  • Patent number: 6805623
    Abstract: Apparatus for providing airflow within a vehicle. A first housing portion is mounted over a vehicle vent which defines an internal plenum dimensioned to receive the manually adjustable vent handle. A second adjacent plenum is defined by a second housing portion which extends to a fan port at which are mounted one or more battery powered electric motor driven fans. These fans are mounted pivotally as is the mount upon which they are supported. The apparatus may employ Pelfier devices for interior air temperature enhancements. One heatsink of these thermal devices is located within that plenum communicating with ambient or outside air, while the oppositely disposed interior air treatment heatsink is located within an adjacent forwardly positioned plenum. A low battery detector and annunciator assures maintenance of the vehicle battery power supply.
