Definitions

  • the invention relates to a garment for outerwear in the form of a jacket, in particular a cold or winter jacket.
  • Jackets especially cold or winter jackets, have the task of protecting the wearer from the cold.
  • a jacket is usually for a certain temperature range of the ambient temperature, e.g. -15 ° C to -25 ° C, designed. In this temperature range, the jacket usually provides the wearer with a comfortable wearing climate for heat and moisture inside the jacket. In other words, the wearer is then neither too cold nor too warm, and he remains warm and dry, i. does not sweat in the jacket.
  • the object of the present invention is to specify an improved jacket which is better suited, in particular, for the abovementioned purpose of use.
  • a jacket according to claim 1, which has an inner skin and an outer skin. Between inner skin and outer skin, a food area is enclosed.
  • the jacket has at least one partition. Each partition wall extends between the outer skin and the inner skin. The extension takes place in such a way that each dividing wall separates the feed area into respective chambers, generally two, located on either side of the dividing wall. In other words, the respective chambers are completely separated by the partitions, a direct connection between the chambers does not exist.
  • the jacket also contains at least one fan. Each of the fans is arranged either in the outer skin, in the inner skin or in one of the partitions.
  • each fan With respect to its conveying direction for air, each fan is oriented in such a way that it conveys air through the respective outer skin, inner skin or dividing wall in which it is arranged.
  • the air is not conveyed through the partition itself, etc., but rather through the parting plane or outer or inner surface of the jacket stretched by the partition, etc., at the location of the ventilator.
  • the fan is arranged, for example, in the outer skin, it promotes air between the outer space of the jacket and the respective, located on the inside of the fan chamber of the jacket.
  • a fan is located in a dividing wall, it conveys air between the two chambers, which adjoin the dividing wall at the location of the ventilator.
  • the fans serve to produce a desired microclimate in each of the chambers conveyed by the fans with air (in or out).
  • the fans perform a variety of functions, such as excess warm air of the jacket to be transported away from one of the chambers to the outside or to transport the heat distribution in the jacket warm air from one of the chambers in an adjacent chamber.
  • moisture for drying moisture (humid air) can be discharged from a chamber into the outer space or cold air to be introduced from the outer space into a chamber for cooling.
  • all the fans are individually and independently operable with variable, ie desired rotational speed or delivery rate.
  • the jacket includes a control unit which is suitable for controlling the fans.
  • a control unit which is suitable for controlling the fans.
  • all fans in the jacket can be centrally or jointly and yet individually controlled with regard to their functionality and operated in particular synergistically in order to be able to produce a desired micro-climate in all ventilated chambers which are ventilated by the fans.
  • the synergistic effect is achieved that different microclimatic conditions can be produced in different chambers, which is why a targeted microclimatic control is produced in the entire jacket or in all ventilatable chambers.
  • the jacket also contains at least one sensor which communicates with the control unit.
  • the control unit is then designed such that it can perform its control tasks in response to an output signal from the sensor.
  • the sensor can detect measurements inside the jacket or outdoors.
  • Conceivable sensors are, for example, heat, humidity, light or radiation sensors, eg for determining the strength of the solar radiation.
  • regulation in the controller can also be realized via feedback, i. the corresponding microclimate in the chamber in question is then e.g. adjusted to a setpoint.
  • a sufficient number of fans are placed in suitably selected locations of the jacket so that all of the chambers of the jacket are ventilated, i. be vented or vented by at least one of the fans.
  • all chambers of the jacket are ventilated.
  • this is achieved, for example, in that there is at least one ventilatorically operated connection between in each case two different chambers. This can either exist directly between the chambers or via the detour of an interposed third or more further chambers.
  • the microclimate of all chambers of the jacket and thus the entire jacket can be influenced by the fans.
  • At least one of the partitions is at least partially formed as a membrane.
  • Membranes are characterized by the fact that in their two directions of penetration directed perpendicularly to their flat side, they have certain selective, partly also direction-dependent, different permeabilities for different media, for example water vapor. As a result, for example, a preferred direction for the transport of a certain medium between two adjacent chambers created and thus accomplished a targeted microclimate control in the chambers.
  • the membrane functionality does not result in a complete climatic separation between the chambers adjacent to the membrane, but a functional coupling in the sense of the membrane. For example, then steam can pass from a first chamber through the membrane in a second chamber, but without passing water vapor in the opposite direction.
  • fundamentally different climatic conditions in adjacent chambers already by the Membrane functionality can be designed without the additional use of a fan, with the use of a fan in the membrane-containing partition corresponding membrane functionalities can be enhanced, supported or supplemented.
  • the membrane is a membrane based on nanotechnology. Such membranes are particularly effective to make different microclimatic conditions in adjacent chambers.
  • the jacket contains a rechargeable energy store for the fans and / or possibly the controller or sensors.
  • a rechargeable energy store for the fans and / or possibly the controller or sensors.
  • such energy storage can be recharged when needed with electrical energy and does not need to be replaced.
  • the chargeability offers the possibility to completely integrate the energy store in the interior of the jacket and to realize a charge contactless, for example by RF transmission.
  • the jacket outer and inner skin must not be interspersed with electrical contacts or cables or the like so.
  • the energy storage For charging the energy storage, it is generally e.g. known to remove this from the respective destination device, here the jacket, and place it in an external charger. Also, e.g. generally known to connect via a plug-socket connection a connectable to the mains charger with power supply to the energy storage. From the equipment of the jacket with a rechargeable energy storage is therefore still the task of designing the charging of the energy storage particularly advantageous.
  • the jacket can be placed relative to the charging station in a loading position.
  • the loading position is usually included Non-use of the jacket taken, but can also be taken, for example, by suitably sitting a jacket wearer relative to a car seat.
  • an energy source of the charging station can be connected to the energy store for energy transfer.
  • the jacket system thus makes it possible, for example, to place the jacket after being worn or while being carried while driving in the loading position to the charging station and thereby to charge its energy store. Until the next time you wear the jacket or get out of the energy storage is then at least partially recharged or fully charged and the jacket thus again in terms of their electrical functionality operational.
  • the charging station and jacket therefore have corresponding electrical contacts or devices which, when the jacket is placed in the loading position, are in contact for a possible transfer of energy.
  • the loading position can be characterized, for example, in that electrical contacts of the jacket and the charging station come into contact with each other in a touching manner.
  • the charging station has an energy transmitter for contactless energy transmission to the jacket and the jacket on a corresponding energy receiver. When placing the jacket in the loading position of the energy receiver is connected to the energy transmitter for energy transmission or connectable or is within reach of an energy transmitter (power source) of the charging station.
  • the charging station in the form of a garment holder, in particular hangers, mute servant (also gentlemen), clothes rack, etc., executed.
  • hangers, mute servants, etc. are usually designed so that jackets always rest in a defined position on them, as they usually support the jackets from the inside in the shoulder area or on a jacket hanger (usually a sewn into the jacket collar loop , Band or similar).
  • the above-mentioned contact between the charging station and the jacket can then take place, for example, in the shoulder or collar region of the jacket.
  • the loading position is achieved, for example, when the jacket with the shoulder area rests on the hanger or dumb servant.
  • the invention is applied to a jacket which, according to a parallel, not yet published on the present filing date European patent application of the present applicant (file reference EP 131 75 608.2 filed on 8 July 2013 ) is executed.
  • the jacket then also has the following components, which act synergistically together in the sense of an active climate control:
  • active storage element heat storage
  • the storage element can absorb excess body heat of the wearer when it enters warm environment.
  • the wearer returns to the cold, the storage element gives heat back to the wearer.
  • Temperature differences can be compensated.
  • the lining region of the jacket also typically includes a heat-insulating material, e.g. Down or plastics. Air duct and storage element replace at appropriate locations or at least a portion of the insulating material or are additionally present there.
  • At least part of the feed area is designed as an air channel.
  • air can circulate along the food area.
  • the air channel is continuous, ie designed as a single air channel, so that air can circulate freely within the jacket along its entire extension length.
  • Circulating "along" the food area means circulating air in parallel between the inner and outer skin, but not perpendicular thereto, ie, through the inner or outer skin.
  • the storage element is fluidly connected to the air duct in such a way that so that air can circulate between air duct and storage element.
  • the storage element is at least partially disposed in the air duct.
  • the synergistic effect is that air can be exchanged between different areas of the jacket covered by the air duct and so can exchange heat with the storage element.
  • excess body heat from all regions of the jacket detected by the air duct can be transported to the storage element and stored there, or heat given off by the storage element can be transported into all corresponding jacket regions.
  • a heat balance by the memory element is not only at the location of the memory element, but in all jacket areas, which are detected by the air duct.
  • a fan in the jacket can further improve thermal regulation. This happens especially when the fan is arranged in the flow path of the air duct, that is, the air duct passes through the fan. The fan then supports or influences the delivery of air through the air duct active, for example, by increasing or decreasing the airflow. The climate control will be further improved.
  • a plurality of fans may be provided along the air duct to ensure safe and effective air transport along the entire length of the air duct. Additional fans can therefore not only in the inner and outer skin and partitions, but also in other structural elements of the jacket described here. as may be provided, for example, the air duct to support their respective air transport functionality.
  • a heat reflector is arranged on that side of the lining region which faces the outer skin, which reflects heat toward the inner skin.
  • the shoulder portion of the jacket is that portion that covers the upper portion of the back and chest of a wearer of the jacket.
  • This aspect of the invention is based on the realization that the heat radiation of persons in the shoulder area is greatest. Due to the heat reflector, heat emitted by the body is reflected back to the body in this area and thus remains inside the jacket.
  • the synergy effect consists in the fact that the reflector in cold outside temperatures causes an additional heat effect, since the radiated heat as soon as it reaches the area of an air duct, distributed in the jacket and can be used to warm the body.
  • the reflected heat does not result in local overheating and therefore e.g. Moisture formation, since body heat from the shoulder area, as soon as it reaches the air duct, transported to the storage element and can be recorded there. This can also be improved by the use of a fan when the body heat is actively transported as hot air from the shoulder area to the storage element.
  • the inner skin is designed as an active transport element.
  • the active transport element transports moisture, which is present in the interior of the jacket or arises there during wear, into the feed area.
  • the middle lumbar region is the jacket area in which when carrying the lumbar spine of the wearer is.
  • the underarm area is the area of the jacket that is located in the area of the wearers armpits when worn. The invention is based in this regard on the knowledge that the underarm and lumbar region is that region of the jacket on which perspiration first occurs at the wearer when it becomes too warm. However, moisture in the jacket reduces its thermal insulation property in the cold.
  • the synergy effect is that the resulting moisture in the jacket at the critical points mentioned inside the jacket is removed and as soon as it reaches the air duct, is distributed along with the circulating air over a large area in the jacket. This allows moisture to diffuse out of the jacket over a large area.
  • the wearer stays dry when it is in (too) warm environment.
  • the next change to the cold the jacket still has its full insulating effect against the cold due to the dryness.
  • This measure also promotes a pleasant wearing comfort of the jacket in the warm area, as resulting body moisture is dissipated and can form any damp spots on the jacket or underwear of the wearer.
  • the next change to the cold area so remain no damp and thus unpleasant cold spots where the heat insulation properties would be lost.
  • this function can be improved or enhanced by using a fan by the fan supports the moisture transport by active removal of moist air.
  • the jacket according to the invention is based on the finding that different human body parts, ie body parts of the wearer react differently to high and low ambient temperatures or a corresponding temperature change. For this reason, in the development of the lining of the jacket, which is arranged in the feed area, and the inner skin and outer skin advanced modern fabrics were used. In addition, it was considered to position the materials with regard to their climate-functional technologies so that different thermal zones of the body are served differently.
  • the climate control in the jacket is thus based on the principle to create an air volume in the air duct and this circulate.
  • the storage element serves as a "motor" for air circulation. Through the use of fans, the air circulation is further improved or strengthened, which enhances the effect of the described synergetic effects.
  • the storage element contains a storage medium whose heat storage properties are based on a change in its state of aggregation.
  • a storage medium whose heat storage properties are based on a change in its state of aggregation.
  • An example of this is e.g. Waxes exhibiting phase transitions in the range of body temperature of a wearer (e.g., in the range of between 20 ° C and 40 ° C) where the state of aggregation is changed.
  • the waxes mentioned melt or solidify at these temperatures.
  • Such memory elements are particularly suitable for garments and therefore easy to integrate in a jacket.
  • Such storage media or storage elements are also commercially available.
  • the heat reflector contains a perforated, heat-reflecting film, in particular an aluminum foil.
  • the perforated film has good heat-reflecting properties, but the perforation also allows body moisture of the wearer to diffuse away from the body, so that the formation of moisture in the jacket is also reduced in the area of application of the heat reflector.
  • the lining region of the jacket is at least partially filled with an insulating material which allows air circulation in its interior, at least in one direction parallel to the inner and outer skin.
  • the insulating material then fulfills a dual purpose, namely on the one hand the actual heat insulation and on the other hand the formation of at least part of the air duct.
  • the entire feed area if it is filled with the insulating material, can be used as an air channel for air circulation.
  • Such an insulating material is, for example, an insulating material formed from air-filled microcells. Just for this embodiment, it lends itself, as described above, sufficient To provide many fans in the jacket to actively ventilate the entire food area.
  • the air duct extends from the storage element into the shoulder area and / or as far as the transport elements.
  • the reflected heat thus reaches the air duct directly and can be distributed in the jacket as described above.
  • the expansion of the air channel to the transport elements out causes the moisture transported away directly reaches the air duct and is dissipated or distributed over this together with circulating air particularly fast and effective as described above.
  • the inner skin is additionally designed as a transport element at least in a part of the back region of the jacket and / or in the flank region of the jacket.

  • the food area in the shoulder region of the jacket is made with a greater thickness than in the remaining areas of the jacket.
  • the thickness here is the distance between the inner and outer skin transversely to the expansion or extension surface. This creates a supporting effect for the heat reflector.
  • a particularly thick heat-insulating food area counteracts heat loss radiation here again.
  • the food area in the arm region of the jacket is made smaller in thickness than in the remaining areas of the jacket.
  • This embodiment in particular favors the use of the jacket for motor vehicle drivers, which require particularly great flexibility on the arms. Since, according to the invention, the heat radiation of the body is also comparatively low on the arms, hardly any negative effect on the thermal properties of the jacket occurs here.

  • the thermal insulation of the jacket 2 is based on a structure of the lining of the jacket 2 according to a zone principle, based on the distribution of the insulating material ("Valtherm®”) in the jacket 2.
  • This concept is called “warm save”: Considering several heat loss zones. In the back and chest area (which have the most heat loss) “Valtherm®” is supplemented by the heat reflector 20. In the arm area “Valtherm®” of lesser thickness d min is used to provide mobility. Whether in the car or on the road, “warm save” guarantees maximum thermal protection.
  • the "Warm save” concept based on “Valtherm®” fulfills the task of making jacket 2 as light and warm as possible.
  • the material “Valtherm®” fulfills the following functionality and creates the following synergies with other fabrics: “Valtherm®” is first processed evenly on the entire feed in the feed area 8, in the shoulder area 12 and in the lower area 14 of the jacket 2 additional layers of "Valtherm®” attached. Thus, the necessary, sufficient thickness or density of the lining is achieved, in which the functionality of the jacket 2, i. whose climate control comes into play.
  • the material "Valtherm®” interacts with additional materials: From the inner side of the lining in the back area 18 and in the shoulder area 12, "Valtherm®” is specifically brought together with additional substances. The synergistic effect with the substances used ensures the guarantee of a continuous temperature (climate) inside the jacket 2.
  • a heat reflector 20 is mounted in the shoulder region 12. This is formed by a film-coated fabric.
  • a so-called "Gamtagstoff” is a non-woven fabric made of 100% polyester reinforced with aluminum (in the form of an aluminum foil).
  • a thin film layer is applied to the top layer of the material and perforated. The film reflects the heat radiated to the outside from the shoulders of the wearer back to the wearer. At the same time moisture can pass through the perforation in the film (for example, by punching the film web) pass the film to the outside, creating no greenhouse effect.
  • a storage element 22 is arranged as a further substance in the feed area.
  • the storage element 22 in this case covers the lower back region 14 and the middle region 23 of the back and breast regions of the jacket 2.
  • the storage element 22 has the goal of actively compensating temperature fluctuations and is embodied here as material "Schoeller®-PCM TM". This material actively balances temperatures.
  • "Schoeller®-PCM TM” are specialty textiles containing millions of microcapsules filled with so-called “phase change materials” (PCM). They balance too warm and too cold temperatures for a personal comfort climate. The details are as follows: Textiles with "Schoeller®-PCM TM” contain countless tiny microcapsules filled with Phase Change Materials (PCM).
  • microcapsules respond to temperature differences by changing their state of aggregation from solid to liquid and vice versa.
  • the PCM in the capsules is set to a specific temperature range at which the phase change or change of the state of matter takes place, e.g. a temperature range between 20 ° C and 40 ° C. If the body temperature of the wearer or the temperature inside the jacket, or the ambient temperature, increases, the capsules store excess heat. When the temperature drops again, they return the stored heat to the body of the wearer.
  • “Schoeller®-PCM TM” offers the benefit of actively balancing warm and too cold temperatures, always providing a personal comfort climate. "Schoeller®-PCM TM” thus supports the normal insulating ability of a piece of clothing. Because even at very low ambient temperatures and at rest of the wearer whose body is kept warm for a much longer period than without using a memory element 22. In the opposite case, with strong heat influence from the outside, the body of the wearer is cooled because the incoming heat first is absorbed by the storage element 22 and so does not reach the carrier. For example, overheating inside the jacket during physical exertion is prevented.
  • ComfortTemp This is a novel material developed by the Swiss company "Schoeller”. These are based on NASA's proprietary technologies designed to protect against rapid temperature changes during spacewalks. This substance consists of microcapsules. These capsules are made with a special substance, including paraffin. Parafin begins to melt as the body temperature rises, changing its state from solid to liquid. A lot of energy is processed, so that "ComfortTemp” when used in the jacket 2 e.g. acts as follows: If the wearer is in a warm vehicle, superfluous body heat is stored in the material. As the wearer leaves the vehicle and enters a cold environment, the material releases the heat. The wearer senses significantly less cold or heat, as appropriate amounts of heat are buffered by the material.
  • the integrated "mPCM capsules” are therefore substances that can change their state of aggregation.
  • the most famous PCM is water. Depending on the temperature, it changes the state of matter from solid to liquid to gaseous, absorbing heat or releasing heat.
  • the body's temperature changes the integrated mPCM from solid to liquid and from liquid to solid. And again and again, without consuming.
  • the technology dates back to the 1960s, when space suits from NASA were to be optimized. Meanwhile mPCM are used in many industrial areas. During activities or in stress situations, the body heat of persons increases. This excess heat is stored by the mPCM capsules embedded in Comfortemp®.
  • the above-mentioned substances work as follows:
  • the heat-reflecting or film-coated material belongs to its function to heat substances, it differs by on its surface mounted perforated aluminum foil. When wearing the jacket 2, this fabric covers the shoulder area 12 and thus also the upper part of the wearer's back and chest. These body zones are particularly sensitive to cold, so the heat reflector 20 provides optimum protection against cold.
  • storage elements 22 in the form of "Schoeller® PCM TM" fabrics are attached at one or more locations. These cover the lumbar spine and the middle part of the wearer's chest when wearing the jacket 2.
  • the optimal heat-functionality of the lining or jacket 2 is produced at approx. -15 ° C to -25 ° C.
  • the additional substances explained below offer a well-being effect even at significantly higher or lower ambient temperatures.
  • a warm environment e.g., when boarding a car, subway, or tram
  • the inside of the jacket begins to rise in minutes, and the wearer experiences excessive heat and begins to sweat.
  • additional sweat and moisture-wicking fabrics come into play.
  • Another object to be achieved by the jacket 2 is to absorb excess moisture from the body of the wearer, e.g. forms when the wearer is in a warm motor vehicle.
  • the mesh structure has the ability to quickly absorb moisture and drain it from the wearer of the jacket into the feed area 10.
