Title: Building, ventilation system, and recovery device control
Inventor: MITCHELL RICHARD K
IPC: F28F5/02
Filed: 2007-11-07
Abstract: Control systems for recovery wheels, ventilation systems with recovery devices, buildings having ventilation, and methods of controlling recovery wheels and controlling or modifying ventilation systems. A parameter of ventilation systems or recovery devices, such as the speed of a recovery wheel, may be controlled as a function of pressure, differential pressure, flow rate, or fan speed, for example, to provide appropriate purge flow to maintain purge effectiveness and limit the carry-over of contaminants from a return/exhaust airstream to an outside/supply airstream, for instance, in a variable air-volume system. A purge angle may be set at a minimum position commensurate with a maximum flow rate and recovery-wheel speed may be reduced at lower flows to maintain purge effectiveness. In some embodiments, temperature and humidity are measured, and wheel speed is also controlled as a function of these measurements. Systems may utilize sensors, input devices, digital controllers, variable-speed drives, and alarms.

Title: Cvt control system
Inventor: GREENWOOD CHRISTOPHER JOHN
IPC: F16H37/08
Filed: 2008-02-07
Abstract: The invention concerns a simple mechanical arrangement for controlling a multi- regime continuously variable transmission. The transmission in question comprises a variator (10) and a gearing arrangement including a low regime clutch (CL) and a high regime clutch (CH). Engaging the low regime clutch places the transmission in the low regime. Engaging the high regime clutch places it in the high regime. The control system comprises a control part (such as a lever) which is movable by the user along a control path from a low ratio end to a high ratio end. The position of the control part dictates variator ratio and transmission ratio. The system further incorporates a low regime clutch control device which engages the low regime clutch when the control part is between the low ratio end of its path and a low clutch transition point, and which releases the low regime clutch when the control part is between the low clutch transition point and the high ratio end of its path. It additionally incorporates a high regime clutch control which releases the high regime clutch when the control part is between the low ratio end of its path and a high clutch transition point, and which engages the high regime clutch when the control part is between the high clutch transition point and the high ratio end of its path. In this way, a mechanical arrangement can be provided which manages both transmission ratio and the clutch changes required upon regime change.
