Description

The invention relates to the field of outerwear and footwear, mainly for children, equipped with a device for monitoring body temperature, and can be used for visual, sound or remote monitoring and / or monitoring the temperature of individual parts of the body under clothing. It is also possible to use the invention to control and / or monitor the temperature under clothing of travelers, people with mental or physical disabilities, and animals.

A prerequisite for the creation of the invention is the well-known fact of using outerwear and footwear for maintaining body heat while walking outdoors. However, even with the same outerwear, the temperature drop under the clothes and in shoes to a critical temperature, at which the child freezes, each child has an individual, and this is difficult to control. In addition, children with a feeling of cold often do not take any action, which leads to hypothermia of the whole organism or individual parts of the child’s body. Therefore, often in the autumn-spring period, children's colds associated with untimely notification of adults about a significant decrease in body temperature, under clothing or inside shoes, increase.

A VivaLnk eSkin device is known for determining body temperature using a thermometer in the form of a patch that does not require a power source, which is attached to the skin of a person and allows you to control his body temperature (El. Pec. Http://www.ferra.ru/ru/health/review /mHealth-mHealth_on_CES2015_2/#.VgIlCn3mmLI date of view 09/23/2015).

The disadvantages of the known analogue are:

- firstly, the lack of monitoring of body temperature indicators under clothing and shoes;

- secondly, low adhesion of the body to the device, which is not recommended to be subjected to dynamic effects;

- thirdly, the difficulty of reading the indicator in brightly lit places.

Known jacket with a device for determining the location of its user, containing the top with a volumetric pocket for the tracker, and a lining between which a channel is formed for the passage of a cable connected to the tracker, having at the free end a user-accessible connector for connecting to the charger, while a secret hole is formed between the upper and lower parts of the lining, closed by a clasp, to access the cable, and the lower part of the lining is connected to an internal windproof valve on the cat rum kuliske fastened, locking the position of the cable (RF Patent №2431434 C1, priority date 10.11.2010, publication date 20.10.2011, authors: Lopandina SK et al, RU.).

A disadvantage of the known jacket with a device for determining the location is the limited area of use - the inability of this jacket to monitor body temperature and inform about the onset of critical temperature.

According to the invention, the device is configured to be sent using a cell phone upon reaching a critical temperature of the coordinates of GPS, GLONASS, etc. location devices at predetermined intervals.

According to the invention, an indicator placed in a place most visible to observers on clothes is installed with the possibility of collecting data from all sensors in contact with the body, and with the possibility of signaling that a critical temperature has been reached in at least one sensor.

According to the invention, the device is configured to turn on when a critical temperature is reached an autonomous heating or cooling device located near a critical temperature area.

According to the invention, the device comprises a cell phone installed in the inner pocket of the clothes with a microprocessor module integrated in it, equipped with appropriate software that provides temperature measurement, processing of incoming data and turning on / off the indicator or critical temperature detector, or sending SMS / MMS messages, or a call to a number when “picking up” a phone with a proverb in automatic mode about reaching a critical temperature, or sending GPS coordinates, GLONASS, etc. location devices at predetermined intervals.

In FIG. 1 schematically shows a jacket 1 with a light indicator 2 fixed thereon; in FIG. 2 schematically shows a jacket 1 with a numerical indicator 3 attached to it; in FIG. 3 shows a functional diagram of a device for monitoring the temperature under clothes.

The main elements of the functional diagram are: a microprocessor module with a battery 4 connected to temperature sensors 5 and to an indicator 2 or detector 3 using wired or wireless connections, a cell phone 6 for wireless data transmission on reaching the thresholds of sensors 5 when they reach critical temperatures and to transmit data about the location of the object, GPS / Glonass, etc. tracker 7.

Microprocessor module 4 collects information from temperature sensors 5, and when a threshold of critical temperature is reached, it can include an alarm. This module is made in the form of a small case with a power supply and a measuring and transmitting controller located in the case, which allows to obtain data on the current temperature from temperature sensors, compare the obtained temperature with the critical one and, when the critical temperature is reached, give a signal to indicators 2, 3, attached to clothes from the outside in clearly visible places. The microprocessor module is placed inside the clothes and is the main element of the functional diagram of the device, as it performs the following functions:

1. Collection of temperature information from temperature sensors.

2. Processing the received data.

3. Issuing to the external indicator or detector a light or digital signal about the current temperature (when the sensors fix the normal temperature).

4. Issuing a light or digital alarm signal to an external indicator or detector (when the sensors record a temperature that has exceeded a critical value).

5. Reception of signals from GPS / Glonass, etc. trackers with location coordinates.

6. Automatic activation of a cell phone when critical temperatures are reached, notifying observers of reaching a critical temperature and / or sending messages about current coordinates.

7. Adjusting the critical temperature of the alarm threshold.

8. Adjustment of volume, brightness, etc. on an external indicator or detector of current temperature or alarm indicators.

The functions of clauses 4, 6 and 7 can be combined in one device, for example, in a cell phone.

A device for controlling the temperature under clothes is used as follows. On outerwear, for example, a jacket 1 or a blanket, an indicator light 2 or a numeric 3 indicator is fixed outside, or a light (pulsating) or sound detector. Inside the clothes, for example, microprocessor module 4 is placed in the pockets, and, if necessary, a cell phone 6 and / or tracker 7. Sensors 5 are installed in places of controlled parts of the body mainly under clothes, as well as in open areas. The temperature values of the internal (under the clothes) air measured by temperature sensors 5 located inside the clothes, via a wired (using flexible connection) or wireless (using a cell phone) connection, are sent to the microprocessor module 4 to the controller that processes the incoming data. Upon receipt of critical temperature data, a corresponding command is sent to turn on indicator 2 and / or the detector, and / or send SMS / MMS messages by the cellular telephone 6, or call the number when “picking up” the phone with a proverb in automatic mode about reaching the critical temperature, and / or sending GPS coordinates, GLONASS, etc. location devices read from tracker 7 at predetermined intervals. Temperature sensors 5, mounted directly on the body, interacting wirelessly with the indicator 2 located on the clothes, transmit indications of the current temperature or instructions to turn on / off the indicator or critical temperature detector. At the same time, the indicator, located in the place most visible to the observers on clothes, is installed with the ability to collect data from all sensors in contact with the body, and with the ability to signal that a critical temperature has been reached in at least one sensor.

The technical result achieved by the proposed device is to simplify visual temperature control, light or sound alerts due to a more rational arrangement of indicators or detectors of critical temperatures, as well as the ability to remotely control critical temperatures wirelessly when using a cell phone with appropriate software.
