Economizer

US Patent:
6346041, Feb 12, 2002
Filed:
Feb 4, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/498402
Inventors:
John S. Desmond - Concord MA
Rumen N. Raykov - Belmont MA
Benjamin J. Kalinowski - Newton NH
Richard J. Rummo - Amesbury MA
Brett E. OBrien - Plymouth MA
William J. Cleary - Woburn MA
Darrell M. Kohr - Pembroke MA
Assignee:
Cox Engineering Company, Inc. - Canton MA
International Classification:
F24F 1304
US Classification:
454268, 454236
Abstract:
The present invention is an economizer that is capable of mixing outside air and inside air while incurring a significantly low pressure drop across the return air damper. In one embodiment, the economizer comprises a mixing chamber, a return air vent, and an outside air vent. The economizer further comprises a plurality of curved return air dampers moveable from an open position to a closed position to control the flow of return air to the mixing chamber. The economizer further comprises a plurality of straight dampers moveable from an open position to a closed position to control the flow of outside air to the mixing chamber. During operation of the economizer, a significantly lower pressure drop exists across the curved return air dampers than in conventional economizers thereby reducing the amount of energy needed to operate fans to maintain the desired air flow.

Rotor Support System

US Patent:
8641809, Feb 4, 2014
Filed:
Oct 26, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/926101
Inventors:
Benjamin J. Kalinowski - Newton NH, US
Gregoire N. Gosselin - Kingston NH, US
Assignee:
Munters Corporation - Amesbury MA
International Classification:
B01D 53/02
US Classification:
96151, 96138, 96125, 95113
Abstract:
A system and method for easing the installation and removal of a desiccant rotor from an air handling system. The system and method enabling the installation of a shaft through the center of a rotor, the shaft having a first end portion protruding from the first axial face and a second end portion protruding from the second axial face, supporting the shaft and the rotor with a first support rail and a second support rail, the first and second support rails being positioned on opposite axial sides of the rotor and extending radially outward from a radial center of the rotor in an installed position, placing at least one keeper mechanism on each of the first and second support rails to secure the rotor in the installed position, and removing the at least one keeper mechanism to allow translational movement of the rotor along the first and second support rails.
