A roof assembly for a work vehicle includes a roof panel having a vertical peak positioned longitudinally between a forward end and a rearward end of the roof panel. In addition, the roof panel includes a forward surface extending from the vertical peak to the forward end of the roof panel, and the roof panel includes a rearward surface extending from the vertical peak to the rearward end of the roof panel. The roof panel also includes a ridge extending around a periphery of the roof panel. The ridge has a first gap positioned at the rearward end of the roof panel, a second gap positioned at the forward end of the roof panel, and a third gap positioned at a first lateral end of the roof panel. In addition, the roof panel does not include a channel extending along the roof panel.

A device for realizing a cooling effect in a space comprises: a housing with a heat-conducting wall, which housing bounds a chamber through which air can flow; an air inlet which connects to the chamber and to said place, —an air outlet connecting to the chamber; air transport means for transporting air from the air inlet via the chamber to the air outlet; and moistening means for moistening the inner surface of the wall; this such that air supplied by the air transport means is introduced into the chamber via the air inlet, passes along the moistened inner surface of the wall in the chamber and is discharged from the chamber via the air outlet, whereby the water present on the inner surface of the heat-conducting wall evaporates and is entrained by the air flowing by, and the wall is cooled.

A roof top air conditioner unit for a vehicle, in particular a recreational vehicle, wherein the roof top air conditioner at least in part is made of expanded polypropylene (EPP). At least one stabilizing and/or connecting element of the roof top air conditioner unit is mold in the section of the roof top air conditioner unit made of EPP. Furthermore, the present invention refers to a method for producing, assembling and installing such roof top air conditioner units and a vehicle having such a roof top air conditioner assembly.

An outdoor cooling unit for vehicular air conditioning apparatus includes: a casing including an outlet section, inlet sections having an inlet plane inclined; a first heat exchanger facing one of the inlet sections and a second heat exchanger facing an other of the inlet sections; at least one propeller fan below the outlet section to blow out air upwardly. An angle formed between the normal line to the inlet plane and the z axis is an acute angle. Each of the blades includes a blade chord center point on an inner peripheral end thereof and an other blade chord center point on an outer peripheral end thereof, positioned so that a line segment connecting therebetween has an inclination to the outlet section proportionally to closeness to outer periphery of the blade. A blade chord center line forms a curve being convex toward the outlet section across the entire area.

A cab for a machine. The machine has a longitudinal axis extending between a front, and a back opposite to the front. The cab includes a roof and a floor extending generally about the longitudinal axis. A vertical seat index axis extends through intermediate portions of the roof and the floor and is associated with a position of the operator disposed to face the front. The vertical seat index axis intersects perpendicular to the longitudinal axis at an intersection. A plurality of support members are disposed between the roof and the floor, including a rear support member disposed at a rear end of the cab. At least an upper portion of the rear support member is positioned at an angle relative to the intersection at an angle along the longitudinal axis and defines a rear view opening to facilitate rear end visibility of the machine.

Condenser systems for vehicle air conditioning systems and processes for controlling condenser systems are disclosed. The condenser systems include a plurality of fans that can be activated and/or deactivated based on a load indicating parameter of the heat transfer circuit of the air conditioning system.

A HVAC apparatus for a vehicle having a fan unit with at least one impeller driven by a motor; a heat exchanger unit forming an air duct receiving air from the fan unit, wherein the heat exchanger unit comprises a heat exchanger having at least two different cooling regions with different working temperatures through which received air flows consecutively; and wherein the different working temperatures are controlled by a temperature control unit; and a plate-shaped housing accommodating the fan unit and the heat exchanger unit.

In order to provide a motor vehicle, the roof of which is composed of a transparent material at least in some sections, wherein persons located in the motor vehicle are cooled by means of escaping air, air outlet openings are formed on both sides on opposite roof frame longitudinal segments, in each case in accordance with the number of seat rows. Air lines are provided, which convey air conditioned by at least one present air conditioning system to at least one air outlet opening. Sensors that detect occupancy of the present seats by a person are provided, and a controller for the present air conditioning system is provided, which adjusts an air conditioning system from the number of present air conditioning systems in such a way that an air flow having a predetermined temperature and having a predetermined air outlet speed is applied to an upper region of a person located on a seat.

An air-conditioning duct in a passenger car of transportation which is extended in a vehicle length direction in a ceiling portion of the passenger car utilized by the general public and receives conditioned air from an air-conditioning apparatus regulating a temperature of the air to guide the conditioned air into an inside of the passenger car. The air-conditioning duct in a passenger car has a non-uniform distribution configuration which makes the discharge volume of the conditioned air from the air-conditioning duct into the inside of the passenger car different and non-uniform among the respective regions of the inside of the passenger car.

A vehicle temperature-control system includes a refrigerant circuit (22). The refrigerant circuit includes a compressor (24), at least one condenser heat-exchanger assembly (28) around which air (L1) to be heated can flow, and at least one evaporator heat-exchanger assembly (40), around which air (L2) to be cooled can flow. For each of the two heat-exchanger assemblies (28, 40), there are two inflow regions (48, 50, 78, 80) and two outflow regions (62, 64, 84, 86), which can be switched by means of flap assemblies (44, 56, 88, 92). Both a heating operating mode and a cooling operating mode are selected with the flap assemblies. A heat pump operation in the vehicle, e.g., a bus, is enabled.
