Scope and Contents
From the Collection:
A collection of materials belonging to Ralph Keely Odor (1895-1987), a former researcher and engineer at OAMC in 1932. The collection contains a biography of R.K. Odor as well ledgers and notebooks written by him. Additionally, copies of photographs, patent documents and engineering diagrams are included, presumably for contextual information included in the biography. Odor is renowned for his creation of "Vornado" propulsion and his exhibition of a Vornado Plane in the early 1930's. He patented the air-moving system in 1934 and it was approved in 1938. He filed an additional patent for an indoor air circulation system based on the same concept.
