Portable air pulsator and thoracic therapy garment

1. A thoracic therapy garment useable with an air pulse generator for applying pressure pulses to the thorax of a person comprising:

a body having a flexible air impervious member having oppositely facing sides and loop members joined to said oppositely facing sides of the air impervious member;

said air impervious member surrounding a plurality of chambers for accommodating air and air pressure pulses;

an air inlet connector secured to the body having a passage open to said chambers to allow air and air pressure pulses to flow into said chambers;

said body including an end section having oppositely facing sides; and

hook members secured to the oppositely facing sides of the end section of the body that coact with the loop members to retain the body around the thorax of a person, said body being reversible whereby the hook members on the oppositely facing sides of the end section of the body coact with the loop members to selectively retain the thoracic therapy garment clockwise or counterclockwise around the thorax of a person, whereby when the garment is secured in a clockwise direction one of the oppositely facing sides is located against the thorax of the person and when the garment is secured in a counterclockwise direction the other of the oppositely facing sides is located against the thorax of the person.

2. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 1 including:

seams dividing the body into three chambers; and

a divider located within the body operable to direct air and air pressure pulses flowing from the passage of the air inlet connector into said three chambers.

3. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 1 wherein:

said body has a longitudinal dimension and spaced longitudinal seams dividing the body into longitudinal chambers; and

a divider extended between the spaced longitudinal seams within the body operable to direct air and air pressure pulses flowing from the passage of the air inlet connector into said chambers.

4. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 1 wherein:

said body includes a top section having concave recesses providing contours for a person's arms.

5. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 1 wherein:

said body includes a plurality of holes to allow air to flow out of said chambers.

6. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 1 wherein:

the opposite sides of the air impervious member has a plurality of holes to allow air to flow out of said chambers.

7. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 1 wherein:

said hook members comprise a pair of hook pads located on each oppositely facing side of the end section of the body; and

fasteners securing the pair of hook pads to the end section of the body.

8. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 1 including:

at least one seam dividing the body into two chambers for accommodating air and air pressure pulses; and

a divider located within the body for directing air and air pressure pulses flowing from the passage of the air inlet connector into said two chambers.

9. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 8 wherein:

said body includes a top section having downwardly extended concave recesses providing contours for a person's arms.

10. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 9 wherein:

the opposite sides of the air impervious member have a plurality of holes located below the concave recesses to allow air to flow out of said chambers.

11. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 9 wherein:

the hook members comprise a pair of hook pads secured to each oppositely facing side of the end section of the body.

12. A thoracic therapy garment useable with an air pulse generator for applying pressure pulses to the thorax of a person comprising:

a body having a flexible air impervious member having oppositely facing sides and loop members joined to said oppositely facing sides of the air impervious member;

said air impervious member surrounding a plurality of chambers for accommodating air and air pressure pulses;

an air inlet connector secured to the body having a passage open to said chambers to allow air and air pressure pulses to flow into said chambers;

a divider located within the body operable to direct air and air pressure pulses flowing from the passage of the air inlet connector into said chambers;

said body including

a top edge having downwardly directed concave recesses providing contours for a person's arms;

at least one of said sides of the air impervious member having a plurality of holes to allow air to flow out of the chamber; and

an end section having oppositely facing sides; and

hook members secured to the oppositely facing sides of the end section of the body operable to coact with the loop members to retain the body around the thorax of a person;

said body being reversible whereby the hook members on the oppositely facing sides of the end section of the body coact with the loop members to selectively retain the thoracic therapy garment clockwise or counterclockwise around the thorax of a person, whereby when the garment is secured in a clockwise direction one of the oppositely facing sides is located against the thorax of the person and when the garment is secured in a counterclockwise direction the other of the oppositely facing sides is located against the thorax of the person.

13. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 12 including:

longitudinally spaced seams dividing the body into longitudinal chambers;

said dividers extended between said spaced seams toward the passage of the air inlet connector operable to direct air and air pressure pulses into said chambers.

14. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 12 including:

horizontal seams dividing the body into three chambers.

15. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 12 including:

a horizontal seam dividing the body into two chambers.

16. The thoracic therapy garment of claim 12 wherein:

the hook members comprise a pair of hook pads secured to each side of the end section of the body.
