An ejector has: a motive flow inlet; a secondary flow inlet; an outlet; a motive nozzle; a diffuser; and a control needle shiftable between a first position and a second position. The ejector comprises: an inlet body bearing the motive flow inlet and the secondary flow inlet; a diffuser body forming the diffuser and bearing the outlet; a motive nozzle insert forming the motive nozzle in a compartment in the inlet body; and a needle guide insert in the motive nozzle insert.

Ejectors and methods of manufacture

A refrigeration system for an interior space (), includes an evaporator coil () and evaporator fan () residing within the interior space, the evaporator coil () being configured for refrigerating the interior space (); an evaporator motor () coupled to the evaporator fan () along an axial shaft; a condenser coil () and fan () disposed adjacent to the evaporator motor (); and an insulation panel () that separates the evaporator motor () from the evaporator fan ().

Component mounting in an integrated refrigerated container

A pre-wired auxiliary power circuit () is built into a transport refrigeration system for supplying electrical power to an optional auxiliary system when installed in connection with the transport refrigeration unit. A low cost safety interlock () is provided in association with the auxiliary power circuit.

A method for reducing air leakage from a refrigerated container includes positioning at least one inflatable device about a rear end of the refrigerated container; coupling the at least one inflatable device to one end of an elongated duct located within an interior space of the refrigerated container; coupling a second end of the elongated duct to an outlet port of the evaporator fan; circulating, via the evaporator fan, air through the interior space; and extracting the circulated air through the elongated duct and into the at least one inflatable device.

Embodiments of systems, apparatus, and/or methods can control conditions such as temperature within a container of a transport refrigeration system. Embodiments can include a controller for controlling the transport refrigeration system to reduce power consumption. Embodiments of systems, apparatus, and/or methods for operating the same can control cycling of a transport refrigeration unit to conserve power where a subsequent cycle time in a power savings mode is based on at least one previous cycle time. In addition, components can be enabled based on monitored conditions to reduce power consumption.
