Abstract

457,883. Ventilating motor vehicles. ARMSTRONG, WHITWORTH, & CO. (ENGINEERS), Ltd., SIR W. G., WATKINS, D. J., SPAINK, J. H. ABBINK-, and WHITE, J., Scotswood Works, Newcastle-on-Tyne. May 7,1935, No. 13481. [Class 137] In the ventilation of a rail vehicle driven by an internal - combustion engine - electric installation, a fan for assisting or promoting a flow of air through the engine cooling means causes an entry of cool air into the vehicle, this air flowing from the electrical apparatus to the engine and being exhausted to the atmosphere. In one arrangement, Fig. 2, in which the engine 1 and electrical unit, including a generator 2, are arranged transversely of the coach, a fan 4 driven by the engine draws air through a radiator 3 for the engine cooling water, and through a conduit 5 having apertures 7 through which warm air is drawn from the vicinity of the engine. Fresh air is drawn through slots 8 at the side of the vehicle nearest the electrical apparatus. A similar arrangement may be used when the engine and electrical plant are arranged longitudinally of the coach the engine cooling means comprising two radiators one on each side of the coach and leading to a single fan and outlet. In Fig. 12, the fan 14 draws air through the radiator 3 and a trunk 21 which delivers into a second trunk 22 spaced from the first by an annular gap 23 through which air is drawn by an ejector action from the vicinity of the engine, a fresh air inlet 8 being provided, and the flow being assisted by a fan 18 on the generator casing. In Fig. 15, the gases from the exhaust pipe 24 from the engine are blown through a shaped tube 28 and draw warm air from the interior, the fresh air for cooling the radiator 3 being drawn in by a fan 14, and the warm air from the engine being drawn away through apertures 16.
