MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621005323 A) filed by Pdpm Indian Institute Of Information Technology, Design And Manufacturing, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, on Jan. 19, for 'terracotta based air and water cooling device.'
Inventor(s) include Bhattacharjee, Amrita; and Jain, Riya.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A terracotta based air and water cooling device (100) comprises an outer cuboidal structure (102) and an inner cuboidal structure (104) nested within, defining a water circulation space there between. A solar power system including a solar panel assembly (106), charging module (108), and battery (110) is mounted on the device (100). An air circulation system includes a plurality of intake pipes (116) protruding from a first side of the outer cuboidal structure (102), each having one opening in the inner cuboidal structure (104), and a cylindrical pipe (112) extending from a second side opposite the first side, housing a fan (114), wherein the cylindrical pipe (112) has one opening outside the outer cuboidal structure (102) and one opening inside the inner cuboidal structure (104). A water tap (118) connected to the outer cuboidal structure (102) dispenses cooled water, and a bottom valve (120) positioned between the outer and inner cuboidal structures (102, 104) allows drainage. The device (100) operates by charging the battery (110) using solar energy, filling the water circulation space with water through a top opening, activating the fan (114) to draw air through the intake pipes (116), circulating air through the water circulation space for evaporative cooling through the porous terracotta clay, and expelling cooled air through the cylindrical pipe (112)."
