Abstract
A vent assembly (200) comprises a housing (13), a flow conduit (10) and a weather hood (12), the flow conduit (10) having a proximal end (10A) for being fluidly connected to a source of material and an open distal end (10B), the housing (13) having a base portion (13A), a side wall portion (13B), and a top portion (13C), the flow conduit (10) comprising a baffle (12E) located between the base portion (13A) and the top portion (13C) of the housing (13) to direct fluid flowing from the flow conduit (10) towards the weather hood (12) and through the housing (13) in a direction towards the top portion (13C) of the housing (13).
Claims17
A vent assembly comprising a housing, a flow conduit and a weather hood, the flow conduit having a proximal end for being fluidly connected to a source of material and an open distal end, the housing having a base portion, a side wall portion, and a top portion, the flow conduit comprising a baffle located between the base portion and the top portion of the housing to direct fluid flowing from the flow conduit towards the weather hood and through the housing in a direction towards the top portion of the housing, wherein the weather hood has a transverse dimension greater than a transverse dimension of a distal edge of the baffle, wherein the baffle extends beyond the distal end of the flow conduit.
A vent assembly comprising a housing, a flow conduit and a weather hood, the flow conduit having a proximal end for being fluidly connected to a source of material and an open distal end, the housing having a base portion, a side wall portion, and a top portion, the flow conduit comprising a baffle located between the base portion and the top portion of the housing to direct fluid flowing from the flow conduit towards the weather hood and through the housing in a direction towards the top portion of the housing, wherein the weather hood has a transverse dimension greater than a transverse dimension of a distal edge of the baffle, wherein an open top of the housing is covered, at least in part by a gauze or mesh or plate comprises perforations or apertures.
A vent assembly comprising a housing, a flow conduit and a weather hood, the flow conduit having a proximal end for being fluidly connected to a source of material and an open distal end, the housing having a base portion, a side wall portion, and a top portion, the flow conduit comprising a baffle located between the base portion and the top portion of the housing to direct fluid flowing from the flow conduit towards the weather hood and through the housing in a direction towards the top portion of the housing, wherein the weather hood has a transverse dimension greater than a transverse dimension of a distal edge of the baffle, wherein the weather hood has a depending wall formed at or towards its periphery and the depending wall is provided with a secondary baffle, which is outwardly directed.
