Abstract: A transport refrigeration unit includes a fan and nozzle unit, a heat exchanger coil, and an axial fan having a vertically oriented fan axis. The axial fan is positioned within the fan and nozzle unit to draw air through the heat exchanger coil and discharge the air vertically upwards. A mounting bracket is used to mount the axial fan in the fan and nozzle unit. The mounting bracket includes a main support member having an opposing first surface and second surface and a through hole and at least one sidewall integrally formed with and extending from the second surface. The at least one sidewall has a smooth front surface and a curvature of the front surface facilitates flow towards a fan inlet.

Abstract: A fan wheel and a method of manufacturing thereof are disclosed. The fan wheel comprises a first wheel portion comprising a first plurality of impeller blades, and a second wheel portion comprising a second plurality of impeller blades, wherein the first wheel portion is over-molded to the second wheel portion to attach the first wheel portion to the second wheel portion.
