  • Patent number: 6527005
    Abstract: An apparatus for diverting condensate which forms inside an exhaust system. The exhaust system comprises an exhaust side in which condensate may be formed, a suction side, and an exhaust fan between the exhaust side and the suction side and coupled to each of the exhaust side and the suction side to form a conduit through which gaseous fluid may be conveyed. A hollow tube having a first open end and a second open end is provided. The first end is coupled to the exhaust side and the second end is coupled to the suction side so that the hollow tube communicates between the exhaust side and the suction side in a manner bypassing the exhaust fan. A means exists inside the exhaust side for diverting condensate away from the exhaust fan apparatus. The means is positioned to channel condensate into the first open end of the hollow tube.

  • Patent number: 6293440
    Abstract: A dispenser which is specially adapted for use with a container for granular materials such as laxatives. The dispenser includes an outer housing and an open or hollowed-out shaft. The shaft is easily separable from the housing for simplified assembly, disassembly and cleaning. The open shaft has a selected volume for receipt of granular materials. The overall unit is designed so that a certain desired volume of material can be dispensed by turning the shaft to different positions.

  • Patent number: 4995309
    Abstract: An exhaust system for removing radon gas from a building. An electrical fan is mounted exteriorly of the building and is connected to and between a pair of conduits, one of which extends into the building for collection of radon gas, whereas the second tube extends outwardly to allow gas to be exhausted by the fan. A transition box located between the fan and conduit allows for the positioning of the fan apart from the building, whereas the connected conduit is positioned adjacent to blend with the building contour. A housing encloses the fan and conduits.
