A local cleaned air supply device includes: a power supply unit, a control unit, and a freely rotatable cleaned air supply unit. The cleaned air supply unit, which includes a fan driven by driving electric power, and of which a height position, a swing angle in a left-right direction, and a tilting angle can be freely adjusted, is configured so that air drawn therein is cleaned by passing through a pre-filter and a main filter and is then discharged toward a front side thereof from an air discharge opening. The cleaned air supply unit also includes a sighting unit that visualizes a range in which high cleanliness is guaranteed in a space on the front side of the cleaned air supply unit. The sighting unit includes a plurality of laser emitting units that output laser beams, to surround the range, toward a front side of the air discharge opening.
Abstract:
A fine particle diffusion device includes: a first outlet (10a to 10c) through which a first air current is discharged to a space above a living space within a living room; a second outlet (10d) which is arranged below the first outlet (10a to 10c) and through which a second air current is discharged to a space below the first air current; and a fine particle generation device (17) which generates fine particles. Here, the fine particles generated by the fine particle generation device (17) are discharged into the living room, and the concentration of the fine particles discharged through the first outlet (10a to 10c) is lower than the concentration of the fine particles discharged through the second outlet (10d).
Abstract:
An air passage device for installation into a mounting opening (50) in a wall (51) for components generating waste heat, such as a switch box, includes a base housing (21; 221) with a fan support (25) and a design cover (80; 280), wherein the design cover (80; 280) has on an air inlet side a covering device (100) constructed as a fan grid (10; 210) with sheet elements (90, 90′; 290, 290′). At least one swivellable sheet element (90) or at least one flexible, tongue-shaped side wall section (235), separated from the remaining side wall surface by slits (332, 333) running transversely to the longitudinal direction of the side wall, is formed in the region of the upper side wall of the design cover (80; 280) facing away from the swivel axis (26; 226) for swivelling the design cover (80; 280), wherein the sheet element (90) and the tongue-shaped side wall section (235) are formed between the design cover (80; 280) and the base housing (21; 221) as a detachable and lockable detent connection (40; 240), that can be operated by a finger.
Abstract:
The purified air discharge device comprises a push hood (2) comprising an air flow discharge surface (23) discharging a uniform purified air flow. The push hood (2) is provided with a lateral air discharger (28) for creating a purified air flow that collides against a surrounding wall that is formed as the push hood (2) is installed and that is situated close along the circumferential direction of the air flow discharge surface (23) of the push hood (2).
Abstract:
An environmental improvement system for placement within a room bounded by a floor and a ceiling is provided herein. In one embodiment, the system comprises a duct system that extends through the open volume of the room from the floor to the ceiling. The duct system comprises a base unit at a first end terminating proximate the floor, a support unit at a second end terminating proximate the ceiling, and a duct connecting the base and support units. The base unit defines a first opening, and the support unit defines a second opening. At least one fan is disposed between the first and second openings and draws air from the room into and through the system and discharges the air from the system. The first and second openings are each adapted to selectively act as an intake opening or as a discharge opening.

Abstract:
Systems and method for operating and monitoring refrigerators are described. Temperature cycles within the compartment are characterized using statistical, frequency and pattern analysis techniques to derive a steady-state characteristic of temperature within the compartment. A thermal sensor inside the conditioned area is monitored and temperature data sets can be analyzed to determine performance in comparison to a baseline, and energy consumption. Analysis of continuous temperature readings taken from individual or groups of freezers identifies patterns of variations in temperature cycles from which feedback on efficiency can be inferred. Electrical load can be determined by measuring or estimating current usage and identifying periods of time when compressors are active in the refrigerator.
