Seating terraces constructed from SPS materials are used to provide integrated HVAC to the seating areas of stadia, arena bowls and similar structures. Portions of the terraces are enclosed from their backsides to provide large ducts or plenums that run beneath the seating terraces where openings into the plenum located between the seats at regular intervals deliver conditioned air to the seating areas. A large header duct runs around the stadium bowl above the top row of seats and delivers air to plenums that run beneath and are integral with the stadium stairways. The seating terrace ducts receive their air supply from the stairway plenums.

A portable inflatable golf studio including an arcuate shaped roof panel, first and second side panels, a floor panel, a front panel, a back panel, a projector screen, a projector, and a tracking system. The first and second side panels are positioned parallel from one another and are attached to the arcuate shaped roof panel, wherein one of the first and second side panels defines a cavity configured to receive a television monitor. The floor panel configured to connect the first and second side panels to one another. The front panel removable attached to the arcuate shaped roof panel and the first and second side panels. The back panel positioned parallel to the front panel and attached to the arcuate shaped roof panel and the first and second side panels. Each panel includes one or more of inflatable sections.

An atmosphere adjustment system includes a steam supply unit and a control unit. The steam supply unit has: a layered structure including a first lava sand layer, a mineral layer, a second lava sand layer and a lava plate, which are stacked in this order from the bottom; a heater arranged under the first lava sand layer; and a water supply pipe arranged between the first lava sand layer and the mineral layer. The control unit is able to adjust the temperature of the second lava sand layer at 60 C. or higher and 80 C. or lower by controlling at least one of the amount of water discharged through the water supply pipe or the temperature of the heater.

The present invention relates generally to a vault system for housing an ice track and, more particularly to a vault system that may provide an ice surface over the track of an indoor or outdoor ice arena and cover the track with a vault structure to reduce maintenance costs while enabling efficient operation regardless of season. For this, there is provided a vault system for housing an ice track in an arena that includes a track, wherein the track comprises cooling piping for forming an ice surface, and an isolation membrane for providing a skating space is installed over the track.

Systems, methods, and apparatuses disclosed herein can be implemented as a closed loop feedback system to provide various atmospheric effects. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can regulate these atmospheric effects based on one or more environmental measurements as part of the closed loop feedback system. As part of the closed loop feedback system, these systems, methods, and apparatuses can detect, or measure, one or more physical properties, such as temperature, atmospheric pressure, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, precipitation amount, scent, location, altitude, and/or azimuth to provide some examples. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can compare the one or more physical properties with one or more performance targets of the atmospheric effects and can regulate the atmospheric effects to cause the one or more physical properties to satisfy the one or more performance targets of the atmospheric effects.

An apparatus captures and evacuates air from an area above a body of liquid, particularly a swimming pool. The apparatus exhausts the contaminants and water vapor to an area outside of an enclosure housing the swimming pool. The invention comprises an assembly mounted to a wall adjacent the body of liquid. The assembly is comprised of a top section, opposing side sections connected by the top section, and at least one flange extending from an edge of at least one side section. The wall-mounted and bench assembly may be formed integrally, but also may be formed from two or more pieces.

A system for controlling ambient temperatures of exposed structures using phase change materials and/or tempered liquid delivery systems. Phase change materials may be fabricated to hold the surrounding temperature at a desired temperature, such as 70 degrees Fahrenheit/21 degrees Celsius. As the heat load rises above this desired temperature, the heat is absorbed into the phase change material until that material has completely transitioned through its phase change, after which it will no longer absorb heat load. As the temperature then cools off at night, the heat is released from the phase change material, and the material changes back into its original phase. Phase change material may be placed within or on the exterior of stadium chairs. A liquid piping system may also be used to provide ambient heat control, including liquid piping for piping temperature-controlled liquid throughout the stadium while preventing condensation.
