  • Publication number: 20250387059
    Abstract: A conductive transfer (400, FIG. 4) comprises a conductive layer (404, FIG. 4) positioned between a first encapsulating layer (402, FIG. 4) and a second encapsulating layer (403, FIG. 4) forming at least one electrode (501) having a contact surface (503). The conductive transfer further comprises an adhesive layer (405, FIG. 4) for attaching the conductive transfer to a wearable item (102, FIG. 1). The at least one electrode comprises at least one raised protrusion (502) on the contact surface.

  • Publication number: 20250229519
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a conductive transfer, comprises the step of printing a non-conductive ink onto a release film to produce a first non-conductive ink layer and curing the first non-conductive ink layer. The method comprises printing an electrically conductive ink onto the first non-conductive ink layer to produce an electrically conductive ink layer and curing the electrically conductive ink layer; and printing a non-conductive ink over the electrically conductive layer to produce a second non-conductive ink layer and curing the second non-conductive ink layer. An adhesive material is printed over the second non-conductive ink layer to produce an adhesive layer and the adhesive layer is cured.

  • Patent number: 11272580
    Abstract: A conductive transfer 201 for application to a surface includes two non-conductive ink layers 202, 203. A heating element 204 is positioned between the two non-conductive ink layers. An adhesive layer 207 for adhering said conductive transfer to a surface is also present. The heating element comprises an electrically conductive ink 205 having a positive temperature coefficient such that the electrically conductive ink exhibits an increase in resistance in response to an increase in temperature. A method of production of the conductive transfer involves a printing process.
