Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to an indoor air quality and environment management system that is capable of taking the appropriate actions for ensuring the comfort and reducing the respiratory stress, particularly for users with specific health conditions.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The importance of indoor air quality and environment management is increasingly critical due to the significant amount of time people spend indoors, whether at home, workplaces, or public buildings. Poor indoor air quality leads to a range of health issues, including allergies, respiratory problems, fatigue, and long-term chronic illnesses, especially for individuals with pre-existing health conditions. Effective indoor environment management not only ensures cleaner air by reducing pollutants such as dust, allergens, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and carbon dioxide, but also maintains optimal temperature, humidity, and ventilation. This contributes to enhanced comfort, productivity, and overall well-being.

[0003] Traditional indoor air quality and environment management methods relied on natural ventilation through windows, manual cleaning, use of exhaust fans, and basic air purifiers. These approaches were largely reactive, lacked real-time monitoring, and were less effective in filtering fine particles or managing humidity, often resulting in inconsistent air quality and limited protection against health risks. Traditional methods lack real-time monitoring and automation, making them ineffective in consistently maintaining indoor air quality. They often fail to detect fine particulate matter or harmful gases, rely heavily on manual intervention, and cannot adapt to changing environmental conditions. This results in poor responsiveness, inefficient pollutant control, and increased health risks for occupants over time.

[0004] WO2020202236A1 discloses a method and related system for monitoring the degree of pollution of an indoor environment and for adjusting the action of the ventilation system in real time in order to improve livability conditions, or direct the user to take appropriate actions for the purpose.

[0005] US20170130981A1 discloses an air quality monitoring and management system adapted to be mounted between an existing thermostat and a wall in which the thermostat was previously mounted, or directly at the HVAC system. The air quality monitoring and management system contains various wires for connecting to both a thermostat and HVAC system, thereby effectively intercepting the signal between the thermostat and HVAC system. The air quality monitoring and management system includes air quality measuring sensors, a housing for mounting between the wall and thermostat, and a controller that supplies electrical signals to the HVAC system through use of the aforementioned wires to supplement the control of the HVAC fan in conjunction with the thermostat to help increase air flow in the affected area. The air quality monitoring and management system may include an air quality management controller mounted to an HVAC air handling unit, and wirelessly connected to sensors.

[0006] Conventionally, many systems have been developed for managing indoor air quality and environment but they lack in recognizing the users by analyzing their facial features for taking the appropriate actions for ensuring the comfort and reducing the respiratory stress. They also lack in removing poor-quality air from indoor spaces for enhancing air quality and promoting a healthier indoor environment.

[0007] In order to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, there exists a need in the existing art to develop a system that takes the appropriate actions for ensuring the comfort and reducing the respiratory stress and removing poor-quality air from indoor spaces for enhancing air quality and promoting a healthier indoor environment.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION

[0009] An object of the present invention is to develop a system that is capable of taking the appropriate actions for ensuring the comfort and reducing the respiratory stress, particularly for users with specific health conditions.

[0019] In any embodiment described herein, the open-ended terms "comprising," "comprises,” and the like (which are synonymous with "including," "having” and "characterized by") may be replaced by the respective partially closed phrases "consisting essentially of," consists essentially of," and the like or the respective closed phrases "consisting of," "consists of, the like.

[0020] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.

[0021] The present invention relates to an indoor air quality and environment management system that is capable of detecting the dust particles and taking appropriate measures to settle the dust, thereby preventing the dust from entering the room.

[0022] Referring to Figure 1, a front view of an indoor air quality and environment management system is illustrated, comprising a rectangular-hollow frame 101, a pair of foldable panels 102 mounted via sliding arrangement 103 and rotatable hinges 104.

[0023] Referring to Figure 2, an isometric view of an indoor air quality and environment management system is illustrated, comprising a chamber 201 attached to one side of the frame 101, a motorized linear slider 202 attached to upper and bottom portion of the frame 101, a motorized clipper 203 is attached with the sliders 202, a motorized pump 204 installed with the rear portion, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 205 installed on the frame 101, a wearable band 206 associated with the system, multiple exhaust fans 207 are built integrated with the frame 101, an electronic nozzle 208 is attached with a receptacle 209, water vessel 210 is embedded with the frame 101 integrated with an electronic sprayer 211, a storage box 212 is provided with the frame 101, a hydraulic pusher 213 is positioned at inner bottom of each section.

[0024] Referring to Figure 3, an inner view of the chamber 201 of an indoor air quality and environment management system is illustrated, comprising one HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter sheet 301 and at least one carbon filter sheet 302.

[0025] The system disclosed herein employs a rectangular-hollow frame 101 that is adapted to be mounted on opening of a wall surface of an enclosure. This frame 101 is typically constructed from material that include but not limited to high-strength materials such as reinforced steel or durable aluminum alloys, which provide a robust and resilient enclosure capable of withstanding physical impacts and environmental stressors. The opening of the wall surface is a pre-carved place for the window or the exhaust fan.

[0026] For activating the system, the user needs to press a push button which is arranged on the frame 101 which in turn activates all the related components for performing the desired task. After pressing the button, a closed electrical circuit is formed and current starts to flow that powers an inbuilt microcontroller to allow all the linked components to perform their respective task upon actuation.

[0027] The frame 101 supports a pair of foldable panels 102 that is mounted via sliding arrangement 103 and rotatable hinges 104 enabling zigzag folding of the panels 102. The rotatable hinges 104 enable the foldable panels 102 to rotate smoothly and lock into position while allowing the panels 102 to fold in a zigzag pattern. These hinges 104 are typically mounted on the frame 101 in such a way that each panel is attached to the hinge 104 by the sliding arrangement 103. The sliding arrangement 103 consist of a sliding rail and a motorized slidable member connected to the sliding rail. The motorized slidable member is attached to the frame 101 and sliding rail on both sides to make the panels 102 slide. The slidable member is attached to a motor which provides movement to the member. This means that the hinge 104 allows both rotation (pivoting around an axis) and sliding motion along the track.

[0028] A plurality of environmental sensors is integrated within the frame 101. These sensors are configured to detect indoor and outdoor air quality parameters. The environmental sensor includes a PM2.5 particulate matter sensor, a carbon dioxide sensor, a carbon monoxide sensor, a total volatile organic compound sensor, a nitrogen sensor, a sulfur dioxide sensor, a humidity sensor, a temperature, and a barometric pressure sensor. The PM2.5 represents sensor detecting fine particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 microns or smaller. This sensor typically works using laser scattering method, where a laser beam illuminates the air sample, and a photodetector measures the light scattered by airborne particles. The amount and angle of scattered light are analyzed to calculate the concentration and size distribution of particles in the air, providing real-time air quality data.

[0029] The carbon dioxide (CO₂) sensor often use non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) method. Inside the sensor, an infrared light source passes through a sample of the air. CO₂ molecules absorb specific wavelengths of infrared light. A photodetector measures how much light passes through the sample, and the difference indicates the concentration of CO₂. These sensors are widely used due to their accuracy and long-term stability. The Carbon monoxide (CO) sensor commonly use electrochemical sensing. The sensor contains electrodes and an electrolyte. When CO gas comes into contact with the sensing electrode, it undergoes a redox reaction that generates an electrical current. The strength of this current is directly proportional to the concentration of CO in the air, allowing precise detection of even low levels of the toxic gas.

[0030] The total volatile organic compound sensor (TVOC) sensor typically operate based on metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) technology. When volatile organic compounds are present, they react with the surface of the semiconductor material, such as tin dioxide (SnO₂). This reaction changes the material’s electrical resistance, and the sensor converts this change into a VOC concentration value. These sensors provide a general indication of air pollution from solvents, cleaning agents, and other organic chemicals. The Nitrogen sensor (often detecting nitrogen oxides like NO and NO₂) also use electrochemical method. In electrochemical method, nitrogen oxide gases interact with the sensor’s electrodes, generating a measurable electric current proportional to the gas concentration. These sensors help in monitoring traffic emissions and combustion processes.

[0031] The Sulfur dioxide sensor frequently uses electrochemical sensing. Inside the sensor, SO₂ gas reacts with the electrolyte and electrode materials, producing a chemical reaction that generates an electrical current. The amount of current corresponds to the SO₂ concentration in the environment. These sensors are vital for monitoring industrial emissions and preventing exposure to harmful levels of the gas. The humidity sensors usually use capacitive sensing. The sensor contains a hygroscopic dielectric material between two electrodes. As the humidity level changes, the dielectric constant of the material changes, altering the capacitance between the electrodes. This change is measured and converted into relative humidity.

[0032] The temperature sensor operates based on thermistors. The thermistor is made of a semiconductor that changes resistance with temperature. The sensor reads this resistance change and converts it into a temperature value, ensuring accurate environmental monitoring. The barometric pressure sensor often uses microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. These sensors have a flexible diaphragm that deflects under atmospheric pressure. The deflection changes the capacitance within the MEMS structure. The sensor circuitry converts this mechanical change into an electrical signal to measure the ambient air pressure, which is essential for weather forecasting and altitude estimation. The microcontroller is operatively connected to the sensors, configured to calculate an air safety index based on predefined pollutant thresholds and health data of registered users stored in a database linked with the microcontroller.

[0033] On the one side of the frame 101, a chamber 201 is attached. This chamber 201 is housed with at least one PA (Particulate Air) filter sheet 301 and at least one carbon filter sheet 302. The PA (Particulate Air) filter sheet 301 is designed to trap 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns, including dust, pollen, mold, and bacteria. This sheet 301 uses a dense mesh of fibers to capture contaminants, ensuring highly effective air purification in enclosed environments. The carbon filter sheet 302 contains activated carbon with a porous structure that adsorbs gases, odors, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the air. This sheet 302 works by trapping chemical pollutants within the pores, making it effective for removing smoke, fumes, and unpleasant smells, thereby enhancing overall air freshness and quality.

[0034] The microcontroller actuates a motorized linear slider 202 attached to upper and bottom portion of the frame 101 to translate a motorized clipper 203 that is attached with the sliders 202. The slider 202 works in the similar manner as the sliding arrangement 103 explained above. The clipper 203 and slider 202 are dynamically regulated by the microcontroller to manage extension and retraction of a specific type of filter sheet 301,302 to cover opening of the wall surface, effectively filtering incoming air entering inside the enclosure. The clipper 203 is controlled by the microcontroller to manage the positioning of the filter sheet 301,302.

[0035] The primary role of the clipper 203 is enabling the extension of the filter sheet 301, 302 to cover or retraction from the opening in the wall surface. The clipper 203 operates by gripping the edges of the filter sheet 301, 302, using a set of jaws that is dynamically adjusted based on signals from the microcontroller. When the microcontroller determines that the filter sheet 301, 302 should be extended, it triggers the clipper 203 to release the filter sheet 301, 302, allowing the sheet 301, 302 to move into position across the opening. Conversely, when retraction is necessary, the microcontroller signals the clipper 203 to re-engage and pull the filter sheet 301,302 back, neatly storing for the next use.

[0036] Upon filtering the incoming air inside the enclosure, the wind speed of incoming air is measured. For measuring the wind speed of incoming air, a wind vane is configured with rear portion of the frame 101. The wind vane, functions as a sensor to measure the wind speed of the incoming air. The wind vane consists of a rotating blade that is mounted on a pivot, allowing to move freely in response to wind direction. As the wind flows toward the frame 101, the force of the moving air causes the wind vane blade to rotate, aligning itself with the direction of the wind. Attached to the wind vane is a potentiometer that detects the angle of rotation, which directly correlates to the wind direction. The rotational speed of the vane is then measured which is proportional to the wind speed. This information is continuously sent to the microcontroller, which processes the data to calculate the wind speed.

[0037] The microcontroller actuates a motorized pump 204 that is installed with the rear portion to direct airflow toward the filter sheet 301, 302, ensuring effective filtration before air enters the room. The motorized pump 204 is controlled by the microcontroller to regulate the airflow toward the filter sheet 301, 302. When the microcontroller detects the need for filtration, a signal is sent to the pump 204, causing the pump 204 to activate. The motor within the pump 204 drives a fan, which creates a suction effect, drawing air from the external environment and directing the air toward the filter sheet 301, 302.

[0038] An artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 205 is mounted on the frame 101 and integrated with a processor to identify a user by analyzing facial features. The imaging unit 205 comprises of an image capturing arrangement including a set of lenses that captures multiple images in vicinity of the frame 101, and the captured images are stored within a memory of the imaging unit 205 in form of an optical data. The imaging unit 205 also comprises of the processor that is integrated with artificial intelligence protocols, such that the processor processes the optical data and extracts the required data from the captured images. The extracted data is further converted into digital pulses and bits and are further transmitted to the microcontroller. The microcontroller processes the received data and analyzes the facial features for identifying the user.

[0039] The imaging unit 205 is configured to track and identify user’s activities in real-time, including but not limited to exercise, sleep, and general movement within the enclosure, in accordance to which the microcontroller adjusts air quality settings, best suit the detected activity. The microcontroller is pre-fed with a user-specific profile database, stored with individualized health-related data for each recognized user. The microcontroller accordingly adjusts the airflow and filters, ensuring comfort and minimizing respiratory stress for users with specific health condition.

[0040] A wearable band 206 is associated with the system and embedded with multiple bio sensors. This band 206 continuously monitors the user’s vital parameters. The biosensors include but not limited to heart rate sensor, a galvanic skin response sensor and a heart rate variability sensor. A heart rate sensor typically works using Photo plethysmography (PPG) sensing. This sensor emits light, usually from an LED, onto the skin. The light is absorbed by the skin and underlying tissues, but blood vessels, especially arteries, reflect light differently based on the amount of blood flow. A photodetector measures the amount of light reflected back. When the heart beats, the volume of blood in the vessels changes, causing fluctuations in the reflected light. These fluctuations are captured and analyzed by the sensor to calculate the user’s heart rate in beats per minute (BPM).

[0041] The galvanic skin response sensor (GSR) sensor measures the skin's electrical conductance, which varies with moisture levels on the skin's surface. The sensor operates on the principle that sweat gland activity increases with stress or emotional arousal, leading to higher skin conductance. The sensor typically uses two electrodes that make contact with the skin. A small, harmless electric current is passed through the skin, and the variation in skin resistance (due to sweat) is measured. This variation is used to assess the level of emotional stress or arousal in the wearer. The heart rate variability sensor (HRV) sensor monitors the variation in time between consecutive heartbeats, known as inter-beat intervals (IBIs). This variation is a key indicator of autonomic nervous system activity and overall health. The sensor is often based on the same PPG technology used in heart rate sensor, continuously measuring the intervals between heartbeats. The data is then processed to calculate the variability of these intervals, which is used to assess the balance between the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous systems. A higher HRV is generally associated with better cardiovascular health and a more resilient autonomic system.

[0042] The microcontroller analyzes user’s health status to detect signs of respiratory distress or high stress levels, and accordingly the microcontroller optimizes environmental conditioning units pre-installed inside the enclosure to create a soothing and calming ambiance conducive to relaxation and comfort. For expelling the poor-quality of air from the enclosure, multiple exhaust fans 207 are built integrated with the frame 101. The exhaust fan 207 functions by utilizing an electrical motor to drive a set of blades, typically made of metal, that rotate at high speeds. This rotation creates a difference in air pressure, drawing air from inside the enclosure and expelling outwards. The blades are designed to generate a flow of air, pushing the poor-quality indoor air out of the space. Hence, ensuring better air quality and a healthier indoor environment.

[0043] An electronic nozzle 208 is attached with a receptacle 209 stored with a fragrance solution. The nozzle 208 is configured to continuously dispense the solution to neutralize bad odors. The electronic nozzle 208 for dispensing precisely controls the flow of solution to neutralize bad odors using electronically actuated valves and sensor. The nozzle 208 typically consists of a solenoid that regulates the opening and closing of the nozzle 208 based on input signals. This allows for highly accurate and consistent dispensing of the solution to neutralize bad odors.

[0044] The imaging unit 205 detects the dust particles near the frame 101. Upon detection of the dust particles, the microcontroller actuates water vessel 210 that is embedded with the frame 101 and integrated with an electronic sprayer 211 to sprinkle water in order to settle dust particles before the window panels 102 are opened. The electronic sprayer 211 consists of a miniature electric pump, a nozzle, and control circuitry. When the imaging unit 205 detects dust particles in proximity to the frame 101, a signal to the microcontroller, which in turn activates the water vessel 210. The microcontroller powers the miniature electric pump, drawing water and forcing through the nozzle at controlled pressure. The nozzle is designed to atomize the water into a spray, ensuring even and efficient coverage over the detected dusty area. This helps to capture and settle airborne dust particles, making the air cleaner and reducing the risk of dust entering the enclosure.

[0045] For storing different types of mask, a storage box 212 is provided with the frame 101, having multiple sections. A hydraulic pusher 213 is positioned at inner bottom of each section, which is operatively coupled to the microcontroller that pushes mask towards the user via an outlet located at end of each section. The hydraulic pusher 213 consists of a hydraulic cylinder, piston, fluid reservoir, and electro-hydraulic control valves, all operatively controlled by the microcontroller. When a mask is needed, the microcontroller sends an activation signal to the electro-hydraulic valve, allowing pressurized hydraulic fluid to flow into the cylinder chamber. This fluid pressure pushes the piston upward, which in turn drives a plunger beneath the stack of masks. As the piston extends, it pushes the topmost mask towards the outlet located at the end of the section. Hence, ensuring that the mask remains easily accessible for the user.

[0046] A GPS (Global Positioning System) module is integrated with the microcontroller to detect real-time location coordinates and synced with an internet module to assess local weather conditions around the enclosure. The GPS module operates by receiving radio signals from a network of satellites orbiting the Earth. The GPS module contains a GPS receiver chip, an RF front-end, and a high-gain antenna that continuously listens for signals from at least four satellites. Each satellite transmits data packets that include precise timing and positional information. By calculating the time taken for each signal to reach the receiver, the module uses trilateration to determine the exact position in terms of latitude and longitude. The internet module detects the weather forecast of the location and the microcontroller accordingly facilitates adjustments to indoor conditions based on detected local weather patterns.

[0047] For supplying power to electrical and electronically operated components, a battery is associated with the system. The battery powers electrical and electronic components by converting stored chemical energy into electrical energy. The battery’s terminals provide a voltage difference, allowing current to flow through circuits that supplies consistent energy to actuate and operate components like motors, sensors and microcontrollers, ensuring seamless functionality.

[0048] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the rectangular-hollow frame 101 mounted on opening of the wall surface of the enclosure where the frame 101 supports the pair of foldable panels 102 mounted via sliding arrangement 103 and rotatable hinges 104 enabling zigzag folding of the panels 102.
