Ventilation and Cooling System for an Office Chair

Abstract

A ventilation and cooling system for an AERON office chair is disclosed. It consists of an air mover, a power supply unit and a control switch. The system attaches underneath the seat of the chair. Airflow from the air mover is directed towards the seat to dissipate the body heat of the chair's occupant. The increased airflow cools the posterior and crotch regions of the person occupying the chair.

1 . A ventilation and cooling system for an AERON office chair comprising:
 an air mover attached to the chair;   a power supply unit;   a control switch.   
     
     
         2 . The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein the airflow from the air mover can be pointed in a preferred direction. 
     
     
         3 . The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein the power supply unit resides on the chair. 
     
     
         4 . The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein the power supply unit is rechargeable. 
     
     
         5 . The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein the power supply unit is capable of charging handheld communication and computing devices. 
     
     
         6 . A method for cooling a person seated in an AERON office chair by increasing the dissipation of the person's body heat as follows:
 attaching an air moving device to the chair;   providing the means to power and control the air moving device;   directing airflow from the air moving device at the person seated in the chair.
