1. A personal cooling misting system comprising:
a) an articulating nozzle comprising:
an articulating nozzle first section that rotates 360 degrees in a first plane; and
an articulating nozzle second section that rotates 360 degrees in a second plane;
wherein said articulating nozzle first section rotates in both a clockwise direction about a first axis and a counter clockwise direction about the first axis
wherein said articulating nozzle second section rotates in both a clockwise direction about a second axis and a counter clockwise direction about the second axis;
wherein said articulating nozzle first section contains an integrally formed purge valve, a rotating valve knob, and a valve opening;
wherein said articulating nozzle second section is directly connected to a misting head;
b) a fluid reservoir having an interior volume to receive and house at least one fluid;
c) an electrically operated pump including an interior chamber surrounded by a first housing portion affixed to a second housing portion, said interior chamber housing an electronic circuit board and an internal source of power, and an access panel to accommodate access to the internal source of power;
d) a first feed tubing having a first feed tubing end coupled to said fluid in said fluid reservoir, the first feed tubing having a second feed tubing end coupled to and in fluid communication with said electrically operated pump;
e) a distributive tubing having a first distributive tubing end coupled to said electrically operated pump and at a location different from said second feed tubing end coupled to said electrically operated pump, the distributive tubing having a second distributive tubing end terminating in and coupled to said articulating nozzle;
wherein the distributive tubing a splits in two directions, a first direction continuing to the misting head and a second direction leading to a drinking line;
wherein said first plane is perpendicular to said second distributive tubing end and said second plane is perpendicular to said first plane;
wherein said electronic circuit board is configured to send commands to said electrically operated pump causing fluid to travel through the first feed tubing from the fluid reservoir to said electrically operated pump, said commands causing distributive fluid to travel through the distributive tubing from the electrically operated pump to the misting head, the commands causing the misting head to atomize the distributive fluid into misting fluid and cause the misting fluid to be variably actuated with a misting distribution pattern, with the misting distribution pattern exhibiting at least one of a constant misting emission or an intermittent misting emission;
f) a key fob to wirelessly communicate and manipulate said electrically operated pump;
g) a mechanical securing mechanism to secure said misting head to an article of clothing;
wherein a misting spray is configured to be sprayed from said misting head;
wherein said valve opening of said purge valve opens when said valve knob is rotated; and
whereby said key fob controls the misting spray to be sprayed.
 
4. A personal cooling misting system comprising:
a) an articulating nozzle;
wherein said articulating nozzle has an articulating nozzle first section that rotates 360 degrees in a first plane and an articulating nozzle second section that rotates 360 degrees in a second plane;
wherein said articulating nozzle first section contains an integrally formed purge valve, a rotating valve knob, and a valve opening;
wherein said articulating nozzle second section is directly connected to a misting head;
b) a fluid reservoir having an interior volume to receive and house at least one fluid;
c) an electrically operated pump including an interior chamber surrounded by a first housing portion affixed to a second housing portion, said interior chamber housing an electronic circuit board and an internal source of power, and an access panel to accommodate access to the internal source of power;
d) a first feed tubing having a first feed tubing end coupled to said first feed tubing coupling and in fluid communication with said fluid in said fluid reservoir, the first feed tubing having a second feed tubing end coupled to and in fluid communication with said electrically operated pump;
e) a distributive tubing having a first distributive tubing end coupled to said electrically operated pump and at a location different from said second feed tubing end, the distributive tubing having a second distributive tubing end terminating in and coupled to said articulating nozzle;
wherein said first plane is perpendicular to said second distributive tubing end and said second plane is perpendicular to said first plane;
wherein said electronic circuit board is configured to send commands to said electrically operated pump causing fluid to travel through the first feed tubing from the fluid reservoir to said electrically operated pump, said commands causing distributive fluid to travel through the distributive tubing from the electrically operated pump to the misting head, the commands causing the misting head to atomize the distributive fluid into misting fluid and cause the misting fluid to be variably actuated with a misting distribution pattern, with the misting distribution pattern exhibiting at least one of a constant misting or intermittent misting;
f) a key fob to wirelessly communicate and manipulate said electrically operated pump;
g) a mechanical securing mechanism to secure said misting head to an article of clothing;
wherein a misting spray is configured to be sprayed from said misting head;
wherein said valve opening of said purge valve opens when said valve knob is rotated; and
whereby said key fob controls the misting spray to be.
 
10. A personal cooling misting system comprising:
