Disclosed are techniques relating to an improved air quality device that can provide personalized comfort and improved air quality elements to occupants of a common space. The improved air quality device can comprise a plurality of individually adjustable directional outlets. The state of these individually adjustable directional outlets can be updated to individually satisfy comfort levels of various occupants at different locations within the common space, which can be determined based on inputs from a control device (e.g., thermostat), a sensor (e.g., occupancy sensor), and so forth. The improved air quality device can further comprise an ultraviolet light device that can reduce pathogens in the common space. The state of the ultraviolet light device (e.g., on/off, duration of on/off, a position/location, and so on) can be a function of the state of the state of the outlets.

An air guide for a ceiling-type air conditioner is applied to the ceiling-type air conditioner comprising: an indoor unit having a heat exchanger and a blower embedded therein, and having a plurality of blowing passages for discharging, to the outside, air which has passed through the heat exchanger; a plurality of inlets for receiving the air discharged through the plurality of blowing passages; and a discharge panel having an inner space, of which at least a portion communicates with the plurality of inlets, and a ring or arc-shaped opening for discharging, into a room, air which has flowed into the inner space. The air guide includes: at least two partition parts formed in parallel to the radial direction of the opening, and dividing the inner space in the circumferential direction; and a curved part connecting the at least two partition parts, and formed in an arc shape, and is detachably inserted into the inside of the opening from the outside of the opening.

Apparatus and method for ventilating a building structure, such as a residence. In some embodiments, a ventilation system includes a damper assembly which extends through an interior substrate (e.g., an interior wall) of the structure and an exhaust assembly which extends through an exterior substrate (e.g., an exterior wall of the structure and which is in communication with the damper assembly via a control circuit. The interior wall separates a conditioned space and an unconditioned space. The exhaust assembly is initially activated to vent exhaust air from the unconditioned space while a door of the damper assembly remains closed. The door is subsequently opened responsive to a measured environmental parameter, such as a differential pressure between the conditioned and unconditioned spaces, to generate a combined airflow that passes from the conditioned space to the unconditioned space and then to the exterior of the structure.

A first duct control apparatus is an apparatus that controls a motor that controls opening and closing of a duct opening and closing device provided in a duct for sending air from an air conditioner to a room, and includes: a power supply board that receives commercial power; a motor board that controls the motor based on the commercial power received by the power supply board; and a control board that controls the motor board based on the commercial power received by the power supply board. The motor board performs, for the motor, control of the opening and closing of the duct opening and closing device and control for adjusting a degree of opening of the duct opening and closing device. The power supply board, the motor board, and the control board are provided in a single unit.

The present embodiment may comprise: a housing that have a suction port, a space formed therein, and a discharge port formed in an upper portion thereof; a purification unit and a blowing unit accommodated in the space; a discharge guide that is disposed in an upper portion of the housing and discharges blown air to the discharge port; a tilting mechanism that is connected to the discharge guide to tilt the discharge guide; and a lifting and lowering mechanism that lifts and lowers the tilting mechanism.

Disclosed is an air cleaner, more specifically, an air cleaner including a blower that inhales air from the outside, filters the inhaled air, and discharges the filtered air, a flow adjusting device disposed on the blower to inhale the air discharged from the blower, adjust a discharge direction of the inhaled air, and discharge the air, and a guide member disposed below the flow adjusting device to change a state of the flow adjusting device. The guide member may include a plurality of gears arranged inside the guide member to be rotatable, some of the plurality of gears may be connected to each other to be rotatable in engagement with each other, and the flow adjusting device may change the discharge direction of the air by rotations of the plurality of gears of the guide member.

A ceiling type air purifier including a housing having an opening on a lower side; a filter on one side of the opening and fixed to the housing; a fan configured to circulate air having passed through the filter; a convergent space formed in the housing and configured to receive air circulated by the fan; and a discharge assembly including a discharge plate formed to match a lower portion of the convergent space, a discharge blade rotatably coupled with the discharge plate so as to be rotatable to control a moving direction of air discharged from the convergent space, and a rotation shaft at one end of the discharge assembly. The discharge assembly may be coupled with the housing to be rotatable on the rotation shaft so as to rotate to open the convergent space to allow access to the convergent space, and to rotate to close the convergent space.

The present disclosure relates to an indoor unit of an air conditioner, the indoor unit including: a case having an outlet elongated in one direction; a first vane disposed at the outlet; a second vane disposed at the outlet at a position behind the first vane; a drive motor disposed on one side of the outlet and configured to provide a driving force to at least one of the first vane or the second vane; a drive link coupled to a shaft of the drive motor, and having a first end connected to the first vane and a second end connected to the second vane; and a first vane link having a first end connected to the case and a second end connected to an end portion in a longitudinal direction of the first vane, wherein the first vane has a first curvature formed on a surface perpendicular to an air discharge direction and formed in the longitudinal direction, such that the outlet may be tightly closed in response to sagging of a central part of the first vane due to self-weight in a dual vane structure, and in response to torsion that occurs due to a third vane link provided in the dual vane structure.

An air conditioner including: a housing including a cylinder portion, an inlet, and an outlet formed in a lower portion of the cylinder portion and being in a shape of an arc; a heat exchanger positioned inside the cylinder portion and being in a shape of an arc; and a plurality of blades configured to selectively open or block the outlet, wherein the plurality of blades are arranged along a circumferential direction of the outlet and configured to move back and forth in a radial direction of the outlet to open or block the outlet, and each of the plurality of blades includes a plurality of holes configured to enable, upon blocking of the outlet by the blade, air entered the inlet to be discharged to outside of the housing through the blade.
