According to the present invention, a mold generation prevention apparatus for an air conditioner for a vehicle, is able to, when the cooling operation of the air conditioner is ended and the engine of the vehicle is turned off, perform the dehumidification operation, which is to dehumidify the inner air of the air conditioner by using a dehumidification filter including a dehumidifier, thereby effectively removing moisture in the inner air of the air conditioner and preventing the proliferation of mold and germs and the odor which are caused by moisture. In addition, the mold generation prevention apparatus is able to perform the regeneration operation when the cooling operation of the air conditioner is started, to regenerate the dehumidification filter and cool and dehumidify high-temperature and humid air in an evaporator, thereby maintaining the pleasantness of the air in a vehicle room while regenerating the dehumidification filter. The present invention comprises a dehumidifier case, a dehumidification filter, a heating unit, and a control unit.
본 발명에 따른 자동차용 에어컨의 곰팡이 발생 방지 장치는, 에어컨의 냉방 운전이 종료되고 자동차의 시동이 꺼지면, 제습제를 포함한 제습 필터를 이용하여 에어컨의 내부 공기를 제습하는 제습 운전을 수행함으로써, 에어컨의 내부 공기의 습기를 효과적으로 제거하여 수분으로 인한 곰팡이나 세균 번식 및 악취를 방지할 수 있다. 또한, 에어컨의 냉방 운전이 시작되면 재생 운전을 수행하여, 제습 필터를 재생시키고 나온 고온 다습한 공기를 증발기에서 냉각 및 제습시킴으로써, 제습 필터를 재생시키면서도 차실의 공기의 쾌적도를 유지할 수 있다.
