A vent cover for an air duct having (a) a top surface with an aperture, (b) an actuating member extending through the aperture and operably connected to a magnet selectively engageable with the air duct, and (c) a bias means for urging the magnet towards the air duct, the actuating member movable between a securing position and a releasing position, wherein in the securing position the bias means urges the magnet towards the air duct, and in the releasing position the actuating member moves the magnet away from the air duct to allow the vent cover to be removed from the air duct.

An air register can control airflow direction and intensity. The air register includes an attachment mechanism that is configured to attach to a surface. The air register further includes a plurality of diffuser discs attached to the attachment mechanism and configured so that they may be manually moved from a closed configuration to an open configuration. The diffuser discs include a plurality of apertures that allow air to flow therethrough. In the closed configuration, the diffuser discs are arranged to cover the apertures so that air cannot flow therethrough. In the open configuration, the plurality of diffuser discs are spaced apart to allow air to flow through the apertures. Further, the diffuser discs can be tilted to control airflow direction.

An inflow nozzle for an intake opening of a device for downward extraction of cooking vapours has a supporting structure and a plurality of pin-like elements arranged on the supporting structure.

A blow-out unit disposed at a blow-out port on an air flow path and configured to blow out air supplied through the air flow path, toward the room, includes: a first member disposed in the blow-out port and including a plate member having a first side and configured to turn around a rotating shaft disposed away from the first side such that the first side moves away from the blow-out port toward the air flow path; and a second member disposed in the blow-out port at a different position from the plate member and extending along the first side of the plate member. The plate member and the second member change a direction of air to be blown out toward the blow-out port through the air flow path from a first air flow direction to a second air flow direction.

A dynamic register system automatically adjusts venting panels attached to an air vent in order to evenly disperse the air supplied by the vent in a room. The dynamic register system includes a fan internally mounted within the air vent. The air supplied by the air vent causes the fan to turn providing the system with mechanical energy. The fan is then attached to a gear system which in turn is attached to an adapter. The gear system then translates the rotational mechanical energy of the fan into an oscillating motion for the adapter. The adapter is then mounted to an axle which engages with the venting panels attached to the vent. As the adapter oscillates the axle is adjusted which in turn adjusts the venting panels periodically to evenly distribute air.

A ventilator for exhausting gas from an exhaust port, by utilizing wind or relative wind around and through the ventilator to create a reduced pressure zone at an open exhaust port. Tapered intermediate portions extend from the opposite ends of a centrally located throat portion within a body of the ventilator to a pair of opposite mouths through which gas can flow out through the ventilator from the exhaust port. Each mouth of the ventilator has an opening with an area significantly larger than the area of a flow path within the throat portion. The throat portion may be of constant internal cross-sectional area over its entire length.

A vent apparatus comprises a mount with air flow opening for mounting to a wall, a housing covering the mount, and a door pivoted to fall by gravity to a closed position but being movable to an open position when air flows from the air outflow passageway. The housing forms a downwardly and outwardly open chute extending well below a bottom of the mount and door, thus discouraging birds from approaching the air flow opening. The door and mount include bottom flanges that overlap when the door is in the closed position, further discouraging bird entry. The mount, housing and door are all metal with stiffening bends that are relatively simple construction, making assembly tow cost and providing a reliable function. The housing does not include large horizontal surfaces, thus discouraging birds and animals from building a nest in or on the housing.

An air circulator includes a blower unit that is provided with an airflow opening on a front side of the blower unit. A grill is provided in the airflow opening, and is provided with airflow guide blades in a spiral manner Each of the airflow guide blades is convex toward an airflow direction between its inner end portion and its outer end portion to form the grill three-dimensionally. The grill further includes a circular ring that intersects with the airflow guide blades.

A grille assembly for an air handling unit is provided. The grille assembly includes a plurality of first wires aligned in a first plane perpendicular to a direction of flow of air and a plurality of second wires aligned in a second plane perpendicular to the direction of flow of air. The plurality of first wires and the plurality of second wires together form a staggered structure to at least partly enclose an air passage opening of the air handling unit. The second plane is parallel to the first plane and separated by an offset distance along a third plane parallel to the direction of flow of air.

An air conditioner including a housing; a heat exchanger in the housing; an outlet; a blower to discharge air forward toward the outlet, the air having exchanged heat with the heat exchanger; and a guide panel in front of the blower, and including an inner panel coupled with the outer panel, and a suck-in flow path formed by the inner panel and the outer panel, wherein the guide panel forms the outlet with the housing to release a first portion of the air discharged by the blower outside of the housing, and the suck-in flow path sucks in a second portion of the air discharged by the blower so as to guide the first portion of the air to flow outside of the housing in a direction different than when the second portion of the air is not sucked into the suck-in flow path.
