MODULAR FAN ASSEMBLY WITH ARTICULATING NOZZLE

An air treatment system is disclosed that includes a modular configuration whereby a fan module, filter module, and humidifier module may couple together to provide a plurality of air treatment solutions. In more detail, the modules can stack end-to-end in a vertical configuration. The modules may electrically couple to each other via a common electrical bus and enable a controller disposed in the fan module (or other module) to control fan flow rates, direction, and humidity. The fan module can include an articulating nozzle capable of directing airflow in virtually any direction and angle about an environment. The fan module can further include an inlet arrangement that can selectively restrict external air from entering the fan module housing when the fan module is fluidly coupled to the filter module. Thus, the fan module may generate air flow from exclusively filtered air to minimize or otherwise reduce bacterial/mold growth within the fan module housing.

Apparatus for hair cooling and dehumidification

A hair cooling apparatus includes a wearable headgear. The wearable headgear includes a flexible hose, securely positioned in a zigzag pattern within an interior cavity of the wearable headgear. The flexible hose is configured to circulate air within the interior cavity via a plurality of openings via a connector using a blower unit. The blower unit is securely positioned in a portable carrier and powered using one or more batteries. The blower unit is configured to supply air within the interior cavity of the wearable headgear via the flexible hose. The apparatus produces cooling to the user's hair and protects from the moisture for preserving an opted hairstyle of the user without affecting the lifestyle. The wearable headgear further comprises a moisture absorbing material, configured to effectively absorb the sweat around the user's brow, ear portions, and the neck portion.

Head-mounted heat dissipation device

A head-mounted heat dissipation device includes a fan assembly and a wearing assembly. The wearing assembly is connected to the fan assembly to fix the fan assembly onto a head of a user. The fan assembly includes a casing and fans arranged in the casing. Air inlets and air outlets are defined in the casing. The air outlets are located on an inner side of the bottom surface of the casing, so that the air from the air outlets can be blown to the user's face. In addition, air guide strips are arranged side by side on a side of the air outlet within the casing for concealing the operation of the fans.

This invention relates to attachable personal cooling fans specifically designed to provide several hours of cooling for the user. These units were originally designed for baseball/softball plate umpires for hot weather conditions, however, they could be adapted for other uses. The units are portable and lightweight and can be attached to any facemask.

System for Treating Air
20220241451 · 2022-08-04 ·

A system for treating air includes a first vent and second vent and an air passage in fluid communication between the first and second vents. Air is drawn into the first vent, moved through the air passage, and expelled from the second vent. The air passage includes an ultraviolet-C (“UV-C”) chamber, comprising a UV-C source, and a filter located after the UV-C chamber in the air passage and exposed to the UV-C source. Air moved through the air passage is treated by the UV-C source and then the filter. Such system may be used to treat air containing coronavirus particles.

Localized air filtration system

An air purification unit is provided for individuals seated at a table that has a unit body adapted to be mounted at a mounting height at or above the approximate head height of individuals seated at the table, and in a position between the individuals. A motorized fan system is provided within the unit body that is configured to draw air from at least one inlet proximate the bottom of the unit body. A filter is positioned in communication with the inlet and the fan system for filtering air drawn through the inlet. The unit body has at least two ducted outlets disposed radially or axially for discharging filtered air toward the individuals, while the unit prevents cross-flow of breath air between the individuals.
