AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing dual-layer flow air conditioning box structure design requires separate flow channels and fans, resulting in a large air conditioning box volume, which cannot meet the lightweight requirements of automotive air conditioning.

Method used

A partition is used to divide the gas flow chamber inside the blower housing into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. Air is introduced into the blower on one side through a flow guide mechanism. The internal circulating air is guided into the lower chamber by the flow guide housing, and fresh air enters the upper chamber, achieving a double-layer air intake effect and reducing the space occupied by the air intake structure.
