| 发明名称 | Vehicle cabin heating system | ||
| 摘要 | A vehicle cabin heating system is provided basically with an infrared heater, a temperature sensor and a controller. The infrared heater is aimed to heat a target surface in front of the infrared heater within a vehicle cabin interior space. The temperature sensor is disposed in front of the first infrared heater to detect a measured temperature in front of the first infrared heater. The controller is operatively coupled to the first infrared heater to selectively operate the first infrared heater to a target surface temperature within the vehicle cabin interior space whenever an estimated surface temperature of a target surface is determined based on the measured temperature by the temperature sensor falls below a prescribed temperature range below the target surface temperature. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A vehicle cabin heating system comprising: a first infrared heater aimed to heat a target surface in front of the first infrared heater within a vehicle cabin interior space; a temperature sensor disposed in front of the first infrared heater, the temperature sensor being spaced apart from the target surface and being positioned closer to the first infrared heater than to the target surface; and a controller operatively coupled to the temperature sensor and the first infrared heater to selectively operate the first infrared heater to a target surface temperature within the vehicle cabin interior space whenever an estimated surface temperature of the target surface is determined based on the measured temperature by the temperature sensor falls below a prescribed temperature range below the target surface temperature. | ||
