Solar Powered Portable Personal Cooling System with Dual Modes of Operation

摘要

The present invention provides a device that provides the wearer a personal zone of cooling effect. Specifically, a headwear is provided that incorporates a stabilizing and aerating platform to house and support an array of photo-voltaic cells that in turn power strategically placed and positionable personal variable speed fans. The present invention also anticipates and counters the power decreases typically encountered by photo-voltaic cells when operating in elevated temperatures. The present invention also provides dual modality of use to provide a smaller photo-voltaic cell array in situations where a sacrifice in power is acceptable to limit its' size.

主权项

1. A device comprising:
a) a headwear; b) a stabilizing mounting platform; c) a photo-voltaic cell array; d) an at least one repositionable fan and motor assembly;
i) wherein said photo-voltaic cell array is optimized for efficiency by providing air circulation around said photo-voltaic cell array to minimize temperature; andii) wherein said photo-voltaic cell array generates electric current to power said at least one repositionable fan and motor assembly through an electronic circuitry.
