US Patent:

20060052047, Mar 9, 2006

Filed:

Aug 24, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/212204

Inventors:

William Daniels - Santa Rosa CA, US

International Classification:

F24F 7/00

US Classification:

454237000

Abstract:

A system and method of vent placement within a building is provided for improved passive ventilation. Vents are provided within the dividing structures or material layers that form the building's exterior and interior walls, ceiling, roof, floor, and/or intermediate story-defining “ceiling-floors.” Preferably, each vent is not a conventional ventilation stack and is oriented generally along a planar portion of the dividing structure within which the vent is positioned. Preferably, each vent is substantially entirely contained within its associated dividing structure. Vents are provided in corner sections of exterior walls, roof-portions, and the bottom floor of the building. Vents are also provided in corner sections of the ceiling portions, floor portions, and wall portions that define the interior rooms of the building. The vents are preferably vertically aligned throughout a substantial portion of the height (or more preferably substantially the entire height) of the building, at one or more horizontal positions thereof, to thereby produce one or more substantially vertical flows of air upward and out of the building, without the use of stack vents.

Appl. No.:

11/212517

Inventors:

William Daniels - Santa Rosa CA, US

International Classification:

F24F 7/02

US Classification:

454365000

Abstract:

An elongated roof ridgeline vent is disclosed, comprising an elongated opening in a roof-cover along the ridge and a canopy or cover over the opening. Baffles may be provided between the canopy and the roof-cover to prevent wind-driven rain from entering the opening. Screens or other filtering elements can be provided to prevent the ingress of insects, vermin, and debris through the opening. Also disclosed is a roof employing upper and lower roof-covers spaced apart to form an air insulation layer, with a ridgeline vent in the upper roof-cover. The air layer additionally acts as a ventilation path for air from the attic. Also disclosed are eave vents, undereave vents, and layers for reflecting or absorbing solar radiation. Additionally disclosed are embodiments that employ these ventilation principles in a roof-portion with an upper apex, such as a conical roof.

Appl. No.:

11/526215

Inventors:

William Daniels - Santa Rosa CA, US
Carolina O'Hagin - Sebastopol CA, US

International Classification:

F24F 7/02

US Classification:

454365000

Abstract:

A passive ventilation control system and method. The system includes passive vents throughout a building. The vents may be arranged in multiple sets, with each set being substantially vertically aligned through multiple floors or the entire height of the building. Sensors are positioned inside and/or outside the building for sensing different environmental parameters or atmospheric conditions. The sensors send signals to a controller, which automatically adjusts airflow through the vents in response to the signals from the sensors.

Appl. No.:

11/546537

Inventors:

William Daniels - Santa Rosa CA, US
Gregory Daniels - Santa Rosa CA, US

International Classification:

F24F 7/02

US Classification:

454250000

Abstract:

A roof vent comprises a lower member and a vent cap. The lower member comprises a base portion configured to be secured over an opening of a roof cover, a closed wall structure extending upward from the base portion, and a screen covering a vent-opening defined at an upper end of the wall structure. The vent cap is secured to the wall structure and comprises a cover portion extending over the vent-opening and the screen, and a closed flange extending downward from a peripheral edge of the cover portion. The cover portion is configured to prevent the flow of water from above the cover portion into the vent-opening. The closed flange surrounds, and extends below the upper end of, the wall structure, such that a gap is formed between the closed flange and the wall structure. In some embodiments, the cover portion of the vent cap is translucent to admit light through the roof. In some embodiments, one or more baffles extend transversely from the wall structure, to further prevent the ingress of water, ice, hail, debris, etc. through the vent. In some embodiments, the screen has a plurality of screen-openings, each of the screen-openings having a largest width between 0.125-0.25 inch. In some embodiments, the screen comprises first and second sets of substantially parallel elongated cords, the two sets of cords being oriented at an angle with respect to each other.

Assignee:

REAGENT CHEMICAL & RESEARCH, INC - Ringoes NJ

International Classification:

E01F 9/553

Abstract:

A method of resurfacing a length of roadway or other paved surface having markers thereon includes covering the markers with respective marker covers, applying a coating material to the road and the marker covers, then removing the covers. The marker covers mask the markers from the coating material. An inside dimension of the marker covers should approximate the widest outside dimension of the markers. The inside height of the marker cover can be higher than the height the marker extends over the surface. The cover should rest on the surface and not on the marker, for preferred masking and stability. The weight and shape of the covers should permit them to stay in place despite various disrupting forces. After coating, the covers can be removed or crushed in place.
