Ultra-stretchable electrical and heat conductive arrangement
A wearable accessory capable of communicating data to actuators or from sensors is disclosed. The wearable accessory includes a conductor wire disposed in a moldable medium according to a predetermined pattern, the moldable medium being an electrically insulating material, the conductor wire terminating at an input and an output.
1. A wearable heat transfer accessory, comprising:
a tubular member disposed in a moldable medium according to a predetermined pattern, the moldable medium having a thermal conductivity coefficient suitable for exchanging heating to or from a subject's body, the tubular member terminating at an inlet and an outlet; and
a passive mechanism capable of heating a fluid if the fluid is introduced at the inlet and flows from the inlet to the outlet, where in the passive mechanism is a thermal reaction occurring in the fluid that can heat or cool the fluid.
2. The wearable heat transfer accessory of claim 1 , the predetermined pattern is a zigzag pattern.
3. The wearable heat transfer accessory of claim 1 , the moldable medium is an elastomer embedded with heat transferring filler.
4. The wearable heat transfer accessory of claim 1 , the moldable medium is rubber embedded with heat transferring filler.
5. The wearable heat transfer accessory of claim 1 , the tubular member is configured to deform from the predetermined pattern as the moldable medium stretches and contracts when placed on a subject's body.
