Temperature control apparatus including air return bulkhead for mounting in a transportable body

摘要

A temperature control apparatus for mounting in a transportable body includes a false ceiling having a plurality of ducts defined therethrough. The ducts extend through a single compartment or between two or more compartments when such two or more compartments are defined within the transportable body. A shutter mechanism controls the flow of temperature-treated air flowing between compartments, thereby controlling the temperature in the various compartments. To provide a flow of temperature-treated air into the apparatus, the apparatus includes an air channeling structure which can be adjusted to divert different quantities of air into the apparatus. The temperature control apparatus also includes an air return bulkhead connectible to the transportable body for channeling return air from the false ceiling directly to the unit by which the air is temperature-treated.
