Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/023641
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An air conditioner for an automobile has a foot door (11) and a mixing area (20). The
foot door (11) has a partition wall (11b) and is movable at least between an advanced
position (11A) to which the partition wall (11b) is moved forward until it blocks
in an air passage the flow of air from a merging area J to the downstream side and
a retreated position (11B) to which the partition wall (11b) is retreated from
the advanced position (11A). The mixing area (20) is provided in the air passage with
the foot door (11) positioned at the advanced position (11A) and blocks the flow
of air to the downstream side by the partition wall (11b) to promote the mixing of
the flow of air from a cold air passage (8) and the flow of air from a hot air passage (9).
The air flows into discharge passage systems (12, 13, 16) via the mixing area (20).
