Patent ID: 7143821

Claim:
An Apparatus for Cooling Metal Tubes comprising: a. a cooler housing ( 10 ) sized to receive one or a plurality of metal tubes ( 90 ); the one or a plurality of metal tubes ( 90 ) having a massive portion ( 92 ); the cooler housing ( 10 ) having an inside ( 73 ); b. a turbine ( 72 ) received by the cooler housing ( 10 ) and positioned to direct a coolant at the metal tube massive portion ( 92 ); power means provided to power the turbine ( 72 ); c. the cooler housing ( 10 ) having inlet and exhaust means to allow flow of coolant for cooling of the metal tube; d. the cooler housing ( 10 ) having a turbine side ( 20 ); the turbine side ( 20 ) having a turbine aperture ( 77 ); the turbine ( 72 ) received into a turbine housing ( 76 ); the turbine housing received by the turbine housing aperture ( 77 ); e. the turbine housing ( 76 ) is pivotally affixed by pivot affixing means at the turbine side ( 20 ) and turbine housing aperture ( 77 ) to pivot in the turbine housing aperture ( 77 ) from the inside ( 73 ) to a position outside the cooler housing ( 10 ); f. the cooler housing ( 10 ) being elongated and having an intake end ( 18 ) and an exhaust end ( 15 ); the turbine ( 72 ) mounted intermediate the intake end ( 18 ) and the exhaust end ( 15 ); g. metal tube supports ( 80 ) mounted with mounting means at the inside ( 73 ) of the cooler housing ( 10 ) to receive the metal tube ( 90 ) so that the turbine ( 72 ) directs a coolant at the massive portion ( 92 ); h. the turbine housing aperture ( 77 ) is intermediate the intake end ( 18 ) and the exhaust end ( 15 ); i. the cooler housing ( 10 ) having a back side ( 22 ), bottom ( 23 ) and top ( 30 ); inlet and exhaust means may be positioned in the top ( 30 ), backside ( 22 ), or bottom ( 23 ) or turbine side ( 20 ); j. inlet and exhaust means comprised of intake vents ( 60 ) at or proximal to the intake end ( 18 ); at least one exhaust hole ( 50 ) at or proximal to the exhaust end ( 14 ); k. pivot affixing means comprising a turbine housing hinge ( 70 ); the turbine housing ( 76 ) pivots to place the turbine housing ( 76 ) at the inside ( 73 ) of the cooler housing ( 10 ) for ease of transport of the cooler ( 1 ) and at the outside of the cooler housing ( 10 ) for cooler ( 1 ) operation.
