UNITED STATES PATENT ()FFICE.
PAUL GEORGE ELLEN'BERGER, OF CRANE, TEXAS, ASSIGNOR 0F ONE-HALF TO M. A. HARDIN, OF NORPHLET, ARKANSAS.
DOMESTIC WASHING AND COOLING VENTILATOR.
Application filed October 30, 1925. Serial No. 65,895.
The object of my present invention is the provision of an apparatus, designed more particularly for domestic use, and constructed with a view to adequately washing and purifying air supplied to an apartment or the like, and so equipped that in warm Weather the temperature of the air may be very materially lowered en route to the apartment, the apparatus being characterized by simplicity and inexpensivcness and by the fact that it may be operated at low expense.
To the attainment of the foregoing, theinvention consists in the improvement as hereinafter described and definitely claimed.
In the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification The figure is a vertical section, partly in section illustrative of an apparatus constituting one embodiment of my invention.
As illustrated the apparatus is in general cabinet form, the body of the cabinet being designated by 1 and being supported by appropriate legs 2. This,.however, is not of the essence of my invention, since manifestly the cabinet body may be supported by any appropriate means.
In the upper portion of the cabinet body 1 is a chamber 3 through which the purified air passes before it enters an apartment, dwelling house or other place where the ventilator is located. The said chamber 3 is provided with one or more lattice openings 4: for the outward passage of air, and when the cabinet body is of rectangular form in horizontal section the lattice openings 4 are preferably in all four sides of the body.
Disposed below the chamber 3 is a cold storage compartment 5, having a door 6, and designed for the reception and preservation of perishable food stufi, candy or other substance.
At an appropriate point in the cabinet body, and preferably below the chamber 3. one of the walls of the said cabinet body is provided with an opening 7, preferably latticed, for the passage of air to be washed or washed and cooled, as the case may be. The said opening 7 is in communication with a chamber 8, located, by preference,'below the chamber 3. Arranged and adapted to work in the chamber 8 is a suction and blower fan 9, operable by preference through themedium of an electric motor 10, the terminals of the said motor 10 being preferably positioned exterior of the apparatus and not being illustrated inasmuch as per se they form no part of my invention. As a matter of fact any appropriate means may be employed for the actuation of the fan 9, and the electric motor 10 is merely illustrated by way of example to show the best practical means for operating the same of which I am aware.
In the lower portion of the body 1 is a tank 11 designed to receive water, designated by 12 and is also designed in warm weather to receive ice provided ice is employed for the maintenance of the water in a cool or cold condition. In this connection I would have it distinctly understood that it is within the purview of my invention to lower the temperature of the water through the medium of ice immersed in the water or held in any appropriate manner that will enable the ice to reduce the temperature of the water, or in lieu of ice for the purpose stated any other appropriate means may be employed.
Disposed in the tank 11 at an intermediate point in the height thereof is a hollow boX 14, communicating with the interior of which are pipes 15, the said pipes 15 being provided in their portions which are ordinarily immersed in water with apertures 16. Arranged inter mediate of the chamber 8 and the hollow box 14 is a trunk or conduit 17, the said conduit 17 being designed to conduct air from the chamber 8 to the hollow box 14 under the impetus of the fan 9.
As clearly appears in the drawing, a conduit 18 communicates with and extends downwardly from the chamber 3 and is in full communication at its lower end with the comparatively large chamber 19 in which the tank 11 is disposed. The washed and cooled air is passed from the comparatively large chamber 19 to the chamber 3 through the conduit 18, and in order to prevent the too free passage of such air from the chamber 19 to the chamber 3 and through the latter to an apartment of a dwelling, I provide in the conduit 18 the staggered baffles 20 which are preferably arranged in spaced relation and in the manner illustrated.
In the operation of my novel apparatus, when air under more or less impetus or pres sure is supplied to the hollow box 14, the air will be washed by the water in the tank 11,
and a certain portion of water will be entrained with the air and will be discharged so as to serve efiieiently in preventing the passage of spray to the chamber 3.
Under ordinary conditions, it will be understood that water alone in addition to washing the air will to a certain extent reduce the temperature of the air, but when the Weather is very warm and it is desired to lower the temperature of the air to a considerable extent said end may be accomplished by reducing the temperature of the water either through the medium of ice or through the medium of any other appropriate agent.
In the preferred embodiment of my invention the ice is not immersed in the water in the tank 11, but on the other hand the ice is placed in'the ice compartment 21, the said compartment 21 being provided with a drain pipe 22. It will also be noticed that the tank 11 is provided with a drain 22, the said drain being preferably valved so that the water may be removed from the tank 11 whenever desired.
It will be apparent from the foregoing that notwithstanding the simplicity and inexpensiveness of my novel apparatus, the air en routebetween the chamber 8 and the chamber 3 will be washed and freed of impurities or will be washed and cleaned and. cooled, as
the case may be, so that when discharged from the chamber 3 into an apartment, the air will be in a perfectly Wholesome state, and in warm weather the temperature of the air will be reduced to such an extent that the my invention, but I do not desire to be under-' stood as confining myself to the specific construction and relative arrangement of the parts disclosed, inasmuch as in the future practice of the invention such structural changes or modifications may be made as clearly fall within the scope of my invention as defined in my appended claim.
Having described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters-Patent,
The combination of a casing having a chamber with anopening for the ejection of air, a bottom chamber, a compartment in the casing below the first named chamber, and having a bottom wall on which is a skirt flange with portions at right angles to each other, said skirt flange adapted to confine fluid jetted against the lower wallof the compartment, a conduit extending alongside said compartment and skirt flange and connecting said chamber above the compartment with said bottom chamber, baflies in said conduit at intermediate points in the height thereof, and means for maintaining the flow of air through said chambers and conduit.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
PAUL GEORGE ELLENBERGER.
