• a front mixing space disposed in the housing downstream of the hot air space and of the cold air space;
• a layering mixing space disposed in the housing downstream of the hot air space and of the cold air space, the layering mixing space adjoining the front mixing space;
• a rear mixing space disposed in the housing downstream of the hot air space and of the cold air space, the rear mixing space adjoining the layering mixing space;
• a front air side window outlet fluidically connected to the front mixing space and arranged between the front outlet and the footwell outlet;
• the hot air space separated from the front mixing space and from the layering mixing space via a front separating wall;
• the hot air space separated from the rear mixing space via a rear separating wall;
• the front mixing space connected to the front outlet;
• the layering mixing space connected to the footwell outlet;
• the rear mixing space connected to the rear outlet;
• a front flap arranged downstream of the at least one heating device configured to control a first connection opening connecting the hot air space to the front mixing space, the first connection opening disposed in the front separating wall;
• a layering flap arranged downstream of the at least one heating device configured to control a second connection opening connecting the hot air space to the layering mixing space, the second connection opening disposed in the front separating wall;
• a rear flap arranged downstream of the at least one heating device configured to control a third connection opening connecting the hot air space to the rear mixing space, the third connection opening disposed in the rear separating wall;
• a front cold flap arranged in the housing fluidically downstream of the evaporator, the front cold flap configured to control a fourth connection opening connecting the cold air space to the front mixing space;
• and
• wherein the front separating wall is connected to and projects from the rear separating wall.

An air-conditioning system for air-conditioning a passenger cell with a front region and a rear region, comprising:

• a first part air-conditioning system configured for air-conditioning a driver's side in the front region and in the rear region of the passenger cell;
• a second part air-conditioning system configured for air-conditioning a passenger side in the front region and in the rear region of the passenger cell;
• a housing, an evaporator for cooling an airflow, and at least one heating device for heating the airflow, common to the first part air-conditioning system and the second part air-conditioning system;
• the housing including an air inlet, a front outlet, a rear outlet, and a footwell outlet;
• the evaporator arranged in the housing on the air inlet such that the entire airflow flows through the evaporator;
• the at least one heating device arranged in the housing fluidically downstream of the evaporator;
• the first part air-conditioning system and the second part air-conditioning system separated from one another within the housing via an air-conditioning separating wall;
• the first part air-conditioning system and the second part air-conditioning system each including:
• a cold air space disposed within the housing between the evaporator and the at least one heating device;
• a hot air space disposed in the housing downstream of the at least one heating device, the hot air space adjoining the at least one heating device;
• a front mixing space disposed in the housing downstream of the hot air space and of the cold air space;
• a layering mixing space disposed in the housing downstream of the hot air space and of the cold air space, the layering mixing space adjoining the front mixing space;
• a rear mixing space disposed in the housing downstream of the hot air space and of the cold air space, the rear mixing space adjoining the layering mixing space;
• the hot air space separated from the front mixing space and from the layering mixing space via a front separating wall;
• the hot air space separated from the rear mixing space via a rear separating wall;
• the front mixing space connected to the front outlet;
• the layering mixing space connected to the footwell outlet;
• the rear mixing space connected to the rear outlet;
• a front flap arranged downstream of the at least one heating device configured to control a first connection opening connecting the hot air space to the front mixing space, the first connection opening disposed in the front separating wall;
• a layering flap arranged downstream of the at least one heating device configured to control a second connection opening connecting the hot air space to the layering mixing space, the second connection opening disposed in the front separating wall;
• a rear flap arranged downstream of the at least one heating device configured to control a third connection opening connecting the hot air space to the rear mixing space, the third connection opening disposed in the rear separating wall;
• wherein the layering flap simultaneously controls a transition in which the layering mixing space openly merges into the front mixing space;
• and
• wherein the layering flap is arranged and configured to alternately control the second connection opening and the transition such that an adjustment of the layering flap opening the second connection opening closes the transition and an adjustment of the layering flap opening the transition closes the second connection opening.
