The second chiller receives refrigerant flowing out of the second chiller control block outlet, through the first chiller, and into the second chiller refrigerant fluid path.

Abstract: Provided is a method for an unmanned aerial vehicle to handle goods in cooperation with an autonomous vehicle. The method performed by the unmanned aerial vehicle includes at least: capturing an image of the autonomous vehicle having a goods storage box; recognizing a marker displayed in the goods storage box by analyzing the captured image; identifying a region occupied by the marker on the captured image; adjusting a relative position of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the autonomous vehicle. The marker displayed in the goods storage box is covered by a lid of the goods storage box and placed in a state that cannot be captured by the unmanned aerial vehicle. The marker is exposed in a state that can be captured by the unmanned aerial vehicle only when the lid of the storage box is opened by communication between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle refrigeration system includes a compressor, a condenser in fluid communication with the compressor, a chiller, a vapor injection module, and a refrigerant control block. The refrigerant control block includes a plurality of outer walls which provide a plurality of openings in fluid communication with a plurality of internal fluid paths. The plurality of openings include a VPI block outlet and a chiller block outlet.
