Abstract
Description
[0001] A plastic canister (approximately 5 liters capacity) is filled approximately halfway with water (for stability when floating on the water surface). A snorkel with a connected hose is threaded through sealed openings in this canister. The hose should be between 3 and 15 meters long, depending on the needs. The lower end of the hose is connected to the diver's breathing mask, allowing the diver to inhale air from the snorkel, which protrudes from the canister, through the hose.
[0002] The diver also carries a canister filled with water, soup, juice, etc., which is attached to the floating canister with a rope. When descending, the diver can hold the second canister in his hand to aid in the descent. Depending on its contents, this can also be used for nutrient intake.
