Abstract
A wind diverter for deflecting incoming wind away from the discharge end of a ventilator fan of the type which ventilates agricultural buildings. The diverter includes a conical wind deflector which is mounted to an exhaust hood of the fan by rigid brackets. The deflector is in line with the exhaust hood and spaced away from its discharge end to permit exhaust of air from the hood. Incoming wind is deflected past the periphery of the deflector to create a low pressure region which assists the discharge of air from the exhaust hood.
