AIRBORNE PATHOGEN EXTRACTION SYSTEM
An airborne pathogen extraction system that provides for continuous airborne pathogen particle extraction from a specifically targeted area in a room or a specifically targeted area proximate to a user. The pathogenic particles are filtered and/or disinfected before the air is returned proximate to the originating location, or are directed an area away from the user(s). The airborne pathogen extraction systems and methods lower the chances of contagion or infection from airborne pathogens, such as viruses.
ADAPTIVE FRAGRANCE DISPENSER
A dispensing device comprising a body with an attachment mechanism configured to connect to a subject, a reservoir disposed inside the body, a removable selected fragrance disposed inside the reservoir, a dispenser coupled to the reservoir, a controller coupled to the dispenser and configured to dispense the selected fragrance, and a plurality of sensors on the body configured to provide data streams to a smart device.
DISINFECTING SANITARY SYSTEM FOR INACTIVATING AIRBORNE PATHOGENS WITHIN A SANITARY DEVICE
A new disinfecting sanitary system utilizing an UV-C LED irradiation source is developed for disinfection of pathogens generated by toilet flushing. The disinfecting sanitary system includes a plurality of disinfection devices mounted on a hollow member of the sanitary device, and each of the disinfection devices is configured to emit a beam for disinfection; a control circuit coupled to the plurality of disinfection devices. Each of the plurality of disinfection devices including an ultraviolet light (UV) radiation apparatus configured to project UV radiation towards a target area for disinfection, and the control circuit controls the plurality of disinfection devices to project the UV radiation.
Compression-Based Portable Air Treatment Systems and Methods
A portable air treatment system configured to be carried by an individual and deliver air, via a mask, to the individual, is provided. The system includes an air inlet allowing atmospheric air to enter at an air flow rate ranging between 2 liters/min to 10 liters/min, an air compression system connected with the air inlet for compressing the incoming air, thereby increasing the temperature of the air to a minimum temperature of 170° C., a hot air chamber connected with the air compression system for receiving the heated air from the air compression system and retaining the heated air for a period of 30-100 milliseconds, an air decompression system connected with the heated air chamber for expanding the heated air thereby decreasing the temperature of the heated air to a temperature ranging between 14° C. to 45° C., and an air outlet connected with the air expansion system for directing the cooled air to the individual via the mask.
Bi-directional gender changing rotary connection for luminaire
An elongated lighting module having an asymmetric illumination source formed from at least two rows of light emitting diodes (LEDs) that extend along the long axis of the module and are independently controllable. The illumination source is rectangular and oriented so that the rows of LEDs extend along the long axis of the module. The module has couplings at each end that allow additional modules to be interconnected to each other and to a central mount, thereby avoiding the need for a support pole having cross-arms. The lighting modules are powered via a wiring harness that extends down a support pole to a power converter stack having LED drivers to control the modules.
VEHICLE INTERIOR COMPONENT
A component for a vehicle interior configured to dispense scent in a vehicle interior is disclosed. The component may comprise a scent-dispensing apparatus comprising a module configured for at least one scent-dispensing cartridge (removable/replaceable) containing scent media. An actuator may be configured to operate the module in a bypass mode or for selection/actuation of a cartridge. A selected cartridge may be actuated from a sealed state to prevent airflow through scent media to an unsealed state to allow airflow across/through scent media and into the vehicle interior. The actuator may comprise a mechanism (e.g. slider, cam mechanism); each cartridge may comprise a valve mechanism actuated by the actuator; each mechanism may comprise a spring. The module may comprise a fan to provide airflow. The component may provide a user interface. The component may comprise a console, overhead console, floor console, center console, etc.
ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT SHIELD SYSTEM
An ultraviolet (UV) light shield system includes multiple UV lamps mounted within an internal cabin of a vehicle. The UV lamps are positioned to emit UV light in fields of illumination that extend along sides of passenger seats disposed within the internal cabin. Two adjacent fields of illumination are spaced apart to define a protection zone for a passenger sitting on one of the passenger seats.
SPRAY MECHANISM FOR SANITIZING AN AIRCRAFT
A sanitizing system includes a dispensing unit having a fluid storage and a compressed air generator. The fluid storage stores one or more disinfecting fluids or other sanitizing agents. The sanitizing system has an interconnect configured as an adapter that defines a conduit or passageway in an airflow path between a low pressure ground air supply and a connection port on an aircraft. The dispensing unit is configured to dispense the one or more disinfecting fluids or other sanitizing agents into the airflow path via the interconnect.
DRY FOGGING SYSTEM
A dry fogging system includes a control device including a control device inlet configured to couple to a gas source, a first control device outlet, and a second control device outlet configured to couple to a first tank. The dry fogging system further includes a first spray device including a first spray device inlet configured to couple to the first tank, a second spray device inlet configured to couple to the first control device outlet, and a spray device outlet configured to provide dry fogging.
Diffuser with different temperature response
A diffuser includes an adjustable heater having a temperature control knob providing indicia coordinated with like indicia on packets of vaporizable materials of different tendencies to vaporize. By manipulating the temperature control knob to the indicia corresponding to the indicia on the packet, a suitable quantity of energy is delivered to the diffuser resulting in suitable vaporization. One indicia is color coded packets and similarly color coded markings adjacent the temperature control knob.
