Definitions
- Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to a fabric or other material used for body gear and other goods having designed performance
- heat reflective materials such as aluminum and mylar typically take the form of a unitary solid film that is glued or otherwise attached to the interior of a garment, such as a jacket.
- the purpose of this layer is to inhibit thermal radiation by reflecting the body heat of the wearer and thereby keeping the garment wearer warm in colder conditions.
- these heat reflective linings do not transfer moisture vapor or allow air passage, thus they trap moisture near the body.
- use of heat reflective materials during physical activity causes the inside of a garment to become wet, thereby causing discomfort and accelerating heat loss due to the increased heat conductivity inherent in wet materials. Further, these heat reflective coated materials impair the ability of the material to stretch, drape, or hang in a desired fashion.

- a material for body gear may use a pattern of heat-directing elements coupled to a base fabric to manage, for example, body heat by directing the heat towards or away from the body as desired, while still maintaining the desired transfer properties of the base fabric.
- a plurality of heat management or heat-directing elements 10 may be disposed on a base fabric 20 in a generally non-continuous array, whereby some of the base fabric is exposed between adjacent heat-directing elements.
- the heat-directing function of the heat-directing elements may be generally towards the body through reflectivity or away from the body through conduction and/or radiation or other heat transfer property.
- the heat-directing elements 10 may cover a sufficient surface area of the base fabric 20 to generate the desired degree of heat management (e.g. heat reflection toward the body to enhance warmth, or heat conductance away from the body to help induce cooling).
- a sufficient area of base fabric may be exposed to provide the desired base fabric function (e.g., stretch, drape, breathability, moisture vapor or air
- the base fabric may be a part of any form of body gear, such as bodywear (see, e.g,. Figures 1A and 4-13), sleeping bags (see, e.g., Figure 14), blankets, tents (see, e.g., Figure 15B), rain flys (see, e.g., Figure 15A) etc.
- bodywear see, e.g,. Figures 1A and 4-13
- sleeping bags see, e.g., Figure 14
- blankets see, e.g., Figure 15B
- rain flys see, e.g., Figure 15A etc.
- Bodywear is defined to include anything worn on the body, including, but not limited to, outerwear such as jackets, pants, scarves, shirts, hats, gloves, mittens, and the like, footwear such as shoes, boots, slippers, and the like, sleepwear, such as pajamas, nightgowns, and robes, and undergarments such as underwear, thermal underwear, socks, hosiery, and the like.
- outerwear such as jackets, pants, scarves, shirts, hats, gloves, mittens, and the like
- footwear such as shoes, boots, slippers, and the like
- sleepwear such as pajamas, nightgowns, and robes
- undergarments such as underwear, thermal underwear, socks, hosiery, and the like.
- single-layer body gear may be used and may be comprised of a single layer of the base fabric, whereas other embodiments may use multiple layers of fabric, including one or more layers of the base fabric, coupled to one or more other layers.
- the base fabric may be used as a fabric lining for body gear.
- the array of heat-directing elements may be disposed on a base fabric having one or more desired properties.
- the underlying base material may have properties such as air permeability, moisture vapor transfer and/or wickability, which is a common need for body gear used in both indoor and outdoor applications.
- the separations between heat-directing elements help allow the base material to have a desired drape, look, and/or texture.
- the separations between heat-directing elements may help allow the base material to stretch.
- Suitable base fabrics may include nylon, polyester, rayon, cotton, spandex, wool, silk, or a blend thereof, or any other material having a desired look, feel, weight, thickness, weave, texture, or other desired property.
- allowing a designated percentage of the base fabric to remain uncovered by the heat-directing elements may allow that portion of the base fabric to perform the desired functions, while leaving enough heat-directing element surface area to direct body heat in a desired direction, for instance away from or toward the body of a user.
- the heat-directing elements may be positioned in such a way and be made of a material that is conducive for directing heat generated by the body.
- the heat-directing elements may be configured to reflect the user's body heat toward the user's body, which may be particularly suitable in cold
- the heat-directing elements may be configured to conduct the user's body heat away from the user's body, which may be particularly suitable in warmer environments.
- the heat-directing elements may be configured to generally reflect the user's body heat towards the user's body, but may also begin to conduct heat away from the user's body when the user begins to overheat.
- the base fabric may include heat-directing elements disposed on an innermost surface of the body gear such that the elements are disposed to face the user's body and thus are in a position to manage body heat, as discussed above (e.g., reflect heat or conduct heat).
- the heat-directing elements may be disposed on the exterior surface of the body gear and/or base fabric such that they are exposed to the environment, which may allow the heat-directing elements, for example, to reflect heat away from the user, while allowing the base fabric to adequately perform the desired functions.
- the heat-directing elements may perform these functions without adversely affecting the stretch, drape, feel, or other properties of the base fabric.
- the heat-directing elements may include an aluminum-based material (particularly suited for reflectivity), chromium-based material (particularly suited for reflectivity), copper based material (particularly suited for conductivity), or another metal or metal alloy-based material.
- Non-metallic or alloy based materials may be used as heat-directing materials in some embodiments, such as metallic plastic, mylar, or other man-made materials, provided that they have heat reflective or conductive properties.
- a heat-directing element may be a holographic heat-directing element, such as a holographic foil or embossed reflective surface.
- the term "holographic heat- directing element" may refer to a generally reflective metallic-colored element, such as a gold-colored, silver-colored, copper-colored, or other shiny metallic-colored element having a thin reflective or metallic layer (for example, from a few angstroms to a few microns thick), wherein the element may reflect heat and/or light in more than one direction.
- a holographic heat-directing element may include a holographic image on its obverse side.
- a holographic image may be produced by a laser-etched holographic foil.
- a holographic element may produce non-specular reflection via an embossed pattern or collection of facets.
- a holographic foil may have a thin layer of adhesive material, such as a heat-sensitive adhesive, on its reverse side, although not all holographic foils include this layer.
- the holographic foil may reflect a characteristic pattern of light when a light beam is directed at it. For instance, in various embodiments, a laser beam directed at a holographic foil of the present disclosure may reflect multiple light beams, such as 6-10 beams of light or even more, depending on the specific holographic pattern used.
- the holographic foil may also reflect other energy waves, other than light.
- the holographic heat-directing elements disclosed herein when located on an interior surface of a piece of body wear, may direct a greater percentage of the body's heat back towards the body of the user, when compared to conventional heat-directing elements. Similarly, in various embodiments, when located on an exterior surface of a piece of body wear, the holographic heat-directing elements disclosed herein may direct a greater percentage of the incident heat away from the body of the user, when compared to conventional heat- directing elements.
- holographic heat-directing elements may not be easily removed in their entireties because of the very thin and fragile nature of the foil.
- holographic heat-directing elements also may serve an additional purpose of serving as an indication of a source for the body wear, for instance, by incorporating a logo or other identifying word or image into the holographic foil, which may make it easier to detect and/or deter counterfeiting in some embodiments.
- the heat-directing elements disclosed herein may be permanently coupled to the base fabric in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to gluing, heat pressing, printing, or stitching.
- the heat- directing elements may be coupled to the base fabric by frequency welding, such as by radio or ultrasonic welding.
- the heat-directing elements may be coupled to the base fabric using a process described in U.S. Patent No. 5,464,690, which is incorporated by reference herein.
- a holographic foil made from a composite sheet having a holographic image applied thereto may be transferred from a carrier film (such as a polyester, polypropylene, or similar material) to a substrate (such as the base fabric disclosed herein) where it may be affixed by an adhesive film opposite the carrier film using a heat-stamping process. Modifications to this process, such as those described in U.S. Patent Nos.
- 5,674,580; 5,643,678; 5,653,349; and 6,638,386, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety, also may be used to affix the holographic heat-directing elements to the base fabric in various embodiments.
- Other embodiments may make use of a holographic thermal transfer ribbon for enabling the transfer of a hologram using a thermal transfer demand printer, as disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,342,672, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- the heat-directing properties of the heat-directing elements may be influenced by the composition of the base fabric or the overall construction of the body gear.
- a base fabric may be used that has significant insulating properties.
- the insulative backing/lining may help limit any conductivity that may naturally occur and enhance the reflective properties of the heat-directing elements.
- the base fabric may provide little or no insulative properties, but may be coupled to an insulating layer disposed on the side of the base fabric opposite the heat-directing material elements. The separate insulation layer may help reduce the potential for heat conductivity of the elements and enhance their reflectivity.
- the heat-directing elements may become more conductive as the air layer between the garment and the wearer becomes more warm and humid. Such examples may be suitable for use in cold weather applications, for instance.
- a base fabric may be used that has little or no insulative properties.
- the base fabric and heat-directing elements may aid in removing excess body heat generated in warmer climates or when engaging in extreme physical activity. Such embodiments may be suitable for warm weather conditions.
- the heat-directing elements may be applied in a pattern or a continuous or discontinuous array defined by the manufacturer.
- heat-directing elements 10 may be a series of dot-like heat reflective (or heat conductive) elements adhered or otherwise secured to the base fabric 20 in a desired pattern.
- Such a configuration has been found to provide heat reflectivity and thus warmth to the user (e.g., when heat reflective elements are used), or, in the alternative, heat conduction and thus cooling to the user (e.g., when heat conductive elements are used), while still allowing the base fabric to perform the function of the desired one or more properties (e.g. breathe and allow moisture vapor to escape through the fabric in order to reduce the level of moisture build up).
- heat-directing elements may be arranged such that they are in connection with one another, such as a lattice pattern or any other pattern that permits partial coverage of the base fabric.
- the configuration or pattern of the heat-directing elements themselves may be selected by the user and may take any one of a variety of forms.
- the configuration of the heat-directing elements 10 disposed on a base fabric 20 used for body gear may be in the form of a variety of geometrical patterns (e.g. lines, waves, triangles, squares, logos, words, etc.)
- the pattern of heat-directing elements may be symmetric, ordered, random, and/or asymmetrical. Further, as discussed below, the pattern of heat-directing elements may be disposed on the base material at strategic locations to improve the performance of the body wear. In various embodiments, the size of the heat-directing elements may also be varied to balance the need for enhanced heat-directing properties and preserve the functionality of the base fabric.
- the density or ratio of the surface area covered by the heat-directing elements to the surface are of base fabric left uncovered by the heat-directing elements may be from about 3:7 (30%) to about 7:3 (70%). In various embodiments, this range has been shown to provide a good balance of heat
- this ratio may be from about 4:6 (40%) to about 6:4 (60%).
- the placement, pattern, and/or coverage ratio of the heat-directing elements may vary.
- the heat-directing elements may be concentrated in certain areas where heat management may be more critical (e.g. the body core) and non existent or extremely limited in other areas where the function of the base fabric property is more critical (e.g. area under the arms or portions of the back for wicking moisture away from the body).
- different areas of the body gear may have different coverage ratios, e.g. 70% at the chest and 30% at the limbs, in order to help optimize, for example, the need for warmth and breathability.
- the size of the heat-directing elements may be largest (or the spacing between them may be the smallest) in the core regions of the body for enhanced reflection or conduction in those areas, and the size of the heat-directing elements may be the smallest (or the spacing between them may be the largest) in peripheral areas of the body.
- the degree of coverage by the heat-directing elements may vary in a gradual fashion over the entire garments as needed for regional heat management. Some embodiments may employ heat reflective elements in some areas and heat conductive elements in other areas of the garment.
- the heat-directing elements may be configured to help resist moisture buildup on the heat-directing elements themselves and further enhance the function of the base fabric (e.g. breathability or moisture wicking).
- the function of the base fabric e.g. breathability or moisture wicking.
- the heat-directing elements may have a maximum dimension (diameter, hypotenuse, length, width, etc.) that is less than or equal to about 1 cm. In some embodiments, the maximum dimension may be between 1 -4 mm. In other embodiments, the largest dimension of a heat-directing element may be as small as 1 mm, or even smaller.
- the size and shape of the heat-directing elements may be selected to suit the particular hologram etched on the foil, for instance a logo, company name, picture, or other insignia.
- the size of the heat-directing element may be selected to be large enough such that the hologram is visible to a user, for instance a holographic font may be large enough to be read without the need for additional equipment.
- a holographic heat-directing element may be about 1 cm or larger, for instance, 2, 3, 4, or even 5 cm.
- Figures 16A- 16D illustrate examples of such holographic patterned heat-directing elements disposed on a base fabric or material in a perspective view ( Figure 16A), in a cross-sectional view (Figure 16B), in a face view ( Figure 16C), and in use in a jacket lining ( Figure 16D);
- Figures 17A and 17B illustrate another example of holographic patterned heat- directing elements disposed on a base fabric or material in a perspective view ( Figure 17A), and in use in a jacket lining ( Figure 17B), all in accordance with various embodiments.
- holographic heat-directing elements may be configured in an inverse pattern from that shown in Figure 1 , with the heat-directing elements forming a lattice or other interconnected pattern, with base fabric appearing as a pattern of dots or other shapes.
- Figures 18A and 18B illustrate a lattice-pattern of holographic patterned heat-directing elements disposed on a base fabric or material in a perspective view ( Figure 18A), and in use in a jacket lining
- the topographic profile of the individual heat-directing elements can be such that moisture is not inclined to adhere to the heat- directing element.
- the heat-directing element may be convex, conical, fluted, or otherwise protruded, which may help urge moisture to flow towards the base fabric.
- the surface of the heat-directing elements may be treated with a compound that may help resist the build up of moisture vapor onto the elements and better direct the moisture to the base fabric without materially impacting the thermal directing property of the elements.
- One such example treatment may be a hydrophobic fluorocarbon, which may be applied to the elements via lamination, spray deposition, or in a chemical bath.
- the heat-directing elements may be removable from the base fabric and reconfigurable if desired using a variety of releasable coupling fasteners such as zippers, snaps, buttons, hook and loop type fasteners (e.g. Velcro), and other detachable interfaces.
- the base material may be formed as a separate item of body gear and used in conjunction with other body gear to improve thermal management of a user's body heat.
- an upper body under wear garment may be composed with heat-directing elements in accordance with various embodiments. This under wear garment may be worn by a user alone, in which case conduction of body heat away from the user's body may typically occur, or in
- the heat-directing elements may be applied to the base fabric such that it is depressed, concave, or recessed relative to the base fabric, such that the surface of the heat-directing element is disposed below the surface of the base fabric.
- This configuration may have the effect of improving, for example, moisture wicking, as the base fabric is the portion of the body gear or body gear lining that engages the user's skin or underlying clothing. Further, such contact with the base fabric may also enhance the comfort to the wearer of the body gear in applications where the skin is in direct contact with the base fabric (e.g. gloves, mittens, underwear, or socks).
- Figures 8-15 illustrate various views of a patterned heat management fabric used in a variety of body gear applications, such as a jacket ( Figures 8A-D), boot ( Figure 9), glove (Figure 10), hat ( Figure 11), pants (Figure 12), sock (Figure 13), sleeping bag (Figure 14), tent rain fly (Figure 15A) and tent ( Figure 15B).
- Each of the body gear pieces illustrated include a base material 20 having a plurality of heat- directing elements 10 disposed thereon.
- the heat-directing elements may be used on the outside of body gear, for instance to reflect or direct heat exposed to the outside surface of the gear.
- base fabric and heat reflective elements such as those illustrated in Figures 1 B-3E, may be applied to an outer or exterior surface of the body gear, such as a coat, sleeping bag, tent or tent rain fly, etc in order to reflect heat away from the user.
- the body gear may be reversible, such that a user may determine whether to use the fabric to direct heat toward the body or away from the body.
- An example of such reversible body gear is illustrated in Figure 15A.
- the heat-directing elements may be included on one side of a tent rain fly.
- the rain fly may be used with the heat-directing elements facing outward, for example in hot weather or sunny conditions, in order to reflect heat away from the body of the tent user.
- the tent rain fly may be reversed and installed with the heat-directing elements facing inward, toward the body of a user, so as to reflect body heat back toward the tent interior.
- Figure 15B illustrates an example wherein at least a portion of the tent body includes a fabric having a plurality of heat-directing elements disposed thereon.
- the heat reflective elements are facing outward and may be configured to reflect heat away from the tent and thus away from the body of the tent user.
- the elements may be configured to face inward.
