A method of manufacturing a transport refrigeration unit is provided. The method includes providing an enclosure including an outer layer and a supporter. Providing the enclosure includes supplying one of a first material and a second material to a mold. This also includes supplying the other of the first material and the second material on the one of the first material and the second material that is supplied to the mold. Also, this includes curing the first material and the second material integrally that are supplied to the mold. The first material forms into the outer layer and the second material forms into the supporter. The second material includes a plurality of reinforcing fibers.

A transport refrigeration system (1) includes a transportation refrigeration unit (37); a generator (11) connected to a wheel axle (7A) of the transport refrigeration system (1), the wheel axle (7A) being coupled to a wheel (5), wherein the generator (11) is configured to be driven to generate electricity by rotation of the wheel axle (7A) and to supply that electricity to the transportation refrigeration unit (37); and a damper (23) connected to the wheel axle (7A) between the wheel (5) and the generator (11). Short spikes or pulsations in torque along the wheel axle (7A) resulting from, e.g., harsh braking or wheel blocking can be, dampened, either wholly or partly, by the damper (23) such that damage to the transport refrigeration system (1) can be avoided.

A container refrigeration unit (10) is provided. The container refrigeration unit includes a container (20), a curtain (30), a seal element (40) and a sealing adapter (50). The container includes sidewalls defining an open end (26) and a curtain track (27) proximate the open end. The curtain is sized to cover the open end. The sealing adapter is fittable to the curtain track. An entire periphery of the curtain and an entirety of the seal element are sequentially fittable to the sealing adapter.

There is disclosed a power generation assembly (300) for powering a transport refrigeration system (TRS) (52) of a vehicle (10), the power generation assembly (300) comprising: a torque converter (402) having an engine side input (404) and a transmission side output (406); a power take-off device (302) coupled to the engine side input (404) of the torque converter (402), the power take-off device (302) having a rotary output; a permanent magnet generator (304) having a rotor (420) directly coupled to the power take-off device (302) for power generation; wherein the power generation assembly (300) is configured to be housed in an engine bay (210) of a vehicle (10), and is configured to generate at least 8 kW of power when the engine side input (404) has a rotational speed of 500 rpm.

A guide member extends from an opening of a casing toward an internal space. The guide member guides the temperature sensor to the internal space. The detector and the lead wire of the temperature sensor are held by the guide member.

A mobile store includes a frame supported by wheels and a body enclosure mounted on the frame. The body enclosure is formed of a front wall, a first longitudinal sidewall, a second longitudinal sidewall, a rear wall, and a roof. The body enclosure is divided into a working chamber and a storage-and-hygiene chamber by an interior wall having an interior door. The first longitudinal sidewall includes a first transaction window. The second longitudinal sidewall includes a second transaction window. The rear wall has a doorway with an entry door mounted with hinges to the rear wall to close the doorway. A first awning mounted with hinges to the first longitudinal sidewall closes the first transaction window. A second awning mounted with hinges to the second longitudinal sidewall closes the second transaction window. The mobile store unites the convenience of a convenience store with the flexibility of a food truck.
