Abstract:
1. An air delivery apparatus for delivering air simultaneously to a plurality of individuals, each wearing an air ventilation garment for regulating the individuals body temperature, comprising: an air compressor; an air reservoir fluidly connected to the air compressor for storing compressed air via a first fluid conduit the air reservoir being downstream of the air compressor, the air reservoir being operable to be pressurized to a predetermined operating pressure by the air compressor; an air dryer fluidly connected to the air reservoir; an air distribution module fluidly connected to the air dryer; and a plurality of ventilation garments worn by individuals to regulate body temperature, the air distribution module operable for simultaneously delivering air to the plurality of ventilation garments, each of the plurality of ventilation garments comprising an air permeable inner layer with porous fabric material that provides air permeability through the inner layer, an air impermeable fabric outer layer, and plural air channels defined between said inner and outer layers, a first coupling arm that removably and mechanically connects the air compressor and the air reservoir, and further comprising a second coupling arm that removably and mechanically connects the air reservoir and the air dryer, wherein the first coupling arm and the second coupling arm do not provide fluid connections.
