Embodiment Construction

[0029] The invention particularly relates to figure 1 Vehicle 1. "Vehicle" means a device used to transport people and / or goods, such as land, water, rail, and air vehicles, especially airplanes, ships, and automobiles.

[0030] The invention also relates to a steering device 2, for example according to figure 2 The steering wheel of the car, the control lever or the lever of an aircraft or motorcycle.

[0031] Preferably, at least one control mechanism has a pivot lever 3. The pivot rod refers to the reference point or reference axis around which the steering mechanism moves to generate a steering signal. Examples are the so-called front end of a steering rod for motorcycles or a steering wheel cup with a steering wheel, a center point with a multi-dimensional operating control rod, or other reference points for a steering system with non-rotating operation such as a sliding controller.

[0032] Preferably, at least one steering mechanism has at least one handle 5. The handle me...

Abstract

The invention relates to a climate control device (15) for influencing at least one climate parameter of a handle (5) of a steering device (2). The climate control device (15) comprises an air moving device (21) and a handle distributer (26), wherein the air moving device (21) is used for providing air flow, and the handle distributer (26) is used for distributing the air flow towards at least one part of the handle (5). Furthermore, the air moving device (21) and the handle distributer (26) can be or are mounted in a static area which keeps static relative to adjusting movement of the steering device (2). The handle distributer (26) is provided with at least one air vent (35 and 35') so as to generate the air flow distributed from the handle distributer (26) in the static area towards the handle (5).

Description

Technical field [0001] The object according to the invention is a heating and cooling device for handles and steering mechanisms in order to influence at least one climatic parameter. It can be used, for example, for heating, cooling, or ventilating the handle of a vehicle door, steering wheel or control lever. Background technique [0002] It is known from US5850741 that the steering wheel is cooled by integrating heat pipes in the steering wheel. Because the steering wheel must meet several critical conditions such as crash safety, stability, and good grip for hands of different sizes or strengths, this system is difficult to implement. Summary of the invention [0003] Based on this background, a technical concept according to claim 1 is proposed. [0004] The teachings of the present invention are provided here for handles, vehicles or steering mechanisms, which are equipped with at least one device according to any teaching herein. [0005] The invention relates to a device fo...
