Drop in flush mount register system with slidable damper
A flush mount register system comprising: a register; a damper box; a substrate tray nested within the register via a plurality of struts; and having a continuous peripheral gap defined between the substrate tray and the register; a damper slidably mounted on the damper box for controlling air flow volume through the damper box into the continuous peripheral gap; wherein the substrate tray receives a substrate, and wherein the register rests on the damper box.
1. A flush mount register system comprising:
a register;
a damper box;
a substrate tray nested within the register via a plurality of struts; and
having a continuous peripheral gap defined between the substrate tray and the register;
a damper slidably mounted on the damper box for controlling air flow volume through the damper box into the continuous peripheral gap;
wherein the substrate tray receives a substrate, and
wherein the register rests on the damper box.
2. The flush mount register system of claim 1 , wherein the register comprises a first pair of longitudinally extending sidewalls and a first pair of laterally extending sidewalls which are joined to form a rectangularly shaped structure with a register top opening and a register bottom opening, wherein the first pair of laterally extending sidewalls comprises two portions with a shoulder defined therebetween.
3. The flush mount register system of claim 2 , wherein the substrate tray comprises a second pair of longitudinally extending sidewalls and a second pair of laterally extending sidewalls which are joined to form a rectangularly shaped structure with a base and a substrate tray opening, and wherein the plurality of struts are secured the first pair of longitudinally extending sidewalls at one end and to the second pair of longitudinally extending sidewalls.
4. The flush mount register system of claim 3 , wherein the substrate is contained within the second pair of longitudinally extending sidewalls and the second pair of laterally extending sidewalls.
5. The flush mount register system of claim 4 , wherein the damper box comprises a damper box top opening and a damper box bottom opening with an apertured bottom wall.
6. The flush mount register system of claim 5 , wherein the damper comprises a plate with a first of plurality of apertures.
7. The flush mount register system of claim 6 , wherein the apertured bottom wall comprises a second plurality of apertures.
8. The flush mount register system of claim 7 , wherein the plate is slidable over the apertured bottom wall such that the first of plurality of apertures are at least aligned, partially aligned, or misaligned with the second plurality of apertures, thereby regulating the air flow volume into the damper box.
9. The flush mount register system of claim 3 , wherein the base of the substrate tray comprises an air deflector for directing air towards the continuous peripheral gap, thereby increasing the air flow volume through the continuous peripheral gap.
10. The flush mount register system of claim 8 , wherein the damper box and the substrate tray are coplanar, such that the substrate is flush with a surrounding flooring.
11. The flush mount register system of claim 8 , further comprising an apertured grid is removably attached to the bottom opening such that a cavity is defined between the apertured grid and the damper box bottom opening.
12. The flush mount register system of claim 11 , wherein an air filter is retained within the cavity.
13. The flush mount register system of claim 8 , wherein the damper comprises a finger projecting from a top surface of the damper, the finger extending through the continuous peripheral gap, whereby a force is applied to the finger to cause the damper to linearly slide relative to the apertured bottom wall of the damper box.
14. A flush mount register system comprising:
a register;
a damper box comprising a top opening, a bottom opening and an apertured bottom wall adjacent to the bottom opening, and wherein the register rests on the damper box;
a substrate tray nested within the register, and having a continuous peripheral gap defined between the substrate tray and the register, and wherein the substrate tray receives a substrate;
a damper slidably mounted on the damper box for controlling air flow volume through the damper box into the continuous peripheral gap;
an apertured grid removably attached to the bottom opening of the damper box, such that a cavity is defined between the apertured grid and the bottom opening; and
an air filter retained within the cavity.
15. The flush mount register system of claim 14 , wherein the damper comprises a plate with a first of plurality of apertures.
16. The flush mount register system of claim 15 , wherein the apertured bottom wall comprises a second plurality of apertures.
17. The flush mount register system of claim 16 , wherein the plate is slidable over the apertured bottom wall such that the first of plurality of apertures are at least aligned, partially aligned, or misaligned with the second plurality of apertures, thereby regulating the air flow volume into the damper box.
18. The flush mount register system of claim 14 , wherein the base of the substrate tray comprises an air deflector for directing air towards the continuous peripheral gap, thereby increasing the air flow volume through the continuous peripheral gap.
19. The flush mount register system of claim 14 , wherein the damper comprises a finger projecting from a top surface of the damper, the finger extending through the continuous peripheral gap, whereby a force is applied to the finger to cause the damper to linearly slide relative to the apertured bottom wall of the damper box.
20. The flush mount register system of claim 14 , wherein the substrate tray secured to interior walls of the register via at least one strut.
