Abstract (en)

An air management device may include three independently operated primary impellers 131, 131', 131", and drawn-in air is discharged through discharge ports 15'-1, 15'-2, 15'-3 provided in the front plate 15 of the housing 10. Louvers 141, 142, 143 installed downstream of the air flow passing through a primary air flow passage 102 provided in the primary space 20 of the housing 10 and discharge ports 15'-1, 15'-2, 15'-3 may be independently opened or closed to provide discharge of the air to the surrounding environment. Further, at least one retractable or pop-up fan 200, 200' may be provided. The air management allows customization of air flow. Further, the air management device may include a humidifier 400 installed in a first secondary space 22 partitioned from the primary space 20. The air in the primary air flow passage 102 is sucked through the air inlet duct 401 is mixed with vapors generated by a steam generator 407 using liquid stored in a bucket 419 to generated humidified air. The humidified air may be exhausted through the at least one retractable or pop-up fan 200, 200', which may be located in the first secondary space 22.
