Abstract:
An air diffuser module for use as a part of an outlet, plenum, or register for conditioned air and to support, be supported by, or connected to another part of the outlet, the module comprising:a module frame; at least one deflection damper pivotally mounted vertically within the module frame, each deflection damper having a first damper wall and a second damper wall, the first damper wall being bent around in a general direction toward itself forming a first wall portion and a first flange portion substantially parallel to each other and the second damper wall being bent around in a general direction toward itself forming a second wall portion and a second flange portion substantially parallel to each other thereby forming a first air entrapment area between the first wall portion and the first flange portion and a second air entrapment area between the second wall portion and the second flange portion; at least one trajectory vane pivotally mounted horizontally within the module frame; and adjusting means secured within each trajectory vane for adjusting the angle of each trajectory vane relative to the module frame responding to the temperature of the supply conditioned air; thereby providing an energy saving air pattern by directing conditioned supply air to the proper elevation for mixing prior to the air entering an occupied zone and thereby reducing air temperature stratification.
