Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of vehicle air ducts, specifically relating to a vehicle air duct system, and also to an urban tourist sightseeing vehicle using this air duct system. Background Technology
[0002] In existing technologies, to facilitate installation and maintenance, the air conditioning units for urban tourist sightseeing vehicles are generally mounted on the roof. As a result, the height of the air conditioning units and air ducts occupies a significant amount of vertical space inside the vehicle's passenger compartment. Due to existing line clearance limitations, the roof cannot be raised, which in turn affects the standing comfort of the passengers. Furthermore, in existing technologies, the air from the bottom of the air conditioning unit enters the air duct and then passes through the air outlet grille before finally entering the interior. When problems occur inside the air conditioning unit or between the air conditioning unit and the vehicle body, condensate or rainwater located at the top of the vehicle body frequently enters the passenger compartment, making maintenance inconvenient and resulting in a high failure rate.
[0003] The applicant conducted further technical searches and found that even with the improved technologies proposed in the urban sightseeing vehicle air duct schemes, such as CN203047271U, CN207510186U, and CN109968946A, the air conditioning units still adopt the roof-mounted installation scheme, and therefore the aforementioned technical problems still exist.

[0042] It should be noted that the structural dimensions proposed in this embodiment are one specific preferred implementation.

During operation, the air conditioning unit delivers air to the passenger compartment ventilation module via the side. Furthermore, the air outlets 21b and 22b of the passenger compartment ventilation module 2 are horizontal (i.e., airflow is directed along the width of the passenger compartment), ensuring that the ventilation system does not occupy excessive vertical space within the passenger compartment 1a (specifically increasing the vehicle's vertical height by 178mm). Under current space constraints, this improves the passenger's comfort and safety. The standing comfort is improved, and the condensate generated by the vertically installed air conditioning unit 5 is automatically discharged directly to the station from the outside (the internal drain of the vertically installed air conditioning unit 5 can be equipped with a solenoid valve to control drainage). At the same time, rainwater will not enter the vehicle body. Under the current limited conditions, the passenger riding experience is improved, and the vehicle failure rate is reduced by more than 95%, saving maintenance costs. In addition, the air duct scheme proposed in this embodiment allows for the reservation of a large central area in the roof decoration, which can meet the needs of installing a large area of transparent glass or multi-shaped and multi-functional LED colored lights on the roof, thereby diversifying the interior use of the passenger compartment and meeting various needs.
[0045] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
[0046] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment includes only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
