  • Patent number: 10368592
    Abstract: Provided is an intelligent garment, in which a heating temperature of the garment is adjusted by sensing a size of an aperture of a garment body that is changed according to user control. The garment includes: a garment body; a heater provided in the garment body; a controller adjusting a heating temperature of the heater; and a temperature adjusting unit inputting an adjusting signal to the controller, and the adjusting signal being used for adjusting the heating temperature, wherein the temperature adjusting unit generates the adjusting signal to the controller according to a change in the size of the aperture provided in the garment body through which a body part of a user passes.

  • Patent number: 10316437
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a yarn plying apparatus which is able to ply two or more than two yarns, for example, a natural yarn, a synthetic yarn or a metal filament. In the present invention, the yarn packages are arranged in a radial shape at a regular interval on the base. The yarns are plied at the plying guide hole formed just above the center of the base, so the length and angles to the plying hole of the yarns moving to the plying hole are constant, whereby the constant tensile force can be maintained. Even when the thusly plied yarns are covered or twisted, the constant twisting can be obtained.

  • Patent number: 10271586
    Abstract: Provided is a garment generating electricity which transforms kinematic energy generated when a user wearing the garment walks and/or swings arms past torso to an electric energy, and has a simple structure and is produced at low cost, and realizes excellent electricity generation efficiency. A garment generating electricity from ambulation or aim swinging past torso or both includes a magnet member arranged on a first part of a garment to generate magnetic field, a coil member provided on a second part of the garment which reciprocally moves with the first part of the garment while walking or swinging aims past torso, the coil member generating electricity from the magnetic field of the magnet member, and a storage battery charged with the electricity generated by the coil member.

  • Publication number: 20190099131
    Abstract: Provided is a textile band for transmitting an electrical signal, which is stretched by applied tensile force to prevent damage thereto due to tensile force, and a smart wearable using the same. The textile band for transmitting the electrical signal includes yarns used as wefts, elastic threads used as warps, and a plurality of conductive yarns which are used as other warps and are disposed in a zigzag form to be stretched depending on stretching of the elastic yarns. The motion-sensing smart wearable includes an inner skin layer, to which the textile band is attached, a motion sensor module which is attached to the inner skin layer to sense a motion of the human body and transmit a sensed motion signal through the textile band, and an outer skin layer which is separably combined with the inner skin layer.
