Further, in an embodiment, the display 340 may display the temperature of the warm mat 200 to the user.

5 to 8, an operation of the adaptive temperature control system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

5 is a flowchart illustrating an operation of the adaptive temperature control system according to an embodiment of the present invention. 6 to 8 are views for explaining the operation of the adaptive temperature control system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, a user sets a wakeup time (S10). This operation can be performed, for example, through an application installed in the portable terminal (400 in FIG. 1).

Referring to FIG. 6, an application installed in the portable terminal 400 can receive a weather time from a user through the user interface 410, for example. When the wakeup time is inputted through the application installed in the portable terminal 400, the controller (300 of FIG. 1) does not need to have a separate input interface, so that the size of the controller 300 . In addition, it is possible to provide a convenient interface for the user to input and provide the user with necessary information, thereby enhancing the user's convenience.

On the other hand, in some embodiments, the wake-up time setting operation may be performed using, for example, a controller (300 in Fig. 1).

Referring to FIG. 7, the controller 300 can receive a weather time directly from a user through an input button 370 or the like disposed in the controller 300, for example. When the controller 300 receives the wakeup time directly from the user, the portable terminal (400 in FIG. 1) is not separately needed and the user who is hard to use the portable terminal (400 in FIG. 1) ) Can easily enter the weather time. Referring again to FIG. 5, it is determined whether the switching time T between the first and second sections has arrived from the rising time set by the user (S20).

Referring to FIG. 8, the waking time W may be set by the user in step S10. When the wakeup time W is set by the user in this way, the application or controller (300 in Fig. 1) installed in the portable terminal (400 in Fig. 1) sets the time preceding the wake up time W by the predetermined time t (T) of the first section (I) and the second section (II).

For example, assuming that the predetermined time t is, for example, one hour, when the user sets the wakeup time W to 7:00 am, the application or the controller (also shown in Fig. 1) installed in the portable terminal 1 of 300 can determine the switching time T of the first interval I and the second interval II at 6 am.

5 and 8, if the switching time T of the first section I and the second section II has not arrived, the wearable module 100 of FIG. 1 measures the body temperature of the user (S30). The controller (300 of FIG. 1) can adjust the temperature of the heating mat (200 of FIG. 1) in conjunction with the body temperature of the user (S40). That is, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) can adjust the temperature of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) in conjunction with the user's body temperature in the first section (I).

At this time, as described above, the wearable module (100 in FIG. 1) ignores the measurement value of the sensor which is in contact with the warm mat (200 in FIG. 1) among the plurality of sensors included in the wearable module And the user's body temperature can be measured using the measured values of the remaining sensors.

Referring to Figure 8, in some embodiments, the controller (300 of Figure 1) includes a thermal mat (200 of Figure 1) such that the temperature (B) of the warm mat (A) (B) of FIG. 1). In some embodiments, such an offset C may be provided from a user via a portable terminal (400 in FIG. 1) or a controller (300 in FIG. 1).

For example, when the user sets 1 ° C as the offset C, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) determines whether the temperature (B) of the warm mat (200 in FIG. 1) The temperature (B) of the heating mat (200 in Fig. 1) can be adjusted to be 1 占 폚 higher than the body temperature (A) (i.e., C = 1 占 폚).

Although not shown in the drawing, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) controls the heating mat (see FIG. 1) in the first section I when the user sets the temperature The temperature B of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) may be adjusted so that the temperature (B) of the heating mat (1) is 1 ° C lower than the user's body temperature (A)

5 and 8, if the switching time T of the first section I and the second section II has arrived, the controller 300 (FIG. 1) The temperature B of the mat (200 in FIG. 1) can be adjusted (S50). That is, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) can adjust the temperature B of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) according to a predetermined setting (for example, a setting arbitrarily set by the user) in the second section II .

Specifically, referring to FIG. 8, the controller 300 of FIG. 1 may increase the temperature B of the heating mat (200 of FIG. 1) irrespective of the body temperature A of the user in the second section II have.

In this way, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) adjusts the temperature B of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) in conjunction with the body temperature A of the user in the first section I, Increasing the temperature (B) of the warm mat (200 in FIG. 1) irrespective of the body temperature (A) of the user may be for the following reasons.

As a person sleeps, the body temperature of a person decreases and at some point the temperature of a person falls. Due to this characteristic, the temperature of the space in which the sleeping surface takes place can affect the quality of the sleeping surface. If it is too hot or cold, you will not be able to sleep naturally and you will not sleep all night.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, from the wakeup time W to the controller (also referred to as the controller) from the wakeup time T until the predetermined time (i.e., the switching point T of the first section I and the second section II) 1 300) adjusts the temperature (B) of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) in conjunction with the user's body temperature (A) to create an environment in which the user can take a good night's sleep.

Then, after the elapse of the predetermined time (i.e., the switching point T of the first section I and the second section II) by the predetermined time t from the wakeup time W, 300 increases the temperature (B) of the warm mat (200 in FIG. 1) irrespective of the body temperature (A) of the user to help the user relax the muscles. This provides the user with a feeling of showering with hot water, so that the feeling of fatigue can be minimized during the weather.

That is, the applicable temperature control system according to the present embodiment is configured to use a wearable module (100 in Fig. 1) of a fabric material that is comfortable for a wearer to minimize bodily sensation fatigue during a weather condition while meeting the biological biorhythm of the user So that the temperature (B) of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) can be adjusted.

In the embodiment described above, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) increases the temperature B of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) irrespective of the body temperature A of the user in the second section II However, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the controller (300 of FIG. 1) may reduce the temperature (B) of the warm mat (200 of FIG. 1) constantly, regardless of the body temperature (A) of the user in the second section (II). In addition, in some other embodiments, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) may maintain the temperature B of the warm mat (200 in FIG. 1) constant, regardless of the body temperature A of the user in the second section II have.

That is, when the user does not feel comfortable at a temperature higher than the body temperature at the time of vaporization, the temperature setting in the second section (II) may be modified and changed as necessary.

9 is a view for explaining the operation of the adaptive temperature control system according to another embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, differences from the embodiments described above with reference to FIG. 8 will be mainly described.

9, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) sets the temperature (E) of the warm mat (200 in FIG. 1) to the first setting in the first section (II) irrespective of the body temperature And adjusts the temperature E of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) in conjunction with the body temperature A of the user in the second section II. In the third section III, The temperature E of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) can be adjusted according to the second setting regardless of the temperature (A).

Specifically, for example, the controller (300 in FIG. 1) maintains the temperature E of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) constant in the first section (II) irrespective of the body temperature A of the user (200 in Fig. 1) in cooperation with the body temperature A of the user (at this time, the predetermined offset C can be considered as described above) in the second section (II) E in the third section III and the temperature E of the heating mat (200 in FIG. 1) irrespective of the body temperature A of the user in the third section III.

In some embodiments, the time point G at which the first section I and the second section II are switched is a temperature mat (200 in Fig. 1) in consideration of the user's body temperature A and a predetermined offset C ) ≪ / RTI > The switching time T of the second section II and the third section III can be determined to be an earlier time by the predetermined time t from the waking time W set by the user.

Referring to FIG. 10, there is shown a graph for explaining the temperature difference before and after the adaptive temperature control system according to the embodiments of the present invention is applied. In the state where the adaptive temperature control system according to the embodiments of the present invention is not applied, as shown in the graph on the left, a large temperature difference occurs, which may cause an environment in which it is difficult to take a good night's sleep.
