[0029] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0030] The following is for reference. Figures 1-2 An air conditioning system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.
[0031] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the air conditioning system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: an air conditioning unit 1, which has an in-vehicle first air outlet 11 and an out-of-vehicle air outlet 12; a first air duct 2, which connects the in-vehicle first air outlet 11 and the passenger compartment of the vehicle; a second air duct 3, which connects to the out-of-vehicle air outlet 12 and is used to guide air to the outside of the vehicle; and a damper structure 4, which is movably disposed on the air conditioning unit 1 and selectively opens or closes the in-vehicle first air outlet 11 and also selectively opens or closes the out-of-vehicle air outlet 12.
[0032] The air conditioning unit 1 may include a blower 5, a speed control module 6, an evaporator 7, and a PTC (porcelain heating element) 8. The blower 5 provides airflow to the vehicle, ensuring a comfortable interior environment. The speed control module 6 is located downstream of the blower 5 along the airflow direction, and the airflow speed can be adjusted by changing the opening of the speed control module 6. In some embodiments of this application, the evaporator 7 may be located upstream of the PTC 8 along the airflow direction. In some embodiments of this application, the evaporator 7 may be located downstream of the PTC 8 along the airflow direction, and both the evaporator 7 and the PTC 8 are located downstream of the speed control module 6.
[0033] When the occupants turn on the air conditioning in cold air mode, the evaporator 7 operates, while the PTC8 heater operates. As air flows through the evaporator 7, liquid refrigerant evaporates within the evaporator, absorbing heat from the air and thus lowering the air temperature to produce cool air, achieving a cooling effect. When the occupants turn on the air conditioning in hot air mode, the evaporator 7 operates, but the PTC8 heater operates. Current flows through the PTC8 heater, causing it to heat up. The heated PTC8 then exchanges heat with the air, transferring heat to the air, which is then blown into the vehicle, achieving a heating effect.
[0034] The first air vent 11 inside the vehicle directs air towards the passenger compartment, while the air vent 12 outside the vehicle directs air towards the outside of the vehicle, thereby achieving a cooling or heating effect on the passenger compartment or the outside of the vehicle. The first air duct 2 connects the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The first air duct 2 can guide cold or hot air, so that the cold or hot air generated by the air conditioning unit 1 can be transferred from the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle to the passenger compartment through the first air duct 2, thereby achieving a cooling or heating effect on the passenger compartment.
[0035] The second air duct 3 connects to the external air outlet 12. The second air duct 3 can guide air to the outside of the vehicle. For example, the second air duct 3 can guide cold or hot air to the camping tent, or it can directly guide cold or hot air to any place outside the vehicle, so that the occupants can dissipate heat or warm up when camping or fishing in the tent.
[0036] The damper structure 4 is movably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1. For example, the damper structure 4 is slidably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1, or the damper structure 4 is rotatably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1, so that the damper structure 4 can open or close the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle, and the damper structure 4 can also open or close the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle. As some embodiments of this application, the damper structure 4 can open the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle and close the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle. At this time, warm air or cold air enters the passenger compartment of the vehicle in sequence through the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle and the first air duct 2 to cool or heat the passenger compartment.
[0037] As some embodiments of this application, the damper structure 4 can close the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and open the air vent 12 outside the vehicle. At this time, warm or cold air flows sequentially through the air vent 12 outside the vehicle and the second air duct 3 to the target location outside the vehicle, such as into a camping tent, to cool or heat the target location. As some embodiments of this application, the damper structure 4 can simultaneously open the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle, so that warm or cold air can enter the passenger compartment of the vehicle through the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the first air duct 2, and flow to the target location outside the vehicle through the air vent 12 outside the vehicle and the second air duct 3. When multiple occupants are active inside or outside the vehicle, the temperature comfort of multiple occupant activity positions can be improved simultaneously.
[0038] Specifically, when the vehicle is in normal operation, or when the occupants are moving or resting inside the vehicle after parking, the occupants can control the control panel in front of the vehicle to open the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and close the air vent 12 outside the vehicle. Warm or cold air enters the passenger compartment of the vehicle through the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the first air duct 2 in sequence to cool or heat the passenger compartment and improve the comfort of the occupants inside the passenger compartment.
[0039] When passengers want to fully experience nature and camp outside the vehicle, they can control the control panel at the front of the vehicle to close the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and open the air vent 12 outside the vehicle. This improves the interaction between the camping tent and the vehicle. Warm or cold air enters the camping tent through the air vent 12 and the second air duct 3 to cool or heat the tent. Compared with external air conditioning equipment, cooling or heating the tent through the vehicle's air conditioning unit 1 can effectively reduce camping costs and improve the comfort of passengers inside the tent.
[0040] When a family travels together, some passengers may be inside the passenger compartment while others are camping outside. Passengers can control the control panel at the front of the vehicle to simultaneously open the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle via the vent structure 4. Warm or cold air can enter the passenger compartment through the first air vent 11 and the first air duct 2 inside the vehicle, and flow to the camping tent through the air vent 12 outside the vehicle and the second air duct 3, thereby improving the comfort of multiple family members at the same time.
[0041] Therefore, by setting a second air duct 3 on the vehicle's air conditioning system 100 to connect to the external air outlet 12, the warm or cold air from the air conditioning unit 1 can be guided to the camping tent outside the vehicle, improving the interaction between the camping tent and the vehicle. Furthermore, the camping tent does not need an external air conditioner to regulate and maintain the temperature inside the tent, which helps to reduce camping costs and improve the convenience and comfort of camping for passengers.
[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the air conditioning unit 1 has an air supply duct 13, which is connected to the first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle. The damper structure 4 is located inside the air supply duct 13.
[0043] The air supply duct 13 is connected to the first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle and to the air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle. This arrangement makes the structure of the air conditioning unit 1 reasonable, which is conducive to the cold or warm air generated by the air conditioning unit 1 being transmitted through the air supply duct 13 to the first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle, and then transmitted to the passenger compartment or outside the vehicle through the corresponding first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle or air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle.
[0044] The air supply duct 13 can also provide an assembly position for the damper structure 4. By placing the damper structure 4 in the air supply duct 13, for example, placing the damper structure 4 between the first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle in the air supply duct 13, the damper structure 4 can selectively open or close the first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle, and the damper structure 4 can also selectively open or close the air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle. This is beneficial for passengers to control the damper structure 4 as needed, thereby controlling the opening, closing or opening degree of the first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle, realizing the functional diversity of the air conditioning system 100, and thus improving the user experience of the passengers.
[0045] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the damper structure 4 includes a damper 41, which is rotatably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1 to open or close at least one of the first air supply vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air supply vent 12 outside the vehicle.
[0046] The damper 41 is rotatably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1. For example, the damper 41 can be mounted on the air conditioning unit 1 via a rotating shaft, but is not limited to this. In some embodiments of this application, the damper 41 can be connected to a drive motor (not shown in the figure). The drive end of the drive motor is connected to the damper 41 to drive the damper 41 to rotate, allowing the occupant to control the drive motor and thus control the rotation of the damper 41 via the main control panel. In some embodiments of this application, the damper 41 can open the first air outlet and close the external air outlet 12. In some embodiments of this application, the damper 41 can close the first air outlet and open the external air outlet 12. In some embodiments of this application, the damper 41 can simultaneously open both the first air outlet and the external air outlet 12.
[0047] As some embodiments of this application, the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle are arranged adjacent to each other, and the first air duct 2 and the second air duct 3 are arranged perpendicularly. The damper 41 is rotatably arranged between the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle. When the occupant needs to adjust the temperature of the passenger compartment, the occupant controls the drive motor through the main control panel, thereby controlling the damper 41 to rotate to the position that completely blocks the air vent 12 outside the vehicle. At this time, the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle is open, and warm air or cold air enters the passenger compartment of the vehicle through the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the first air duct 2 in sequence.
[0048] When the occupants need to adjust the temperature of the camping tent, they control the drive motor through the main control panel, thereby controlling the air door 41 to rotate to completely block the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle. At this time, the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle is open, and warm or cold air enters the camping tent through the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle and the second air duct 3 in sequence to cool or heat the camping tent.
[0049] When the occupants need to adjust the temperature of the passenger compartment and the camping tent at the same time, the occupants control the drive motor through the main control panel, thereby controlling the damper 41 to rotate to the middle position between the position of completely blocking the external air outlet 12 and the position of completely blocking the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle. At this time, both the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle and the external air outlet 12 are partially open, so as to cool or heat the passenger compartment and the camping tent at the same time.
[0050] By setting a damper 41 to simultaneously control the opening or closing of the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle, the control cost of the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle can be reduced, thereby reducing the production cost of the air conditioning system 100, which is conducive to the low-cost design and lightweight design of the vehicle.
[0051] In some embodiments of this utility model, the damper structure 4 includes two dampers 41, both of which are rotatably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1. One damper 41 selectively opens or closes the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle, and the other damper 41 selectively opens or closes the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle.
[0052] Two dampers 41 are rotatably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1. For example, both dampers 41 can be mounted on the air conditioning unit 1 via a rotating shaft, but not limited to this embodiment. As some embodiments of this application, both dampers 41 can be connected to a drive motor (not shown in the figure). The drive ends of the two drive motors are connected to the corresponding dampers 41 to drive the corresponding dampers 41 to rotate, so that the occupants can control the corresponding drive motors through the main control panel to control the rotation of the corresponding dampers 41.
[0053] In some embodiments of this application, one damper 41 can open the first air outlet, and the other damper 41 can close the external air outlet 12. In some embodiments of this application, one damper 41 can close the first air outlet, and the other damper 41 can open the external air outlet 12. In some embodiments of this application, both dampers 41 can simultaneously open the corresponding first air outlet and the external air outlet 12. In some embodiments of this application, both dampers 41 can simultaneously close the corresponding first air outlet and the external air outlet 12.
[0054] Two air vents 41 are rotatably mounted at the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle, respectively. When the occupants need to adjust the temperature of the passenger compartment, they control the drive motor through the main control panel to control one air vent 41 to rotate to the position that completely blocks the air vent 12 outside the vehicle, and the other air vent 41 to rotate to the position that opens the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle. Warm air or cold air enters the passenger compartment of the vehicle in sequence through the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the first air duct 2.
[0055] When the occupants need to adjust the temperature of the camping tent, they control the drive motor through the main control panel, thereby controlling one vent 41 to rotate to completely block the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle, and the other vent 41 to rotate to open the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle. Warm or cold air enters the camping tent through the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle and the second air duct 3 in sequence to cool or heat the camping tent.
[0056] When the occupants need to adjust the temperature of the passenger compartment and the camping tent at the same time, the occupants control the drive motor through the main control panel, thereby controlling one air door 41 to rotate to open the external air outlet 12 and the other air door 41 to rotate to open the internal air outlet 11. At this time, both the internal air outlet 11 and the external air outlet 12 are open, so as to cool or heat the passenger compartment and the camping tent at the same time.
[0057] When the occupants do not need to adjust the temperature, they can control the drive motor through the main control panel to rotate one damper 41 to completely block the external air outlet 12 and the other damper 41 to completely block the internal air outlet 11. At this time, both the internal air outlet 11 and the external air outlet 12 are closed. The occupants can also directly turn off the air conditioning unit 1 to stop the operation of the air conditioning system 100.
[0058] By setting two dampers 41 to control the opening or closing of the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle respectively, the working reliability of the dampers 41 can be improved, and the risk of damage to the dampers 41 caused by one damper 41 controlling the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle at the same time can be reduced, thereby improving the working reliability of the air conditioning system 100.
[0059] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the air supply duct 13 has an adjacent first wall portion 131 and a second wall portion 132, one of the first wall portion 131 and the second wall portion 132 forms an in-vehicle first air supply vent 11, and the other of the first wall portion 131 and the second wall portion 132 forms an out-of-vehicle air supply vent 12.
[0060] In this embodiment, the first wall portion 131 and the second wall portion 132 are arranged adjacent to each other. In some embodiments of this application, the first wall portion 131 forms an interior air vent 11, and the second wall portion 132 forms an exterior air vent 12. This arrangement allows the interior air vent 11 and the exterior air vent 12 to be positioned close to each other, facilitating the arrangement of the damper structure 4 that controls the opening and closing of both the interior air vent 11 and the exterior air vent 12. This also allows a single damper 41 to simultaneously control the opening and closing of both the interior air vent 11 and the exterior air vent 12, reducing the control costs of the interior air vent 11 and the exterior air vent 12, as well as the difficulty of arranging the air conditioning system 100.
[0061] In some embodiments of the present invention, the air supply channel 13 has a third wall portion and a fourth wall portion that are opposite to and spaced apart, one of the third wall portion and the fourth wall portion forming an in-vehicle first air supply vent 11, and the other of the third wall portion and the fourth wall portion forming an out-of-vehicle air supply vent 12.
[0062] In this embodiment, the third and fourth walls are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart. In some embodiments of this application, the third wall forms an interior first air vent 11, and the fourth wall forms an exterior air vent 12. This arrangement allows the interior first air vent 11 and the exterior air vent 12 to be spaced apart, which facilitates the two dampers 41 controlling the opening and closing of the interior first air vent 11 and the exterior air vent 12 respectively. This reduces the risk of mutual interference between the interior first air vent 11 and the exterior air vent 12, thereby improving the cooling or heating effect of the air conditioning system 100.
[0063] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first air outlet 11 inside the vehicle and the air outlet 12 outside the vehicle are formed on the same wall of the air supply channel 13.
[0064] The first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle can be formed on the same wall of the air supply duct 13. For example, both the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle can be formed on the first wall 131, or both can be formed on the second wall 132. By forming the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle on the same wall, the molding difficulty of the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle can be reduced. This makes it easier to mold the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle simultaneously when processing a wall, thereby reducing the production steps of the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle and the air vent 12 outside the vehicle, thereby reducing the production cost of the air conditioning system 100 and improving the production efficiency of the air conditioning system 100.
[0065] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle is configured as a face-blowing vent.
[0066] By designing the first air vent 11 inside the vehicle as a face vent, it is possible to ensure that the airflow blows directly onto the passenger's face. By adjusting the blade angle in the face vent, the angle and flow rate of cold and hot air entering the passenger compartment, as well as the opening and closing of the vent, can be controlled. This allows for precise control of the speed and flow direction of cold or warm air, which is beneficial for providing passengers with suitable cold or warm air and improving passenger comfort.
[0067] Furthermore, the air vents can also serve to defrost and defog. When fog or frost appears on the windshield inside the vehicle, adjusting the direction and speed of the air vents can direct the airflow directly onto the windshield, thereby quickly removing the fog or frost and improving driving safety.
[0068] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the air conditioning unit 1 has a second air vent 14 inside the vehicle, which can be selectively opened or closed. The second air vent 14 inside the vehicle is configured as a foot vent.
[0069] The air conditioning unit 1 may have a second air vent 14 inside the vehicle, which can be selectively opened or closed. As some embodiments of this application, the air conditioning system 100 may also include a second damper 9, which can be selectively controlled according to the needs of the occupants. For example, the second damper 9 may be constructed as a fan-shaped damper. The second damper 9 is rotatably mounted on the air conditioning unit 1. The second damper 9 has a first position and a second position, and can be switched to the first position or the second position. The air supply duct 13 has a first inlet 133. When the second damper 9 is in the first position, the second damper 9 blocks the first inlet 133, thereby closing the air supply duct 13. At this time, the second damper 9 opens the second air vent 14, and the face blowing mode is closed while the foot blowing mode is open. When the second air damper 9 is in the second position, the second air damper 9 no longer blocks the first inlet 133, so that the second air damper 9 opens the air supply channel 13 and closes the second air outlet 14. At this time, the face blowing mode is turned on and the foot blowing mode is turned off. This setting allows the occupants to freely choose the face blowing mode or the foot blowing mode, improving the flexibility of the use of the air conditioning system 100.
[0070] The second air vent 14 inside the vehicle can be configured as a foot vent. By setting a foot vent, the foot vent can utilize the principle of rising hot air to help distribute the temperature evenly inside the vehicle, thereby quickly raising the overall temperature inside the vehicle and making the temperature feel more comfortable for the passengers. In addition, the foot vent avoids blowing air directly onto the head, which can reduce the drowsiness of passengers, thereby improving their attention while driving and contributing to the safety of the passengers.
[0071] The vehicle according to this utility model embodiment includes the air conditioning system 100 described above. By providing a second air duct 3 on the vehicle's air conditioning system 100 to connect to the external air outlet 12, the warm or cold air from the air conditioning unit 1 can be guided to the camping tent outside the vehicle, improving the interaction between the camping tent and the vehicle. Furthermore, the camping tent does not require an external air conditioner to regulate and maintain the temperature inside the tent, which helps reduce camping costs and improves the convenience and comfort of camping for passengers.
