Abstract
A pillow uses a fan assembly in the pillow to cool the sleeping surface of the pillow. The fan assembly uses two fans to move ambient air through a middle layer of reticulated foam and then through air passages extending through at least one layer of foam. A bottom piece of foam is either semi-permeable or impermeable to airflow so that most, if not all, of the air moved by the fans exits the top of the pillow to cool the pillow. A chargeable power source powers the fans via a circuit board which may have an LED light to indicate the status of the power source.
