Patent number: 11857705Abstract: An air treatment unit having a frame and a source of UV light, with the frame having an air guidance assembly. Air within a primary treatment volume is guided by the frame to move radially outwardly from the primary treatment volume through a dispersion angle. Air within the primary treatment volume is exposed to UV light rays from the UV light source. The air treatment unit is changeable between: a) a first state wherein a predetermined part of a volume of space within which the air treatment unit resides is strategically blocked from direct exposure to UV light rays generated by the UV light source; and b) a second state wherein at least a portion of the predetermined part of the volume of space is directly exposed to UV light rays from the UV light source.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2020Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: AERAPY LLCInventors: David Skelton, Mike M. Uda

Patent number: 11759541Abstract: An air treatment unit has: a frame; a source of UV light; and an air moving assembly that causes air within a space to be directed into a volume that has UV light rays therein from the source of UV light. The air treatment unit has a primary treatment volume. The frame has an air guidance assembly that extends substantially fully around an axis extending through the primary treatment volume and defines at least one elongate opening through which disinfected air is communicated from the primary treatment volume in a pattern substantially fully around the axis to outside of the frame and the air treatment unit in a radial direction within a region of the space outside of the primary treatment volume.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2023Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: AERAPY LLCInventor: David Skelton

Patent number: 10806818Abstract: A method of treating air passing through an air handling unit having a housing extending around an air handling space and a primary air treatment system that treats air as the air passes through the air handling unit between air inlet and outlet locations on the air handling unit. First and second fixtures are obtained, each having a housing and a UV light source. The first and second fixtures are strategically mounted to the air handling unit so that UV light from each of the UV light sources on the first and second fixtures treats air moving through the air handling unit with the UV light sources on the first and second fixtures energized. The first and second fixtures are serially electrically connected to a power source to thereby cause the UV light sources on the first and second fixtures to be energized through the power source.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2018Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: Petairapy LLCInventor: David Skelton

Publication number: 20200297890Abstract: An air treatment unit and method of treating air in a space using the air treatment unit. The air treatment unit has a frame and a source of UV light that is configured to generate UV light rays that disinfect air. The frame has a primary treatment volume and an associated air guidance assembly. Air within the primary treatment volume is controllably guided by the frame in a radially outwardly moving pattern while being exposed to light rays from the UV light source.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2020Publication date: September 24, 2020Inventors: David Skelton, Mike M.

Patent number: 8528262Abstract: System, device and method for providing screened protection to gutters from clogging debris. Protection is provided by using a panel that includes rain siphoning louvered technology. The louvers may be covered by a filter or screen. If the openings of the louvers are closed to a certain degree, a screen may be dispensed with. The panel is sloped such that debris rolls off a surface of the panel. Additionally, the louvered portion may be domed. The panel ends on one side in a locking mechanism that locks to an outer lip of the gutter and on the other side in a corrugated edge that fits under the overhang of the roof such that it need not be inserted under the shingles.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2010Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Inventors: James W. Horton, Russell Verbrugge, Robert Heilman, David Skelton, Hal Klaus
