COOLING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME

摘要

A cooling apparatus is disclosed, and comprises one or more liquid permeable enclosures, an absorbent material that facilitates controlled evaporation of fluid, and at least one tab extending from the enclosure. The enclosure defines an enclosed cavity and an absorbent material is disposed within the cavity. Upon contact with liquid, the absorbent material is configured to retain the liquid so that the liquid acts to absorb heat from a surrounding environment. The at least one tab extends from the enclosure and includes a first magnetic member and at least one second magnetic member. The at least one tab can be folded to bring the first magnetic member into magnetic attraction with the at least one second magnetic member to retain the enclosure adjacent some portion of a user's body.
