An air conditioner is disposed in a vehicle in which a driving device of a traveling power source is housed in an outer space separated from a cabin by a partition wall. The air conditioner includes: a temperature control unit that controls a temperature of air blown into the cabin; and plural air distribution ducts connected to the temperature control unit to guide temperature-controlled air having a temperature controlled by the temperature control unit to predetermined positions in the cabin. The temperature control unit is disposed in the outer space together with the driving device. Intermediate parts of the air distribution ducts located at least between the outer space and the cabin are bundled together and extended through a single insertion hole formed in the partition wall.

Air conditioner for vehicle

An air conditioner for a vehicle has a first shaft that drives a first air-mix door in conjunction with being rotated, a second shaft that drives a second air-mix door in conjunction with being rotated, and a rack that interlocks the first shaft and the second shaft with each other. The rack has an elongated shape, thereby a mounting space can be smaller with respect to a rink mechanism. Therefore, an air conditioning unit can be downsized.
