摘要

The utility vehicle cabin roof comprises a hollow shell (1) formed by top (2) and bottom (3) walls joined by side walls (4). The roof bottom wall has a part projecting over the outside of a gutter (9). The bottom wall has an orifice (14), with a grille (15), forming communication between the interior and exterior of the shell. Inside the shell is housed an air conditioning fan unit (16). Air distributors (18) supplied by the fan unit are mounted on the bottom wall inside the gutter perimeter. The shell encloses a flexible air circulation duct (20) extending between the fan and the distributors. This causes the interior volume of the roof to be covered by a part of the circulated air flow (19). The hollow shell has several internal partitions defining independent air circulation channels.
