ARTICLE OF CLOTHING FOR HEATING OR COOLING BODY OF WEARER

摘要

An article (100) of clothing for heating or cooling body of a wearer is provided. The article (100) includes one or more insulating layers (102) for providing padding to the article (100). Each insulating layer (102) includes one or more slots (104) for holding one or more thermoelectric modules (106). The one or more thermoelectric modules (106) provide heating or cooling to the body of the wearer of the article (100). Further, the one or more thermoelectric modules (106) are thermally coupled to one or more heat sink layers (108) for exchanging heat of the one or more thermoelectric modules (106). A heat sink layer (108) of the one or more heat sink layers (108) is a thin sheet. Each heat sink layer (108) is also coupled to one or more wicking assemblies (110). The one or more wicking assemblies (110) include a heat absorbing liquid, which enables cooling of the one or more heat sink layers (108) by evaporation.
