The plurality of pockets is located on the inner-surface of the compression garment and are strategically placed on the compression garment such that thermal therapy is enabled on at least one targeted area of a body of a user-wearer. The targeted area of the body of the user-wearer is at least one muscle, at least one joint, or a combination thereof. The compression garment may be worn underneath everyday clothing for all-day relief, enabling people to maintain a functional lifestyle.
WARMING TOOL, WARMING KIT, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING WARMING KIT, AND WARMING METHOD USING THE WARMING KIT
To provide a warming tool capable of more effectively keeping a human body warm for a long period of time during an emergency such as a disaster or rescue situation.
Provided is a warming tool (1) comprising a front face part (3) and a back face part (4) formed from a flexible fabric. The front face part (3) and the back face part (4) comprise upper end parts (3t, 4t), both side end parts (3s, 4s), and lower end parts (3b, 4b) in peripheral edge sections thereof, the upper end parts (3t, 4t) and the both side end parts (3s, 4s) being connected respectively, whereby the warming tool (1) has a bag shape that opens on the side of the lower end parts (3b, 4b). The upper end parts (3t, 4t) comprise a neck part (1A) formed in a center section thereof to a size that allows a head of a human body to pass therethrough, the both side end parts (3s, 4s) comprise arm parts (1B) formed on an upper part side thereof so that arms of the human body can pass therethrough, and the front face part (3) further comprises a plurality of pockets (6A to 6H) on a surface thereof for holding heating elements (100) that emit heat when brought into contact with air.
WEARABLE COOLING SYSTEM FOR BODY COOLING AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE WEARABLE COOLING SYSTEM
One variation of a system includes a garment insert: configured to be worn across a dermal surface; including a textile panel defining a grid receptacle; and including a grid structure arranged within the grid receptacle and defining an array of apertures. The system further includes a cooling unit including a heatsink structure: defining a base section defining an inner surface configured to contact the dermal surface; and defining a set of heatsink columns extending from the base section, opposite the inner surface, and configured to seat extending through the array of apertures. The cooling unit: is configured to wick moisture from the dermal surface toward surfaces of the set of heatsink columns; and includes a polymer frame, bonded to the heatsink structure about the base section, configured to abut surfaces of the base section to surfaces of the grid receptacle to flexibly retain the cooling unit within the grid receptacle.
Body Covering
A garment or body covering for heating selected portions of a wearer's body comprises a garment body, and pairs of arm and leg sleeves. The garment body has front, back, neck, right and left upper arm and thigh portions, a neck opening, right and left arm and leg openings and a center back zipper. The garment is made of fabric comprising interior and exterior neoprene layers having an intermediate layer therebetween. A plurality of heating elements, positioned in the intermediate layer, is in thermal communication with the garment body and arm and leg sleeves. The heating elements are powered by a plurality of batteries electrically coupled thereto. A plurality of control units operationally coupled to the batteries is configured to selectively turn on or off associated heating elements. A plurality of exterior pockets holds associated batteries and control units. The garment may alternatively be a shirt or pair of shorts.
Cool Strip
A cooling device is disclosed herein. The disclosed cooling device comprises a sensor or thermometer that indicates body temperature and contains an activatable cooler. In some versions, the disclosure discusses an activatable cooler comprising water and an endothermic salt. The device is designed to promote safety and comfort of the user-wearer.
Attachable and Detachable, Portable Electric Heating Device for Apparel and Methods of Use Thereof
An electric heating device and method of use for heating apparel wherein the electric heating device has as plurality of integral pad-like constructions, each having a plurality of substantially planar fabric layers with a proximal surface and a distal surface with respect to the user. A plurality of electrically conductive wires are embedded in or attached to the interior or exterior surface of at least one of the plurality of substantially planar fabric layers. The plurality of integral pad-like constructions are connected in series or parallel by the insulated wire and the insulated wire is removably attachable to a compact, light weight power source such that the insulated wire conducts electricity to the electrically conductive wires when attached to the power source. When the electricity runs through the electrically conductive wires, it produces heat in at least one integral pad-like construction. The compact, lightweight power source is stored in or on the apparel.
ARTICLE OF CLOTHING HAVING ADDITIONAL COVERINGS FOR A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL
An article of clothing adapted for use by a wearer, the article of clothing including an outer body and an inner body. The outer body includes a front sheet, a collar portion, a pair of sleeves, each sleeve extending from one side of the outer body. The inner body includes a front sheet, a collar portion, a pair of sleeves, each sleeve extending from one side of the inner body. The collar portion of the inner body is attached to the collar portion of the outer body. The inner body is disposed within the outer body. In one embodiment, a pocket is disposed on the outer surface of the front sheet of the inner body. In another embodiment, a pocket is disposed on the inner surface of the front sheet of the outer body.
Compartmentalized hand warmer
A compartmentalized hand warmer including one or more of a first flexible panel joined in face contacting relation to a second flexible panel and configured to have a compartment adapted to receive a warming element, a first annular element coupled to the first flexible panel, and a second annular element coupled to the first flexible panel in opposed relation to the first annular element.
