ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a body cooling garment to easily and effectively cool the human body. By pressurizing air or other compressible gases to a minimum pressure rating of 70 psi and channeling it by means of a tubing network that is incorporated into body garments such as a vest, head covers, and pants, the pressurized air can be transported and dispensed on the individual. Thus a two fold cooling effect is accomplished. First, initial cooling is achieved by the cooling of the pressurized gas itself as it rapidly depressurizes and expands through openings in the tubing resulting in a very cold gas. This effect combined with the flow of air and gases that is created by this expansion of pressurized gas in the vicinity of the body of an individual a wearing such a garment will evaporatively cool the body and compliment the cooling caused by the rapid expansion of the compressed gas.
