A ventilating tube may include a body through which air is flowable in an air flow direction and a sound attenuating mechanism for attenuating airborne noise. The sound attenuating mechanism may be a wavelength resonator, which may include at least one resonance chamber. On one side, the at least one resonance chamber may have an opening which opens the at least one resonance chamber into the body transversely to the air flow direction.

Ventilating tube and an air conditioning system for a vehicle

A blower having a motor mount, in particular for a blower of an air-conditioning system of a motor vehicle, the blower having a blower housing, in which an electric motor is held with the aid of the motor mount, an impeller being furthermore drivably disposed in the blower housing on a shaft of the electric motor, the impeller having a side oriented toward the electric motor, and the motor mount having a first surface oriented toward the impeller, a gap being formed between the impeller and the first surface, the first surface having a plurality of first projecting elements, which protect on the outer circumference of the surface in the direction of the impeller.

A sound insulation arrangement for an air-conditioning system may include a gas-tight housing and a sound insulation element. The housing may include an air inlet and an air outlet. The sound insulation element may be composed of an insulation material and may be fixed in the housing. The sound insulation element may have an inlet side disposed about the air inlet and an outlet side disposed about the air outlet such that the sound insulation element defines an air conduit in the housing.

An exemplary flap arrangement may include a housing and a flap arranged in the housing for regulating an air flow in the housing. The flap may have a flap main body with a front side arranged on an air inflow side in an operating state. The flap arrangement may also include an elastic sealing lip with a sealing surface provided on the flap main body. The flap arrangement may further include a rib arranged in the region of the sealing lip and outside the sealing surface. The rib may project substantially vertically from the front side of the flap main body, and may serve for air flow rate reduction during opening of the flap. The sealing lip and the rib may be formed in one piece.

Flap arrangement

An air guide housing, in particular for a ventilation, heating or air conditioning system of a vehicle, with at least one first air inlet opening, wherein the at least one first air inlet opening has a cross sectional area which is arranged substantially vertical to a first axis, and with at least one second air inlet opening, wherein the at least one second air inlet opening has a cross sectional area which is arranged substantially vertical to a second axis, and having at least one air outlet opening, wherein the at least one air outlet opening has a cross sectional area which is arranged essentially vertical to a third axis, and with a fan impeller for suctioning air into the air guide housing. The second axis and the third axis are arranged substantially parallel to one another.

A housing of a centrifugal blower for use in an air conditioner is provided that includes a rotatably supported fan wheel, an inlet opening disposed in the axial direction of the fan wheel and an outlet opening disposed in the radial direction of the fan wheel. A widening diffuser is disposed downstream from the outlet opening in the flow direction, and the fan wheel is disposed in an inner volume of the housing. A crossover area formed from multiple openings is provided on at least one housing wall which delimits the inner volume. At least one chamber is disposed on the outside of the housing, the chamber completely covering the crossover area and being fluidically connected to the inner volume of the housing via the crossover area.
