set the components (3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6) of the air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1) singly and / or individually or collectively. The air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1) can be assigned at least one user-specific parameter and / or at least one configuration, consisting of position data for the components (3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6), which are stored in the position storage unit (1-7). The control unit (1-5) is connected to an existent bus system (1-1) that the control unit (1-5) uses to receive at least one control command for the at least one air nozzle (1-8; 2-1; 3-1) and to forward it to the memory unit (1-6), the memory unit (1-6) converting the at least one control command into one or more executable actuation commands for the at least one means (2-2;... 2-10) and executing said control command using the at least one means (2-2;... 2-10).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a system comprising a control unit for actuating at least one air nozzle, which is used, for example, in a motor vehicle, in a passenger space, a cargo space or a vehicle cabin of a land vehicle, an aircraft or a watercraft. Such an air nozzle has a plurality of components, such as longitudinal and transverse lamellae, for influencing the air flowing out of the air nozzle, and partially has at least one closing flap, which is arranged in the air duct of the air nozzle, so that Interrupt or block or throttle air delivery flow if necessary. Background technique [0002] Furthermore, air nozzles are known which have separate sheet metal sections arranged at an angle relative to each other, wherein the sheet metal sections are present in the sheet section or are supported rotatably about an axis in the sheet section, and are arranged parallel to each other and mostly equidistant from each other. sheet. The lamellas of the individ...

Problems solved by technology

The central actuation of the air nozzles or components of the air nozzles and the storage of the setting parameters and the setting positions of the components of the air nozzles or the air nozzles themselves would otherwise lead to an overload of the bus system including the subordinate components and increased data transmission on the bus, which is unwanted
