An actuator assembly for actuating actuatable members. The actuator assembly includes an upper cam mounted to an upper side of a center plate. The upper cam is rotatable by a motor. A lower cam is mounted to a lower side of the center plate. The lower cam is rotatable by the motor. The upper cam and the lower cam are configured to rotate at different speeds and are configured to actuate linkages for moving the actuatable members.

Actuator assembly

An airflow baffle for controlling airflow through a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. The airflow baffle includes a main body, an upstream side of the main body, and a downstream side of the main body. A plurality of holes are defined by the main body, and extend through the main body between the upstream side and the downstream side. The plurality of holes include holes of various different diameters spaced apart at various different intervals to provide uniform airflow through the baffle.

HVAC airflow baffle

The present teachings include a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) unit including an evaporator, a heater core, and an airflow control door. The heater core is arranged downstream of the evaporator with respect to a direction of airflow through the HVAC unit. The airflow control door is downstream of both the evaporator and the heater core. The airflow control door is movable to increase and decrease a cross-sectional area of an airflow path downstream of the temperature control door, such as to facilitate mixing of airflow that has passed through the heater core with airflow that has passed around the heater core.
