20210394107 · 2021-12-23 · ·

The present invention provides a smart air filter blockage detection and alert communication system for use with filters in air circulation systems such as HVAC, vehicles, server systems, and dryers. The system attached to the frame of a filter comprises a light source, a light sensor, two actuators and a control unit. The control unit based on a stored program or an external command activates the actuators to place the source and the sensor devices attached to the two arms of the actuators on the two sides of the filter membrane. The sensor measures the light intensity transmitted through the filter. The control unit upon receiving the intensity data determines the filter blockage level and communicates alert to the user when the blockage exceeds a predetermined value. The system uses a 4G or a 5G IoT network capability for data collection and communication with servers and user devices.

DEVICE FOR DECONTAMINATING A REGION AND VERIFYING DECONTAMINATION OF THE REGION

A self contained, 1 V to 550 V powered UVC device used to sterilize spaces like vehicle cabins or indoor rooms or spaces, while providing the ability to monitor both pre and post sterilization. While operating, the device would collect, on suitable gathering/testing media, both air that has been sterilized, and unsterilized air that passes through the media, allowing the media to be tested for the presence of both active pathogens that have not yet been killed from the device, as well as killed pathogens in the sterilized area. The UVC and media components may be integrated into one unit, or be powered and used both in combination, or as separate devices performing the sterilization and the sampling media. At the termination of UVC sterilization, additional different media has the now sterilized cabin or room air circulated through it, and with further media testing and evaluation, the efficiency/effectiveness of the sterilization process can be audited, and system operators can be advised.
