Abstract
A cooling device including a first storage compartment and a second storage compartment disposed adjacent to the first storage compartment. An evaporator is disposed adjacent a wall of the second storage compartment. An air distributor assembly is disposed within the second storage compartment such that the evaporator is positioned between the air distributor assembly and the wall. The air distributor assembly includes an air plenum and a first flow path defined therein. A first damper is disposed within the air distributor assembly. The first damper is movable between first and second positions. When the first damper is in the first position, a first portion of airflow received in the air plenum is permitted to flow into the first flow path. When the first damper is in the second position, the first portion of the airflow is hindered from flowing into the first flow path.
