Abstract
A cooling device has a shell made up of a first layer and a second layer. The cooling device further has a medium transfer apparatus positioned between the first layer and the second layer that is detachably coupled to a medium injection apparatus. The medium injection apparatus contains a medium such that the medium is forced by the medium injection apparatus through the medium transfer apparatus thereby altering a temperature of the shell.
Claims20
A device, comprising:
- a shell having a first layer and a second layer;
- and
- a medium transfer apparatus positioned between the first layer and the second layer, wherein the medium transfer apparatus is detachably coupled to a medium injection apparatus containing a medium such that the medium is forced by the medium injection apparatus through the medium transfer apparatus thereby altering a temperature of the shell.
A method, comprising the steps of:
- detachably coupling a medium injection apparatus to a medium transfer apparatus that is positioned within a shell, the medium injection apparatus having a medium that is compressed at a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure;
- and
- injecting the medium from the medium injection apparatus through the medium transfer apparatus to the shell.
A device, comprising:
- a shell having a first layer an a second layer;
- and
- means positioned between the first layer and the second layer for transferring a medium to the shell thereby altering a temperature of the shell when a medium injection apparatus is coupled to the means.
