An outdoor window screen roll and an indoor window screen roll are arranged at a left stile and a right stile, respectively. An upper middle position and a lower middle position of the double-layered glass window unit are respectively in rotational connection with a top rail via an upper shaft and a bottom rail via a lower shaft. The ventilation system includes: an air supply chamber and an exhaust chamber, both of which provided therein with T-shaped air dampers and fans. Both external edges of the outdoor window screen roll and the indoor window screen roll are provided with magnetic tapes configured for fixation connection with the upper shaft and the lower shaft.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a panel-less shutter assembly comprise a series of parallel louvers mounted within a closed rectangular rail frame. Spring-loaded guides may be mounted between the rail frame and the window frame to self-center the assembly within the opening of the window frame. Carriers mounted on the ends of the louvers glide up and down within channels of the side rails to allow raising and lowering of the louvers. Spring-loaded channel slides may be coupled to the carriers. The channel slides have tabs that extend through slots in the side rails to maintain the positions of the louvers relative to the side rails. The tabs have a diagonal surface that engages the top edge of the slot to disengage the tab from the slot when a user raises the louvers. A method of using a panel-less shutter assembly is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A door assembly comprises a rectangular door frame that has a first, second, third, and fourth frame member. The first frame member has an outer surface that has a first pair of parallel slots. A first parallel flange protrudes from and perpendicular to the outer surface between the parallel slots. A vane extends from the first frame member to the second frame member between the third and fourth frame members. The vane has a first end that includes a pair of parallel flanges fitted into the parallel slots such that a rear surface of the first planar flange is arranged between rear edges of the first parallel flanges. A bar is mounted to the rear surface of the first planar flange and configured to hold the rear edges of the first parallel flanges in substantially the same plane as the rear surface of the first planar flange.
Abstract:
A kit containing components which can be assembled into a shutter panel includes a header, a footer, a plurality of brackets, a first stile, a second stile, a plurality of louvers. One embodiment also contains a jig to align the bracket with the header or footer for attachment. Each bracket is sized and configured to be connected to an end of the header or footer. The stiles each have a longitudinal channel which enables the stiles to be fitted over at least one of the brackets. The jig has a mouth sized to receive an end of the footer or header and a cavity adjacent the mouth such that a user of the jig can place one end of a bracket in the cavity and the other end of the header or footer in the mouth. The kit may be packaged in two packs. One pack contains a header, a footer and a plurality of brackets. The second pack contains mounting frame pieces, at least one first stile, at least one second stile, a plurality of louvers, louver strips, a tilt rod, screws and other hardware which can be assembled into a shutter panel having the desired dimensions. The header, footer, stiles and brackets are provided to a retailer in standard sizes. The retailer may then trim these components as required to create a shutter having the desired dimensions.
Abstract:
Light traps, and panels for light traps, are shown and described. In one example, a trap comprises a plurality of panels defining waveforms for at least a portion. The waveforms may be spaced a distance D apart to define a plurality of non-linear air-passages for allowing an airflow (AF) into or out of the poultry house at a velocity (V). The waveforms may include a plurality of light deflective walls (LDWs) for increasing the light reduction factor (RFL).
Abstract:
A solar window shade includes a frame for supporting louvers for shading at least one window of a building. Preferably, the frame is pivotally connected to the building above the window, and a frame drive system selectively pivots the frame upwardly or downwardly in accordance with the elevation of the sun. A louver drive system rotates the louvers within the frame to track east-to-west movements of the sun. The louvers are preferably provided as outer and inner louvers interlaced with each other, and such louvers nest with one another when the sun is hidden, or approaches from an acute angle, to maximize passage of indirect light rays to light the interior, while minimizing obstruction of the view through the window. The device is modular and is easily applied to aligned rows of windows and/or windows on multi-story buildings, with central control of the associated frame drive and louver drive systems.
Abstract:
A shutter assembly having a shutter with louvres, and a border frame for surrounding the shutter which is attachable to a building and having a plurality of frame side sections each formed of sections of extruded plastic, a plurality of hollow tubes, separated by thin walls, defined in the sections, a fastener channel formed integrally in the frame side sections for receiving fasteners for holding the shutter assembly in place, and, an extruded plastic removable cover plug channel having flexible side walls for fitting in the fastener channel and closing the channel and thereby concealing heads of the fasteners.
Abstract:
A modular louvered shutter includes first and second stiles and a center section assembled using a tongue and groove joint. The center section is a solid piece having a plurality of rails and louvers cut into the center section.
Abstract:
A shutter for covering for architectural openings having non-conventional geometries. The shutter may be used for covering a wide variety of shapes of openings, including arched, curved, circular, oval, triangular, hexagonal, square and rectangular geometries, as well as any combination of these geometries. A plurality of frame blocks form a frame of the shutter, each frame block having front and rear faces; a top surface; an outer surface; a vertical inner surface, and a horizontal bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface of a first block of the plurality of frame blocks rests on the top surface of a next lower second block of the plurality of frame blocks and extends inwardly beyond the vertical inner surface of the second block to define a cantilevered portion.
