Abstract

A control device of a blower and air conditioner module a for motor vehicle is disclosed with a blower controller and an air conditioner controller, which governs the refrigerating plant with a refrigerant condenser, as well as flaps and valves of the blower and air conditioner module, and processes information from sensors and a man-machine interface, with the blower controller and the air conditioner controller, together with a blower motor controller of a blower motor designed as a central control device and it is placed on the blower motor.

Claims (29)

1 . A control device of a blower and air conditioner module for a motor vehicle comprising:

a blower controller which controls a blower motor;

an air conditioner controller which controls a refrigerating plant including a refrigerant condenser, wherein the air conditioner controller processes information received from at least one sensor and a man-machine interface;

an actuator controller which controls actuators of at least one of a flap and a valve of a blower and air conditioner module; and

a central control device disposed on the blower motor, wherein the blower controller, the air conditioner controller, and the actuator controller are integrated into the central control device.

2 . The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the blower controller includes a blower motor controller and the blower motor controller is integrated into the central control device.

3 . The control device according to claim 2 , wherein the blower motor is an electronically commutated motor and the central control device is embedded in the blower motor controller.

4 . The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the central control device is an integrated circuit.

5 . The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the central control device is a replaceable module.

6 . The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the central control device is modular and individual modules are replaceable and able to be combined corresponding to a function to be achieved.

7 . A control device of a blower and air conditioner module for a motor vehicle comprising:

a blower controller which controls a blower motor;

an air conditioner controller which controls a refrigerating plant including a refrigerant condenser and at least one of a flap and a valve of a blower and air conditioner module, and wherein the air conditioner controller processes information from at least one sensor and a man-machine interface;

a condenser motor controller which controls a condenser motor of a refrigerant condenser; and

a central control device disposed on the condenser motor, wherein the blower controller, the air conditioner controller, and the condenser motor controller are integrated into the central control device.

8 . The control device according to claim 7 , wherein the condenser motor is an electronically commutated motor and the central control device is embedded in the condenser motor controller.

9 . The control device according to claim 7 , wherein the central control device is an integrated circuit.

10 . The control device according to claim 7 , wherein the central control device is a replaceable module.

11 . The control device according to claim 7 , wherein the central control device is modular and individual modules are replaceable and able to be combined corresponding to a function to be achieved.

12 . A control device of a blower and air conditioner module for a motor vehicle comprising:

a blower controller which controls a blower motor, wherein the blower controller includes a blower motor controller;

an air conditioner controller which controls a refrigerating plant including a refrigerant condenser, wherein the air conditioner controller processes information received from at least one sensor and a man-machine interface;

a condenser motor controller which controls a condenser motor of a refrigerant condenser; and

a central control device disposed on one of the condenser motor and the blower motor, wherein at least two of the blower controller, the blower motor controller, the air conditioner controller, and the condenser motor controller are integrated into the central control device.

13 . The control device according to claim 12 , wherein the central control device is disposed on the condenser motor and the condenser motor is an electronically commutated motor, and wherein the central control device is embedded in the condenser motor controller.

14 . The control device according to claim 12 , wherein the central control device is disposed on the blower motor and the blower motor is an electronically commutated motor, and wherein the central control device is embedded in the blower motor controller.

15 . The control device according to claim 12 , wherein the central control device is an integrated circuit.

16 . The control device according to claim 12 , wherein the central control device is a replaceable module.

17 . The control device according to claim 12 , wherein the central control device is modular and individual modules are replaceable and able to be combined corresponding to a function to be achieved.
