Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention
This application is a Continuation-in-Part of application Ser. No. 10/661,023, filed Sep. 12, 2003, which is a continuation in part of application Ser. No. 10/328,877, filed on Dec. 24, 2002.
The present invention relates to an environmental air treatment system and more particularly pertains to safely and conveniently allowing a user to efficiently manage the heating and cooling of a living space.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of other methods and systems of known configurations is known in the prior art. More specifically, other methods and systems of known configurations previously devised and utilized for the purpose of heating and cooling the air within a living space are known to consist basically of familiar, expected, and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which has been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
By way of example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,183,102 issued to Clark on Feb. 2, 1993, discloses a heating and cooling system which utilizes hot and cold water services to a building to supply heating and cooling to a living space. U.S. Pat. No. 4,375,831 issued to Downing, Jr., issued on Mar. 8, 1983 discloses a geothermal heating and cooling system. U.S. Pat. No. 6,422,319 issued to Haase III on Jul. 23, 2002 discloses a water distribution network for domestic and fire prevention. U.S. Pat. No. 5,975,192 issued to Maratalla, et al on Nov. 2, 1999 discloses an attic air conditioning unit.
While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not describe environmental air treatment system that allows one to safely and conveniently manage the heating and cooling of a living space.
In this respect, the environmental air treatment system according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in doing so provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of safely and conveniently allowing a user to efficiently manage the heating and cooling of a living space.
Therefore, it can be appreciated that there exists a continuing need for a new and improved environmental air treatment system which can be used to safely and conveniently allow a user to efficiently manage the heating and cooling of a living space. In this regard, the present invention substantially fulfills this need.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of other methods and systems of known configurations now present in the prior art, the present invention provides an improved environmental air treatment system. As such, the general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new and improved environmental air treatment system and method which has all the advantages of the prior art and none of the disadvantages.
To attain this, the present invention essentially comprises an environmental air treatment system to safely and conveniently allow a user to efficiently manage the heating and cooling of a living space. The system comprises, in combination the following components. First provided is a living space. The living space comprises walls, a ceiling and a floor. There is an enclosed space within said walls, ceiling and floor. The living space has a sleeping area and a toilet area and a bathroom area. The living space may be one of a plurality of living spaces, such as in an apartment building, or a condominium. Next provided is a rooftop combination air intake and air exhaust housing. The housing has four parallel opposing sides and a lower bottom floor and an upper top. The sides, top and lower floor form an internal hollow chamber. The chamber has a thermal exchange unit housed within the interior of the chamber thereby forming an intake side and an exhaust side. The thermal exchange unit may be a heat recovery wheel or a desiccant wheel, depending on the geographical location of the installation. The housing also has an exhaust opening and an intake opening. The thermal exchange unit allows for the utilization of warmed exhaust air used during a heating application to warm the cooler incoming air and the utilization of cool outflowing air used during a cooling application to cool the warmer incoming air. Next provided is a plurality of ducts forming a duct work system. The ducts are coupled with the housing and thereby forming a continuous internal hollow pathway within the duct work. Next provided is a plurality of duct work registers being located within the walls and ceiling of the living space. The duct work is coupled to the registers, with the registers having an opening and closing mechanism to restrict the passage of air through the register into and out of the duct work. Next provided is an air movement fan housing, also known as an air handler flow housing. The fan housing has a hollow rectangular configuration and is fabricated of rigid material. The housing has an intake aperture and an outflow aperture. The intake aperture is coupled to the duct work which is in turn coupled to the intake aperture and to the intake opening of the rooftop air intake housing. The outflow aperture is coupled by the duct work to a plurality of registers located within the living space. The air handler flow housing has contained therein a plurality of components. The components comprise a fan and a fan motor and two heat exchange units, a hot water unit and a cold water unit. Also included is a plurality of pipe connections coupling with the heat exchange units. The air handler flow housing also has an internal drip containment pan with a drain plug to capture and contain condensation and to allow the convenient draining of the pan. Next provided is a hot water source from the class of hot water sources containing an electrically heated water source, and a gas heated water source and a solar heated water source. Hot water piping is coupled to the hot water source and to the hot water heat exchanger to serve as an enclosed conduit to allow the passage of heated water into the heat exchanger located within the flow housing. Next provided is a cold water source from the class of water sources containing an electrically cooled water source, and a gas cooled water source and a geothermically cooled water source. Cold water piping is coupled to the cold water source and to the cold water heat exchanger to serve as an enclosed conduit to allow the passage of cold water into the heat exchanger inside of the flow housing. The hot and cold sources thereby allow the heat exchanger to provide a source of heat or cold within the housing. Next provided is an electronically controlled thermostat. Each living space has a thermostat therein to regulate the temperature there within. The thermostat is located within the confines of the living space and positioned to allow the convenient and accurate monitoring of air temperature within the living space. Lastly provided is a plurality of valves being coupled in-line to the hot and cold water supply pipes. The valves each have an associated solenoid coupled there to. The valves are coupled electronically to the thermostat and the associated solenoid. The thermostat causes the operation of the valve, by a solenoid, into an opened or closed position, thereby directing water flow through the system. The valves allow for the control of the amount of heated or cooled water that is directed to the heat exchanger within the air handler flow housing.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated.

With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIG. 1 thereof, the preferred embodiment of the new and improved environmental air treatment system embodying the principles and concepts of the present invention and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.
The present invention, the environmental air treatment system 10 is comprised of a plurality of components. Such components in their broadest context include a thermal exchanger, a plurality of heat exchangers, a plurality of ducts forming duct work and an air handler. Such components are individually configured and correlated with respect to each other so as to attain the desired objective.
An environmental air treatment system 10 to safely and conveniently allow a user to efficiently manage the heating and cooling of a living space. The system comprises, in combination the following components.
First provided is a living space 12. The living space comprises walls 14, a ceiling 16 and a floor 18. There is an enclosed space within said walls, ceiling and floor. The living space has a sleeping area and a toilet area and a bathroom area. It should be noted that a living space may be one of a plurality of living spaces coupled together, such as in an apartment building or a condominium.
Next provided is a rooftop combination air intake and air exhaust housing 20. The housing has four parallel opposing sides 22 and a lower bottom floor 24 and an upper top 26. The sides, top and lower floor form an internal hollow chamber. The chamber has an air-to-air thermal exchange unit 30 housed within the interior of the chamber. The thermal exchange unit comprises a regeneration blower 31, a desiccant wheel 33, a supply blower 35, and a control unit 37 to control the workings of the thermal exchange unit. The unit also comprises a desiccant wheel drive motor 39 and at least one sensor 41. The thermal exchange unit is configured to have an intake side 32 and an exhaust side 34. The housing also has an exhaust opening 36 and an intake opening 38. The thermal exchange unit allows for the utilization of warmed exhaust air used during a heating application to warm the cooler incoming air and the utilization of cool outflowing air used during a cooling application to cool the warmer incoming air.
In an alternate embodiment the system would have a heat recovery wheel 43 in place of a desiccant wheel. In this embodiment there would also be a regeneration blower 45 and a supply blower 47 associated with the heat recovery wheel.
In an alternate embodiment the system would not have a rooftop combination air intake and air exhaust housing. The alternate embodiment would comprise a heat pump 21 located within the living space of a building, with the building having an existing sprinkler system 23. The sprinkler system would be divided into a supply side 25 and a return side 27. The heat pump would have a supply side water line 29 for water using a portion of an existing sprinkler system and a return side water line 31 for water using a portion of an exiting sprinkler system. The alternate embodiment system would have a cooling tower 33, or a geothermal heat exchange subassembly, or a water source to carry out heat exchange outside of the living space of the building.
In the alternate embodiment the water would be moved by water pressure through the heat pump and back to the sprinkler system. Heating or cooling of the water would take place within the cooling tower. The cooling tower would contain a pump means 35 to move the water through the system. Water temperature between the feed side and the return side of the system would range between about 60 degrees Fahrenheit and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
In this alternate system a portion of an existing sprinkler system would connected to the supply side of the heat pump and a portion of the existing sprinkler system would be connected to the return side of the heat pump. In the case of heating, the heat from the water would be extracted and the cooler water would be returned, via a portion of an existing sprinkler system, to a cooling tower. A pump would move the water through the tower, where the cooler water would be warmed. The warmed water would then be recycled into the sprinkler system and the process would be repeated again. The heat pump of the alternate embodiment could be coupled to duct work and a thermostat 78 to efficiently control the heating or cooling of a living space.
Next provided is a plurality of ducts 44 forming a duct work system. The ducts are coupled with the housing and thereby forming a continuous internal hollow pathway within the duct work.
Next provided is a plurality of duct work registers 46 being located within the walls and ceiling of the living space.

Next provided is a cold water source 74 from the class of water sources containing an electrically cooled water source, and a gas cooled water source and a geothermically cooled water source. Cold water piping 76 is coupled to the cold water source and to the heat exchanger to serve as an enclosed conduit to allow the passage of cold water into the heat exchanger inside of the flow housing. The hot and cold sources thereby allow the heat exchanger to provide a source of heat or cold within the housing.
Next provided is an electronically controlled thermostat 78. The thermostat is located within the confines of a living space and positioned to allow the convenient and accurate monitoring of air temperature within the living space. Each living space has a thermostat to control the internal environmental temperatures of that living space. The thermostat may be electronic. The thermostat may be a programmable type. The thermostat may also be a mercury switch type, as well as a coil spring type.
Next provided, in each living space, is at least one 3-way water valves 82 and at least one 2-way water valve, with each being coupled in-line of the hot and cold water supply pipes. Each valve has an associated solenoid couple there to. The associated solenoid is electronically coupled to the thermostat. In this way, the valves are therefore coupled electronically to the thermostat. The valves allow for the control of the amount of heated or cooled water that is directed to the heat exchanger within the air handler flow housing.
Next provided is a bypass pipe which allows the water to bypass a heat exchanger. A 2-way valve is coupled to the bypass pipe to stop the passage of water, or to allow the passage of water through the bypass. A 3-way valve is located at the juncture of the bypass pipe and the return side of the hot water and cold water pipes In an alternate configuration, the system may also provide a source for heating the water of a swimming pool 86 or a spa 88.
Lastly provided is a plurality of fire sprinkler outlets 90 being coupled to the cold water source piping in the living space. The use of the fire sprinklers as a component of the cooling system provides for the continuous circulation of the fire sprinkler water within the pipes, preventing corrosion and blockage.
As to the manner of usage and operation of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
