An article of manufacture for providing an O.sub.2 Tree for removing CO.sub.2 gas from the atmosphere according to the present invention is disclosed.

A handheld air purifier may include a suction body provided with a fan to suction air and a filter to filter foreign matter from the sucked air, a handle extending from the suction body, and an agitator provided in the suction body to loosen or scatter dust from a garment. The handheld air purifier may be configured to be attached to and detached from a main air purifier, and the main air purifier may suction dust off the handheld air purifier and sterilize the handheld air purifier when the handheld air purifier is mounted on the main air purifier. The agitator of the handheld air purifier may have a striking member exposed through a lower surface of the suction body, and may move out of and into the suction body to strike the garment so that the dust may be loosened and suctioned into the suction body and filtered by the filter.

In an example, a particulate filter includes a porous filter substrate including a first surface and a second surface. The porous filter substrate is configured to filter gas flowing through the porous filter substrate between the first surface and the second surface. A plurality of conductors are coupled to the porous filter substrate. The plurality of conductors are approximately parallel to each other along the porous filter substrate. The particulate filter also includes a plurality of input nodes in signal communication with the plurality of conductors and configured to receive a voltage signal from an input signal source. The plurality of conductors are configured to generate an electric field on at least one of the first surface or the second surface of the porous filter substrate in response to the plurality of input nodes receiving the voltage signal from the input signal source.

This invention is a smart face mask for air filtration with a transparent mouth-covering portion, an active air filtration system which filters both air inflow and air outflow, an environmental or biometric sensor, and a smart control mechanism wherein the operation of the active air filtration system is automatically adjusted based on analysis of data from the sensor.

Disclosed is an air cleaner, more specifically, an air cleaner including a blower that inhales air from the outside, and 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. An angle formed between a top surface of the flow adjusting device and a top surface of the blower may increase or decrease based on operations of the plurality of links, so that the state of the flow adjusting device may be changed from an orientation in which the top surface of the flow adjusting device is horizontal with the top surface of the blower to an orientation in which the top surface of the flow adjusting device is perpendicular to the top surface of the blower.

In certain exemplary embodiments, an air purifier comprises a housing defining an enclosure and having an air entrance and an air exit; a particulate filter; a NCCO filter material configured to adsorb and decompose at least one gaseous pollutant; an AOG configured to generate at least one oxidant; an oxidant remover configured to remove at least one oxidant; a fan unit configured to generate airflow from the air entrance to the air exit; wherein the particulate filter, the NCCO filter material, the AOG, the oxidant remover and the fan unit are positioned within the enclosure such that during operation, a flow of air passes from the air entrance to the air exit through the particulate filter and the NCCO filter material along a direction of the flow of air. In certain embodiments, the air purifier may ensure safety to users while efficiency in removing contaminants can be greatly improved.

A dust collector including a body with an intake portion and an exhaust portion includes a filter, a filter support that supports the filter, a motor case protruding from an inner surface of the body, and a vibration motor accommodated in the motor case. The body accommodates the filter support. A portion on the tip side of the motor case is at a position where it is allowed to come into contact with the filter support when the vibration motor is driven.

An air conditioner includes: an air blower configured to take air from an inlet, and to blow the air from an outlet; a filter configured to purify the air; a first chamber and a second chamber taking the air purified by the filter; a humidification filter provided in the second chamber, and humidifying the air taken into the second chamber; and a divider opening and closing an opening that provides communication between the first chamber and the second chamber, and adjusting a volume of the air taken from the first chamber into the second chamber. The air taken from the first chamber into the second chamber and/or the air taken into the second chamber is blown from the outlet.

A back-blowing unblocking device for the dustproof screen of the dryer, a dustproof equipment, and a dryer are provided. The back-blowing unblocking device for the dustproof screen of the dryer utilizes a closed compartment space of the dryer. The back-blowing unblocking device for the dustproof screen of the dryer includes a high-pressure air main pipe, a high-pressure air horizontal pipe, high-pressure air branch pipes, a shunt connecting pipe, and back-blowing fan-shaped nozzles. A length of each high-pressure air branch pipe is equal to a length of an A-shaped dustproof screen. Both ends of the each high-pressure air branch pipe are closed and an upper center opening is welded to the shunt connecting pipe. Both sides of the each high-pressure air branch pipe are densely arranged with the back-blowing fan-shaped nozzles.

Disclosed are an air intake mechanism and a negative pressure system. The air intake mechanism includes a first air intake end, a first air outlet end, and a first passage provided between the first air intake end and the first air outlet end, a first air driving unit is provided on the first passage, a first filter assembly is provided between the first air intake end and the first air driving unit, and a second filter assembly is provided between the first air outlet end and the first air driving unit.
