Problems solved by technology

[0003] As e-textiles are expected to have textile-like mechanical properties, the choice of electrical conductors for interconnecting electronic devices included in e-textiles is limited
[0004] In particular, electrical conductors suitable for use in e-textiles typically have relatively low electrical conductivity, which can lead to significant differences in voltages supplied to individual electronic devices included in e-textiles, resulting in the e-textiles non-uniform performance

Embodiment Construction

[0037] In the following description, the present invention is described with reference to an electronic textile in the form of a wearable display, which includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and local energy supply devices in the form of solar cells or capacitors, each local energy supply device It is arranged close to the light emitting diode that will receive its power supply. It should be noted that this does not limit the scope of the present invention, and the present invention is also applicable to other electronic textiles including other types of energy supply equipment. Moreover, other components besides LEDs can naturally be included in the electronic textile, such as various types of passive components or active components, such as sensors, actuators, etc.

[0038] Figure 1a A first exemplary electronic textile 1 is schematically shown, which has a plurality of segments 2a-d of a strip-shaped textile electronically arranged attached to a fabric 3. in Fi...

Abstract

An electronic textile (1) comprising: a textile substrate (3) comprising at least one textile substrate conductor (8a-b),and a plurality of electronic energy consuming devices (4) arranged on the textile substrate (3), each of the electronic energy consuming devices (4) being electrically connected to the at least one textile substrate conductor (8a-b) for supply of electrical power to the electronic energy consuming devices (4) from a main power supply (7). The electronic textile (1) further comprises a plurality of local energy supply devices (5a-d,12a-d,13a-d) arranged on the textile substrate (3), each of the local energy supply devices (5a-d,12a-d,13a-d) being arranged to supply electrical power to at least one of the electronic energy consuming devices (4) being associated with the local energy supply device (5a-d,12a-d,13a-d), in addition to electrical power supplied by the main power supply (7).

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electronic textile including a textile substrate and a plurality of electronic energy-consuming devices arranged on the textile substrate. Background technique [0002] Currently, research in the field of electronic textiles is very active. Although a large number of advanced electronic textile products cannot be found in the current market, it is expected that many new products will find their way to consumers in the near future. [0003] Since electronic textiles are expected to have mechanical properties similar to textiles, the selection of electrical conductors for interconnecting electronic devices included in electronic textiles is limited. [0004] In particular, electrical conductors suitable for use in electronic textiles typically have relatively low electrical conductivity, which may result in significant differences in the voltage supplied to the various electronic devices included in the electronic textile, ther...
