  • Patent number: 6374628
    Abstract: A cooling device having an air conduit for cooling air, which flows horizontally through a heat exchanger, for instance an evaporator, with vertically positioned fins, and with an air deflector, which is positioned below the evaporator and collects evaporator condensation water. For a troublefree cooling air flow and a controlled condensation water removal, the evaporator is placed on the air deflector in such a way that the evaporator fins extend up to the air deflector. The air deflector and evaporator are inclined, the inclination falling away to a free, rear edge of the air deflector directed into the air conduit.
    Type: Grant
