Inventor: BERGMAN GEORGE
IPC: E04F17/04
Filed: 2003-04-23
Abstract: A stairwell pressurization system may be installed in either new or existing low-rise or high-rise buildings and has at least one air duct and a fan system consisting of one or more fans which are operable to force substantially smoke-free air into the duct under a positive pressure. One or more air outlets are provided on the duct in the stairwell in the vicinity of each hallway exit door leading into the stairwell. The air outlets are most preferably vertically elongated and oriented so as to direct air from the duct at the opening edge of the stairwell entrance door. The air outlets are electrically, electronically or physically connected to the stairwell door so as to be selectively opened or closed with the movement of the adjacent door. In a simplified construction. one of the elongated air outlets opens into the duct and is normally maintained in a non-air flow position by a baffle door which is moved to open or close the air outlet. The stairwell entrance door has one end of a pulley cable coupled thereto, with the other end coupled to the baffle door. The baffle door is connected by a pivot and is biased in a closed position by a spring. As the stairwell entrance door is swung open. the pulley cable is drawn therewith. moving the baffle door so as to be opened together with the stairwell exit door. Air is then directed from the pressurized air duct through the elongated air outlet and along the open edge of the stairwell door. As the door progressively opens, the air outlet opens wider to direct more air from the pressurized air duct at the stairwell door through an elongated air outlet.

Title: Side conveyor disc including quick-change features
Inventor: BONNET HENRI
IPC: B65G47/10
Filed: 1998-04-29
Abstract: Disclosed is a conveying and diverting apparatus for selectively discharging conveying parcels having a lower surface from a conveying path. The conveying and diverting apparatus comprises a conveyor configured for conveying parcels along the conveying path by supporting the lower surfaces of the parcels, the conveyor defining an elongate gap transverse to the path. A substantially planar disc is rotatably mounted about an axis substantially parallel to the conveying axis, the disc having a substantially circular periphery. A disc supporting shaft is substantially rigidly attached to and supports the disc, and means rotatably mount the disc supporting shaft relative to the conveyor gap along an indexing rotational axis such that the disc supporting shaft pivots about an axis substantially perpendicular to that of the conveying axis such that the when the disc is at a first indexed position, the disc interferes with the parcels in the conveyor path, but when the disc is at a second indexed position, the disc does not interfere with the parcels in the conveyor path. Means selectively index the disc supporting shaft about its longitudinal axis while the disc supporting shaft is rotating such that parcels on the conveyor may be correspondingly selectively discharged from the conveying path upon the indexing of the disc supporting shaft which causes the disc to contact the lower surfaces of the parcels and to discharge the parcels.
