A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12007130B2) discloses a control module designed to regulate the operation of a damper assembly within an air duct system. The control module features a housing that can be attached to a metal register boot, positioned downstream of the damper assembly and upstream of a register vent. Equipped with control circuitry, the module can be electrically connected to the metal register boot, allowing for wireless communication with a remote building controller to adjust the damper's operation. The module also includes an antenna, a spring finger for electrical connection, and various components to secure it within the metal register boot effectively.

Furthermore, the control module includes features such as a curved outer surface to accommodate the boot's shape, a power supply cable input, and a flexible grommet for sealing and securing the module. It also utilizes the metal register boot as a ground plane for the antenna, enhancing its functionality. The patent details the construction of the control module, including a circuit board, power jack, control wire jack, and a magnet for attachment to the boot's wall. With a focus on efficient operation and secure installation, the control module aims to streamline the management of damper assemblies in air duct systems, offering a comprehensive solution for controlling airflow within buildings.
