Embodiment Construction

[0031] In all figures, the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals.

[0032] exist figure 1 and figure 2 In the preferred embodiment shown in , the sensor 2 comprises a housing 6 with a connection 15 and a plug housing for the cable harness. The joint 15 includes such as Figure 4 Ports 66, 72, 74, 80 shown. The housing 6 also has locking clips 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 for mounting the housing 6 and housing 14 and locking clips 17 for mounting the sensor 2 on a dashboard.

[0033] The housing 6 and / or the housing 14 are preferably made of PC (polycarbonate) or a material through which IR light passes, especially commercially available macrolon. The housing 14 is connected to the housing 6 , preferably via a snap connection. Alternatively and / or additionally, screw connections and / or adhesives can also be provided for the connection.

[0034] In the housing 6, a computing module 20 (see Figure 4 ), the computing module is connected to the photodiode 24 at the...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a sensor (2) for determining solar altitude information, and the sensor comprises at least one diode (24) for measuring the intensity of sunlight, wherein the sensor furthermore has a calculation module (20) that has ports (72, 74) for the input of time and position-based data, is used for determining a current sun position from the position-based data, the time-based data and the measured sunlight intensity, and is used for providing a sun position output signal at the output port (80).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sensor for determining information on the height of the sun, said sensor comprising at least one diode for measuring the intensity of sunlight. The invention also relates to a method for controlling and / or regulating an air-conditioning unit of a motor vehicle, wherein the method measures the sunlight intensity by means of the sensor. Background technique [0002] For optimizing the temperature regulation in an air-conditioning unit or multi-zone air-conditioning unit, it is necessary to take into account the prevailing solar radiation, which can be done at least in part by means of sensors. Existing 3D sensors are known to determine the position of the sun and the intensity of solar radiation by using multiple photodiodes. But due to the constraints of the vehicle body, especially the rear-facing photodiodes can only detect sunlight intensity within a limited range. Furthermore, the orientation of the individual photodiode...
