An ice machine includes: an ice maker including: an ultrasonic bin sensor mounted to a body; and a controller in electrical communication with the ultrasonic bin sensor and configured to control the ultrasonic bin sensor; and a storage bin coupled to the ice maker and sized to receive a mound of ice, a lens of the ultrasonic bin sensor facing a bottom of an interior cavity of the storage bin, the controller configured to process a return signal of the ultrasonic bin sensor to control a level of ice stored inside the storage bin, the controller further configured to apply a predetermined time delay to filter out a portion of the return signal that exceeds a threshold voltage but does not exceed the time delay.

A port connection includes a first element, a second element, and a seal. The first element has a first sleeve and a first flange. The first sleeve is configured to slide into a port disposed through a pressure plate of the plate heat exchanger and the first flange having a first bearing surface to bear upon a first face of the pressure plate. The second element has a second sleeve and a second flange. The second sleeve is configured to slide into the port and the second flange having a second bearing surface to bear upon a second face of the pressure plate. The seal is generated in response to the first sleeve telescoping into the second sleeve.

The disclosure provides a liquid cooling heat exchanger, comprising a first cover plate, a second cover plate and a fin, the first cover plate and the second cover plate stacked on each other so as to form a chamber therebetween, the fin disposed within the chamber, the first cover plate made of a composite material, wherein there is a bonding layer between the first cover plate and the second cover plate, and the bonding layer has a melting point lower than melting points of the first cover plate, the second cover plate and the fin. The disclosure also relates to a method for making the liquid cooling heat exchanger.

A cooler station comprising a liquid cooler, which has a first distributor box consisting of a hollow extruded section made of aluminium having outwardly open guide groove, and comprising a platform which can be pushed onto the liquid cooler and fixedly connected thereto by mechanical connecting elements which can be inserted into the guide grooves of the first distributor box. The cooler station comprises a set of platforms, wherein in each case one platform can be connected to the liquid cooler, and comprises the set of platforms which have the different hydraulic and/or electrical connections. The cooler station can be installed in a liquid cooler system which also comprises a blower, a liquid tank and a liquid filter. The liquid cooler, the blower, the liquid tank, and/or the liquid filter can each be selected from a set, such that a modular system is produced for providing from liquid cooler systems.

A frameless cooling module includes a first and a second shroud panel arranged at opposing sides of the module and extending from the front of the module to the back of the module. At least one L-shaped stiffener bracket extends between the panels at an intermediate location along both the height direction and the depth direction of the module. One or more heat exchangers is arranged within the cooling module between the L-shaped stiffener bracket and the front of the module, and is at least partially secured within the cooling module by being mounted to the L-shaped stiffener bracket.

The present invention relates to a cooling module for a vehicle, and more particularly, to a cooling module for a vehicle including a condenser, a first radiator through which coolant for an engine flow, a second radiator through which coolant for electrical components flows, and an intercooler, and capable of evenly distributing air resistance of the front surface of the first radiator to secure an overall balance of an air volume distribution by disposing the condenser, the second radiator, and the first radiator in a flow direction of air or disposing the second radiator, the condenser, and the first radiator in this order, and disposing the intercooler on lower sides of the condenser and the second radiator, and capable of minimizing a gap of each heat exchange period by disposing the condenser C and the first radiator R to be in closely contact with the second radiator L.
