ABSTRACT:
A roof mounted air conditioning system is disclosed for motor vehicle use, particularly for use with vans and recreational vehicles, comprising a preassembled unit which can be easily installed in any convenient location upon the roof of a motor vehicle. The air conditioning system comprises, preferably in preassembled form, a condenser and associated compressor precharged with refrigerant, an auxiliary internal combustion engine, and an evaporator, where the evaporator depends from a base plate mounted upon the vehicle roof. An alternator with regulator, as well as a starter motor and storage battery, are used in combination with the internal combustion engine. Fuel is supplied to the engine by a standard electric fuel supply pump connected with the vehicle fuel supply tank or a specially provided fuel tank when installed on a travel trailer. The roof mounted air conditioning system is encased in a protective, streamlined cowling. For protection in the event of fire, heat sensors disconnect the fuel pump when a predetermined temperature is reached, and a time delay relay disconnects power-absorbing accessories until the auxiliary engine has operated for a predetermined time.
