  • Patent number: 9242529
    Abstract: A ventilation device includes an impeller rotatable to move air from an air inlet end to an air outlet end of the impeller. An opening is defined in a rear end of the housing. The rear end of the housing is fixed to the air inlet end of the impeller. The housing includes a hemispherical wall defining an interior space. The hemispherical wall has a plurality of annularly spaced and a plurality of annularly spaced outer holes, with the inner holes spaced from the outer holes in a radial direction. A plurality of tubes is formed on an inner face of the semispherical wall, with each tube extending from a corresponding one of the inner and outer holes into the interior space but spaced from the rear end of the housing.

  • Patent number: 7303668
    Abstract: A filtering device includes a hollow casing and a plurality of tubes. The casing includes an interior defined by a surrounding wall. The casing further includes a plurality of through-holes defined in the surrounding wall and in communication with the interior of the casing. Each tube extends through an associated one of the through-holes of the casing into the interior of the casing. In another embodiment, a filtering device includes a first hollow casing and a second hollow casing received in the first hollow casing. Each of the first hollow casing and the second hollow casing includes an interior delimited by a surrounding wall. A plurality of through-holes are defined in each of the surrounding walls of the first hollow casing and the second hollow casing.

  • Patent number: 7282143
    Abstract: A septic tank includes a chamber, an inlet through which waste water enters the chamber, an outlet, and an outlet pipe mounted to the outlet. At least one partitioning member is mounted in the chamber and separates the chamber into at least a first subchamber adjacent to the inlet and a second subchamber adjacent to the outlet. The partitioning member includes a plurality of through-holes allowing communication between the first subchamber and the second subchamber. The partitioning member prevents the suspensions and deposits in the first subchamber from entering the second subchamber. A submersible pump may be mounted in the first subchamber for creating recycling currents.

  • Publication number: 20070227526
    Abstract: An exhausting apparatus includes a duct defining an exhaust channel having an inlet and an outlet, a first fan mounted in the duct, and a first backpressure-inhibiting device mounted in the duct and located in front of the first fan. The first backpressure-inhibiting device includes a partitioning plate having a plurality of through-holes. A negative pressure area is created between the first backpressure-inhibiting device and the first fan when the first fan is driven. Waste gas exhausting efficiency of the exhausting apparatus is enhanced.
