Air Flow Extension System for Air Flow Registers

Abstract

An air flow extension system has a collection compartment with a lower section and an upper section having a plurality of tapered air flow accumulation chambers. An open interior space is located within the collection compartment. Each of the accumulation chambers has an air flow discharge opening into which air flow lines are removeably attached. The lower section of the collection compartment is fitted so that it can be snugly positioned within and over an open air flow register and remain in this position without the use of outside attachment devices. Air flows from the air flow duct through the register, into the upper section, and is accumulated in the accumulation chambers for ultimate discharge out of the openings into the air flow lines, where the air is dispensed to different locations at various distances from a register.

1 . A hot and cold air flow extension system for an air flow register, said system comprising:
 an air flow collection compartment comprising an open interior space, an upper section having a plurality of air flow accumulation chambers located over the space, each chamber having an air flow discharge opening, and a lower section extending down from the upper section and encompassing the open interior space of the collection compartment, said lower section sized to be placed directly within an open air flow register, with the upper section completely covering and closing off the register;   a plurality of elongated, open ended air flow lines; and   connection means for removeably attaching the air flow lines to the discharge openings, whereby the collection compartment is fitted so that it is snugly positioned within and over the open register and remains in this position without outside attachment devices; and, in this position, air flows through the register into the upper section, is accumulated in the accumulation chambers, is discharged out of the openings into the air flow lines, and is dispensed to different locations at a distance from the register.   
     
     
         2 . The air flow extension system as in  claim 1  wherein the accumulation chambers extend the width of the collection compartment. 
     
     
         3 . The air flow extension system as in  claim 2  wherein the accumulation chambers are tapered, such that they are narrowest at the rear of the collection compartment. 
     
     
         4 . The air flow extension system as in  claim 3  wherein the accumulation chambers are widest at the front of the collection compartment and the discharge openings are located at the ends of the accumulation chambers at the front of the collection compartment. 
     
     
         5 . The air flow extension system as in  claim 1  wherein the discharge openings are located at the front of the collection compartment and extend upward from the lower section. 
     
     
         6 . The air flow extension system as in  claim 5  wherein the accumulation chambers extend the width of the collection compartment and are tapered such that they are narrowest at the rear of the collection compartment.
