AIR TREATMENT APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18452288 titled 'AIR TREATMENT APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an air treatment apparatus that includes a heat exchanger and a dust collector. The dust collector is positioned before the heat exchanger and collects substances present in the air. The dust collector either has a surface where water flows or a surface where water is retained.

  • The air treatment apparatus includes a heat exchanger and a dust collector.
  • The heat exchanger exchanges heat between a fluid and air.
  • The dust collector is located upstream of the heat exchanger in the air flow.
  • The dust collector collects substances present in the air.
  • The dust collector has a surface where water flows or is retained.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Air purification systems for residential or commercial buildings.
  • HVAC systems to improve air quality.
  • Industrial air treatment systems for factories or manufacturing facilities.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Removes substances and particles from the air, improving air quality.
  • Prevents these substances from reaching the heat exchanger, reducing potential damage or clogging.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhances the efficiency and lifespan of the heat exchanger.
  • Improves the overall air quality in the treated environment.
  • Reduces maintenance and cleaning requirements for the heat exchanger.


Original Abstract Submitted

An air treatment apparatus includes: a heat exchanger that exchanges heat between a fluid flowing through a first flow path and air flowing through a second flow path; and a first dust collector disposed upstream of the heat exchanger in a flow of the air and that collects a substance contained in the air flowing to the heat exchanger. The first dust collector has: a surface over which water flows, or a surface on which water is retained.
