Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning unit for a vehicle

A vehicle heating, ventilation, and air conditioning unit, comprising:

• a seating assembly including a seat air duct assembly disposed within an interior of the seating assembly, the seat air duct assembly including a central air duct, wherein the seat air duct assembly is in fluid communication with:
• a foot air vent defined in a seat-forward portion of a base support of the seating assembly;
• a rear air vent defined in a seat-rearward portion of the base support;
• arm air vents defined on opposing bolsters of the seating assembly;
• and
• a headrest air vent defined on a headrest of the seating assembly, the headrest air vent downstream of the arm air vents;
• and
• a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning assembly including:
• a housing having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the seating assembly is disposed on the first surface of the housing;
• and
• a seat-directed duct disposed within the housing, wherein the seat-directed duct is in fluid communication with the central air duct and an intake defined by the housing, wherein the central air duct is rotatably coupled to the seat-directed duct, and wherein the central air duct extends from the seat-directed duct to the headrest.

A vehicle heating, ventilation, and air conditioning unit, comprising:

• a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning assembly including:
• a housing defining an intake, wherein the housing has a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface;
• a floor duct assembly disposed within the interior of the housing, wherein the floor duct assembly includes:
• a duct connector having a receiving side defining an opening to receive air from the intake and an outlet side opposing the receiving side;
• outer seat-directed ducts coupled to opposing ends of the outlet side of the duct connector, the outer seat-directed ducts being in fluid communication with the intake and defining outer vent openings;
• and
• inner seat-directed ducts coupled to the outlet side of the duct connector, the inner seat-directed ducts being disposed between the outer seat-directed ducts, and wherein the inner seat-directed ducts are in fluid communication with the intake and define inner vent openings;
• a blower motor disposed proximate to inlets of the outer seat-directed ducts and the inner seat-directed ducts, wherein the blower motor is configured to direct air through the inlets;
• a first row of seating assemblies operably coupled to the first surface of the housing, wherein the first row of seating assemblies each define at least one air vent and include a seat air duct assembly that is in fluid communication with the outer seat-directed ducts, respectively, to direct air through the at least one air vent;
• and
• a second row of seating assemblies operably coupled to the first surface of the housing and disposed rearward of the first row of seating assemblies, wherein the second row of seating assemblies each define at least one air vent and include a seat air duct assembly that is in fluid communication with the inner seat-directed ducts, respectively, to direct air through the at least one air vent.
