Description
Background technology
Be not used in the individual for example heat stress and cold weather exposure alleviation system of the soldier's of duration work etc. acceptable prior art in hot cold environment.For example the desert condition often makes the individual time is in the heat stress environment and is in the severe cold at night in the daytime.Heat stress can cause perspiration, fatigue, dehydration, dizzy, skin temperature is overheated, muscle weakness, heart rate increase, prickly heat, faint, injured, lose weight, heatstroke, heat exhaustion even death.For those wear the crew who examines the individual of biochemical (NBC) protective garments and wear flying suit, the danger of heat stress even bigger.Cold weather exposure can cause: discomfort; Pain; Numb; Heart, circulation and breathing problem; Muscle function and performance degradation; Frostbite and may cause senseless and dead hypothermia.
Although can be portable, in light weight, lower powered individual's cooling can reduce heat stress with heating system, reduce cold exposure adverse effect, improve service behaviour and reduce water consumption, existing active and passive cooling system fail to satisfy the minimum requirements of optimal system.
Initiatively individual cooling device is own in the prior art known.Initiatively individual heating system also is known in the prior art.But prior art seems to lack combination cooling and the heating system with any efficiency operation longer time.But existing active cooling and heating system are too heavy, huge, efficient is low, and only effective to limited time quantum.These devices also consume too many energy, and use the material of potential danger, for example lithium-sulfur dioxide cell or R134a refrigerant.Passive cooling and heating system use comprise need refrigeration, freezing or heating before use phase change chemicals, water or gel in interior packing, these passive coolings and heating system are unsuitable for satisfying the needs of user in the following situation, for example can't realize in the army's field work under the weather conditions of hot, cold or hot cold combination passive cooling or heater block refrigeration, freezing or the heating situation under.The active cooling and the heating system of the prior art of having developed comprise:
1. the problem of the military PICS of the U.S. (individual ice-cooled system): this system uses compact ice.Must change ice in per 30 minutes, and for example the pilot possibly can't obtain to ice this system that replenishes with the open-air users such as soldier that dispose.
2. the problem of the military PVCS of the U.S. (but portable vapor compression cooling system): whole system is heavy (27 pounds) too; Use the lithium-sulfur dioxide cell of potential danger, can not for example use on the ship steam compressed at non-horizontal surface; The R134a container at high temperature may break, and is exposed in liquid or the vapor refrigerant to cause frostbite, highly be exposed to can cause in the gas that central nervous system is weak, irregular heartbeats and suffocating.
3. the problem of the military ALMCs of the U.S. (advanced lightweight micro climate cooling system): the voltage delay phenomenon may make the lithium-sulfur dioxide cell fail to start, particularly after storage; Battery may leakage can cause dyspneic poisonous sulfur dioxide gas, and unexpected charging is being arranged, puncturing or apply under the hot situation and may burn.These batteries not rechargeable, can not be exposed to high temperature, be easy to and water reaction, and can not be opened, puncture or crush.
The problem of (4.IMCC integrated medium-sized cooling loop) (DARPA ARPA): cool off insufficient.
5. the problem of absorption/evaporative cooling (DARPA ARPA): according to the Roger Masadi at Nei Dike soldier center, typical drier only absorbs weight their 20% water approximately, and cooling density is roughly identical with ice.
6. the problem of US National Aeronautics and Space Administration and USAF (APECS) crew individual environment control system: these systems are too huge for the soldier of infantry regiment.
7. life strengthens the problem of technology: the mixture of ice and water that is used for cooling unit must replenish again.
Although the individual of these prior aries cooling can realize their specific purposes and demands separately with each individual the cooling with heating system in the heating system, and quite useful probably for their intended purpose, none openly can be portable, solid and lightweight and can be used in any orientation or be used as the waistband installation system or equipment and/or method that knapsack requires with the operation of satisfying the user to notice described prior art.And prior art can not provide the operation of continuous some hrs with the speed of the adjustable cooling of 700-1000 British thermal unit (BTU) per hour or heating.
Thus, obviously also exist, promptly maximize the benefited of user and minimize the injury danger that causes by its use for the new improved individual's cooling and the demand of heating system.
In this respect, the present invention disclosed herein has roughly proofreaied and correct these problems, and has realized this need for equipment.
