BLOWER AND AIR-CONDITIONING INDOOR UNIT
A suction port and a blow-out port are formed in a casing. A fan is provided in the casing. Under a test condition that a blower is provided in such a way that a reference position of the blow-out port is a position that is separated by 2000 mm upward from a floor, an airflow adjusting mechanism adjusts, in a wide mode, a flow of air blown out from the blow-out port so that an average airflow speed in a first range and an average airflow speed in a second range are approximately equal to each other and so that a ratio of an average airflow speed in a third range to the average airflow speed in the first range is less than 1.5.

Compressor with cooled air passage and liquid coolant passage in axial heat exchanger arrangement
A compressor device includes a motor cooling system that provides a first flow of a first fluid through a housing for cooling a motor. The motor cooling system includes a first fluid flow section at a first axial position. The first fluid flow section extends in a downstream direction radially with respect to the axis of rotation. Also, the device includes a bearing cooling system that provides a second flow of a second fluid through the housing for cooling the bearing. The bearing cooling system includes a second flow section at a second axial position that is spaced apart axially from the first axial position. The second flow section extends in a downstream direction radially with respect to the axis of rotation. The first flow section and the second flow section are disposed in a heat exchanger arrangement configured to transfer heat between the second fluid and the first fluid.

Air circulator with vein control system
The present invention is related in general to air circulators, and in particular, to an air circulator with a vein control system to direct and adjust airflow patterns. According to an exemplary embodiment, the present invention provides adjustable, vertical veins that are attached to the outlet of a tower fan. According to a preferred embodiment, the veins are pivotally mounted in such a way that by turning a knob, the veins can either be directed into a focused air-flow pattern or adjusted to a divergent air-flow pattern, or at any setting in between.

MOBILE CLIMATE CONTROL ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF USE
A mobile climate control assembly that includes a portable housing with a first fan blower-wheel assembly and a second fan blower assembly each respectively having a wheel blade member, partially surrounded by an air deflector wall, disposed within a housing cavity and operably configured to rotate 360° around an axis of rotation parallel and non-co-planar with respect to one another. The assembly also includes a fan motor operably coupled to the wheel blade members and an electronic controller electronically and communicatively coupled to the fan motor and operably configured to independently and selectively control rotation of the wheel member of each of the first and second fan blower-wheel assemblies to generate an ambient air velocity gradient along at least an approximate 90° angular traverse path from the front face and without rotation of the portable housing.
