Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019183001A1] An HVAC module for a vehicle includes a housing. A shaft end is connected to a shaft for connection to a complementary actuator for adjusting a rotational position of the shaft to thereby adjust a position of an airflow control door in the housing. The shaft end defines an actuation axis. An externally threaded boss, coaxial with the shaft end, is defined on an exterior surface of the housing. A rotation stop post projects from the housing to engage a catch defined by the complementary actuator. The housing is to retain the complementary actuator by threading engagement with the externally threaded boss and by engagement between the rotation stop post and the catch to selectably prevent rotation of a shell of the complementary actuator about the actuation axis. The complementary actuator is interchangeably an electrically powered rotary actuator and a manually operable rotary actuator.
