<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an engine cooling device that prevents loss of engine driving force required for driving a pump of a fan, and efficiently utilizes a space on a vehicle for installing the other equipment by eliminating limitation on installation of a radiator. <P>SOLUTION: The engine 1 is cooled by circulating cooling water between the engine 1 and the radiator 4 by an electric pump 7. An electric fan 5 supplies air to the radiator 4 to dissipate heat from the cooling water. A solar panel 3 is arranged on a loading space of a truck, to supply generated electric power to the electric pump 7 and the electric fan 5 to be operated. When the generated electric power is insufficient, deficiency is compensated by electric power supplied from an electric system 15 of the vehicle. When the generated electric power is excessive, surplus power is supplied to the electric system 15. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
