INTERCHANGEABLE MODULAR CUTOFF FOR CENTRIFUGAL BLOWERS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035485 titled 'INTERCHANGEABLE MODULAR CUTOFF FOR CENTRIFUGAL BLOWERS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a centrifugal blower assembly with a blower housing that has a scroll wall defining a blower chamber. The scroll wall extends circumferentially between a cutoff point and an end point, defining a blower circumference. The blower housing also has a surface adjacent to the cutoff point. The assembly includes a modular cutoff that attaches to the surface of the blower housing. The modular cutoff has an abutting surface and a cutoff surface that extends the cutoff point of the blower to an extended cutoff surface. The abutting surface of the modular cutoff includes an attachment feature that mates with an attachment feature of the blower housing.

  • The centrifugal blower assembly includes a blower housing with a scroll wall and a blower chamber.
  • The blower housing has a surface adjacent to a cutoff point.
  • A modular cutoff is attached to the surface of the blower housing.
  • The modular cutoff extends the cutoff point of the blower by its cutoff surface to an extended cutoff surface.
  • The abutting surface of the modular cutoff has an attachment feature that mates with an attachment feature of the blower housing.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • HVAC systems
  • Industrial ventilation systems
  • Automotive cooling systems

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a modular cutoff that can extend the blower circumference for improved performance.
  • Allows for easy attachment and detachment of the cutoff to the blower housing.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced blower performance and efficiency.
  • Simplified assembly and maintenance of the blower assembly.
  • Flexibility in adjusting the blower circumference for different applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

a centrifugal blower assembly including a blower housing having a scroll wall defining a blower chamber, the scroll wall extending circumferentially between a cutoff point to an end point defining a blower circumference, the blower housing further having a surface adjacent to the cutoff point; and a modular cutoff configured to attach to the surface of the blower housing, the modular cutoff having an abutting surface and a cutoff surface configured to extend the cutoff point of the blower by the cutoff surface to an extended cutoff surface. the abutting surface of the modular cutoff further includes an attachment feature configured to mate to an attachment feature of the blower housing.
