Abstract
An adjustable filter track system for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a filter track having a guideway and a bracket that form a recess configured to receive a filter and an adjustable angle bracket including a first panel and a second panel rotatably coupled to the guideway, where the bracket and the adjustable angle bracket are configured to hold the filter in place within the recess, and where the adjustable angle bracket is configured to rotate about an axis within the recess between a first configuration and a second configuration to accommodate different thicknesses of the filter.
Claims24
An adjustable filter track system for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system, comprising:
- a filter track having a guideway and a bracket that form a recess configured to receive a filter;
- and
- an adjustable angle bracket including a first panel and a second panel rotatably coupled to the guideway, wherein the bracket and the adjustable angle bracket are configured to hold the filter in place within the recess, and wherein the adjustable angle bracket is configured to rotate about an axis within the recess between a first configuration and a second configuration to accommodate different thicknesses of the filter.
An adjustable filter track system, comprising:
- a plurality of filter tracks, each filter track of the plurality of filter tracks including a bracket and a guideway that form a recess configured to receive a respective filter;
- a strut configured to couple to the bracket of each filter track of the plurality of filter tracks;
- and
- a plurality of adjustable angle brackets, each adjustable angle bracket of the plurality of adjustable angle brackets including a first panel and a second panel rotatably coupled to the guideway of a filter track of the plurality of filter tracks, such that each adjustable angle bracket of the plurality of adjustable angle brackets is configured to rotate about a respective axis within the recess between a first configuration and a second configuration.
An adjustable filter track system, comprising:
- an adjustable angle bracket including a first panel and a second panel rotatably coupled to a guideway of a filter track, wherein the adjustable angle bracket is configured to rotate about an axis between a first configuration, in which the first panel is positioned between a first bracket and a second bracket of the filter track to facilitate securement of a first filter within the guideway between the first panel and the first bracket, and a second configuration, in which the first panel is substantially even and aligned with the first bracket to facilitate securement of a second filter within the guideway between the adjustable angle bracket, the first bracket, and the second bracket, and wherein the second filter is thicker than the first filter.
