In other words, the tip of the lower limb, heel, ankle, and toe (up to about 2'ocm) are the dense pattern, and the 7S and leg parts (approximately 20CI11 or higher) are the sparse pattern. .

In the above explanation, each panel 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 is provided with the heater wire 10, but some of these panels may have a configuration without the heater wire 10. . In this case, a glossy surface such as a stainless steel plate (SIIS304 etc.) or an aluminum plate is used to efficiently reflect the heat radiated from the panel having the heater wire 10. FIG. 10 shows a cross-sectional view of an example. 19 is an aluminum plate,
As for the surface condition, it is preferable to select a glossy surface with a reflectance of 0.3 or less.

Next, FIGS. 11(a) and (1) are views showing an embodiment of the present invention that is foldable in consideration of storability. FIG.

In the figure, 20 is a joint for folding, and each panel is connected by an exterior fabric 1G and an interior fabric 11, resulting in a flexible structure. In figure (a), each panel 1.2
．． 3 and 6 are folded and stored by rotating them in the direction shown by the arrows around their respective joints 20. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing the folded state.

Next, a method of using the foot warmer of the present invention will be described.

First of all, those who have subjective symptoms such as sensitivity to cold should wear socks,
Take off your pants or roll them up below your knees. Of course, you can leave your clothes on.

If you put your feet in the foot warmer, as shown in Figure 2, the panel 3 on the 1b side opens left and right, so after doing this, you can put your feet in the foot warmer while sitting in the foot warmer. Legs 1. ! Natural posture C: Can be used without raising j. When the pear-faced panel 38 is closed, it can be kept closed using the magic fastener 3a.

Now, when the primary power switch 8 is turned on, conduction is established to the power gland 10 in each panel, and heat generation begins 11i.

At least one sahyswip 11 is installed in each panel to prevent the temperature from exceeding a predetermined temperature.
For example, the bottom panel 5 is set at 40°C, and the other panels are set at about 70°C. The 311G steel plate 15 of each panel becomes heated, and the far-infrared spray paint 18
However, far infrared rays (approximately 4 to 1000 μm) are transmitted. Far-infrared rays are a part of electromagnetic waves, and because they are linear, they do not reach shadowy areas. Therefore, in the case of a foot warmer, the far infrared rays are emitted in a way that covers the lower limbs.

It is known that the reason why far infrared rays are used is that the effect on living organisms (particularly in terms of blood flow reflection) is lower than that of ordinary sheathed heaters. The blood flow increasing effect and vasodilatory effect are highly persistent. In other words, far-infrared energy has a sustained thermal effect on living organisms. Features and effects! It uses V.

Therefore, according to the actual test results of the foot warmer of the present invention, the foot warmer,
It was confirmed that there was a difference of about 1°C or more in the residual effect of heat at each site after 15 minutes of hot water bath treatment and 15 minutes of flushing.

Honkomyo's foot warmer can provide a one-minute heating effect in about 15 minutes of use. In addition, since the foot warmer C1 is not needed in the summer, it is necessary to consider storage, and the structure is such that it can be folded and stored.
