BATTERY CHARGER WITH WIND TUNNEL COOLING
First Claim
1. A battery charging system, comprising:
- a main housing having a main chamber including a base, an end panel mounted on each end of the base, and a cover enclosing the end panels;
at least one battery charging connector connected to the housing;
a power supply connected to the at least one battery charging connector, the power supply providing a battery charging electrical power to the at least one battery charging connector, the power supply having at least one heat generating electrical device; and
a tunnel formed at least partially within the main chamber and extending between the end panels in the main chamber, the at least one heat generating electrical device at least partially extending into the tunnel to be exposed to air in the tunnel to cool the at least one heat generating electrical device.

Abstract
A battery charging system which includes a main housing with a main chamber defined by a base, an end panel mounted on each end of the base, and a cover enclosing the end panels. At least one battery charging connector is connected to the housing. A power supply is connected to the at least one battery charging connector, where the power supply provides a battery charging electrical power to the at least one battery charging connector. The power supply has at least one heat generating electrical device. A tunnel is formed at least partially within the main chamber and extends between the end panels in the main chamber. At least one heat generating electrical device at least partially extends into the tunnel to be exposed to air in the tunnel to cool the heat generating electrical device.

20. A method of manufacturing a battery charging system, comprising the steps of:
-
forming a housing having a main chamber defined by a base, an end panel mounted on each end of the base, and a cover enclosing the end panels; connecting at least one battery charging connector to the housing; connecting a power supply having at least one heat generating electrical device to the at least one battery charging connector to provide a battery charging electrical power to the at least one battery charging connector; forming an inner chamber in the main chamber extending between the end panels to form a tunnel; and mounting the at least one heat generating electrical device to at least partially extend into the tunnel to receive the air flowing through the tunnel to cool the at least one heat generating electrical device.
