Abstract:
A vehicle communication system includes at least one vehicle controller configured to control functions of a vehicle and configured to output data related to the vehicle. A communication unit is configured to transmit the data output from the vehicle controller to an external data collecting device. A memory is configured to store the data. A network managing unit is configured to control the communication unit to output the data to the data collecting device when the data is different from previous data transmitted to the data collecting device.
Abstract:
A method of controlling an automotive air conditioning system includes: a mode checking step of checking whether the air conditioning system is in an auto-mode; an operation recognizing step of recognizing whether the air conditioning system is manually operated in the auto-mode; and a learning step of setting and storing at least one manual operation value, when the air conditioning system is manually operated, and then operating the air conditioning system in accordance with the at least one stored manual operation value in a next auto-mode.
Abstract:
A cup holder for a vehicle may include a holder body for storing a cup and having a thermoelectric element to thereby cool and heat the cup stored therein, a supporting part having a front end protruded to an inner side surface of the holder body and a rear end supported by an elastic part to thereby support a side surface of the cup when the cup is stored and having a light source capable of expressing a plurality of colors to thereby irradiate light toward the cup, a temperature sensor provided on the holder body to thereby measure a temperature thereof, and a controlling part changing a color of the light source of the supporting part in response to the measured temperature.
Abstract:
An air-conditioning apparatus may include an air conditioner that is provided at a rear of a rear seat in the vehicle and includes a thermoelectric element and a blower to produce conditioned air, an inlet duct that connects the air-conditioner to a passenger compartment to introduce air in the passenger compartment into the air-conditioner, an outlet duct that connects the air-conditioner to a roof above the rear seat in the passenger compartment to blow the conditioned air from the roof toward a passenger in the rear seat, and a radiator that is provided at a trunk room to radiate heat from the thermoelectric element.
Abstract:
An air conditioning system of a high voltage battery for a vehicle and an air conditioning method using the same include a first heat exchanger arranged in a housing of the high-voltage battery and a first blower for blowing air around the first heat exchanger. A second heat exchanger is arranged on an external upper part of the housing of the high-voltage battery, and a second blower blows air around the second heat exchanger. A first surface of a Peltier cooler is in contact with the second heat exchanger. Cooling water circulates through a cooling line, and a first part of which is in contact with a second surface of the Peltier cooler extending downward, and a second part of the cooling line is connected to the first heat exchanger to exchange heat.
