  • Patent number: 8672614
    Abstract: Exhaust apparatus for exhausting “dirty” exhaust gases accept a core flow of such exhaust gases and combine that with an annularly-surrounding “rooftop” flow of ambient air for diluting the exhaust gases as well as expelling the diluted flow in a forcibly expelled plume in order to ensure that the “effective” expulsion distance of the expelled diluted flow is at least the physical length of the exhaust apparatus plus the gains gotten from efflux velocity and flowrate.

  • Patent number: 8653763
    Abstract: A ventilator includes a base, a drive device disposed on the base, an impeller coupled to the drive device and driven by the drive device, and a cover assembled with the base to define a closed area between the cover and the base for receiving a first circuit board therein, wherein when an AC power source is input to the first circuit board to be converted, a DC power source is output to drive the drive device.

  • Patent number: 8521333
    Abstract: An improved method and system for flue gas recirculation (FGR) from the ID Fan located downstream of a scrubber (or other Air Quality Control Equipment including cyclones, baghouses, etc., hereafter “AQC equipment”) back to the scrubber (or other AQC Equipment) inlet to maintain the minimum required flue gas throughput during low-load conditions, thereby eliminating the need for a separate booster fan. A flue gas recirculation duct is connected from downstream of the ID Fan to the inlet of the scrubber (or other AQC Equipment). A variable flow restrictor is placed in the duct downstream of the ID Fan for controlling pressure of the recirculated flue gas. The flow restrictor is controlled in accordance to a function of boiler load or flue gas flow to produce the required backpressure that enables the flue gas to flow through the recirculation duct back to the inlet of the scrubber (or other AQC Equipment) at low loads.

  • Patent number: 8262988
    Abstract: An antigen supply device 1 according to the present invention is mainly configured by a cylindrical member 3 extending in the vertical direction. An air suction port 5 for sucking the air in the antigen exposure chamber is provided at a lower end of the cylindrical member. An axial fan 6 that generates a flow of the air flowing upward in an axial direction of the cylindrical member is attached above the air suction port of the cylindrical member. Moreover, a supply port 4 through which high-concentration antigens are jetted from a dust feeder on the outside of the antigen exposure chamber is provided above the axial fan of the cylindrical member.

  • Patent number: 7992552
    Abstract: A cooking device body having a heating chamber for heating an object; a fan for discharging air in the heating chamber; and an exhaust duct for guiding air blown off from said fan to the outside of the cooking device body are provided, an opening is provided at a wall of said exhaust duct, and the fan is constructed to have a motor disposed outside the exhaust duct, a first plate which has a central side attached to the motor and an outer edge side attached to the periphery of the opening, a bladed wheel which is attached to the output shaft of the motor and disposed in the exhaust duct, and a second plate which defines a cavity between said bladed wheel and the first plate.

  • Patent number: 5595030
    Abstract: An aparatus adapted to be mounted on a sewer vent stack to inhibit frost buildup in cold weather including a supporting frame containing a central rotatable shaft with a wind turbine on the end exposed and four vanes on the end within the vent pipe. The rotation of the shaft will cause frost build up to be scraped off by the vanes. Lack of rotation in a breeze will indicate excessive build up and a possibly dangerous situation.
