  Heat assisterUSPTO Application #: 20070122126Title: Heat assister Abstract: An electric heating device that generates its own power supply. When air current travels through ventilation duct systems; the air turns an air current driven generator, which produces electricity to energize its heating elements. The heat generator case provides heat or additional hair to a space. (end of abstract)

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of Invention [0002] The invention is related to the electric space heaters. [0003] 2. Description of Related Art [0004] Electric Space heating is typically used to heat or add additional heat to desired space. A typical electric space heater requires the use of utility electricity to operate, which makes a utility electric bill higher. Manufactures have yet to design an electric space heater, which doesn't require the use of utility electricity. In most cases, electrical space heating requires a large amount of current to energize the heaters heating elements. Electrical heating has never been an efficient way to heat or provide additional heat to a space. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0005] Most homes and buildings have an untapped power source. The ventilation systems act as a river or stream of pushing force, which can generate electricity. [0006] This device is based on a water wheel windmill concept for generating electricity. As the pushing force of air is forced between the blades of a fan, the force will cause the fan to turn. [0007] The fan is connected to the shaft of a generator. The fan will cause the generator to rotate generating electricity. This heating device is designed to be installed inside the return or supply ventilation duct system. [0008] The present invention comprises a wind driven fan, which turns a generator to produce its own heating element electricity. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0009] The invention is described in detail with regards to the following figures, in which like elements are referred to with like numerals, an in which: [0010] FIG. 1 is an exemplary diagram of a side view of the present invention [0011] FIG. 2 is an exemplary diagram of a bottom or an air intake view of the Present invention. [0012] FIG. 3 is an exemplary diagram of a two dimensional air out take view of the present invention. [0013] FIG. 4 is an exemplary diagram side view of the present invention with additional embodiments. [0014] FIG. 5 is an air flowchart outlining an exemplary block diagram of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS [0015] FIG. 1 is an exemplary side view of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the device has an air current driven blade wheel 4 connected to the end of the generator shaft 11. The electricity generated is stepped up or increased by a device such as a step up transformer 3. The increased voltage is used to energize the heating element or elements 10 located inside oil filled housing 5 to reduce fire hazards. The device components are mounted to a bracket housing 2. The housing bracket is secured within the ventilation duct. [0016] FIG. 5 is an exemplary Airflow block diagram to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, a typical heating ventilation system with devices installed FIG. 5a the furnace is typically the only heating source in a typical heating ventilation system as shown in FIG. 5d. A air blower as shown in Fig. 5c circulates air current FIG. 5g through the air ducts FIG. 5 F & E [0017] Typically at the end of the return and supply, ventilation ducts and vent registers are mounted (as shown in Fig. 5b) [0018] Typically, this device would be installed behind the ventilation registers. The device would vary in size based on the duct size and the amount of air current. In building ventilation systems, the device could be installed where needed. This device could embody a blade wheel mechanism (as shown in FIG. 4 17) as well as a voltage regulating mechanism (as shown in FIG. 4 21) to vary heat output. The device could also be embodied to have its own registers mounted for easier installation (as shown in FIG. 4 19). Continue reading...
