Abstract

A fresh air supply device in a motor vehicle which is installed in an accessories compartment. The engine compartment partition and passenger compartment partition which adjoin the accessories compartment are joined together in the center of the vehicle by means of a frame in which a lower trough-like casing part equipped with a blower is suspended from above. A water separator forming an integral component part of the upper casing part disposed on the lower casing part surrounds an upwardly projecting connection piece carrying a fine filter by its collecting vessel and by the two water outlets leading away therefrom.
