DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring now to FIG. 1A, the present invention features a portable misting trailer system (100) for preventing bodies from overheating and regulating body temperature. In some embodiments the system comprises a trailer frame (101) having a first side bar (102) and a second side bar (104), wherein the first and second side bars are secured to a portable trailer base (106); a plurality of arched tubes (108) having an arched-tube first end (109) and an arched-tube second end (111), the first end (109) of each tube attaching to the first side bar (102), the second end (111) of each tube attaching to the second side bar (104); a plurality of misting heads (110) disposed on the arched tubes and fluidly connected thereto; a water system (120) disposed within the trailer frame (101), the water system comprises a storage tank (122), which is fluidly connected to a water pump (124), that is operatively connected to a power source (126), the power source being operatively connected to an on-off switch;
In some embodiments the arched tubes (108) are hollow or have interior channels that fluidly connect them to the water tank (122), whereupon turning on the on-off switch activates the pump (124) to pump water from the water tank (122) into the plurality of the arched tubes (108), whereupon water would exit the arched tubes via the misting heads (110).
In some embodiments the trailer base (106) further comprises a first wheel (105) attached to the trailer-base-first side (113) and a second wheel (107) attached to the trailer-base-second-side (117). In some embodiments the trailer base (106) further comprises a hitch system (112) disposed at the trailer base (106) front end;
In some embodiments the trailer-base-first-side (113) has a trailer-base-first-side first end (115), and the trailer-base-second-side (117) has a trailer-base-second-side first end (119), and further comprises a first-folding-back-frame (114) pivotably attached to the trailer-base-first-side first end (115) and a second-folding-back-frame (116) pivotably attached to the trailer-base-second-side first end (119).
In some embodiments the trailer base (106) is made to open by pivoting the first-folding-back-frame (114) toward the interior front of the trailer and away from the second-folding-back-frame (116), and the second-folding-back-frame likewise pivots toward the interior front of the trailer and away from the first-folding-back-frame (114), so that the first-folding-back-frame (114) comes to rest on the interior of the trailer-base-first-side (113) and the second-folding-back-frame (116) comes to rest on the interior of the trailer-base-second-side (117), thereby regulating access to the misting heads (110). For example, in a reverse manner the first-folding-back-frame (114) and the second-folding-back-frame (116) can be pivoted away from the interior front and sides of the trailer so that the non-pivoting free ends of the folding-back-frames swing to meet and close off access to the misting heads (110). In some embodiments the trailer system further comprises a cover disposed over the arched tubes (108);
Referring now to FIG. 1B, in some embodiments the trailer system further comprises an auxiliary misting station (200), the station comprising: a support base (202) having a first end (201) and a second end (203); a first telescoping arm (204) attaching to and extending upwardly and away from the first end (201) of the support base (202), the first telescoping arm having an upper end and lower end; a second telescoping arm (206) attaching to and extending upwardly and away from the second end (203) of the support base (202), the second arm having an upper end and lower end; a connecting tube (208) which connects the upper end of the first telescoping arm (204) and the upper end of the second telescoping arm (206); a plurality of misting heads (210) disposed on the connecting tube (208) and fluidly connected thereto; a hose (212) fluidly connects the connecting tube (208) with the water system (120), whereupon water would exit the connecting tube (208) via the misting heads (210).
