US Patent:

55581587, Sep 24, 1996

Filed:

Feb 8, 1995

Appl. No.:

8/385577

Inventors:

Robert L. Elmore - Fort Lauderdale FL

International Classification:

F28F 1312
F28F 1902

US Classification:

165122

Abstract:

Interior surfaces of an air handler unit are coated with a dense, non-porous material, which discourages and prohibits growth of mold, spores, algae, bacteria, germs, viruses and other organisms and microorganisms and allergens. Air is drawn into the air handler unit through a return duct and one or more filters, through a heat exchanger and into a blower within the air handler unit. The blower draws and discharges air through highly reflective, interiorly coated chambers, where the air is bathed with direct and reflected ultraviolet light. The clean, conditioned air is then delivered through main distribution and supply ducts.

US Classification:

Abstract:

The present invention is a portable filter fan. A highly efficient and inexpensive air filtering device is made from a portable box fan with a pleated sheet o micron particle filter installed externally in channels on the inlet side of the fan housing. Activated charcoal used for removing odors and volatile organic compounds from the air is prevented from egress by a second similar filter mounted externally in channels on the outlet side of the fan housing. A low-cost fan filter sitting at floor level circulates the air and cleans the air more efficiently than many other filters placed in ceiling or attic areas. Gravity pulls the floating particles in the air downward toward the floor, and the new portable air filtering box fan draws and holds the particles on the filter.
