Flow Director (29) Patents (Class D23/387)
  • Patent number: 10309684
    Abstract: The air flow director is configured for use with a grille associated with an HVAC system. The air flow director attaches directly to the grille. The air flow director changes the direction of the air flow through the grille in a traverse direction and a lateral direction. The traverse angle of the deflection of the air flow is adjustable. The lateral angle of the deflection of the air flow is adjustable. The air flow director can be rotated around both a lateral axis of rotation and a traverse axis of rotation without being disconnected from the grille. The air flow director comprises a first triangular panel, a second triangular panel, a deflection panel, and a fastener. The first triangular panel, and the second triangular panel are attached to the deflection panel. The fastener attaches the deflection panel to the grille.

  • Patent number: 7794313
    Abstract: An air register cover assembly (1) comprising a front panel (2) having a face and rear portion (18) and (19), at least one spacer (4) located on the rear portion (19) and a means for hanging the front panel (2) in front of an air duct (21). An alternate embodiment may include an air register housing (5) which is fitted within an air duct. The housing (5) includes housing openings (7) to permit air from an air duct (21) to be expelled. The front panel (2) may include an insulated backing (8) having spacers (4) attached thereto. When in use, the air register cover assembly (1) re-directs the air flow so as to be expelled around the front panel (2), rather than directly into a room. The use of the present invention not only circulates air within a room, but it also makes air registers more attractive.

  • Patent number: 7651390
    Abstract: A ceiling vent air diverter is taught, in the preferred embodiment, which incorporates a diverter body configured to cover beneath an existing air vent supplying air to a room of a building. The diverter body has a rectangular flat bottom and upstanding sides with each upstanding side having a discharge air slot permitting air to be distributed in opposed directions from the diverter at a ceiling level. A peripheral flange extends outwardly from each side of the body, in parallel relationship with the bottom and is used for attachment to the building ceiling. A second embodiment is configured and functions in the same manner as above but covers over the top of an existing air vent and includes a lip on the underside of the flange. The third embodiment is for a ceiling air duct diverter system consisting of a box like housing with side walls, an open top and open sides to divert air flow and having the capability of affixing the open top near a ceiling air vent.
