Now, when a detection signal is input from each seat switch 4a, 4b, 4c to the control circuit 5 according to the seating position of the occupant, the control circuit 5 controls the seat switches 4a, 4b, 4c as shown in FIG. The seating flag SiFL = 0 to 7 depending on the ON (indicated by ○ mark) or OFF (indicated by × mark) state, that is, the seating state of the occupant.
Determine one of the following. In the control circuit 5, a fifth
As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 6, the blowing direction of the cooling air blown out from each ventilator outlet 2a to 2d in advance corresponds to the seating flag SiFL=0 to 7 (in the illustrated example, as shown in FIG. 6). M, N, a, b
(divided into four directions) are set and stored.
Therefore, the control circuit 5 determines the seating flag SiFL=0 to 7 according to the ON/OFF states of the seat switches 4a, 4b, and 4c as described above.
The direction of the fins 9 of the registers 3a to 3d of each ventilator outlet 2a to 2d is shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 according to the seating flag SiFL=0 to 7. Automatically changes to each direction of air flow. For this reason, for example, SiFL
= 0, that is, when there is only one driver on board, all air outlets 2a to 2d will blow out cooling air toward the driver's seat, and SiFL = 1, that is, there are passengers in the driver's seat and passenger seat. When the passenger is seated, the cooling air blown out from the ventilator outlets 2a and 2b is blown toward the passenger in the passenger seat, and the cooling air blown out from the ventilators 2c and 2d is blown toward the driver's seat. . In this way, the direction of cooling air blown out from the ventilator outlets 2a to 2d is automatically controlled to be the most suitable direction for the seated state, depending on the seating state indicated by the seating flag SiFL = 0 to 7, thereby providing comfortable seating. Cooling is achieved.
