Patent number: 6623350Abstract: An air filter apparatus filters air drawn into a vehicle. The air filter apparatus is disposed in an instrument panel in a passenger compartment of the vehicle. The air filter apparatus includes an air filter housing and a filter element disposed in the housing for filtering the air that is drawn into the vehicle. The housing includes an external air side and an internal air side. A filter channel of the housing is defined between the external and internal air sides. The filter element is disposed in the filter channel. The housing further includes a filter access port defined between the external and internal air sides and that extends from the filter channel. The filter access port terminates adjacent an outer skin of the instrument panel such that the filter element can be selectively removed from the filter channel for service and/or replacement of the filter element from the passenger compartment.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2002Date of Patent: September 23, 2003Assignee: Delphi Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Gerald M.

Patent number: 6318103Abstract: The present disclosure relates to electrical component heat dissipation and, more particularly, to a method and apparatus for dissipating heat from a power control module. In one embodiment the invention is a power control module having a housing and an electrical connection. A thermally conductive material is placed between the power control module and a surface of an evaporator core with a first side of the thermally conductive material in contact with the power control module and a second side in contact with the surface of the evaporator core. The thermally conductive material conducts heat from the power control module to the surface of the evaporator core.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2000Date of Patent: November 20, 2001Assignee: Delphi Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Yvonne D. Rieger, William F. Rausch, Mark W. Stevenson, Chad S. Pinger
