1. A portable, head-wearable apparatus for delivering channeled air currents directly onto the scalp and hair of a wearer, the apparatus comprising:
a control unit, being an enclosed casing having a casing access door, an air intake port, as fan for propelling and pressurizing in-taken air, a plenum which houses said fan, electrical wiring circuitry connecting said fan and an electrical power source, an on-off electrical switch, terminals, and an integral spring-loaded clip for retention of a direct current battery; a distribution tube having a first end attached in an airtight manner to an opening in said plenum for receiving air pressurized in said plenum, and a second end serving as an outlet for said propelled air; a headgear section comprising an arcuate, elastomeric comb, said comb having undulations which form a plurality of successively interconnected teeth and spines, said elastomeric comb further having an initial end and a terminal end; a flexible, continuous conduit, having an open end co-located with the initial end of said elastomeric comb, and a closed end, corresponding to the terminal end of said elastomeric comb, said conduit embedded interiorly to said teeth and spines, wherein said conduit further manifests an outlet through each of said respective teeth, said outlet ported directly from the conduit; a spring-loaded, dual-pronged retainer for retention of a battery; and a hollow connector, being as closed-in body consisting of a straight channel having an entry end and a discharge end; wherein said hollow connector is attached, at its entry end to the second end of said distribution tube, and at its discharge end to a point co-located with the initial end of said elastomeric comb and the open end of said conduit thereby allowing the channeling of air propelled by said Fan into said conduit and the expelling of certain volumes of air through said conduit outlets. |
