Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a heating mechanism including stretchable heating tape and a rechargeable electrical power source. The stretchable heating tape can be worn to provide heat and pressure relief on different parts of a user's body anisotropically. On one side of such stretchable tape lies a single-layer fabric in which non-stretchable heating wire is at least partially weaved with knitted stretchable yarns to make a stretchable fabric that can stretch up to 100%. On the other side of the stretchable tape lies an adhesive material that provides tension at various levels of stretch up to 100% and can sustain multiple hours on direct skin applications. Such stretchable fabric can have a connector coming from one end or both ends which provides a path for power through an inter-connecting cable between the stretchable tape and a controller which includes the power source and its control circuitry.

Abstract: A portable electrical heating system includes a controller, a heat delivery mechanism that is releasably and reusably attachable directly to a user's skin, and an electrical connection between the two that allows for selectively engagement between the controller and heat delivery mechanism. The controller allows for the selection of a temperature setting for the heat delivery mechanism. The controller includes at least one signaling device to indicate the power and temperature setting. The heat delivery mechanism includes a heating element, and further includes an adhesive layer that allows for multiple uses of the heat delivery mechanism.
