Abstract: A vibration suppressing mounting bracket for mounting the compressor of a vehicle air conditioner within a housing. The bracket is part of a mounting system for the compressor, the mounting system further comprising (1) a plurality of legs which are resilient mounts secured to the bottom of the compressor and to the housing, and (2) a pin extending from the top of the compressor which passes through a hole in a mounting plate, the plate also being secured to the housing. The bracket is formed from two arcuate segments which, when fastened together, form a substantially ring-shaped bracket which surrounds the cylindrical exterior of the compressor. The radially inner surface of the bracket is covered with a foam shock absorbing pad which is in contact with the compressor's exterior. The bracket is also bolted to the walls of the housing.

Abstract: A combination air vent and air scoop for the roof top of a motor vehicle has an integral body with an air inlet scoop in the front and an air outlet vent in the rear. The scoop is opened and closed by means of a panel which has a closed position in which it rests flush against the body of the device and an open position in which it extends inwardly into the interior of the device. The vent is opened and closed by means of a second panel which likewise has a closed position in which it rests flush against the body of the device and an open position in which it extends into the interior of the device. Means are provided for actuating the scoop panel and the vent panel independently. Both the scoop and the vent can be opened and closed while maintaining the body of the device in a fixed relationship with the roof of the motor vehicle.
