AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240100910 titled 'AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a rear air-conditioning controller that can limit the volume of air to the rear side of a vehicle cabin under specific conditions.

  • The controller activates when a grille shutter upper or lower is stuck in an open state and the defroster function is on.
  • This innovation ensures that the rear side of the vehicle cabin receives the appropriate amount of air conditioning, even in the presence of a malfunction.
  • By regulating the airflow to the rear of the cabin, this system helps maintain a comfortable temperature for passengers.
  • The controller enhances the overall efficiency and performance of the vehicle's air conditioning system.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in various vehicles, such as cars, vans, and buses, to improve the distribution of air conditioning throughout the cabin.

Problems Solved

This technology addresses the issue of uneven air distribution in vehicle cabins, particularly when certain components are malfunctioning.

Benefits

- Ensures consistent and comfortable airflow to all parts of the vehicle cabin - Enhances passenger comfort and overall driving experience - Improves the efficiency and performance of the air conditioning system

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing Passenger Comfort: The Potential of Rear Air-Conditioning Controllers in Vehicles"

Possible Prior Art

There may be existing systems that regulate air conditioning distribution in vehicle cabins, but the specific conditions described in this patent application provide a unique approach to addressing this issue.
