Patent number: 11927358Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) unit configured to supply conditioned air to a conditioned space. The HVAC unit includes a first exhaust fan capable of operating at variable speeds and a second constant-speed fan. The HVAC unit also includes a controller configured to determine a target airflow to be provided to the conditioned space, cause actuation of the first exhaust fan at a variable fan speed when the target airflow is greater than zero, and cause actuation of the second exhaust fan when the target airflow is greater than an airflow threshold.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: JOHNSON CONTROLS TYCO IP HOLDINGS LLPInventors: Gaurav S. Patil, Naushad Parapurath Monangat, John L. McElvany, Karan Garg

Patent number: 11555629Abstract: A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a discharge section housing forming a chamber, a first opening formed in the discharge section housing such that the chamber is configured to receive an air flow from a blower of the HVAC system via the first opening, and a second opening formed in the discharge section housing such that the second opening is positionally offset to the first opening. The chamber is configured to discharge the air flow through the second opening. The HVAC system also includes a guide extending across the chamber and sloping toward the second opening such that the guide is configured to direct the air flow from the first opening toward the second opening.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2020Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: Johnson Controls Tyco IP Holdings LLPInventors: Sumedh J. Suryawanshi, Kirankumar A. Muley, Gaurav S. Patil, Pankaj B. Avhad
