A fan assembly includes a nozzle and a body on which the nozzle is mounted. The nozzle has a rear section having at least one first air inlet, at least one first air outlet, and a first interior passage for conveying air from the at least one first air inlet to the at least one first air outlet; and a front section having at least one second air inlet, at least one second air outlet, and a second interior passage for conveying air from the at least one second air inlet to the at least one second air outlet. A first air flow through the first interior passage and a second air flow through the second interior passage are each generated within the body. At least one of the temperature, humidity, and electrical charge of the second air flow is changed before it enters the second interior passage.

The present invention is concerned with a fluid actuated fluid extraction system, and in particular an airflow actuated gas extraction system which in use is located in an airflow such as a natural flow of wind, and which airflow actuates the system in order to extract fluid such as a gas from a remote location such as the interior of a building, the system comprising a hollow body having at least a pair of concentric annular baffles longitudinally spaced from one another to define an annular flow channel circumscribing the body between the pair of baffles into which an actuating fluid can flow from an exterior of the body, the body further having an intake to permit an exhaust fluid to enter the body longitudinally, wherein one or more of the baffles are profiled to generate a vortex within an upstream portion of the flow channel and to effect propagation of the vortex circumferentially around the channel by means of the coanda effect

An air diffuser for supplying air to a space, the diffuser having a central axis and comprising; a plurality of discharge elements arranged to guide an air stream towards the space, the plurality of discharge elements having respective edge regions that define a face of the diffuser; wherein a plurality of channels are located about the diffuser central axis, each channel being formed between adjacent pairs of discharge elements and configured to guide the air to the space. Wherein at least one of the discharge elements comprises a peripheral portion and a proximal portion relative to the central axis, and wherein the peripheral portion has a first air guide surface positioned at a first acute angle to the diffuser face, and the proximal portion has a second air guide surface positioned at a second acute angle to the diffuser face, the second angle being different to the first.

An air conditioner (AC) indoor unit includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet; a heat exchanger arranged inside the housing; a blower fan for sucking in air at the inlet to be subject to heat exchange with the heat exchanger, and discharging the heat-exchanged air out of the outlet; and an air flow control device for controlling an air flow discharged from the outlet by sucking in air around the outlet. The AC indoor unit may control the direction of a discharged air flow without a conventional blade structure, thereby increasing an amount of discharged air, reducing circulation noise, and enabling design differentiation.

In an air conditioner, a drain extraction unit and a refrigerant pipe connecting unit may be disposed in a blocking region in which a discharge port is not provided so that a size of the discharge port may be secured and the discharge port may be uniformly disposed, thereby generating uniform airflow in a room. In a lower housing formed in a circular shape, some of components inside an indoor unit of the air conditioner may be disposed in a protrusion portion that protrudes from the circular housing, thereby facilitating the installation of the air conditioner. A condensate water collecting space disposed outside the housing may be provided in a drain tray, thereby efficiently preventing a leakage due to condensate water generated outside the housing. The housing, the drain tray, and the cover member of the air conditioner may be coupled by a coupling member coupled outside.

An air conditioner according to an aspect of the present invention includes a housing arranged to be mounted on or embedded in a ceiling, a cover panel coupled to a lower portion of the housing, the cover panel including an inlet and an outlet, a blower fan configured to draw in air into the housing through the inlet and discharge air out of the housing through the outlet and a blade configured to open and close the outlet, the blade including a plurality of through holes to control the air discharged out of the housing through the outlet while the blade closes the outlet. With this structure, the air conditioner can discharge air in various ways by varying the wind direction, the wind speed, and the air amount of the discharged air.

An air circulator includes a housing having a first inlet and a first outlet, an oblique-flow fan disposed in the housing, and a motor rotating the oblique-flow fan. An outer wall of the housing includes a first outer wall extending in a front-rear direction and a second outer wall having the first inlet and extending from an edge of the first inlet towards the first outer wall to be enlarged in a radially outward direction. An outer surface of the second outer wall comprises a first surface that extends towards the first outer wall to be rounded outwards, and forms a surface continuous with an outer surface of the first outer wall, thus guiding air flowing along an outside of the first inlet so that the air flows forwards along the outer surface of the first outer wall.

Disclosed is a ceiling type air conditioner that can implement a horizontal air flow to provide an indirect wind to a user with a simple structure. To this end, the ceiling type air conditioner according to the present disclosure includes an inner case in which a blower and a heat exchanger are built-in, and a blow passage for guiding air passed through the heat exchanger downward is formed; an inner flow path body which is disposed below the inner case and has a suction flow path for sucking air into the inner case so as to communicate vertically; and an outer flow path body which is spaced outward from the inner flow path body and disposed below the inner case, and forms a discharge flow path, between the inner flow path body, communicating with the blow passage; wherein an outer circumferential surface of the inner flow path body comprises a first concave portion formed to be concave, a first horizontal portion extended horizontally outwardly from a lower end of the first concave portion, and a vertical portion extended vertically downwardly from an outer end of the first horizontal portion.

A system for supplying air under the ceiling of a room comprising a pair of air inlet openings arranged side by side and configured to supply a pair of air streams into the room along the ceiling. The pair of air inlet openings are controllable to assume a first configuration where the supplied pair of air streams have first air stream directions spanning a first span angle and form a first angle with the ceiling, and the pair of air streams are substantially distinct air streams; and a second configuration where the supplied pair of air streams have second air stream directions spanning a second span angle smaller than the first span angle and form a second angle with the ceiling and are directed lower than in the first configuration, and the pair of air streams combine to form a combined air stream.
