The conductive structure can be used as a connection pad of the electronic component, so that the electronic component can be electrically connected to the conductive fabric module. In addition, the conductive fabric module can be combined with the apparel to become a smart garment, so that the smart garment can be functional through the array of electronic components of the conductive fabric module. Furthermore, when the electronic component of the electronic component array is a light-emitting diode, the smart apparel can exhibit a flickering effect. On the other hand, by setting the receiver, the smart clothing can also display the stored image file or the image file input in real time through the electronic component array of the conductive fabric module.

Please refer to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B , wherein FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B respectively show a top view and a side view of the conductive fabric module 110 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The conductive fabric module 110 can be used in conjunction with a wearable garment to provide an electrical connection point for the garment to be worn with electronic components, wherein the conductive fabric module 110 includes a base yarn layer 112 and at least two conductive yarns 118.

The base yarn layer 112 includes a plurality of weft yarns 114 and a plurality of warp yarns 116, wherein the plurality of weft yarns 114 are arranged in parallel in the warp direction, and the plurality of warp yarns 116 are alternately arranged in the weft direction and the weft yarns 114 to form the base yarn layer 112. The weft yarn 114 and the warp yarn 116 may be a combination of a conductive yarn and an insulating yarn, for example, the weft yarn 114 is a conductive yarn and the warp yarn 116 is an insulating yarn; or, the weft yarn 114 is an insulating yarn and the warp yarn 116 is a conductive yarn; Yes, both the weft yarn 114 and the warp yarn 116 are insulated yarns. In some embodiments, the weft yarn 114 may also include conductive yarns and insulating yarns, or the warp yarns 116 may include conductive yarns and insulating yarns.

Each of the conductive yarns 118 is arranged in the weft direction and interlaced with the weft yarns 114 in a yarn skipping manner. In other words, the conductive yarns 118 and the warp yarns 116 are all arranged in parallel in the weft direction, and the conductive yarns 118 and the warp yarns 116 are arranged in a staggered arrangement. In addition, since the conductive yarn 118 is interlaced with the weft yarn 114 in a yarn skipping manner, a portion of the conductive yarn 118 may be convex across the plurality of weft yarns 114 such that the conductive yarn 118 may be formed to protrude from the base yarn layer. The conductive structure 120 of the surface of 112.

Further, the conductive yarn 118 has a valley 124 hidden in the base yarn layer 112 and a peak 122 exposed to the base yarn layer 112, wherein the peak 122 exposed to the base yarn layer 112 can serve as the conductive structure 120. In the present embodiment, since the width of the wave crest 122 is larger than the width of the trough 124, when the conductive fabric module 110 is finished, the retractability of the yarn itself can be transmitted to cause the peak 122 of the conductive yarn 118. The surface of the base yarn layer 112 is raised to form a conductive structure 120 protruding from the surface of the base yarn layer 112. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. When the conductive yarn 118 is disposed, the length of the conductive yarn 118 at the peak 122 may be greater than the length at the valley 124 by, for example, an over-feeding weaving method. The ratio of the width of the peak 122 and the trough 124 The conductive structure 120 protruding from the surface of the base yarn layer 112 can be formed for one to one. In other words, the present invention does not particularly limit the aspect ratio of the peaks 122 and the troughs 124, as long as the technical means for forming the conductive yarns 118 to form the conductive structures 120 fall within the scope of the present invention. Further, in the present embodiment, the conductive yarns 118 are skipped at equal intervals. For example, in FIG. 1B, the peaks 122 of the conductive yarns 118 span across the three weft yarns 114, and the valleys 124 of the conductive yarns 118 span. A weft yarn 114. However, in other embodiments, the number of weft yarns spanned by the peaks or valleys of the conductive yarns 118 may vary, that is, the scope of the invention includes yarn skipping in an unequal manner.

By this configuration, the conductive structure 120 formed by the conductive yarn 118 can be used as a connection point of an electronic component (not shown) so that the electronic component can be electrically connected to the conductive fabric module 110. In other words, the conductive structure 120 protruding from the surface of the base yarn layer 112 can be used as an electrical connection point of the pins of the electronic component, that is, the conductive structure 120 can be used as a connection pad of the electronic component. In addition, in the present embodiment, the peaks 122 of each of the conductive yarns 118 and the peaks 122 of the immediately adjacent conductive yarns 118 are aligned with each other in the direction in which the conductive yarns 118 are arranged, so that the conductive structures 120 formed by the two adjacent conductive yarns 118 are adjacent to each other. The alignment of the conductive yarns 118 is also aligned with each other, however, the conductive fabric module of the present invention is not limited thereto. In addition, the adjacent two conductive yarns 118 may be separated by warp yarns 116 such that there is at least one warp yarn 116 between each two adjacent conductive yarns 118.

On the other hand, since the number of the conductive yarns 118 is at least two, the formed conductive structures 120 can be used as the positive and negative pin connection pads of the electronic component, respectively. For example, in FIG. 1A, the conductive structures 120A-120D are respectively formed of four conductive yarns 118A-118D, that is, the conductive structure 120A. It is formed of conductive yarn 118A, conductive structure 120B is formed of conductive yarn 118B, conductive structure 120C is formed of conductive yarn 118C, and conductive structure 120D is formed of conductive yarn 118D. In this configuration, the conductive structures 120A-120D can each provide different potentials. For example, the conductive structure 120A can be used to provide a positive potential, and the conductive structure 120B can be used to provide a negative potential such that it is connected to the conductive structure 120A and the conductive structure 120B. The electronic components between them can generate a bias voltage, which in turn generates current to conduct the electronic components.

In some embodiments, the electronic component may be a light emitting component, a communication component, a sensing component, an energy module, or an integrated circuit component, wherein the light emitting component may be a light emitting diode, and wherein the energy module may be a solar cell or Thermal capacitance. Alternatively, one skilled in the art can adjust the number of conductive yarns 118 in accordance with the electronic components used. For example, when the selected electronic component is an integrated circuit component, since the integrated circuit component has a plurality of pins, the number of conductive yarns 118 can be adjusted in accordance with the number of pins of the integrated circuit component. Further, if the number of pins of the integrated circuit component is six, the number of conductive yarns 118 can be adjusted to six.

The material of the conductive yarn 118 comprises conductive fibers, which may comprise two or more kinds of conductive materials or may be formed by mutually twisting two or more conductive fibers having different degrees of conductivity. However, the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the conductive yarn 118 may also be composed of a single type of conductive fiber.

In summary, the conductive fabric module of the present invention comprises a base yarn layer and a conductive yarn. The conductive yarn may protrude from the surface of the base yarn layer to form a conductive structure, wherein the conductive structure may serve as a connection pad of the electronic component, so that the electronic component can be electrically connected to the conductive fabric module. In addition, the base yarn layer may be at least a double layer structure. Please see the instructions below.

2 and 3, wherein FIG. 2 is a side view showing a conductive fabric module 210 according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a conductive fabric module according to a third embodiment of the present invention. A side view of 310. The conductive fabric module 210/310 of the second embodiment/third embodiment is different from the conductive fabric module 110 of the first embodiment in that the conductive fabric module 210/310 of the second embodiment/third embodiment The base yarn layers 212/312 can be a multi-layer structure.

In Fig. 2, the base yarn layer 212 is a two-layer structure which is formed by stacking two layers of base yarn layers 112 as shown in Fig. 1B, wherein the base yarn layer 212 further comprises a connecting yarn 217. The connecting yarn 217 can be joined to each layer structure of the base yarn layer 212. The conductive yarn 218 is interwoven with the uppermost layer (ie, the outermost layer) of the base yarn layer 212 and protrudes from the surface of the structure to form the conductive structure 220. In Fig. 3, the base yarn layer 312 is a three-layer structure which is formed by stacking three layers of the base yarn layers 112 as shown in Fig. 1B. Similarly, the connecting yarns 317 can be joined to the respective layers of the base yarn layer 312, wherein the conductive yarns 318 are interwoven with the uppermost (i.e., the outermost) structure of the base yarn layer 312 and protrude from the surface of the structure to form the conductive structure 320.

Please refer to FIG. 4 , wherein FIG. 4 is a top view of the conductive fabric module 410 according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. The difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that the number of the conductive yarns 418 of the present embodiment is at least four, and each of the conductive structures 420 is composed of at least two conductive yarns 418 adjacent to each other. In other words, each of the connection pads for electrically connecting to the electronic components is formed by two conductive yarns 418 adjacent to each other. For example, in FIG. 4, two adjacent conductive yarns 418A and conductive yarn 418B together form a conductive structure 420A. In addition, guide Electrical structure 420A can serve as a connection pad that provides a positive potential, while conductive structure 420B can serve as a connection pad that provides a negative potential. In this configuration, the contact area of the connection pad with the electronic component can be increased, thereby improving the reliability of the electronic component being connected to the conductive fabric module 410.

Please refer to FIG. 5 , wherein FIG. 5 is a top view of the conductive fabric module 510 according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the peak of each conductive yarn 518 (such as the peak of FIG. 1B) and the peak of the adjacent conductive yarn 518 (such as the peak of FIG. 1B) are arranged in the conductive yarn 518. The directions are not aligned such that the conductive structure 120 can exhibit a misaligned wave shape. For example, the peak of the conductive yarn 518A and the peak of the conductive yarn 518B are not aligned in the direction in which the conductive yarns 518 are arranged. In other words, by adjusting the position of the peak of the conductive yarn 518 protruding from the base yarn layer 512, the position of the conductive structure 520 of the conductive fabric module 510 can be designed to correspond to the position of the connected electronic component.

In addition, the present embodiment can also be combined with the first embodiment such that the conductive structures of a portion of the conductive fabric module are designed to be aligned with each other (as in FIG. 1A), while the other portion of the conductive structure is designed to be misaligned. Wavy (as in Figure 5). The following description will further illustrate the application of the conductive fabric module of the present invention in that the conductive fabric module is combined with the apparel to become a smart garment.

Please refer to FIG. 6A, wherein FIG. 6A is a perspective view of the smart apparel 600 according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention. The smart apparel 600 includes an apparel body 630 and a conductive fabric module 610, wherein the conductive fabric module 610 is coupled to the apparel body 630. In this embodiment, the conductive fabric module 610 further includes a controller 640, wherein the controller 640 is electrically connected to the conductive yarn 618 of the conductive fabric module 610, and the controller 640 can be used to control the conductive yarn 618. The potential of the electrically conductive structure formed by the electrical yarn 618. Please see the instructions below.

6B and FIG. 6C, FIG. 6B is a perspective view showing the conductive fabric module 610 of the smart garment 600 according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6C is a view of the present invention. 6 is a top view of the conductive fabric module 610 of the smart garment 600 of the sixth embodiment, and the conductive fabric module 610 depicted in FIGS. 6B and 6C is one of the conductive fabrics of the smart garment 600 of FIG. 6A. Part of the structure of the module 610.

6B and 6C, the difference between the structure of the conductive fabric module 610 and the conductive fabric module 110 of the first embodiment is that the conductive fabric module 610 in the embodiment further includes an electronic component array 650. The electronic component array 650 includes a plurality of electronic components 652. In addition, the controller 640 (see FIG. 6A) can be electrically connected to the electronic component 652 through the conductive yarn 618 and the conductive structure 620.

Each of the electronic components 652 includes a first pin and a second pin, and the first pin and the second pin of the electronic component 652 are electrically connected to the conductive structure 620 formed by the two conductive yarns 618, respectively. For example, the electronic component 652A in FIG. 6C has a first pin P1 and a second pin P2, wherein the first pin P1 is electrically connected to the conductive structure 620A, and the second pin P2 is electrically connected to the conductive structure 620B. . The electronic component 652 can be secured to the conductive structure 520 by stitching. For example, the first pin P1 and the second pin P2 of the electronic component 652 can each have a hole (not shown), and the conductive yarn 618 can pass through each hole and bypass the first pin P1 and the second pin. The foot P2 is used to secure the electronic component 652 to the conductive structure 620; alternatively, the electronic component 652 may have no holes, and the conductive yarn 618 may directly wrap around the pin to secure the electronic component 652 to the conductive structure 620. In other real In the embodiment, the electronic component 652 can also be directly fixed on the conductive structure 620 by an encapsulant (not shown).

Further, the electronic component 652 can be a light emitting component such as a light emitting diode. As described above, the conductive yarn 618A forming the conductive structure 620A can be electrically connected to a positive potential, and the conductive yarn 618B forming the conductive structure 620B can be electrically connected to a negative potential. Therefore, when the electronic component 652A is a light-emitting diode, the light-emitting diode can be driven to emit light by generating a bias voltage. Moreover, since the potential of the conductive yarn 618 and the conductive structure 620 formed therewith is controlled by the controller 640 (see FIG. 6A), the driving of the light-emitting diodes across the conductive structure 620 is controlled by the controller 640 ( See Figure 6A for control.

In addition, the number of conductive yarns 618 depicted in FIGS. 6B and 6C is four, and the four conductive yarns 618 are not in direct contact. In this configuration, the electronic components 652 and the driving crosses that drive the conductive structures 620A and 620B are driven. The electronic components 652 of the conductive structures 620C and 620D are independent of each other. In other words, the electronic components 652 across the 620C and 620D can be driven without driving the electronic components 652 that bridge the conductive structures 620A and 620B. That is, when the electronic component 652 is a light emitting diode, the electronic component array 650 can have different dynamic light and dark distributions such that the electronic component array 650 can present a scintillation image or pattern. For example, in the first moment, the light-emitting diodes connecting the conductive structures 620A and 620B are illuminated, and the light-emitting diodes across the conductive structures 620C and 620D are not illuminated, and then, in the second moment, the jumper The light emitting diodes of the conductive structures 620A and 620B are not illuminated, and the light emitting diodes across the conductive structures 620C and 620D do not emit light.

In addition, although the number of conductive yarns drawn in Figures 6B and 6C is Four, however, as long as the number of conductive yarns is at least three, the electronic component array can have different dynamic light and dark distributions. For example, one of the three conductive yarns is kept at a low potential, and the other two conductive yarns can be made to have different dynamic light and dark distributions of the electronic component array by switching the high/low potential.

In addition, when the electronic component 652 is a light emitting diode, the electronic component array 650 may include light emitting diodes of at least two colors, for example, the light emitting diodes connecting the conductive structures 620A and 620B are red, and The light emitting diodes across the conductive structures 620C and 620D are blue. As described above, since the electronic component array 650 can have different dynamic light and dark distributions, when the light emitting diodes have different colors, the electronic component array 650 can have dynamic light and dark distribution of different colors, so that the electronic component array 650 Not only can a flashing image or pattern be rendered, but the flashing image or pattern can also be colored. That is, the color and light-dark distribution exhibited by the electronic component array 650 can be time-varying.

In summary, when the conductive fabric module of the present invention is combined with the apparel to become a smart garment, the smart garment can be functional through the array of electronic components of the conductive fabric module. For example, when the electronic component array of the conductive fabric module includes a plurality of electronic components, and the electronic component is a light-emitting diode, the smart clothing can exhibit a flickering effect. Moreover, when a plurality of light-emitting diodes have at least two colors, the smart-type clothing can further exhibit a flickering effect of different colors. In addition, the electronic component array of the conductive fabric module can also form an image through a plurality of light-emitting diodes, as described below.

7A and 7B, wherein FIG. 7A is a front view of the smart apparel 700 of the seventh embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 7B is a conductive fabric mold of the smart apparel 700 of FIG. 7A. The top view of group 710 is schematic Figure. The difference between this embodiment and the sixth embodiment is that the conductive fabric module 710 of the present embodiment further includes a receiver 760. The receiver 760 is disposed on the garment body 730 and electrically connected to the controller 740 through the conductive yarn 718 of the conductive fabric module 710. The receiver 760 is configured to receive the image signal and translate the image signal, and display the translated image signal through the electronic component array 750. The electronic component 752 of the electronic component array 750 is a light emitting diode.

The smart apparel 700 can display images by the array of electronic components 750 of the conductive fabric module 710. Further, the user can establish a connection with the receiver 760 through a handheld device, such as a mobile phone, a tablet or a notebook computer, and then transmit the image signal on the handheld device to the receiver 760. After the receiver 760 receives the image signal, the image signal is transmitted to the controller 740, and the controller 740 can translate and address the image signal to determine which electronic components 752 in the electronic component array 750 are driven. For example, the user can transmit the smile mark to the smart clothing 700 through the handheld device, so that the conductive fabric module 710 of the smart clothing 700 can present the pattern 770A through the electronic component array 750.

Similarly, in the electronic component array 750 of the conductive fabric module 710 illustrated in FIG. 7B, the electronic component array 750 may include light emitting diodes of at least two colors, so that the electronic component array can display a color image. In addition, the controller 740 can dynamically control the electronic component array 750, that is, the controller 740 can provide the electronic component array 750 drive timing such that the electronic component array 750 can present a dynamic image. In other words, if the source of the image signal received by the receiver 760 is a motion image, the controller 740 can translate the image signal into a driving sequence so that the electronic component 752 of the electronic component array 750 can correspondingly present the motion image.

In addition, the smart apparel 700 can also instantly display images through the electronic component array 750 of the conductive fabric module 710. For example, when the smart apparel 700 displays the pattern 770A as shown in FIG. 7A, the user can change the image displayed by the smart apparel 700 through the handheld device. Further, the smart apparel 700 can instantly change the displayed graphic according to the image signal transmitted by the user, for example, when the user captures the image of the plaid pattern by using the handheld device, and transmits the image to the receiver 760. Thereafter, the smart apparel 700 can display the plaid pattern in real time through the electronic component array 750, as shown by the pattern 770B of FIG. 7C, wherein FIG. 7C is a front view of an operation mode of the smart apparel 700 of FIG. 7A. .

Alternatively, after the receiver 760 is connected to the handheld device, the smart apparel 700 can also display the screen of the handheld device through the electronic component array 750. For example, when the user uses the handheld device to query the weather, the smart apparel 700 can synchronously present the screen of the handheld device, as shown by the pattern 770C of FIG. 7D, wherein the 7D image is another of the smart apparel 700 of FIG. 7A. A front view of the operating mode.

In other words, the smart clothing can display pictures, videos or text through the electronic component array of the conductive fabric module, wherein the displayed image can be a stored file (that is, stored in the controller) or input instantly. file. In addition, the smart clothing can use the clothing network technology to display the physiological information of the smart clothing through the electronic component array of the conductive fabric module into an image. In addition, although the body of the garment depicted in FIG. 7A is a top garment, the body of the garment is not limited thereto, and the garment body may be other wearing garments or accessories.

For example, please see Figure 8 and Figure 9, where Figure 8 FIG. 9 is a schematic perspective view showing the smart clothing 800 according to the eighth embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing the smart clothing 900 according to the ninth embodiment of the present invention. The difference between the smart clothing 800/900 of the eighth embodiment/ninth embodiment and the smart clothing 700 of the seventh embodiment is that the clothing body 730 of the smart clothing 700 of the seventh embodiment is a top, and the eighth embodiment The clothing body 830 of the smart clothing 800 of the embodiment is a shoe, and the clothing body 930 of the smart clothing 900 of the ninth embodiment is a backpack.

In Fig. 8, the clothing body 830 of the smart clothing 800 is a shoe, and the conductive fabric module 810 is also coupled to the clothing body. For example, when the sides of the shoe have a logo pattern, the conductive fabric module 810 can be bonded to the logo pattern of the shoe. In this configuration, as described above, the user can change the image presented by the conductive fabric module 810 through the handheld device.
