An air conditioning system particularly mounted in a passenger compartment of an automotive vehicle according to the present invention can be fixed in the maximum heating operation mode to produce a maximum effect of the defrosting function by only pushing a push-button switch engaged with a mode selector for maximizing the air blowing rate of a ventilating fan and also engaged with a three-way vacuum switch for opening a vacuum power servomechanism to the air to fix an air mix door in the maximum heating position.

Air conditioning system for an automotive vehicle compartment

A vehicle mounted air conditioner controlling system is disclosed and of which system comprises a vacuum mode controlling switch (41) being controlled by depression of push-button switches (56) for each mode and mounted on a controller, a shift actuator (43) and vacuum selectors (42, 42'). The system is controlled by uni-directional vacuum signal and blower outlet doors and the air intake door are controlled by respective actuator provided individually therefor.

System for controlling a vehicle mounted air conditioner

An emergency controller for an air conditioning system of an automotive vehicle which incorporates an electronic control circuit in the automatic temperature adjusting means to perform a proportional control over an air mixing door by the use of a vacuum power servo is operated to connect a vacuum source to the vacuum power servo or to cause the air to flow into the vacuum power servo so that the maximum cooling or heating operation can be achieved. Consequently, when a trouble occurs in the electronic control circuit during running in a high-temperature region or low-temperature region, the air conditioning system may immediately be fixed in the maximum cooling or heating operation without intervention of electric circuits.

Emergency controller for an air conditioning system of an automotive

An air conditioner of a vehicle having a selectively controlled conditioned air blowing outlet system using a shift actuator (20) equipped with a number of negative pressure supplying ports (a, b, c, d), in which selection of the operation mode of the conditioner is represented by the supply of a negative pressure signal to any one of the supplying ports, which causes displacement of a piston (31) of the shift actuator (20). The displacement is conveyed to selected one or more of doors provided at the outlets via a link mechanism to control the outlets according to a predetermined program.

Selectively controlled air conditioner outlet system of a vehicle

The present invention relates to a two position valve having a cam and a cam follower mechanism for holding the valve element in either of its two operative positions, depending on the operation of a push button switch arrangement cooperating with the valve so that the valve shifts between positions in response to pushing the switch. The cam takes the form of an arrowhead shaped groove having first and second apex portions in which the cam follower, a spring loaded pin, traces. The groove is formed with a step at one apex to prevent the pin from reversing its trace and to ensure its oneway tracing about the groove.

Push-button type valve

An intake control system comprising a mode selector which receives a first control pressure and a second control pressure, and, according to the temperature inside and outside the vehicle, adapted to supply selectively a plurality of different combinations of the first and second control pressures to a pressure activated actuator to switch an air intake system between at least an outside air position and a recirculating air position. An air intake changeover switch receives the pressure output by an air control switch, a first reference pressure and a second reference pressure, and supplies a certain combination thereof as the first and second control pressures, when operated, to the mode selector, thereby causing the actuator to switch the air intake system to the recirculating air position, irrespective of the switching state of the mode selector.
