A tractor has a front bonnet which houses an engine and a cooling arrangement, the cooling arrangement having a fan, a radiator, and a mounting plate. The bonnet has a hood and two opposing side parts. A grill is positioned at the front of the bonnet through which air passes and enters the cooling arrangement. An extended fan shroud has a lower part which extends from the bottom half of a fan ring in a forward direction and an upper part which extends rearwards from the upper half of the fan ring towards the radiator over the mounting plate. A flange extends from the lower part of the fan shroud diagonally along opposing sides of the upper part and across the upper part of the fan shroud. The flange has a sealing member. When the bonnet is closed and in contact with the sealing member, two air compartments are defined.

Vehicle cooling arrangement

A vehicle engine cooling arrangement including a fan, a radiator and a mounting plate. The plate provides a fan mounting surface and a radiator mounting surface so that the fan and radiator are in a spaced arrangement. The plate extends from under the fan at the front of the vehicle to under the radiator downstream of the fan and guides air from the fan to the radiator.

An agricultural vehicle having a cooling system comprising a fan. The cooling system is housed in a bonnet of the vehicle. When the bonnet is closed it forms a part of a fan shroud of the fan and directs air in a direction parallel or substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
