  • Patent number: 6409338
    Abstract: A headphone and fan device is provided having a sunglasses unit for receiving electronic audio signals from a modified portable audio device and transmitting the signals to detachable earphones mounted on the sunglasses unit. The sunglasses unit is further modified to couple with an airflow unit having one or more visor-mounted electric fans positioned to discharge air upon the user's upper facial area. Such air exits the airflow unit through a vent, that is a compressible pad that is circumferentially attached to the outer edge of a visor, the pad having channels about the same circumference, through which the air exits. A typical portable audio device is modified to store and transmit electric power to the sunglasses unit in a cord that simultaneously transmits electronic audio signals. This electric power is routed through the sunglasses unit to the airflow unit and on to the fan.
