Abstract: A vacuum broom apparatus for removing particulate debris from surfaces such as those of floors includes a housing which has an upper wall from which protrudes a vacuum inlet tube connectable to a vacuum power source. The housing includes a shroud which protrudes downwardly from the upper wall and peripherally surrounds a broom which protrudes downwardly within the shroud through a bottom opening thereof. One or more vacuum nozzles which communicate with the vacuum inlet tube are positioned adjacent to the broom. Optionally, a front wall of the shroud is elastically flexible to thereby effect an air dam between a lower edge of the front wall and a floor surface against which it may be pressed.

Abstract: An air conditioning apparatus for isolated interior spaces of structures includes a hollow tubular-shaped enclosure which has a longitudinally elongated box-like shape. The enclosure has a transversely disposed inlet opening, a transversely disposed outlet opening, and a fan for drawing air through the enclosure from the inlet side, the air being expelled from an outlet port in the outlet opening of the enclosure. The enclosure also includes an air filter, at least one evaporator connected to a refrigerant compressor and refrigerant-to-water heat exchanger/condenser, and an evaporative cooler assembly including a plurality of nozzles for converting water supplied under pressure to the nozzles to fine spray. Water supplied to and warmed by thermal contact with pressurized refrigerant in the water heat exchanger, as well as excess water spray which does not evaporate, is discharged to a location exterior to the enclosed space, such as a sewer drain, thus dumping heat energy to the exterior location.

Abstract: Toilet paper dispenser comprising (1) an installable (2) flat backed wall mounted box (3) enveloping replacement toilet paper (4) removable through one of two openings wherein the user (5) is provided toilet paper (6) wet with soap or other anti-bacteria properties (7) reducing the probability of infection or contamination.

Abstract: A portable cordless unit includes an interchangeable broom and an intake collector which draws in dirt and the air—having passed through filters—can be blown out of the machine outside the room through a long hose. A switching circuit causes fan operation in the event a room needs vacuum in addition to a broom.

Abstract: An integrated system to filter water and cool air by coupling misting nozzles with compressors and a heat exchanger.
