Patent application title: Carbon monoxide home exhaust system
Abstract:
This invention will protect creatures in buildings from deadly carbon
monoxide gases emitted from various devices such as home heating systems,
hot water heaters, leaky chimneys, stoves, cooking grilles and
automobiles. It is designed to automatically remove carbon monoxide from
buildings when dangerous levels have been detected. It will work
independently or in conjunction with other carbon monoxide detection
systems. For example: If an automobile has been intentionally,
unintentionally or unsuspectedly started in an attached garage; the
system will receive a message indicating the dangerous level of carbon
monoxide, and automatically begin exhausting the carbon monoxide from the
building, while supplying fresh air from outside. The system will not
stop exhausting until reset, and would work in conjunction with alarms.
For owner unoccupied buildings, pets would be spared harm from carbon
monoxide gases. This system can be independently installed, or integrated
within the building ventilation system.
Claims:
1. I claim my invention as "a device(s) and apparatus(es) utilized
together to automatically evacuate dangerous carbon monoxide gas(es) from
structures inhabited by human(s) and/or animal(s), thereby preserving
life.
Description:
[0001]Over two thousand people die each year from intentional and
unintentional carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is an odorless
gas emitted from defective chimneys, heaters, hot water heaters,
automobiles etc. . . . The "Carbon Monoxide Home Exhaust System" is a
system invented by Alfred Wright to protect humans and animals from
carbon monoxide poisoning in buildings. Mr. Wright came up with the
invention, after reading a news article of a man who was killed by carbon
monoxide poisoning after mistakenly leaving an automobile running in a
garage attached to his home. Mr. Wright realized that if there were an
automatic system in place that would evacuate deadly carbon monoxide gas
from a building, life could be saved. The system can be independent or
conjunctive with other devices or equipment. Once deadly levels of carbon
monoxide levels are detected, ventilation would remove the tainted carbon
monoxide gas, while introducing clean fresh air from outside, thus
preventing the death of occupants. The system would only shut down upon
being reset manually, and would work in conjunction with alarms.
[0002]Depending upon the application, the system would consist of fans,
duct work, sensors, back up batteries, reset button, and vents. The ideal
installation would occur at initial construction, but could be
post-construction. The system is to be notified by an external or
internal carbon monoxide detector, to begin running. Once notified to
run, fans would remove carbon monoxide tainted air from compartments of
the building, while simultaneously introducing fresh air from outside.
[0003]Safety is the intended result of this invention. Saving the lives of
persons as well as pets. Pets cannot respond to a Carbon Monoxide Alarm,
but the "Carbon Monoxide Home Exhaust System", will assist in saving
their lives, when their owners are not home.
