Description

Warm vest {Warm vest}

The present invention relates to a warming vest, and in particular, the user can selectively adjust the temperature inside the vest in a state of wearing a vest having a warming effect in real time, as well as easy and convenient washing without a special washing means It's about a thermal vest so you can use it.

In general, the vest is mainly worn by people, such as environmental sanitation workers, traffic police, fishermen, hikers, fishermen, etc., which is easy to operate and requires warmth. Such a vest is relatively excellent in activity, but has a disadvantage of low thermal insulation has been applied for a number of inventions in Korea. Among them, as described in Utility Model Registration No. 0277852, in a conventional vest, the inner skin is cut into electromagnetic shielding fibers, and the outer skin is cut into normal fibers to seal the vest, but a heat generation part is generated by the power source between the endothelial and the outer shell. And the temperature sensing sensor is characterized in that it can automatically adjust the temperature by the control device.

Referring to FIG. 1, when power is supplied to a control device 4 embedded in the vest 2 using a power supply device (home power, vehicle power, and a portable battery), the control device 4 may have a vest 2. Power is supplied to the heating wire (6) built in, the heating wire (6) is configured to generate heat to increase the temperature of the vest (2).

At this time, when the temperature of the heating wire 6 rises above a certain temperature, the sensor detects this and stops the power supply. When the temperature of the heating wire 6 falls below a certain temperature, the power is supplied again. It is configured to be heated to keep the temperature in the vest (2) constant.

In addition, the inner shell 20 is connected to the connecting means 12 of the outer shell 10, the heat generating portion 22 is built-in connecting portion 24 to receive power from an external power source to one side of the heat generating portion 22 ) Is configured, and the connection part 24 receives an external power supply and transfers it to the heat generating part 22 so that the heat generating part 22 generates heat.

Here, the heat generating unit 22 is configured to selectively use a heating wire, a planar heating element and a far infrared ray bulb.

In this case, a plurality of coupling parts 26 are formed in all directions of the heating part 22 embedded in the endothelium 20, and the coupling part 26 is a hat 110, a sleeve 120, and a pants 130. It is desirable to configure at a position where can be connected.

In addition, the cap 110, sleeve 120, pants 130 are connected to the coupling portion 26, such as the heating portion 22 is built in the inner shell 20, using a heat wire, a planar heating element, etc. It should be, the end of the sleeve 120 is coupled to the coupling portion 26 that can be combined with the gloves 122, and also connected to the end of the pants 130, socks, shoes 132, etc. Engaging portion 26 is constructed.

The control device 30 is configured to be selectively connected and used in use in a state separated from the connection unit 24 to control and supply temperature control and power supply of the heat generating unit 22.

6, the control device 30 includes a power supply unit 32, a power control unit 34, a power boosting unit 36, and a central processing unit as shown in the configuration diagram of the control device according to the embodiment of the present invention. 37, the power output unit 38 and the display unit 39.

The power supply unit 32 is configured to receive and transfer power from the power supply device 40, and the power control unit 34 checks the remaining amount of power supplied to the power supply unit 32 to cut off if it is lower than the standard. If it is more than the reference, it is configured to supply.

Here, the power source reference means that when the battery power amount is large, the power is constantly supplied, but when the power amount is insufficient, the power supplied is weak.

At this time, the power control of the power control unit 34 is to check the power remaining amount of the rechargeable battery, when the power supply device 40 is used as a charging battery, the charging battery is controlled so as not to be completely discharged The life of the battery is to be used semi-permanently.

In addition, the power booster 36 is configured to boost and transfer the power supplied from the power controller 34, and the central processing unit 37 receives the power boosted by the power booster 36 In accordance with the temperature of the heat generating portion 22 is configured to supply and cut off the power.

At this time, the central processing unit 37 has a sensor that can sense the temperature of the heat generating portion 22 therein, the heat of the heat generating portion 22 to maintain a constant temperature of the heat generating portion 22 If the temperature is high, the power is cut off, and if the temperature of the heat generating unit 22 is low, power is supplied.

The power output unit 38 is fitted to the connection portion 24 of the endothelium 20, is configured to deliver the power supplied and cut off under the control of the central processing unit (37).

In addition, the display unit 39 is configured to display the remaining amount of power checked by the power control unit 34 and the temperature and use time of the heat generating unit 22 detected by the central processing unit 37 so that the user can check. .

Here, the operation to wear the thermal insulation vest 100 of the present invention is as follows.

After the outer skin 10 and the inner skin 20 of the thermal insulation vest 100 are combined and worn, the control device 30 is fitted to the connection part 24 formed at one side of the inner skin 20, and the control device ( When the power supply device 40 is connected to the power supply device 30, the control device 30 receives power from the power supply device 40 to the heating unit 22 embedded in the endothelium 20 through the connection unit 24. The power is supplied, and the heat generating unit 22 generates heat to increase the temperature inside the vest 100 to heat the user's body.

After wearing the thermal vest 100, when the temperature inside the vest 100 rises after a predetermined time, the control device 30 detects this to cut off the power supply, and after a predetermined time elapses, When the temperature inside the vest 100 drops, the power is supplied again to maintain the temperature of the vest 100 at all times, and the display unit 39 can check the remaining power, temperature, and use time of the current power source.

At this time, the heating unit other than the vest is connected to the built-in cap 110, sleeve 120, pants 130, etc. to the coupling portion 26 without a separate control device 30 and power supply device 40. It is configured to warm the whole body by the heating part.

In addition, the pants 130 and the sleeve 120 is formed to be connected to another coupling portion 26 is formed so as to be connected to the glove 122, socks, shoes 132, etc. with a built-in heating unit.

In addition, it is configured to be used by connecting to a product such as a product bag with a heating unit.

When wearing the vest 100 in the season do not need to be worn by separating the endothelium 20 from the outer shell 10, it is possible to wear all four seasons as a vest 100 regardless of the season.

When washing is required by wearing the vest 100 for a predetermined period, the outer shell 10, the inner shell 20, and the control device 30 are separated to wash the outer shell 10 only, and the inner shell 20 is washed. When washing is required to wash only the endothelium 20, it is configured to reduce the failure and damage of the heat generating portion 22 and the control device 30 of the endothelium 20.

As described above, the vest and the control device are formed separately to facilitate temperature control, and when washing using a washing machine, the outer skin, the inner skin and the control device are separated and washed, thereby causing failure and damage of the washing machine, the heating part of the inner skin and the control device. In addition, when supplying power by using a portable battery, it is very convenient to use a separate storage unit, and it is configured so that it is not discharged by checking the remaining amount of the portable battery (charging). Other garments do not have a separate control device and power supply, but by providing a thermal vest combined with a garment that can generate heat just by connecting, it is effective to improve the customer's satisfaction.
