Embodiment Construction

[0015]Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 each element of the heated garment having overheating protection 38 is briefly described. A full description of the function and operation of the heated garment having overheating protection 38 will follow.

[0016]The heated garment having overheating protection 38 of the invention includes, an upper garment 10 and a lower garment 36 made from polyester nylon spandex fabric that has excellent wicking ability, and is thermal and moisture conductive. The upper garment 10 includes snug fitting sleeves to eliminate heat loss and protect against insects such as ticks. The upper garment 10 also includes a 1 inch turtle neck to help eliminate heat loss. The upper garment 10 and lower garment 36 include a multiple chemical heat pack 12 system. Each chemical heat pack 12 generates heat and is replaceable. Each chemical heat pack 12 is inserted into a flexible and expandable heat pack pocket 14 at each location using a Velcro closure 16 that may include side Vel...

Abstract

An upper-and-lower survival wear garment conforms to the body, with flexible and expandable pockets designed to hold multiple sizes of replaceable chemical heat or chemical cooling packs. A three-sided Velcro on a pocket stows a signal mirror to alert emergency rescue personnel in an emergency in a remote location. Behind each pocket is a thermally conductive high-temperature-resistant silicone-coated fabric for burn- and frostbite-protection. This fabric radiates heat evenly in all directions from zero to twelve inches from the heat source, and protects against hot spots or cold spots, and against rupture of the heat or cold packs. A 4-way flat-lockstitch seam has fluorescent thread for superior visibility in low-light working or wilderness environments.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a heated garment and, more particularly, to a heated garment that can use multiple sized heat or cold packs which transfers heat evenly throughout the garment.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Heated garments have been used in many different environments where the user would be exposed to extremely cold temperatures for extended periods of time. Heated garments can be particularly useful to utility workers, sports fans, athletes, and hunters to name a few. Currently there are a multitude of heated garments that use chemical heat packs that are placed in specially designed pockets built into the garments. These do not provide even heat transmission and distribution over a large surface area causing patchy heat distribution over the user's body. In addition, chemical heat packs are manufactured in a large variety of sizes and shapes and current heated garments that use chemical heat packs provide no provision for accommodatin...
