A partition includes a plurality of panels and an elongate panel joiner. The plurality of panels includes a first panel and a second panel that are adjacent about one another. The elongate panel joiner joins the first panel and the second panel. The panel joiner includes two end members and a corrugated portion there between. The end members are configured along opposite ends of the panel joiner. One of the two end members is configured to connect to the first panel and the other of the two end member is configured to connect to the second panel. The corrugated portion is configured such that the panel joiner can move in an accordion-like manner.

An ignition containment system is provided for absorption refrigeration systems. The system encloses the burner area to contain an inadvertent ignition of gases that may have escaped from the refrigerant tubing or elsewhere. By containing a potential fire or vapor leak, the system can substantially mitigate the spread of a fire to other nearby combustible materials, further damage to the appliance, and fire or smoke damage to property or materials beyond the appliance. The ignition containment system can also include an electrical detection device that can indicate an abnormal rise in temperature, a presence of foreign material, or the presence of ignitable gases in the contained or encapsulated ignition chamber. Detection of any one of the above can trigger a termination of the ignition source.

A refrigerator cabinet having a selected height and width used in a recreational vehicle, the improvement comprises an installation template permanently installed as a ventilation frame. The installation template produces manufacturer specified ventilation requirements for the ventilating refrigerating apparatus provided on the refrigerator and located on the refrigerator within the refrigerator cabinet. The installation template includes a top, bottom and side flanges, the dimensions of each of the flanges being selected according to the height, width and ventilation requirements of said refrigerator. Ambient air flow through the installation template may be used to produce the specified ventilation requirements for the refrigerating apparatus. In addition, an air movement device for providing air flow through the installation template for ventilation around the refrigerating apparatus may be used, such as a fan, reducing the amount of ventilation area required for the installation template.

A vent cover assembly for a side vent of a recreational vehicle which includes a frame to be mounted at the vent opening and a vent cover removably retained within the frame. The frame has a planar main wall which forms a rectangular-shaped central opening and rectangularly-shaped and vertically spaced apart air inlets at each lateral side of the central opening. The vent cover is removably retained within the central opening of the frame such that a front surface of the vent cover is co-planar with a front surface of the frame. The vent cover has a planar main wall which forms a plurality of rectangularly-shaped and vertically spaced apart air inlets. The air inlets of the frame effectively form extensions of the air inlets of the vent cover.

A refrigerator is located in a central island or wall of a vehicle. An air duct extends downwardly from the refrigerator through a floor of the vehicle. A fan is installed in the duct to aid air circulation. The fan is controlled by a temperature switch located on a condenser of the refrigerator. Air for cooling the condenser and an absorber are drawn up the duct from outside the vehicle and exhausted outside the vehicle through an upper duct and vent in a roof of the vehicle.
