  • Publication number: 20180340706
    Abstract: A fan coil unit is provided including a cabinet formed from a plurality of panels. A fan assembly is configured to circulate air through the cabinet. A heat exchanger assembly is positioned within the cabinet. The heat exchanger assembly includes at least one heat exchanger coil arranged in a heat transfer relationship with the air circulating through the cabinet. An inner surface of at least one of the plurality of panels is partially lined with an elastomeric foam insulation so that the air circulating through the cabinet does not contact the portion of the at least one panel lined with the elastomeric foam insulation.

  • Patent number: 4364495
    Abstract: The garment extender is used to stretch and size tubular portions of garments. The extender comprises three longitudinal bars, namely a first side bar, an intermediate bar, and a second side bar. The first side bar and the intermediate bar are fixedly spaced and secured to each other by vertically spaced cross bars. These cross bars have a row of engaging means on their upper surface. The second side bar has similarly spaced cross bars which are secured at one end to the second side bar and having a depending interengaging member at their other end adapted to interengage with any of the row of engaging means on the upper surface of the first-mentioned cross bars. The free end of these second-mentioned cross bars extend through openings in the intermediate longitudinal bar and may slide therethrough to provide a lateral adjustment of the second side bar with respect to the first two, and in doing so to accommodate garments of varying widths.
