Abstract

Abstract A ventilator is installed in a partially open window of a vehicle. An expanse of permeable material such as rigid wire cloth occupies the open portion of the window and is equipped with brackets for engagement with the window upper edge. A lower portion of the permeable material overlies the automobile window to provide secure engagement with the window to prevent unauthorized removal or displacement. A margin of the permeable material is provided with non-metallic material which seats within a window channel of the vehicle. Handles in place on the ventilator interior facilitate installation and removal from the vehicle. A fan assembly in place on the interior of the ventilator may be powered by vehicle electrical system or by a solar pad in place within the vehicle.
