Conventional heating devices generate heat by electricity or gas. Warm air is then delivered to each corner of the room by each outlet. Hot air or warm air is light, rising up at the beginning of heating to fill the upper space. After the upper space is filled with hot air, the hot air descends and gradually fills the lower space. Also, as the hot air rises, people do not immediately feel warmth, which consumes a lot of power and time to raise the temperature of the air to some degree within the space. Moreover, the air in the space is dry due to the flow and flow of hot air, and accompanies severe noise.

The nonconductive core thread (1) is made of a plurality of fibers. The fine metal chamber 2 is conductive and made of, for example, gold, silver, copper, tungsten, and molybdenum microfibers. The diameter of the fine metal chamber 2 is in the range of 0.02 to 0.12 m / m. The fine metal thread 2 is spirally wound around the surface of the nonconductive core thread 1, guided by the device, to form a flexible and stretchable conductive yarn 3.

The apparatus of the present invention includes a base station 7, a shaft seat 70, a shaft 71, a base 72, a turning wheel 721, a spool 73, a first power source unit 74, a spindle 75, And a second power supply unit 76.

The shaft seat 70 is installed in the base station 7 and the shaft 71 has a hole 711 formed along the center thereof and is fitted in the shaft seat 70. The base 72 is mounted to the shaft 71 and the turning wheel 721 is mounted below the base 72. The fine metal thread 2 is wound around the spool 73 and the spool 73 is fitted to the base 72. [ The flange 4 is installed on the shaft 71 to fix the spool 73 in position. The first power supply unit 74 is installed in the base station 7 to drive the drive wheels 741 and the drive wheels 741 are engaged with the turning wheels 721. [ The core thread 1 is wound around the spindle 75 and the spindle 75 is installed under the base station 7. The core thread 1 passes through the hole 711 of the shaft 71 and then the fine metal thread 2 is wound around the surface of the core thread 1 to form a conductive yarn. The second power supply unit 76 is installed above the base station 7 to drive the winding spool 77 winding the conductive yarn.

1, when the device of the present invention is actually used to produce conductive yarns, a nonconductive core thread 1 is wound around a spindle 75 and guided by a plurality of guide pulleys 78, Passes through the hole 711 of the spool 71 and is wound around the winding spool 77. Next, the spool 73 wound around the fine metal thread 2 is inserted into the base 72, and the limiting column 720 is inserted into the base 72 to fix the spool 73 Respectively. The flange 4 is used to fix the spool 73 in position. Initially, the fine metal thread 2 is wound around the core thread 1. The controller 8 is used to control the first power source unit 74, the second power source unit 76 and the winding spool 77 and set the rotation speed in the range of 0 to 4800 rpm. The shaft 71 is driven by the first power supply 74 to rotate the spool 73 while the second power supply 76 is driven by the rotary spool 77 to drive the core thread 1 So that the fine metal thread 2 is wound around the surface of the core thread 1 in a spiral manner in accordance with the rotational speed of the apparatus. When the nonconductive core yarn moves upwards every centimeter, the fine metal yarn is wound at 70 to 125 coils around the surface of the nonconductive core yarn to form the heatable conductive yarn 3. Finally, the conductive yarn 3 is wound around the winding spool 77 to form the heatable conductive yarn 3.

Next, referring to FIGS. 2-6, while fabricating a plain or blended fabric, the conductive yarn 3 is used as a weft yarn and the warp yarn is used as a weft yarn, It is a normal nonconductive yarn with color (5). Weft yarns and warp yarns are used to fabricate various types of garments and carpets that are conductive and of good stretch because they are interwoven with one another, and these garments and carpets can be dyed, printed, or patterned damask. In addition, the conductive yarn 3 can be made of fibers having different diameters so as to be widely applicable. For example, the micro-conductive yarn 3 may be made of a general fabric, a bed sheet, a bed sheet, a curtain, or a variety of conductive garments that are heatable for thermal insulation. Alternatively, the thicker conductive yarn 3 may be woven with thicker common fibers to produce various types of electric heating blankets, carpets, or mats for melting snow.

Hereinafter, the principle and function of the conductive yarn and the apparatus for manufacturing the same will be described.

When producing or weaving a variety of fabrics, a plurality of conductive metal wires 6, defined on both sides of the fabric within 0.5 to 0.6 centimeters, are arranged in the warp direction of the fabric A to be conductive yarns, Is limited to the middle portion of the fabric A in the warp direction. The conductive metal wires 6 are fine copper wires or silver wires having a diameter in the range of 0.05 to 0.12 m / m, and the nonconductive yarns 5 can be made of different colors or different materials. The core yarn 1 made of a plurality of fibers and the conductive yarn 3 including the fine metal yarn 2 wound around the core yarn 1 are arranged in the weft direction. The fine metal thread 2 wound around the surface of the core thread 1 in the weft direction is woven and woven with the conductive metal wires 6 (fine copper wire or silver wire) in the warp direction from both sides of the fabric, . The power supply unit 9 supplies alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) electricity of 0V to 24V to the conductive metal wires 6 disposed on both sides of the fabric A for heat generation. In addition, the voltage (V), current (A), temperature (T), and time can be finely tuned by the computer so that the fabric can generate heat to provide a predetermined temperature in the range of 0 ° C to 65 ° C. Thus, the required uniform temperature is generated between the yarns of the fabric (A). The fabric A thus saves electricity, and there is no risk of electric shock and electromagnetic waves.

In use, when a fixed or movable carpet is placed on an indoor floor to provide warm air, each small unit in one plane within the same unit area generates uniform heat. Since the hot air rises naturally, there is no need to provide hot air with the blower. Thus, the heat from the electric carpet generated by the fabric containing the conductive yarn of this invention rises naturally from the floor or floor of the carpet to each corner of the space until the temperature rises to a constant value. Thus, there is no drying, noise or other discomfort caused by hot air.

In addition, the fabric comprising the conductive yarn of this invention can be cut along the weft direction. Cut length and size are determined as needed. Conductive metal wires 6 on either side of the cut fabric are connected in parallel or in series and form another electrically conductive, heatable fabric piece. Feverable fabrics can be used to make everyday items to withstand cold, such as bed sheets, mattresses, bedspreads, cushions, curtains, and wallpaper, or they can be used to make blankets of different sizes, carpets, , Which can be placed on the floor without construction and is very safe and convenient to provide room heat. The fabrics described above may also be made from tents or diving suits.

However, the above-described embodiments and drawings are not limited to the product structure or use of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
