  "textContent": "An in-seat mini-bar assembly, apparatus and method of manufacture is provided. The assembly includes a housing (5) that is insertable into a compartment of the seating module and includes a container (30) with an interior cavity that is conductively cooled by thermo-electric elements of a micro-chiller unit mounted on a conductive rear plate that forms an exterior side of the container. A vent (450) is configured proximate to a front section of the housing to receive outside air forward of the housing for channeling the outside air to a rear section of the housing using a duct (430) attached to the vent at the front section. The duct (430) is shaped for a fluidic intake of the outside air by a frontal flange having a wide cross-sectional area that is gradually tapered to a circular cross-sectional area to direct the airflow in a uniform manner.",
