Abstract
An atmospheric control apparatus for use in a forced air ventilation duct is described having an inlet means to receive air from the inside of said duct attached to a replaceable deodorant cartridge, which is itself attached to outlet means terminating within the duct downstream of the inlet to supply an atmospheric control substance such as an odorant or deodorant into the air stream. Air flow through the cartridge is accomplished by the differential pressures present at the inlet and outlet means in the air duct.
Claims6
An atmospheric control apparatus for use in a forced air ventilation duct, said control apparatus comprising air inlet means having a first end in fluid communication with the interior of said duct, a second end positioned externally of said duct, and an auxiliary opening positioned externally of said duct, means for optionally closing said auxiliarly opening, means for optionally closing said first end from fluid communication with the interior of said duct, outlet means positioned downstream from said air inlet means and having a first end in fluid communication with the interior of said duct and a second end positioned externally of said duct, and dispensing means interposed between said second end of said inlet means and said second end of said outlet means for receiving air from said inlet means and dispensing neutralizing vapor or odorant into said outlet means, whereby said atmospheric control apparatus is selectively operable with said first end of said air inlet means being in fluid communication with the interior of said duct and said auxiliary opening being closed or is operable with said auxiliary opening being in communication with the environment external to said duct and said first end of said air inlet means being closed.
