The breathing device ( 10 ) has an inner section ( 14 ) having an inlet ( 32 ) defined therein. The section ( 14 ) has a motor ( 20 ), a fan ( 24 ) and a processor ( 22 ) disposed therein and the section ( 14 ) has an outlet ( 34 ) defined therein. The outlet ( 34 ) is in fluid communication with the inlet ( 32 ) so that pre-heated air is being be propelled by the fan ( 24 ) to pass from the inlet ( 32 ) across the processor ( 22 ), over the motor ( 20 ) and out through the outlet ( 34 ). An outer section ( 16 ) has a container ( 26 ) attached thereto that has a channel ( 42 ) defined therein. The channel ( 42 ) has a water-absorbing material ( 44 ) disposed therein for increasing the humidity of the air passing therethrough. A tube ( 28 ) is connected to the outer section ( 16 ) for carrying air from the channel ( 42 ) to a mask ( 30 ) attached to one end of the tube ( 28 ). |
