Abstract

The invention discloses a wearable type thermoelectric power generation apparatus designed for power supply to low-power human body diagnosing equipment. The apparatus includes a thermoelectric power generation module, a flexible supercapacitor, an MPPT controller, an external interface and a wearable garment carrier. The thermoelectric power generation module utilizes the temperature difference between a human body and an external environment and converts the heat into electric energy. The flexible supercapacitor is used to store the generated electric energy. The MPPT controller utilizes the P & O algorithm to control the stable electric energy output of the flexible supercapacitor so that electric energy can be suitable to be provided to external electric appliances. The external interface is used to output the electric energy. According to the invention, the thermoelectric power generation module is embedded into the hole reserved in the wearable garment carrier. The heating end of the thermoelectric power generation module is in contact with the skin of a human body while the cold end is in contact with an external environment. The flexible supercapactior, the MPPT controller and the external interface are arranged in the sandwiched layer of the wearable garment carrier. In the invention, a semiconductor thermoelectric power generation module is combined with a garment, and through the different between the temperature of a human body and an external environment, electric energy is generated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of thermoelectric power generation, and in particular relates to a wearable thermoelectric power generation device for powering low-power human body diagnostic equipment. Background technique [0002] The human body diagnostic device, which is mainly composed of low-power human body sensors, plays an important role in the fields of disease prevention and health monitoring. Currently, using traditional batteries for power supply is the mainstream choice, resulting in frequent charging and battery replacement, as well as serious environmental pollution; therefore, people continue to explore sustainable and clean energy options to replace batteries. [0003] So far, scientists have conducted a lot of research in the field of solar and wind energy, but these energies themselves have specific external environments. Under certain conditions, it is almost impossible for the sun or wind to play a role, such as in b...
