  • Publication number: 20220387657
    Abstract: An ultraviolet air sanitizer apparatus for HVAC systems has a frame defining a flow passage therethrough configured such that the frame rear is insertable into a return air inlet of the HVAC system. A sanitizer light is disposed within the flow passage. When activated, the sanitizer light emits germicidal ultraviolet light into the surrounding flow passage. A light baffle is disposed within the flow passage upstream of the sanitizer light and allows air flow but blocks light. An air pressure sensing switch is electrically connected to the sanitizing light and configured to measure air pressure differential across an air filter. When the air pressure differential is a predetermined value or greater, which is indicative of air circulation by the HVAC system, the switch turns on the sanitizer light. When the pressure differential is less than the predetermined value, the switch turns off the sanitizer light.

  • Patent number: 10844866
    Abstract: A fan apparatus comprises a frame, a central shaft mounted to the frame, and three or more suspension elements formed from a flexible material. Each respective suspension element has a first end, a second end and an adjustment mechanism operable to change a length of the suspension element. The first ends are attached to the frame and the second ends are attached to a ceiling structure to suspend the apparatus. The frame height can be adjusted by changing the lengths of all of the suspension elements by a same amount and the orientation can be adjusted by changing the lengths of the suspension element by different amounts. A blade assembly with central hub and plurality of fan blades is mounted on the shaft, a housing surrounding the blade assembly is mounted on the frame, and an electric motor is operably connected to the central hub rotate the blade assembly.
