  • Cooler assembly for a vehicle cooling system
    Patent number: 8616265
    Abstract: The invention concerns a cooler assembly for a vehicle cooling system, with a cooling unit pivotally attached to a retaining element. The retaining element is slidable in a lengthwise direction along a guide element which is attached to the cooling system, so that the cooling unit can be moved from an operating position by sliding and subsequent pivoting into a maintenance and cleaning position.
