Abstract
A cabin air control system for a vehicle comprises an air conditioning device having a positive pressure region in communication with a cabin, and a negative pressure region in selective communication with the cabin and/or outside environment via a circulation control device, and an adsorption device comprising a single adsorption assembly and a switching device configured to switch the adsorption device between a standby mode, an adsorption mode and a regeneration mode.
Claims13
A cabin air control system for a vehicle, the cabin air control system comprising:
- an air conditioning device having a positive pressure region in communication with a cabin, and a negative pressure region in selective communication with the cabin and/or outside environment via a circulation control device;
- and
- an adsorption device comprising a single adsorption assembly and a switching device configured to switch the adsorption device between a standby mode, an adsorption mode and a regeneration mode,
- wherein the adsorption assembly comprises:
- a housing;
- a heater disposed in the housing;
- and
- an adsorption unit disposed in the housing and downstream of the heater, the adsorption unit being configured to adsorb moisture and/or carbon dioxide and/or harmful gas, the heater being configured to heat air before being delivered to the adsorption unit when activated, and the heated air being used to regenerate the adsorption unit, and
- the switching device comprises:
- a first port in communication with an intake passage of the adsorption assembly;
- a second port in communication with an outlet passage of the adsorption assembly;
- a third port in communication with an intake pipe connected to the positive pressure region;
- a fourth port in communication with a return pipe connected to the negative pressure region;
- and
- a fifth port in communication with an exhaust pipe.
