Clothing having cooling function or warming function
View Patent ↗The clothing having a frontal land and a rear land includes: a thermal storage unit provided on at least one portion of the frontal land of the clothing; and a planar thermoconductive sheet located in a planar between the frontal land and the rear land, the planar thermoconductive sheet having a thermal conduction path to the thermal storage unit, and the planar thermoconductive sheet being higher in thermoconductivity than the frontal land and the rear land. The planar thermoconductive sheet includes a resin component and graphite particles. Basal plane of each graphite particle is parallel to the direction of the plane of the planar thermoconductive sheet.
1. An article of clothing having a frontal land and a rear land, comprising:
a thermal storage unit provided on at least one portion of the frontal land side of the clothing; and
one plane thermoconductive sheet located in a plane between the frontal land and the rear land, the one planar thermoconductive sheet having a thermal conduction path to the thermal storage unit, and the one planar thermoconductive sheet is formed of a material having a higher thermoconductivity than the frontal land and the rear land,
wherein the one planar thermoconductive sheet includes a resin component and scaly graphite particles,
wherein the one planar thermoconductive sheet has four branches connected by first and second base regions,
wherein the four branches of the one planar thermoconductive sheet correspond to first and second branches extending from the first base region, and third and fourth branches extending from the second base region,
wherein the thermal storage unit comprises:
a first thermal storage unit that is in contact with the first base region; and
a second thermal storage unit that is in contact with the second base region, and
wherein the first, second, third and fourth branches extend in different directions from each other.
2. The article of clothing according to claim 1 ,
wherein each of the first and second branches has a length shorter than the third and fourth branches, and each of the first and second branches has a width wider than the third and fourth branches.
3. The article of clothing according to claim 1 , wherein an angle θ between a basal plane of each of the scaly graphite particles and a plane of the one planar theremoconductive sheet is 1° or more and 30° or less on average.
4. The article of clothing according to claim 1 , wherein an angle θ between a basal plane of each of the scaly graphite particles and a plane of the one planar theremoconductive sheet is 13° or more and 16° or less on average.
5. The article of clothing according to claim 1 ,
wherein each of the first and second branches has a width wider than the third and fourth branches.
6. The article of clothing according to claim 5 , wherein the first thermal storage unit is in direct contact with the first base region, and wherein the second thermal storage unit is in direct contact with the second base region.
