ABSTRACT:
A vehicle fan shroud made integrally with a coolant reservoir comprising a shroud unit molded from a non-transparent material with a flat flange portion and a hub portion for a radiator fan, and coolant reservoir having a shape that matches the configuration of the flange and hub, which is made from a semi-transparent material for observing the level of the coolant in the reservoir. The reservoir is made in the form of an open box and is welded to the flange portion with its open side so that the flange of the shroud closes the open part and forms a wall a wall of the reservoir. A distinguishing feature of the device of the invention is that a coolant supply nipple portion projecting from said top, a coolant supply tube located inside said coolant reservoir, and a drain pipe extended from said bottom portion are coaxial and molded integrally with the rest of the reservoir. These tubular parts are located in the corner inside the reservoir, and the coolant supply tube extending to the lever below the lower allowable level of the coolant in the reservoir but above the bottom portion of the reservoir.
