Disclosed are a pollutant capturer and mobilizer and method of mobilizing a polluted gaseous substance from one location towards another location and capturing one or multiple types of polluting substances, such as CO.sub.2, from an atmospheric body of polluted gaseous substance or from exhaust of vehicles, chimneys, or stacks and thereby combat the negative health, environmental, and economic impacts of the of the polluting substances on communities. Wet or dry embodiments of the pollutant capturer and mobilizer utilize wet or dry pollutant capturing components, respectively, to capture one or multiple types of polluting substances from a body of polluted gaseous substance. Flow-establishing devices can be used to set the body of polluted gaseous substance in motion through the pollutant capturing component. The pollutant capturer and mobilizer may also be mounted on any type of vehicle, with or without using flow-establishing devices.

A dirt collector that includes a housing and an air-permeable filter media extending from the housing such that the filter media and housing at least partially define a collection volume. The housing has an inlet opening in fluid communication with the volume and at least a portion of the housing is transmissive of infrared radiation

A vacuum cleaner that includes a suction source configured to generate a suction airflow, a dirt collector in fluid communication with the suction source and configured to separate debris from the suction airflow and the dirt collector is configured to store the debris separated from the suction airflow. The vacuum further includes an infrared sensor operable to output a signal corresponding to a distance to an amount of debris stored in the dirt collector, a controller that receives the signal, and the controller is operable to determine a fill level stored in the dirt collector based on the signal. A visual display displays the fill level stored in the dirt collector.

The present disclosure relates to an air purifier. An air purifier according to an aspect of the present disclosure may include: a first body having an inlet and an outlet; a fan; a second body coupled to the first body, having a central portion located above the first body, and extending from the central portion in a direction crossing the up-and-down direction; a substrate; a light source disposed at the central portion or at a position corresponding to the central portion in the up-and-down direction; and a light guide facing the light source, and extending in a direction away from the central portion, so it is possible to minimize the number of the light sources and deliver light to an outside of the air purifier.

Provided is a humidification and air cleaning apparatus. The humidification and air cleaning apparatus includes an air clean module receiving external air and performing filtration on the entered external air to generate filtered air, an air wash module disposed at an upper part of the air clean module, receiving filtered air from the air clean module, and performing humidification on the filtered air, a dust sensor disposed on at least one of the air clean module or the air wash module and detecting a dust concentration of external air, and a lighting module disposed on at least one of the air clean module or the air wash module and emitting light as a color classified according to a dust concentration detected from the dust sensor.

A powered room air purifier with a visual indicator of air quality, the visual indicator including: a reflector that defines a forwardly-open-ended reflecting cavity and that includes at least one through-opening in a floor or ceiling of the reflector; at least one diffuser layer that covers the forward opening of the forward-open-ended reflecting cavity; and, at least one LED light source that is positioned within the at least one through-opening, the LED light source and the reflector being configured so that the LED light source is shielded from line-of-sight view along a forward-rearward axis of the powered room air purifier.

An air conditioner includes a casing having an air outflowing cavity. A side wall of the air outflowing cavity has an air outflowing opening. The air conditioner further includes an air treatment device disposed in the casing and having an air inlet and an air outlet, and a light emission component provided at an outer peripheral side of the air outlet and configured to emit light towards the air outflowing cavity.

An information handling system (IHS) includes a node having a node enclosure provisioned with at least one heat-generating component. A device that provides infrastructure support to the node contains an air mover is attached to the node enclosure. The air mover creates cooling air flow through the node to absorb and transfer thermal energy from the at least one heat-generating component. An air filter enclosure is attachable over an air intake of the device. The air filter enclosure has a top slot sized to receive a manually inserted air filter into an air filter receiving frame. Replacement of the air filter can be achieved without tools. The air filter filters the air prior to the air entering the node enclosure to remove impurities and possible particulates that can damage the internal components of the device.

A surgical gas delivery system is disclosed that includes a device housing supporting a control unit and a filter interface having a seat for receiving a filter cartridge, the filter cartridge having a filter housing defining an interior reservoir, wherein sensors are coupled to the control unit for sensing a level of liquid within the reservoir of the filter cartridge to prevent contamination of the device, and wherein a set of blocking valves are provided in the device housing for interacting with the filter cartridge when it is received in the filter interface to control flow through suction and pressure lines of the device, and wherein the control unit is adapted to recognize a characteristic of the filter cartridge received in the filter interface.

A surgical gas delivery device includes a filter cartridge interface and a computer controlled control unit configured to control the circulation of surgical gas during endoscopic surgery. The control unit can operate in a plurality of different modes of operation. A tube set for connecting the surgical gas delivery device to one or more end effectors includes a filter cartridge in fluid communication with the tube set. The filter cartridge is seated in the filter cartridge interface of the surgical gas delivery device to communicate surgical gas between the surgical gas delivery device and the one or more end effectors. The surgical gas delivery device includes a reader operatively connected to receive input from a data carrying element of the tube set. The data carrying element, reader, and control unit can launch a specific one of the modes of operation when the filter cartridge is inserted.
