A smart thermoelectric brain hypothermia thermohipoetherm and brain thermography device cools or heats the human brain from the outside quickly with temperature control by converting the electrical energy received from the vehicle battery or the electrical network directly into cold or heat through a flexible thermoelectric helmet consisting of N and P-type semiconductors without using any intermediates. The device is equipped with smart software, easily portable, and flexible, and has a fluid circulation system to perform brain thermography to the patient's brain from the outside in a short period of time and without harming the patient and the environment, such as the harmful effects from radiation and magnetic fields. The device can perform a treatment that can keep the brain at a temperature of 28 C.-30 C. At the same time, this device can diagnose all kinds of diseases by taking brain thermography.

A prosthesis heating apparatus for warming the entire prosthesis to prevent the prosthesis from withdrawing heat from the wearer's body, in particular, from withdrawing body heat from the bone to which the prosthesis is attached. The prosthetic heating apparatus can use cyclical timer switch or the disclosed dual switched circuit for turning an electric device on and off at set intervals.

Temperature of the extremities is a significant factor in temperature control of the body due to the presence of thermal receptors in the extremities. The brain uses signals from these thermal receptors as an indication of environmental conditions, and responds accordingly. Thermal monitoring of extremities and adjustment of extremity temperature are valuable in controlling body temperature, leading to a more optimum body temperature in an array of environmental conditions. Devices, such as a wearable article, and an apparatus to monitor the temperature of extremities, adjust the temperature of the extremities in response to the monitored temperature.

An electronic heating/cooling garment includes: a neck part, a collar (neckband), or an underarm part where a Peltier device (31) is placed; and a front body or a back body where a heating medium circulation path (35) and a battery (35) are placed, the battery (35) being configured to supply electric power to a pump (341) and the Peltier device (31). The heating medium circulation path (35) is composed of a flexible thermally conductive material having a tubular shape and holds a heating medium therein in an airtight manner. The heating medium circulation path has a first electrode and a second electrode on its outer surface. The first and second electrodes are configured to supply the electric power from the battery (35) to the Peltier device (31) and the pump (341).

A self-contained portable air distribution system for cooling an individual by the movement of intake and exhaust air flow streams over an individual. The system includes a portable rechargeable battery operated fan that produces both an inlet intake and outlet exhaust air flow streams that provides a cooling effect by evaporating body moisture as it passes over the body

A portable heat generating bandage, which includes an elastic bandage provided with a heat generating section, elastic sections, first fixing portions, and second fixing portions; a heat generating unit that is disposed within the heat generating section and used to produce heat energy; a control unit that is electrically connected to the heat generating unit; and a power supply unit that is electrically connected to the control unit and supplies the heat generating unit with electric power required to produce heat energy, thereby facilitating use of the elastic bandage to be worn on a position on the human body. The heat generating unit produces heat energy that is conducted toward the position of the human body to bring about a heat treatment effect. Moreover, the power supply unit is directly fitted on the elastic bandage, thus providing the heat generating bandage with convenience of portability.

Systems and devices for continuous heating combined with oscillatory magnetic stimulation of the ST36 acupoint and/or other acupoint(s) by noninvasive noninvasive heating and transcutaneous magnetic field stimulation, and applied to the treatment of several physical conditions.

A holding element is intended to be affixed to an active article of clothing at two spaced apart locations. It is provided with first electrical terminals for connection to an activation unit, which is to be secured to the article of clothing by the holding element, second electrical terminals for connection to a functional component of the active article of clothing and electrically conductive paths between the first and second terminals, the second electrical terminals being placed where the holding element is intended to be affixed to the article of clothing. The holding element is arranged to hold the activation unit between the holding element and the article of clothing between the two spaced apart locations and the holding element is flexible so that it shapes itself around the activation unit when the activation unit is introduced between the holding element and the article of clothing.

Disclosed is a system for regulating body temperature of a subject. The system includes: one or more sensors for monitoring environmental and/or physiological parameters; a multi-layered garment having a plurality of thermoelectric elements distributed throughout the multi-layered garment; a controller for receiving input from the one or more sensors and connected to the plurality of thermoelectric elements to systemically control the thermoelectric elements based on the environmental and/physiological parameters; and a battery for providing power to the one or more sensors, the thermoelectric elements, the controller or a combination of any of these. The system can improve worker safety and comfort in an energy efficient manner.
