  • Publication number: 20230258365
    Abstract: An environment control system includes a louver (20a), a motor (21), a temperature sensor (40), a determination unit (53), and a control unit (55). The determination unit (53) determines a position of a person in a particular area on the basis of data of surface temperatures detected by the temperature sensor (40). The control unit (55) controls the motor (21) in such a manner that an angular velocity of the louver (20a) becomes smaller as the position determined by the determination unit (53) is farther from the outlet (18b) when air from an outlet (18b) is blown toward the position.

  • Publication number: 20230151995
    Abstract: An environmental control system includes an air conditioner body (1), a human body detector for detecting a human body, and a system controller for controlling the air conditioner body (1). The system controller executes a first control when a distance from a human body detected by the human body detector to the air conditioner body (1) is a first distance, and executes a second control when a distance from a human body detected by the human body detector to the air conditioner body (1) is a second distance larger than the first distance. The air conditioner body (1) blows air from one of the air outlets 20 toward the human body detected by the human body detector when the first control is executed, and blows air from at least two air outlets (20) toward a human body detected by the human body detector when the second control is executed.

  • Patent number: 10207017
    Abstract: A deodorizer includes: a body case having an inlet and an outlet opening outward and having an air duct that provides communication between the inlet and the outlet; a blowing fan included in the body case, for introducing indoor air into the air duct extending from the inlet to the outlet; deodorizing means provided in a middle of the air duct, through which the introduced air can pass; heating means placed to face at least a partial region of the deodorizing means, for heating the deodorizing means at 200° C. or less; and a controller for controlling operations of the blowing fan and the heating means. The deodorizing means includes, on a carrier, an adsorbent that does not oxidatively decompose an adsorbed material, a catalyst component that oxidatively decomposes the adsorbed material, and a rate of conversion of alcohol into acetic acid by the catalyst component is 15% or less on average across the entire deodorizing means.
