CHARLES L. OSBURN, OF ABERDEEN, SOUTH DAKOTA.
WINDOW DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent. 'Patented Sept. 10, 1918.
Application filed December 18, 1917. Serial No. 207,728.
To all whom it may concern: 7
Be it known that I, CHARLES L. OSBURN, citizen of the 'United "States, residing at Aberdeen, in the county of Brown and State of South Dakota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Window Devices, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to window ventilators, and more particularly to ventilators of that type which may be placed in a window opening or removed therefrom at will.
One of the main objects of the invention is to provide a ventilator of the character stated of simple construction which may be produced at small cost.
A further object is to provide a ventilator which is adapted to contain a liquid to be evaporated by the infiowing air, means being provided for causing the air to flow over the surface of this liquid so as to be cooled thereby.
Further objects will appear from the detailed description.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is-a perspective back view of a ventilator constructed in accordance with my invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse-section.
The ventilator is formed from sheet metal of suitable gage being provided with the front wall 1, back wall 2, end wall 3, and top 1. The front wall 1 extends substantially half the height of the front of the ventilator casing, and the upper edge portion thereof is turned downward and outward at an angle to provide an inclined lip or flange The space between this flange and the top wall of the casing forms the air-discharge opening of the ventilator through which the air flows into the room to be ventilated. This opening is covered by a screen 7 of wire or other suitable fabric which is secured to the flange 5 and tea vertical flange 8 formed at the inner edge of top 4 by bending the forward portion of this top up at right angles. The upper edge portion of screen 7 is turned down in back of this vertical flange and is securely held between the same and a packing strip 9 of rubber or other suitable material which is held by a U-clip or bead 10 secured to the top 1. This bead acts to secure the screen in position and also serves to provide a resilient cushion member adapted to be engaged by the lower rall of the win.
dow sash for securing the ventilator in posi t1on 1n the window openlng.
The back wall- 2 of the casing is of somewhat less height than front wall 1 and is provided with a downwardly and outwardly directed flange 11. The space between this flange and the top of the casing constitutes the air inlet opening 12. A screen 13 is secured over this opening by being fastened to flange 11 at its lower edge and to the top 4 at its upper edge. This ventilator is placed in the window opening so as to extend the full width thereof, being securely held in position by engagement of the lower rail of the window sash with the packing strip 9. The air flows into opening 12 through the casing and out of opening 6 into the room.
To cool this air which flows into the room I provide means whereby the casing may be partially filled to a predetermined level with water, the inflowing air being caused to pass 7 over the surface of this water so as to cause evaporation thereof and thus cool the inflowing air. For this purpose I provide an overflow tube 1 1 secured through the back wall 2, and a filling opening 15 through the top 4. Water or other suitable liquid is poured into the casing through this opening so as to fill the same to a level with the outlet opening of tube 14. This water provides a comparatively large surface over which the incoming air is caused to flow by means of the downwardly and forwardly inclined deflecting plate 16 which projects downwardly from the rearward edge of top-4 and extends the full length of the casing, the lower edge of this plate being in a plane slightly above the upper edge of back plate 2. The deflector causes the air entering through opening 12 to flow downward onto and over the surface of the water in the lower partof the casing so as to cause the evaporation thereof, this evaportion of the water serving to cool and dampen the air preliminary to its entering the room through screen 7. In addition, the deflecting plate acts to direct all particles of dust and foreign matter which may be contained in the air flowing into the casing onto the surface of the water so as to be caught and retained thereby, the water thus acting to thoroughly clean the air as it flows through the casing.
What I claim is:
