Benefits of technology

[0007]Therefore it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a conductive yarn and a cloth containing the same that overcomes shortcomings of heaters available now such as high energy consumption and energy loss. A cloth that gives heat is formed by woven yarns coiled around by heating elements. The cloth is made into various objects that keep warm so as to replace conventional heaters.

Problems solved by technology

It takes large amount of electricity and time to make the temperature of the air in the space increase to a certain degree evenly.
Moreover, the air in the space is drier, accompanying with thundering noises due to blowing and flowing of hot air.

Embodiment Construction

[0017]Refer to FIG. 1, a conductive yarn 1 according to the present invention mainly includes a yarn 11 and a heating element 12. The yarn 11 is formed by a plurality of fibers 111 and the heating element 12 coiled around an outer surface of the yarn 11 in a spiral form so as to make the yarn 11 have electrical conductivity.

[0018]Refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, a cloth 2 containing conductive yarns consists of: at least one conductive yarn 1, at least one yarn 11 and at least one conductive metal wire 21. The conductive yarn 1 is used as a thread in a first direction. The yarn 11 formed by a plurality of fibers is used as a thread in a second direction, limited around a middle part of the cloth, and interlaced with the thread in the first direction. The conductive metal wire 21 is used as a thread in a second direction, arranged at the two sides of the yarn 11 on the middle part of the cloth and passed across the thread in the first direction so as to form a conductive path.

Abstract

A conductive yarn and a cloth containing the same are revealed. A plurality of fibers is wound with a heating element in a spiral form so as to form a yarn with electrical conductivity and flexibility. The conductive yarn is used as a thread in a first direction while regular yarns with conductive metal wires arranged at the two sides thereof are used as threads in a second direction. Thus the threads are woven into a cloth that generates heat while being conducted with electricity. Thereby the cloth can be made into mattress, curtains, textile wall coverings, oversleeves, knee braces, waist supports, foot pads, seat cushions, and carpets etc so as to replace various heating equipment.

Description

[0001]This invention is filed by claiming a priority from an U.S. provisional application with a Ser. No. 61 / 275,127, filed on 25 Aug. 2009.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Fields of the invention[0003]The present invention relates to a conductive yarn and a cloth containing the same, especially to a cloth formed by woven yarns coiled around by heating elements for providing heat. The cloth is made into various objects that provide heat and against the cold so as to replace heating equipment.[0004]2. Descriptions of Related Art[0005]Most of conventional heating equipment such as heaters generates heat by electricity or gas. Then warm air is directed to each corner of a room by each vent. One of the features of hot or worm air is that the light warm air rises within a certain space in the beginning of heating. It takes large amount of electricity and time to make the temperature of the air in the space increase to a certain degree evenly. Moreover, the air in the space is drier, a...
