20120090347AIRFLOW DIVERTER FOR A COOLING COMPARTMENT - An airflow diverter for a cooling compartment. The airflow diverter is disposed between an evaporator outlet and an evaporator inlet of the cooling compartment, which forms a barrier between the evaporator outlet and evaporator inlet by preventing direct flow of air from the evaporator outlet to the evaporator inlet. Because air is prevented from immediately flowing back to the evaporator inlet from the evaporator outlet, the airflow path of cooled air exiting the evaporator outlet is lengthened. As such, the airflow diverter allows cool air to fully circulate within the cooling compartment before returning to the evaporator inlet. This creates a more efficient cooling system and a more uniform temperature within the cooling compartment04-19-2012
