UNDERPANTS FOR PATIENT WITH BEDSORES
The present invention is related to a pair of underpants for patients with bedsores. The underpants include an underpants body and a patch. The underpants body includes a front half portion, a rear half portion opposite to the front half portion, and a crotch portion corresponding to the genital of the patient with bedsores and connected to the front half portion and the rear half portion to form a lumbar opening and two leg openings. The patch includes a fabric layer, an absorbent layer and a waterproof layer. The absorbent layer attaches to the fabric layer, while the waterproof layer attaches to the absorbent layer. The waterproof layer is adapted to attach to an inside surface of the underpants body so that the fabric layer may contact with the bedsore parts of the patient and thus absorb the moisture of the bedsores.
MODULAR FASHION ACCESSORIES WITH INTEGRATED ELECTRONIC FUNCTIONALITY
The present invention is designed to allow for complete customization of a flexible item, e.g. a modular handbag system. The invention can therefore be outfitted for multi-uses, such as a personal handbag, diaper bag, backpack, insulated cooler, storage tote, satchel, laptop and work bag, or a gym bag among other uses, with handles or shoulder strap or other carrying options as applicable. Said bag system may comprise one or more outer bag shells which allow for straps and/or handles and/or modular attachments to be attached to it. An outer bag shell may house a modular inner bag outfitted with a series of fastener systems to allow for complete interior customization. Furthermore, the present invention describes a fully functional smart flexible item, e.g. smart bag that espouses a system for delivering power from a battery located in an outer bag shell, and/or in an inner bag, and/or in a modular attachment (e.g. pockets) to an outer bag shell, and/or an inner bag, and/or one or more modular attachments featuring technological components. Finally, the power delivery system can be applied to a variety of soft goods, most notably: clothing, outdoor gear, home furnishing covers, and personal accessories.

ELECTROADHESIVE ACTUATORS WITH EXTENDED LIFE
An adaptive wearable article can include an electroadhesive clutch secured to a textile and extending around at least a portion of an opening. The clutch can include a first conductive member and a first polymeric substrate applied to the first conductive member and having a stiffness greater than a stiffness of the first conductive member, and the clutch can include a second electrode assembly comprising a second conductive member configured to partially overlay the first conductive member. The second electrode assembly can include a second conductive member and a second polymeric substrate applied to the second conductive member, the second polymeric substrate having a stiffness greater than a stiffness of the second conductive member, wherein the first and second conductive members are proximate each other with the first and second polymeric substrates distal with respect to each other.
ELECTROADHESIVES FOR APPAREL FIT
An adaptive article of apparel can include a textile with an opening that is configured to admit a body part of a wearer, and an electroadhesive clutch secured to the textile and extending around at least a portion of the opening. The electroadhesive clutch can be configured to permit or inhibit changing a size of the opening.

COLD-WEATHER PROTECTION GEAR HAVING BATTING
A cold-weather protection gear is provided, which can prevent leaning of batting, can be stored in a compact manner as compared with a case where non-woven cloths are superposed, is excellent in heat insulation and in feeling on the skin and is also excellent in productivity. A sleeping bag 1 which is an example of the cold-weather protection gear includes a first core strand 11 and a first effect strand 12 located between a lining 2 and a surface cloth 3. A plurality of the first core strands 11 are aligned at an interval in a second direction Y and extend in a first direction X. The first core strands may be a bundle of plural pieces thereof for use. A plurality of the first effect strands 12 extend from each of the first core strands 11 to the periphery of the first core strands 11 and interlace with the batting 4.
