Abstract
An air conditioning device for a vehicle having a regenerative section improves efficiency of regeneration. The air conditioning device comprises a compressor () connected to an output shaft () of an engine () via an electromagnetic clutch (), a motor-generator () for electrically recovering kinetic energy of the vehicle () during deceleration, a battery () for storing energy regenerated by the motor-generator (), and a motor-driven compressor (). When the vehicle () is in a deceleration state, the compressor () is disconnected from the engine () by disengaging the electromagnetic clutch (), and air conditioning is performed by the motor-driven compressor ().
