In particular, an air diverter 205 of a different shape, e.g., a conical shape, may be separately constructed and formed and mounted to an air collimator. In certain embodiments, an air collimator 100 (FIG. 9) includes a conical air transfer diverter 205 associated with each fan to create a linear flow of air from the circulating air flow of the fan. The conical air transfer diverters 205 may be fastened to the air collimator 100 in any appropriate fashion, e.g., using a plurality of fastening tabs 202 for attaching one or more air transfer diverters 205 to the air collimator 100. In FIG. 9 the plurality of fastening tabs 202 of the air transfer diverters 205 are shown in a secured position when integrated into the air collimator 100.
FIG. 9 shows a perspective top view of another embodiment of an air collimator 100 including a conical air transfer diverter 205 for each fan and an integrated self-activating louver system associated with each fan, in accordance with the principles of the invention.
In particular, as shown in FIG. 9, an air collimator 100 may include a plurality of rectangular openings that are spread across the air collimator 100 as a grid. While shown with square shaped openings in the air collimator 100, the openings may instead be square, quadrilateral, quadrangle, rhombus, or even form parallelograms, in accordance with the principles of the invention.
