SIMPLIFIED AIR COOLER This invention relates to air-cooling when installed within or attached to a building, domestic, otherwise or cool-room, and to an air-cooling system for the cabin of a vehicle, and the cooling of the carburetter in a vehicle propelled by an internal combustion engine.
It is known to provide cooling via a compressor as the driving force in such unit. This compressor cycles a liquid/gas to cool an evaporator over which a fan blows air that is cooled, into the building or vehicle to be cooled.
Such units use considerable amounts of power, usually electric and that vibration and noise are problems that will not go away It is an object of this invention to eliminate these adverse details.
15 In this invention, then the compressor is replaced with an absorption system, designed to use a static heat source.
This heat source is derived from a solar panel, microwave or fuel heating source, kerosene or similar, or a vehicle exhaust or other vehicle components. From these static heat sources, an oil 20 or water heat carrier circuit passes said heat from that heat source to a small holding tank.
A major description of this invention is that this heat is transferred to the absorption system via an oil or water heat-transfer medium. The reason for this extra circuit as described is topass an even-temperatureed liquid to the actual cooling circuit. This heat circuit is only the carrier S 25 between the heat-source and the actual cooling circuit.
Goo: Within this heating circuit is installed a small electric motor and pump to keep a forward motion in the heating liquid. Therefore the actual air cooler unit may be anywhere desired, the Sheat being taken to it via insulated tubing. The actual cooling circuit is now described.
A coil or folded tube is passed to gather heat therein. This tube is part of the real cooling circuit, gathering heat at that point and taking that heat and gassified refrigerant to an expander unit where it suddenly cools by expansion and is co,,tinued onward by a second small pump incircuit to be reheated and expanded as controlled by the action of the first heating oil/water circuit.
In Summary, This SIMPLIFIED AIR-COOLER comprises: 1. A closed-loop heating circuit, where a liquid is passed, via a small pump, from a heating source into an intermediate small holding tank, and is returned to recycle again.
2. A second closed-loop of liquid is also pumped by a second small pump. This is a refrigerating liquid and passes from the holding tank to an expander where a fan blows the cooled air into the area to be cooled.
Again, the liquid is recycled in its own circuit as described.
0O 3. This holding tank's only purpose is as a heat-transfer. The first-described circuit carries heat from the source to the tank where the second refrigerating circuit transferrs that heat via its own circuit and cools by its expansion.
4. At the exchanger position, a fan blows the so-cooled air into the desired area.
20 This is seen at fig. 1 following.
Not having a compressor, as most designs, it is light and less power used to drive the unit. It is almost noise-less in running and easier to keep in running condition.

Claims (1)

1. An air-cooler comprising, a closed loop heating circuit with a liquid which passes from a heat source to an intermediate holding tank; a first pump in this circuit pumps this liquid in this heating circuit, a closed loop cooling circuit with a liquid which passes from the intermediate holding tank to an expander in the area to be cooled; a second pump in this circuit pumps this liquid in this cooling circuit, the intermediate holding tank has a separate liquid, solely in heat exchange relationship with the heating and cooling circuits, this liquid which has been 15 heated from the heating circuit, heats the cooling circuit liquid as it returns from the expander, a fan blowing air over the expander in the area to be cooled. 0 Stanley Neil FOXCROFT 30 March 1994 *6 0* *O
