Air cooling device

Abstract

A portable air cooling device comprising an insulating box including a lid, the box having exterior walls and a floor, the exterior walls including at least one inlet port and at least one outlet port, the box having a multiplicity of dividers, the dividers defining a serpentine air column between the at least one inlet port and the at least one outlet port; and a blower in gaseous communication with one of the inlet or the outlet ports to move air between the ports.

1 . A portable air cooling device comprising:
 an insulating box including a lid, the box having exterior walls and a floor, the exterior walls including at least one inlet port and at least one outlet port, the box having a multiplicity of dividers, the dividers defining a serpentine air column between the at least one inlet port and the at least one outlet port; and   a blower in gaseous communication with one of the inlet or the outlet ports to move air between the ports.   
   
   
       2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the box includes side walls and the dividers extend perpendicular between the side walls in a staggered manner creating gaps alternately at the bottom and top thereof. 
   
   
       3 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the blower engages the outlet port and the inlet port is in an end wall. 
   
   
       4 . The device of  claim 3 , wherein the outlet port is in the lid of the box and the blower is engaged with the lid. 
   
   
       5 . The device of  claim 1 , further including a manifold for engaging the blower in the outlet port. 
   
   
       6 . The device of  claim 1 , further including a manifold and wherein the at least one inlet port includes a multiplicity of inlet ports and the at least one outlet port includes a multiplicity of outlet ports, the multiplicity of outlet ports engaging the manifold and the blower for engaging the manifold so as to draw air to the multiplicity of inlet ports, through the air column, and out the multiplicity of outlet ports. 
   
   
       7 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the dividers defining the gaps at the top thereof include a multiplicity of holes near the bottom thereof. 
   
   
       8 . The device of  claim 7 , wherein the box includes a floor having a multiplicity of small holes in the bottom thereof, communicating with a subfloor compartment, the subfloor compartment for receiving water from melting ice, the subfloor compartment having a drain therein. 
   
   
       9 . The device of  claim 8 , further including a manifold and wherein the at least one inlet port includes a multiplicity of inlet ports and the at least one outlet port includes a multiplicity of outlet ports, the multiplicity of outlet ports engaging the manifold and the blower for engaging the manifold so as to draw air to the multiplicity of inlet ports, through the air column, and out the multiplicity of outlet ports. 
   
   
       10 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the box includes a floor having a multiplicity of small holes in the bottom thereof, communicating with a subfloor compartment, the subfloor compartment for receiving water from melting ice, the subfloor compartment having a drain therein.
