ABSTRACT:
A ventilated back support pad configured to rest atop an automobile seat is provided with a plurality of apertures on one or more of its faces. Forced air is channeled from a selected automotive air vent through the apertures via a flexible hose having one end connected with air passageways within the support pad. The opposite end of the flexible hose includes a funnel shaped attachment head adapted for releasibly engaging the selected air vent. This attachment head includes two locking pins which can be manually secured to a louver of the vent. In other preferred embodiments of the invention, the back support pad can be provided with a ventilated seat support rest integrally formed therewith and/or internally mounted electric fan. Further, as an alternative to the use of many apertures, a single enlarged aperture covered by a screen, or the like, can be utilized to allow forced air to escape from the support pad. In use, conforting cool or warm air is conducted from an automotive air vent through the back support pad and onto areas of a passenger's body, particularly the back, which are not normally contacted by air that is conventionally circulated within a vehicle.
