ABSTRACT:
An air transfer system joins the plenum of a first vehicle section to the plenum of a second vehicle section in an articulated coach vehicle with minimal deflection or intrusion into the passenger space. A generally V-shaped collection manifold in the rear vehicle section carries air from a plenum to an outlet near the end and top center of the rear section. A similar manifold in the front section carries air from an inlet near the end and top center of the front section to the other plenum. A bellows of a relatively stiff rectangular cross-section joins the outlet and inlet to complete the connection, and deflects as the vehicle sections rotate without passenger space intrusion.
