A heatable football glove that provides heat to a wearer's hand. The glove includes a body member that includes a pocket therein to accommodate a heating element of substantially the same size as the pocket such that the heating element after activation is introduced through an opening into the pocket where it is snugly received therein and conforms to the pocket in order to be retained therein substantially without movement during use of the glove. A covering member that is selectively movable between open and closed positions is provided for closing the opening and retaining the heating element in the pocket during use of the glove. An attachment member is associated with the covering member for releasably attaching or adhering the covering member to the glove to retain the heating element in the pocket during use.

An energy-saving heating wearable apparatus mainly includes a control unit, a heating unit, a temperature sensing unit, and a humidity sensing unit. The control unit controls the heating unit to continuously heat when an ambient temperature or a biological body temperature detected by the temperature sensing unit is less than a temperature setting value. The control unit controls the heating unit to stop heating when the ambient temperature or the biological body temperature is not less than the temperature setting value. The control unit controls the heating unit to stop heating when an ambient humidity or a biological body humidity detected by the humidity sensing unit is less than a humidity setting value. The control unit controls the heating unit to continuously heat when the ambient humidity or the biological body humidity is not less than the humidity setting value.

A structure for gloves capable of heating around a fingertip. A heating harness is fastened to a fingertip of a glove through a cloth strip fixing structure. The glove includes a hand back portion and a palm portion. The heating harness is wrapped with insulating material, and sewn in the glove through a cloth casing and a sewn fabric edge. A width of both cloth strip and sewn fabric edge are selected for heating effect and wearing comfort. As an interface of an external power supply, a wiring point is disposed outside the glove, so that usage is simplified. In addition, the present disclosure further includes a temperature controller and a power input wire. A method is to wrap a heating harness and then sew, to ensure production efficiency and product quality. In the present disclosure, a fingertip is heated efficiently and accurately, so that warmth retention performance is improved.

A heating liner for contacting portions of a person's hand or foot includes a liner material; plurality of heating members; a top surface; and a bottom surface. The liner material is adapted to contact the portions of the person's hand or foot. Wherein each of the plurality of heating members is formed from a plurality of elements chosen from a group of elements consisting of iron powder, water, salt, activated charcoal, and vermiculite. The plurality of heating members are exposed to air they produce heat. The plurality of heating members are attached to said bottom surface and spaced from one another. A combination of a glove and a heating liner and a combination of a shoe and a heating liner are also disclosed.

A heated glove having a glove structure and a heating assembly. The glove structure includes an inner body having an outer surface, an inner surface defining a cavity with an opening providing ingress into the cavity. The heating assembly has at least one heating zone. The heating zone has a conductive fabric portion, a heating mesh portion and a sensing assembly. The conductive fabric portion has a first circuit portion and a second circuit portion. The two portions have a first end across which a voltage differential can be placed, and second ends that are spaced apart from each other. The heating mesh portion extends between the second ends of the first and second circuit portions so as to be in electrical communication therewith. The sensing assembly has a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is positioned proximate the heating mesh portion to determine a temperature of an area proximate thereto.

Device for the treatment of arthritis and arthrosis of the extremities generally shaped as a case, in the form of a glove or a sock, which comprises: an inner layer made of a porous material (14); a second layer in the form of a paraffin-filled bladder (1) that covers the entire inner space; surrounding said inner paraffin layer (1), the following are placed: a teflon splint (2) equipped with means designed to straighten the fingers or toes (wires made of nitinol or a similar material); a very thin layer made of latex or an insulating material (4); and, finally, an outer cover (6); it may further be equipped with wires or coils (5) around each finger or parallel to the palm or the back of the hand. Moreover, it is equipped with a control unit (12) for turning on and for controlling the temperatures and currents to be applied.

The present disclosure provides for a thermoregulatory glove for reducing sleep latency. The thermoregulatory glove includes a gel pocket with a gel pack disposed inside of the gel pocket. A method for producing a convergence in body temperature of a subject includes heating the thermoregulatory glove, placing the heated thermoregulatory glove on a hand of the subject, and cooling the thermoregulatory glove.

The present disclosure generally relates to intelligent garments that provide thermal regulation in a variety of environments. The garments may include different layers such as a hydrophobic layer in direct contact with a wearer's skin surface and saturated with an aqueous mixture, a spacer layer, a reflective layer, and an outer hydrophobic layer. The layers of the garment may work together to reduce the metabolic expenditure of the wearer in extreme environmental conditions or during demanding physical activity. A variety of sensors may be displaced throughout the garments so as to enable the collection of data associated with wearers as well as environmental conditions. Wearers may control the thermal balance and other properties of the garments as desired.

A fine heating wire having a small diameter and applicable to various products. The fine heating wire is bendable, densely installed, and has high thermal efficiency. It includes a core formed with synthetic fiber material and a coil spirally wound around the outer portion of the core. The core connects one or more pairs of polyaramid fiber units. Each unit is formed by braiding dozens to hundreds of fine polyaramid fiber strands to maintain the diameter within 200-600 denier. The coil is formed of copper or copper alloy to withstand temperature rising up to 60 within five minutes when 3.7-12V power is supplied to maintain a resistance per unit length value equal to or greater than 0.5 /m. The diameter of the fine heating wire is minimized to be installed inside a slim fiber, and is bendable and densely installed to be applied to products, such as gloves and socks.
