Patent number: 10371411Abstract: A modular air-handling plenum for capable of supporting surgical apparatus or other objects is disclosed. The plenum is usually rectangular, may be formed of sheet metal, and features a truss spanning the width of the plenum to carry the weight of the apparatus. The plenum itself is attached to the ceiling of a room. An air handling component may be included to provide filtered and/or conditioned air in the vicinity of the suspended apparatus, or the plenum may be used strictly as an apparatus support, with no air-conditioning function. An ordinary suspended ceiling may also be mounted in the plenum for continuity with the remainder of the room.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2009Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: Nortek Air Solutions, LLCInventors: Zareer Cursetjee, Kevin Schreiber, David L.

Patent number: 8087492Abstract: A filter bank is provided. The filter bank includes a housing having a front face and a back face. Air flows along an air flow path from the front face to the back face. A filter layer is held in the housing. The filter layer is oriented between the front and back faces such that air flows through the filter layer before discharging from the back face. An attenuation layer is positioned within the housing to attenuate sound as the sound propagates between the front and back faces. The attenuation layer is oriented to extend along the air flow direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2010Date of Patent: January 3, 2012Assignee: Huntair, Inc.Inventors: Zareer Cursetjee, David L.

Patent number: 7918911Abstract: A seal around the perimeter of an air passageway which passes between adjacent plenums in an air-handling system includes a first channel containing a sealant which is located in the first plenum and extends around the periphery of the passageway. The first channel partially overlies the sidewall of the plenum and partially extends past the exposed edge of the plenum walls. A second channel, which is similarly located in the second plenum, also contains a sealant. A first blade projects from the wall of the first plenum into the sealant in the first channel, and a second blade projects from the wall of the second plenum into the sealant in the second channel. A third blade, which extends into the sealant in both the first and second channels, is located inwardly of the edges of the channel walls that form the perimeter of the passageway.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2007Date of Patent: April 5, 2011Assignee: Cleanpak InternationalInventors: Zareer Cursetjee, David Baugh
