A ventilation assembly for installing in the dashboard of a motor vehicle has having a housing which has an air-inlet opening for fitting on an air-feed duct and also two air-outlet openings which are arranged one above the other in the installation position and lie in two planes at an angle to each other. Two air ducts are formed in the housing, each connecting one of the two air-outlet openings to the air-inlet opening. The quantities of air flowing into the two air ducts is metered. The end side of the lower air duct which leads to the lower air-outlet opening encloses the air-inlet opening, and the upper air duct, which leads to the upper air-outlet opening, encloses a wall opening in the lower air duct. The air-quantity is metered by a pivotable air-discharge flap which is assigned to the wall opening and is arranged in the lower duct in such a manner that its pivot axis lies on that side of the wall opening which is remote from the air-inlet opening.

Ventilation assembly for a passenger vehicle

An operating display device for an automotive air-conditioning system having an automatic operating mode which can be partially overridden by manual control of selected functions. A visual display provides a symbolic indication of the status of functions selected by said automatic operating mode as well as the status selected by manual control of such functions.

Control display device for an air-conditioning system of a motor vehicle

An air-conditioning system for a motor vehicle is controlled in such a manner that the temperature control in the air-conditioning mode occurs with two channels, i.e. corresponding individually to the preset desired values for the left-hand and right-hand side halves of the passenger compartment of the vehicle. This occurs in the automatic air-conditioning mode with a single channel, while the air distribution occurs in both operating modes with a single channel.
