WATERFALL GRILLE OF HVAC SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240034130 titled 'WATERFALL GRILLE OF HVAC SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an airflow grille for a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. The grille consists of a housing and a plate that are assembled together, creating a plenum between them. The housing has an airflow inlet, while the plate has multiple airflow outlets. Vane arrangements are positioned on the plate between the airflow outlets. These vane arrangements direct a portion of the conditioned airflow between the housing and the vane arrangement, while the rest exits through the corresponding airflow outlets.

  • The airflow grille is designed for HVAC systems.
  • It consists of a housing and a plate assembled together.
  • The housing has an airflow inlet, and the plate has multiple airflow outlets.
  • Vane arrangements are positioned on the plate between the airflow outlets.
  • The vane arrangements direct a portion of the airflow between the housing and the vane arrangement.
  • The remaining airflow exits through the airflow outlets.

Potential Applications

  • Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems in residential buildings.
  • HVAC systems in commercial buildings, such as offices, shopping malls, and hotels.
  • Industrial HVAC systems in factories and manufacturing facilities.

Problems Solved

  • Efficient distribution of conditioned airflow in HVAC systems.
  • Improved control of airflow direction and distribution.
  • Reduction of air leakage and energy loss.

Benefits

  • Enhanced comfort and air quality in indoor spaces.
  • Energy efficiency and cost savings in HVAC operations.
  • Customizable airflow patterns for different room layouts and requirements.
  • Improved performance and effectiveness of HVAC systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

an airflow grille of a heating, ventilation and air conditioning (hvac) system includes a grille housing and a grille plate assembled to the grille housing. the grille housing and the grille plate define a grille plenum therebetween. an airflow inlet in defined in the grille housing and a plurality of airflow outlets are defined in the grille plate. a plurality of vane arrangements are arrayed on the grille plate. each vane arrangement located between adjacent airflow outlets of the grille plate. each vane arrangement is configured such that at each vane arrangement a first portion of a conditioned airflow flowing through the airflow grille is directed between the grille housing and the vane arrangement and a second portion of the conditioned airflow exits the airflow grille through a corresponding airflow outlet of the plurality of airflow outlets.
