ABSTRACT:
An air control damper assembly for mounting in an air duct comprising a damper blade pivotally mounted within the air duct and means for rotating the damper blade from an open position to a close position. A drive system rotates the damper blade such that the system exerts a high torque and low speed at the beginning and end of the rotation of the blade from one position to the other and a low torque and high speed in the middle of the rotation of the blade between positions. The damper blade is locked in the open and close positions by means of a motor and gear unit. Electrical switches interfacing with a drive disk in the drive system partially controls the energization of the motor.
