Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of functional clothing, and in particular to a zero-energy consumption active temperature regulating multifunctional sun protection suit and an operation control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In high temperature environments, such as deserts, construction sites, or outdoor sports, individuals who are exposed to the sun for a long time may develop health problems such as heat stroke and heat stroke.

[0003] At present, sun-protective clothing on the market mainly relies on the fabric's reflection of ultraviolet rays and physical blocking mechanism of ultraviolet rays to reduce the direct damage of harmful radiation to the skin. However, this type of sun protection still cannot solve the problem of increased body temperature of the wearer. At the same time, in order to achieve efficient ultraviolet protection, sun-protective clothing often needs to use high-density fabrics to resist ultraviolet rays, but this inevitably sacrifices the breathability of the fabric. When worn under high temperature conditions in summer, this type of design can easily cause the body to feel stuffy, increase the wearer's discomfort, increase the burden on the human body's thermal regulation system, cause thermal imbalance in the body, and cause heat stress reactions. In addition, traditional sun-protective clothing usually relies on the heat dissipation or passive ventilation of the material, and its cooling effect is relatively limited and difficult to sustain, and it is difficult to provide the wearer with stable and effective temperature control. Summary of the invention

The cold / heat storage textile layer is woven using a textile process and can be used to store and release cold or heat, thereby enhancing the thermal insulation and temperature regulation performance of the clothing.

[0009] The active temperature control system of the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body adopts the combined effect of semiconductor refrigeration / heat layer and cold / heat storage textile layer to store / release heat, and combines with temperature control chip for automatic operation control to realize intelligent human body comfortable temperature regulation.

[0010] The cold / heat storage textile layer is formed by evenly and densely implanting phase change energy storage microcapsules with a specific phase change temperature into textiles, and the inner side facing the human body is provided with skin-friendly fabric; the phase change energy storage microcapsules are made of a polymer material with thermal stability and biocompatibility, which can effectively prevent leakage of phase change materials and provide heat conduction and phase change effects.

[0023] The embodiments of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Embodiment 1: See also Figure 1-3, a zero-energy consumption active temperature regulating multifunctional sun protection suit, as shown in the figure, includes a cap body 1, a sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2, a connecting plug 3, an embedded heat dissipation fan 4, a power storage device 5, a sealed waterproof zipper 6, and a sealed elastic band 7. A plurality of embedded fans 4 are evenly distributed around the brim of the cap body 1. The cap body 1 is connected to the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2 through the connecting plug 3. The inside of the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2 is a cold / heat storage textile layer 13 densely covered with phase change heat storage microcapsules, a foldable semiconductor refrigeration / heat layer 12, and a flexible photovoltaic material layer 11. The phase change material is encapsulated in a metal foil bag or a graphene bag and sealed in a phase change heat storage microcapsule 111. A temperature control chip 121 is also arranged inside the semiconductor refrigeration / heat layer 12, which can be installed on, but not limited to, the upper arm, thigh, chest, back or forehead to monitor the temperature changes of the microenvironment inside the clothing in real time. The outer layers of the cap body 1 and the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body 2 are both made of flexible photovoltaic materials, which can collect solar heat and fully convert solar light energy into heat energy under solar radiation. A detachable power storage device 5 is provided on the clothing body, which can be replaced according to actual needs.

[0025] Specifically, on sunny days in summer, the temperature of the human body and the surrounding air rises rapidly. At this time, the phase change material in the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 close to the human skin side absorbs part of the heat to reach the melting point. At the same time, the temperature control chip 121 receives the temperature information and outputs the control signal, and uses the photovoltaic power to drive the inner side of the semiconductor 122 in the middle layer of the body to cool. At this time, the embedded heat dissipation fan 4 and the semiconductor 122 are used for combined cooling and temperature control, so as to realize the heat release and energy storage of the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 in the inner heat storage textile layer of the body, and transfer the heat of the human body or the heat of the air near the human body. At the same time, the circuit is connected, and the photovoltaic power is used to drive the embedded heat dissipation fan 4 on the cap body to run and cool down; until the inner layer of the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body 2 drops to a reasonable temperature and the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 absorbs heat to the upper limit, the semiconductor 122 stops running, the embedded heat dissipation fan 4 automatically folds and returns to its position to stop working, and the excess photovoltaic power is stored in the power storage device 5.

[0026] On cloudy days in summer, the hat body 1 can be removed as needed, and only the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body 2 can be worn. The electric energy stored in the power storage device 5 can be used to drive the semiconductor 122 in the middle layer of the body to operate for inner cooling and temperature control until the inner layer of the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body 2 drops to a reasonable temperature and the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 absorbs heat to an upper limit, and then the operation of the semiconductor 122 is stopped.

[0027] On rainy days in summer, the hat body 1 can block rain, and the temperature control chip controls the embedded heat dissipation fan 4 to stop working. The electric energy stored in the power storage device 5 is used to drive the middle layer semiconductor 122 of the main body to operate for internal cooling until the inner layer of the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body 2 drops to a reasonable temperature and the phase change heat storage microcapsule absorbs heat to the upper limit, and then the semiconductor 122 stops operating.

[0028] When there is no light, the photovoltaic material layer does not work, and the suit is only provided with energy by the power storage device 5. At this time, the cap body 4 can be disassembled and can also be used as a shield in rainy and snowy weather.

[0029] Embodiment 2: On sunny days in winter, the human body surface temperature or the surrounding air temperature drops until the solidification point of the phase change material, and the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 will release a part of the latent heat. The temperature control chip 121 receives the temperature information and outputs a control signal. At this time, the photovoltaic power generated by the temperature control chip 121 drives the middle-layer semiconductor 122 of the main body to reversely operate the inner heating and temperature rise, thereby realizing the heat absorption and energy storage of the phase change heat storage microcapsule 11 in the inner heat storage textile layer of the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2, so that the inner layer of the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2 in contact with the human body is controlled within the phase change temperature range of the phase change heat storage microcapsule. When the inner layer of the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2 rises to a reasonable temperature and the phase change heat storage microcapsule absorbs heat to the upper limit, the semiconductor 122 stops running and the excess photovoltaic power is stored in the power storage device 5. In this case, the cap body 1 can shade and participate in photovoltaic power generation, and the temperature control chip 121 controls the embedded heat dissipation fan 4 not to work.

[0030] On cloudy days in winter, the cap body 1 is removed and only the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body 2 is worn. The electric energy stored in the power storage device 5 drives the middle layer semiconductor 122 to operate for inner heating and temperature control. When the inner layer of the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing body 2 rises to a reasonable temperature and the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 absorbs heat to an upper limit, the operation of the semiconductor 122 is stopped.

[0031] On rainy days in winter, the hat body 4 can block rain / snow, the temperature control chip 121 controls the embedded heat dissipation fan 4 to stop working, and uses the electric energy stored in the power storage device 5 to drive the middle layer semiconductor 122 of the main body to operate for inner heating and temperature control. When the inner layer of the sun-proof and heat-insulating clothing main body 2 rises to a reasonable temperature and the phase change heat storage microcapsule absorbs 111 heat to the upper limit, the semiconductor 122 stops operating.

[0032] In particular, when the suit is not needed to work, the suit can be placed under sunlight to store photovoltaic power.

[0033] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the shell material of the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 is made of a polymer material with thermal stability and biocompatibility, which can effectively prevent the core phase change material of the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 from leaking after absorbing heat and liquefying, and can provide better heat conduction effect.

[0034] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the core material of the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 is an organic phase change material. In particular, this example specifically uses a phase change material with a phase change temperature close to the temperature zone of the human skin surface. The use of this phase change temperature material can ensure that the temperature difference between the cold and hot ends of the semiconductor 122 refrigeration plate is minimized, and the theoretical refrigeration / heat operation efficiency is maximized. Ultimately, it can achieve the cold / heat storage operation with a smaller temperature difference between the cold and hot ends of the semiconductor 122 refrigeration plate on the basis of meeting the human body's comfortable temperature requirements.

[0035] In particular, when used for keeping warm in winter, the core material in the phase change heat storage microcapsule 111 can undergo phase change and liquefaction by absorbing solar thermal radiation to store heat and maintain the temperature of the inner side of the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2 near the phase change temperature, thereby achieving the effects of heat storage and warmth preservation, reducing the operating time and power consumption of the semiconductor 122 refrigeration plate, and extending the stable operating time of the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2.

[0036] Furthermore, the power storage device 5 is arranged on the sun protection and heat insulation clothing body 2, and the position can be flexibly changed according to actual needs. The power storage device 5 is electrically connected to the embedded small heat dissipation fan 4 and the refrigeration component, that is, the power storage device 5 provides power to the embedded small heat dissipation fan 4 and the refrigeration component. The power storage device 5 can use a dedicated battery, or a variety of related devices with power storage functions such as a universal power bank. The battery is detachable and can be changed according to actual needs.
