Cab for truck with air cooled engine - has roof mounted warm air outlet with deflector baffle

摘要

The warm air outlet for the air cooled engine is at the rear end of the top of the driver's cab, with forward facing outlet (8). A sloping baffle (16) in front of the outlet, sloping upwards and rearwards, directs the outflow backwards and prevents a formation of a low pressure region. The air inlet for the engine is set to one side of the warm air outlet, slightly forward and above the outlet. The front edge of the driver's cab has a deflector (18) to reduce turbulence. ADVANTAGE - Reduced slipstream separation and prevention of dirt suction.
