Abstract: Systems and devices for producing heat for wearable articles of clothing are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a system for providing heat to an individual may include a first wearable article, a second wearable article, and a micro-generator. The first wearable article may include a first heating element integrated into the first wearable article and a first connector. The second wearable article may include a second heating element integrated into the second wearable article and a second connector. The micro-generator, in some embodiments, may be removably attachable to at least one of the first connector of the first wearable article and the second connector of the second wearable article.

Abstract: Wearable articles of clothing including a micro-generator and devices for producing heat therein are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a wearable article may include a glove and a housing for a micro-generator. The housing for the micro-generator may include a lower housing portion and an upper housing portion, which may be placed on the lower housing portion. The housing for the micro-generator may also include a rotating arm coupled to the micro-generator and extending through an opening in the upper housing portion.

Abstract: Articles of clothing, such as heated articles of clothing, and devices including a micro-generator are described herein. In some embodiments, the article of clothing may include a micro-generator attached to the article of clothing. The article of clothing may also include at least one heating element that may be coupled to the micro-generator and may be integrated within the article of clothing.
