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.

A vehicle air-conditioning apparatus that exhibits improved energy saving performance is provided. In addition, a vehicle with such a vehicle air-conditioning apparatus is provided. The vehicle air-conditioning apparatus includes a cooler provided in a first air passage, and a first air-sending device including a motor and a fan provided in the first air passage, and configured to drive the fan with the motor to thereby generate an airflow that flows into a vehicle interior through the first air passage. At least a part of an outer surface of the motor is located outside the first air passage.

A refrigerated storage unit 1 includes: a refrigeration chamber S2, a refrigeration part 3 for cooling air inside the refrigeration chamber S2, a fan 4 for sending cold air cooled by the refrigeration part 3 into the refrigeration chamber S2, a temperature sensor 5 for detecting a temperature inside the refrigeration chamber S2, an infrared sensor 8 for detecting a temperature of a content provided inside the refrigeration chamber S2, and a control part 7 for controlling driving of the fan based on a result detected by at least one of the temperature sensor 5 and the infrared sensor 8.

A ventilation system for a motor car includes an electronic display for displaying information and an air distribution chamber disposed on a back of the electronic display where air from the air distribution chamber is flowable through an air outlet and into an internal space of the motor car. An air calming chamber is disposed on a back of the air distribution chamber. The air calming chamber is at least partially separated fluidically from the air distribution chamber and is connected fluidically to the air distribution chamber via at least one through hole where via the at least one through hole the air distribution chamber is suppliable with air to be supplied to the internal space from the air calming chamber.

An air outlet of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (“HVAC”) system of a vehicle includes a duct and a plurality of primary vanes. The duct has an inlet aperture for receiving an airflow from the HVAC system, and an outlet aperture that is open to a passenger compartment of the vehicle. The plurality of primary vanes are coupled to the duct at the outlet aperture. Each primary vane has an asymmetrical airfoil shape including a leading edge and a trailing edge. The leading edge is disposed within the duct and upstream of the trailing edge.

A system is disclosed for conducting energy from a refrigeration trailer to a truck for controlling temperature in the truck. The system comprises a refrigeration unit coupled to the trailer for cooling a first chamber of the trailer. The refrigeration unit has a first heat exchanger configured to cool a fluid. A second heat exchanger is disposed in a second chamber and is in fluid communication with the first heat exchanger in a coolant loop. An air moving device in the second chamber is operable to convey cold air from about the second heat exchanger to cool the second chamber (e.g., a truck cabin). A heater can provide heat for conveying into the second chamber. A power source in the refrigeration unit can power the air moving device and the heater, and other electronic devices associated with the truck. Associated methods are provided.

This vehicle cooling device includes a duct communicating with a heating element disposed in a vehicle, an opening provided in the duct, positioned below a seat surface part of a seat disposed above a floor panel, and opening to a passenger compartment, and a fan supplying air suctioned into the duct from the opening to the heating element, in which the opening is positioned on a vehicle-body rear side with respect to a seat fixing part on a vehicle-body front side among seat fixing parts for fixing the seat to the floor panel in a state in which it is disposed on a vehicle-body rear side of a front end of the seat surface part.

An air cleaning apparatus mounted to an internal automobile structure selected from an armrest, a console, a seat, a headrest, an overhead console, a handle, and a door, includes an air inflow unit arranged in the internal automobile structure, through which air inside an automobile is introduced, an air cleaning unit which is arranged in the internal vehicle structure and filters the introduced air inside the automobile, a first air flow path arranged in the internal automobile structure, through which the air, having been introduced through the air inflow unit and filtered by the air cleaning unit, is discharged to the interior of the automobile, and a second air flow path arranged in the internal automobile structure, through which blowing air, having been introduced to the internal automobile structure and not having passed through the air cleaning unit, is discharged to the interior of the automobile.

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.

The present invention relates to an air conditioner with at least one air conduction device and a switching device. Provision is made that in a first operating state, the air conditioner has air passing at least partially through it in a first direction, that the air conditioner has air flowing through it at least partially in a second direction different from the first direction, and that the air conditioner has at least one switching device, to alter the flow direction of the air in the air conduction device.
