Patent number: 11857005Abstract: A fully adjustable hybrid personal cooling and heating system is configured to remove or supply heat from/to a human user. The system is specifically designed to provide up to 8-hours of high efficiency adjustable cooling or heating when worn and operated by a user. The personal cooling and heating system use non-toxic room-temperature liquid metal as primary coolant and phase-change material as secondary coolant. The primary coolant is pumped using an active powered pump which absorbs heat from the user's body, and passively release the heat to the secondary coolant making the invention a hybrid cooling/heating system. Passive heat release is facilitated by extreme high thermal conductivity of the primary coolant. Also, the secondary coolant is thermally insulated from the environment allowing on-demand heat absorption only from the primary coolant.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2020Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Inventor: M Arifur Rahman
