Patent ID: 7510471

Claim:
A flow spreading mechanism comprising: at least one inlet through which a fluid flow is introduced, the at least one inlet formed in a conduit; a flow separating means for separating the fluid flow introduced through the at least one inlet into at least two fluid flows; and an outlet for discharging at least two of the at least two fluid flows divided by the flow separating means and joined together at a joining point thereafter, the outlet being formed in the conduit to form a flow path between the inlet and the outlet, wherein the outlet is located adjacent to the joining point where the at least two fluid flows are joined together such that the fluid flow being discharged through the outlet swings while proceeding due to complex vortices caused by the at least two fluid flows being joined together at the joining point and so the fluid flow being discharged through the outlet is discharged to a space outside of the conduit, wherein the conduit is installed in the space, wherein the flow spreading mechanism further comprises at least one sink installed at a predetermined location inside a wall surrounding the space, the at least one sink comprising an opening for discharging fluid inside the space to the outside, wherein air discharged from the outlet moves along the wall, and is dispelled out through the at least one sink; wherein the flow separating means further comprises a blunt body placed inside the conduit to form two separated flow paths inside the conduit, and wherein the at least one sink has a same width as a width of the blunt body.
