Photocatalytic apparatus and HVAC equipment for vehicle comprising same

Abstract

The present invention relates to a photocatalytic apparatus and a heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment for a vehicle comprising the same and, more specifically, to a photocatalytic apparatus and HVAC equipment for a vehicle comprising the same, wherein the photocatalytic apparatus sterilizes and deodorizes an evaporator in addition to purifying air introduced into an HVAC case, and can continuously maintain the sterilization and deodorization functions by efficiently radiating heat generated from the photocatalytic apparatus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a photocatalyst device and a vehicle air conditioner comprising the same, in particular to a photocatalyst device and a vehicle air conditioner comprising the same: to purify the air flowing into the air conditioner casing, and at the same time The evaporator is sterilized and deodorized, and the heat generated from the photocatalyst device is effectively released, so that the sterilizing and deodorizing performance can be continuously maintained. Background technique [0002] The vehicle air conditioner is a device for introducing air outside the vehicle into the vehicle interior, or for heating or cooling the air in the vehicle interior while circulating it, thereby heating or cooling the vehicle interior. And the inside of the air conditioner casing is constructed in such a way that the evaporator is used for cooling and the heater core is used for heating. For the air cooled or heated by means of the evaporator or t...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, for the existing refrigerating device attached to the deodorizer for vehicles, the ultraviolet lamp 29 used as the light source of the photocatalyst contains mercury inside, so there is the following problem: mercury is harmful to the human body, and due to various environmental factors not suitable for vehicles

[0010] And, the photocatalyst filter 27 is arranged on the downstream side of the evaporator 26 and absorbs and deodorizes the malodor produced from the evaporator 26, and then there is a problem that the filter needs to be replaced because of the low air volume when the amount of dust is too much.

[0011] Moreover, in the existing refrigerating device attached to a deodorizer for a vehicle, the ultraviolet lamp 29 and the photocatalyst filter 27 are separate parts, so there is a problem that the assemblability decreases.
