Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a fan with a heating element inside a housing. The heating element and motor can be controlled by a temperature control system or motion detector. The fan can heat or cool a space as needed.

Problems solved by technology

Yet, even with these variations mechanical fans still have drawbacks and further, they often fail to employ modern technology.

Embodiment Construction

[0017]The heating and cooling apparatus of the present invention is shown generally in FIGS. 1-4 as 10, and shown in FIG. 5 as 210. Apparatus 10 includes a fan 12, a housing 14, at least one heating element 16, a motor 18, and a temperature control system 19. Apparatus 10 has a top 20 defined by housing 14, and a bottom 22 defined by fan 12 that therebetween define a vertical direction. Fan 12 includes an imaginary vertically extending center axis 13 defining a radial direction outwardly therefrom.

[0018]With primary reference to FIGS. 2-3, fan 12 is includes fan blades 24, support plate 26, collar 28, and rim 30. Support plate 26 has an upwardly facing top surface 32 and a downwardly facing bottom surface 34, each surface bound by an outer edge 49. An aperture 48 is formed in and extends through support plate 26 adjacent the center of plate 26. In the shown embodiment, support plate 26 is generally circular, however other geometric configurations are clearly possible. Support plate ...

Abstract

A heating and cooling apparatus provides hands free operation for heating and cooling a room and purifying the surrounding air. Apparatus includes a fan, a housing for receiving the fan, and at least one heating element positioned between an outer edge of the fan and an inner surface of the housing. Apparatus further includes system logic to control operation of a motor when a parameter, such as temperature or occupation of a room is detected. Housing includes air purifying properties to reduce virus or bacteria in the air moving through the apparatus.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The present invention relates generally to a heating and cooling apparatus. More specifically, the invention relates to an apparatus used to heat or cool a desired area. In particular, the present invention relates to an apparatus having a housing with a fan and a heating element, wherein the heating element is positioned between the fan and the inner surface of the housing configured to turn on / off through the use of logic.[0003]2. Background Information[0004]Mechanical fans are types of machines used to create flow within a fluid, typically air. Typically, axial-flow fans have blades that move air in a direction parallel to a motor drive shaft about which the blades rotate. Centrifugal fans have blades arranged to move air in a direction generally perpendicular to the intake air flow. Mixed-Flow fans move air both perpendicularly and parallel to the intake air flow.[0005]Electrically powered mechanical fans used to move air ...
