Abstract

This invention patent is a utility type of car fan controller. The controller has a housing and inside the housing is a circuit. The housing has a top cover forming a cavity and flat bottom plate. The circuit has a circuit board and an adjustment device with other electronic components. The circuit board has a socket connector and a wire harness connector. The top cover has socket connector aligned with socket connector opening. The top cover also has a wire harness connector aligned to wire harness connector socket. The modular practical new type of invention design facilitates faster assembly and more convenient flexible use.

Claims (28)

1. A car fan controller comprising:

a. a housing having a top cover and a bottom plate formed as a planar member;

b. a circuit disposed on a circuit board;

c. an adjustment device disposed on the circuit board;

d. a socket connector disposed on the circuit board, wherein the top cover has a socket connector opening aligned with the socket connector;

e. a wire harness connector disposed on the circuit board, wherein the top cover also has a wire harness connector aligned to a wire harness connector socket, and further comprising a wire harness connector opening having a bottom wall aligned with the wire harness connector and the wire harness connector opening; and

f. a fan, controlled by the circuit disposed on the circuit board.

2. The car fan controller of claim 1 , wherein the top cover aligns with an adjustment device of the circuit board which is aligned with an adjustment device window, wherein the adjustment device window has a water resistant elastomeric plug.

3. The car fan controller of claim 2 , wherein, the wire harness and the wire harness connector opening connect via a wire harness plug; wherein the wire harness plug connects via connecting wire to a thermocouple.

4. The car fan controller of claim 3 , wherein, the wire harness has connecting wire connected to a small plug connector.

5. The car fan controller of claim 4 , wherein, the bottom plate can have mounting surface on both sides with mounting holes.

6. The car fan controller of claim 1 , wherein, the wire harness and the wire harness connector opening connect via a wire harness plug; wherein the wire harness plug connects via connecting wire to a thermocouple.

7. The car fan controller of claim 6 , wherein, the wire harness has connecting wire connected to a small plug connector.

8. The car fan controller of claim 7 , wherein, the bottom plate can have mounting surface on both sides with mounting holes.

9. A car fan controller comprising:

a. a housing having a top cover and a bottom plate formed as a planar member, wherein the housing is substantially hollow forming a cavity for retaining components within;

b. a circuit disposed on a circuit board, wherein the circuit further comprises a relay for switching power on and off;

c. an adjustment device disposed on the circuit board;

d. a socket connector disposed on the circuit board, wherein the top cover has a socket connector opening aligned with the socket connector;

e. a wire harness connector disposed on the circuit board, wherein the top cover also has a wire harness connector aligned to a wire harness connector socket, and further comprising a wire harness connector opening having a bottom wall aligned with the wire harness connector and the wire harness connector opening; and

f. a fan, controlled by the circuit disposed on the circuit board and switched on and off by the relay on the circuit.

10. The car fan controller of claim 9 , wherein the top cover aligns with an adjustment device of the circuit board which is aligned with an adjustment device window, wherein the adjustment device window has a water resistant elastomeric plug.

11. The car fan controller of claim 10 , wherein, the wire harness and the wire harness connector opening connect via a wire harness plug; wherein the wire harness plug connects via connecting wire to a thermocouple.

12. The car fan controller of claim 11 , wherein, the wire harness has connecting wire connected to a small plug connector.

13. The car fan controller of claim 12 , wherein, the bottom plate can have mounting surface on both sides with mounting holes.

14. The car fan controller of claim 9 , wherein, the wire harness and the wire harness connector opening connect via a wire harness plug; wherein the wire harness plug connects via connecting wire to a thermocouple.

15. The car fan controller of claim 14 , wherein, the wire harness has connecting wire connected to a small plug connector.

16. The car fan controller of claim 15 , wherein, the bottom plate can have mounting surface on both sides with mounting holes.
