Patent number: 10156380Abstract: A duct is shaped and sized for connectability to a vent (or vent adaptor). The duct has an end portion with a flared section separated from a tapered flap section by a lip. The flaps are foldable inwardly at the lip upon engagement with the vent, and airflow through the duct presses the folded flaps against the vent for additional securement of the connection between same. Additional securement and stability may be provided by an adhesive retaining a tapered flap section to a flared section following inward folding of the tapered flap section.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2015Date of Patent: December 18, 2018Assignee: UNIQUE FABRICATING, INC.Inventors: Daniel Bianchi, Bradley J. Hazen

Patent number: 10139018Abstract: A foam duct is provided. Among other applications, it may be used in automotive HVAC systems. The method of making this duct reduces material waste and provides an unexpectedly reliable joint in a duct at a sharp or rounded corner. In place, the airflow further supports the joint. In the method, a first portion of a hollow pre-duct is joined with a second portion of a hollow pre-duct by bending the portions at a cut-out positioned between the portions. The bending is complete when the portions form a mechanical connection, which may be signaled by tactile or audible feedback.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2016Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: UNIQUE FARBICATING INCInventors: Daniel Bianchi, Bradley J. Hazen
