AIR-CONDITIONING DEVICE FOR USE IN A VEHICLE FOR PASSENGER TRANSPORT

An air-conditioning device for use in a vehicle for passenger transport has an outer housing for accommodating components of the air-conditioning device. A supply fan in the form of a radial fan conveys conditioned supply air in the direction of a passenger compartment of the vehicle. Air that is taken in by the supply fan is deflected outwards, in relation to an axis of rotation of the impeller of the supply fan, in such a way that the air impinges on inner surface regions, associated with the supply fan, of an enclosing apparatus radially surrounding the supply fan. The inner surface regions of the enclosing apparatus are provided with adsorption structures which are designed to separate droplets/aerosols out of the deflected air.
