Detect Air Quality Inside The Cabin

Abstract: ABSTRACT DETECT AIR QUALITY INSIDE THE CABIN Typically truck drivers operate for long hours and at times in highly polluted environments like mines. Driver health and alertness while driving is key to avoiding accidents at work site. Sometimes air quality deteriorates inside the cabin, and this could lead to driver fatigue. Can you come up with solutions that can detect the air quality level inside the cabin and improve it, and at the same time alert the driver as well as fleet management about the vital health characteristics of the driver like heart rate, oxygen level etc.The transferred air will be sent for purification (12) which again will be sent to the cabin after the long process of purification and improvementsPrana Air Monitor(26) checks the quality of air and displays it. It can measure temperature, humidity, TVOC, carbon dioxide level and many more.

Specification

Description:Title of The Invention
Detect air quality inside the cabin
Field of the Invention
This invention relates to air quality inside the cabin
Background of the Invention
UUS7302313B2:An air monitoring system is disclosed having an air monitoring unit with at least one sensor for measuring data of an air quality parameter and a computer for storing the air quality parameter data received from the sensor. The air monitoring unit may use an installed or a portable system, or a combination of both, for measuring the air quality parameters of interest. A remote data center may be provided, and the data may be uploaded to the data center from the unit by a communications media such as the Internet. Information or instructions may also be downloaded from the data center to the unit via the communications media for controlling or modifying the function of the unit. An expert system may be provided with the air monitoring system for controlling the unit. The information or instructions downloaded to the unit may be generated by the expert system.
US20040031248A1:A portable, variable speed cabin air purifier operates independently of a vehicle HVAC system and is constructed as an armrest or console that can be placed on any passenger seat and held in place by the seat belt. The air purifier may also be strapped to the floor of a van or SUV, or be positioned in the trunk of a sedan with ducting installed into the vehicle cabin. A 12-volt DC blower can be connected to the cigarette lighter outlet or permanently wired in. Three to five replaceable packed bed filter media packets, a HEPA filter and a carbon impregnated filter may be installed. The filter media packets comprise filter media envelopes of a non-woven, gross particulate filter material packed with other filter media, including desiccants, sorbents, chemisorbents, pelletized and granular carbon particles, and catalysts, and are placed between grates and installed in a selected sequence.
None of the prior art indicate above either alone or in combination with one another disclose what the present invention has disclosed. Present invention is solution to detect air quality inside the cabin and improve it.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts, in a simplified format, that are further described in the detailed description of the invention. This summary is neither intended to identify key or essential inventive concepts of the invention and nor is it intended for determining the scope of the invention.
To further clarify advantages and features of the present invention, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to specific embodiments thereof, which is illustrated in the appended drawings. It is appreciated that these drawings depict only typical embodiments of the invention and are therefore not to be considered limiting of its scope. The invention will be described and explained with additional specificity and detail with the accompanying drawings.
Driver health and alertness while driving is key to avoid accidents at work site. Sometimes air quality deteriorates inside the cabin, and this could lead to driver fatigue. a cabin inside a truck with air quality monitoring unit (10) to check on the air quality in the cabin as driver have to travel while working in the cabin. The cabin also consists of exhaust fan (11) to remove the air from itconsists of computing unit(21), battery(22), inhale air quality(25), total cabin air qquality24), prana air monitor (26) and Wi-Fi or modem(23). Computing unit(21) manages all the data from cabin air quality to inhale air quality by the user. this unit consists of High Efficiency particle Arresting (HEPA) (35), a ACS(32), EBH(33) and Carbon titanium dioxide filter(34). A HEPA filter can remove the majority of harmful particles, including mold spores, dust, and other irritating allergens from the air.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The illustrated embodiments of the subject matter will be understood by reference to the drawings, wherein like parts are designated by like numerals throughout. The following description is intended only by way of example, and simply illustrates certain selected embodiments of devices, systems, and methods that are consistent with the subject matter as claimed herein, wherein:
Figure 1: This figure contains a cabin inside a truck with air quality monitoring unit (10) to check on the air quality in the cabin as driver have to travel while working in the cabin. The cabin also consists of exhaust fan (11) to remove the air from it.Figure 2: this figure consists of computing unit(21), battery(22), inhale air quality(25), total cabin air qquality24), prana air monitor (26) and Wi-Fi or modem(23).
