  • Publication number: 20100251739
    Abstract: A package marine air conditioning unit places an evaporator coil on the inlet side of an enclosing cabinet, an axial supply fan on an opposing outlet side of the cabinet, and a compressor disposed between the evaporator coil and the supply fan. Locating the compressor within the air stream on the leaving air side of the evaporator coil allows cold air to flow around the compressor thereby providing beneficial compressor cooling. An axial flow supply fan located downstream of the compressor functions to draw return air in a generally lineal flow path across the evaporator coil and around the compressor, for discharge in an axial direction thereby resulting in a generally linear air flow path through the unit. A cabinet is provided to enclose the components thereby allowing for the installation of electric heating elements. Enclosing the components within a cabinet avoids the need to paint or otherwise coat the enclosed components thereby reducing manufacturing costs.

  • Patent number: 6579137
    Abstract: A outboard marine electrical generator unit capable of installation on the transom of a marine vessel which provides an electrical generating unit for small and medium sized marine vessels. The invention thus provides an A/C and D/C electrical power source capable of providing electrical power for appliances, air conditioning units and other electrical loads, even while the primary propulsion system is off and the vessel is docked or at anchor.
