Abstract:
An evaporative cooler is disclosed wherein at the four corners of the usual cube shaped cooler structure is added four outwardly protruding projections, each of the projections having louver openings on both its sides, as well as on the four sides of the cooler, with watered pads immediately behind in order to substantially increase the wetted pad area through which air flows into the evaporative cooler. In addition to the usual interiorly contained blower and water pump mechanisms in the cooler, a pad holding structure is disclosed to accommodate a single pad for each of the angled side members of the evaporative cooler, the structure including in addition to the side member a plurality of connected wire screens which attach to the side member at its edges, the wire screens and the side member compressibly encompassing a single pad over the whole side.
