Solar Collector-Skylight Assembly

US Patent:
4475536, Oct 9, 1984
Filed:
Feb 9, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/465155
Inventors:
Richard E. Dame - Silver Spring MD
Assignee:
Mega Engineering - Silver Spring MD
International Classification:
F24J 302
US Classification:
126419
Abstract:
A solar collector-skylight assembly having movable parabolic concentrators wherein, in one position the parabolic concentrators direct solar energy to a collector to heat fluid circulating therethrough to thereby provide a solar heater; and when the concentrators are moved to another position, the assembly functions as a skylight wherein the solar energy is allowed to pass through the collector, to thereby illuminate the interior of a building upon which the solar collector-skylight assembly is mounted.

Radon Gas Ventilation Pump System And Method

US Patent:
4905579, Mar 6, 1990
Filed:
Mar 11, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/167089
Inventors:
Richard E. Dame - Silver Spring MD
International Classification:
F24F 1104, F24F 1200
US Classification:
98 15
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for exchanging air within building in order to exhaust air contaminated with radon gas or other pollutants. The apparatus includes a heat reclaim exchanger to recapture building heat which is dimensioned to be mountable between standard spaced and sized floor joists of a dwelling basement ceiling. A solar panel is used to produce electric power for system operation and cooperates with a trickle charge unit including a storage battery to provide power when there is insufficient light energy available to operate the device. A control unit operates one or more fans or blowers to provide a positive differential pressure within a basement area with respect to outside air pressure so as to inhibit and arrest the influx of radon or other gaseous pollutant into the basement or other confined space of device use.
