An assembly for filtering toilet bowl odors including a first housing respectively disposed in spaced relation to and in fluid communication with the toilet bowl. A conduit connects interiors of the first and second housings in fluid communication with one another. A fan assembly is mounted within said first housing in fluid communicating relation with second housing, via the conduit, and is disposed and structured to define a path of fluid flow extending from an inlet of said second housing, through said conduit and a filter assembly, disposed in the first housing and/or second housing, to the exterior of said first housing, concurrent to activation of the fan assembly.

Disclosed herein is an air cleaner disposed in an indoor space. An air cleaner according to an embodiment includes a blowing device including a suction port and a discharge port, a fan motor configured to generate an air flow, a purifying unit installed inside the blowing device to purify air, a driving portion configured to move the air cleaner, a communication unit configured to communicate with a moving agent moving in the indoor space, and a processor configured to receive status information including at least one of air quality information and dust occurrence information collected by the moving agent, determine a specific zone in which air purification is to be performed using the status information collected by the moving agent, and perform air purification in the specific zone.

A road vehicle with a vehicle frame and a rear axle connected to the vehicle frame is provided with an ambient air purification device with filter elements for removing dust, particulate matter, and gases from ambient air. The ambient air purification device is arranged transverse to a longitudinal vehicle axis in an exterior region of the road vehicle at a vehicle rear of the road vehicle in an underfloor region such that at least the filter elements are arranged behind the rear axle of the road vehicle in a travel direction of the road vehicle. The ambient air purification device is received in an installation space of the vehicle frame. The ambient air purification device is flowed through in longitudinal vehicle direction. A free outflow zone of the ambient air purification device is arranged, in travel direction of the road vehicle, behind the ambient air purification device.

An air purifier includes a filter, a fan to suction air through the filter, a first case configured to cover the filter and the fan, and a second case overlapping with the first case. The first and second cases may be moveable in a vertical direction such that the second case may be raised to lengthen the air purifier and the first case may be raised to expose the filter for replacement. The second case may be provided outside of the first case and have a side discharge grill and a top discharge grill, which may each be selectively opened and closed.

An air purifying system includes first, second, and third air purifiers controlled independently and a docking station having first, second, and third supports configured to support and charge the first, second, and third air purifiers. The docking station has a vertical backbone, and the first, second, and third supports horizontally extend from the backbone. At least the second and third air purifiers are configured to be separated from the docking station and include handles to assist a user in transporting the second and third air purifiers to separate rooms or indoor spaces.

An incubator for cell and tissue culture under controlled atmospheric conditions has a primary air flow control device that forms a primary, preferably laminar flow, air veil across an opening that allows access to the cells or tissue cultures disposed within the incubator. Preferably, most if not all of the air in the primary (laminar flow) air veil is recirculated, and a secondary air flow control device is used that forms a secondary, preferably laminar flow, air veil between the primary (laminar flow) air veil and a user of the incubator.

An air purifier including a fan having a plurality of fan speeds; a filter, wherein the fan draws air through the filter; a user interface in communication with a control system; wherein upon activation of the control system, the control system identifies an initial air quality index (AQI) based upon a geographic location of the air purifier, a room size based upon the type of room in which the air purifier is placed, and identifies a fan speed set by a user through the user interface, and determines a target air quality index achievable in thirty minutes of fan operation is provided. Further provided is an air purifier capable of predicting and updating time to achieve a target air quality and a target air quality based on a number of environmental factors.

An apparatus and method for inactivation of airborne pathogens to include a reactor space with an intake opening, an exhaust opening, and an airflow path disposed between the intake and exhaust openings for air to continuously transit throughout the reactor space. The apparatus also includes at least one of (i) a corona discharge unit with a pressure swing adsorption unit, or (ii) a UV-C germicidal lamp to generate a sufficient concentration of ozone and UV light to inactive pathogens. The apparatus also includes a catalyst disposed within the path of the airflow to convert ozone to oxygen following the inactivation step and an adsorbent to remove nitrogen oxides from the air. The apparatus also includes sensors for measuring ozone and nitrogen oxides concentrations at the exhaust opening.

A filtration system comprising: a housing defining an air inlet, an air outlet, a first filter receptacle, and an airflow pathway extending from the inlet to the outlet through the first filter receptacle; a first pair of electrodes in communication with the first filter receptacle configured to define a first conductive pathway across the first filter receptacle; a second pair of electrodes in communication with the first filter receptacle configured to define a second conductive pathway across the first filter receptacle; a controller in communication with the first and second pair of electrodes configured to measure a first electrical property across the first filter receptacle using the first pair of electrodes and a second electrical property across the first filter receptacle using the second pair of electrodes; and an interface in communication with the controller configured to report a filter element status based on the first and second electrical property.

A dust mitigation system for a mobile sweeper, the dust mitigation system including a cover to at least partially cover one or more brushes of the mobile sweeper, a dust collector including at least one fan and one or more filters, and at least one duct fluidly connecting the cover with the dust collector.
