    Abstract: The invention relates to a heating and/or cooling device (10) for delivering heating and/or cooling energy to the body of a living being (28). The heating and/or cooling device (10) comprises a heating and/or cooling pad (12) which can be connected to the body of the person (28). The heating and/or cooling pad has an upper face (122) and a lower face (121), and an adhesive surface (1210) is provided on the lower face (121) for attaching the heating and/or cooling pad (12) to the surface of the skin of the person (28). The heating and/or cooling pad comprises at least one heating and/or cooling element (26) by means of which electrical energy output by an electrical energy source (22) can be converted into heating and/or cooling energy. The heating and/or cooling device (10) further comprises a control unit (14) which is provided for fixedly or detachably accommodating the energy source (22) and has a signal processor (16). Furthermore, the control unit (14) is provided for outputting an open-loop and/or closed-loop control signal, by means of which the energy output from the energy source (22) to the heating and/or cooling element (26) can be controlled. The heating and/or cooling pad (12) and the control unit (14) can be electrically and mechanically connected to one another by at least one electrical connector (18a, 18b), via which the electrical energy can be transmitted to the heating and/or cooling element (26), and by at least one mechanical and/or magnetic connector (20a, 20b).

    Abstract: A knee brace includes: an elastic sleeve; first and second stiffening members coupled together to crisscross to form an X-shape, and secured to a medial side of the sleeve; third and fourth stiffening members similarly coupled together and secured to a lateral side of the sleeve; and a plurality of slits in the sleeve into a corresponding pockets that receive a thermal pack. The thermal packs and pockets are triangular shaped, with two triangular-shaped pockets on the medial side of the sleeve, and two on the lateral side, each disposed in a respective triangular shape positioned between the x-shape of the stiffening members. The pairs of stiffening members are either: fixedly coupled together to store energy when the user bends at the knee, and to expend the stored energy to assist in lifting the user upward; or pivotally coupled together to pivot according to movements of the wearer's knee joint.

    Abstract: The current invention discloses a treatment device having a heat source, a power source and a heat applicator. The power source includes at least one nanotech battery, ensuring superior properties such as prolonged electricity production and prompt recharging. The heat applicator includes a heat conductive layer made from nanofibers, providing highly efficient heat distribution to the targeted regions. The power source provides energy to the heat source, which generates heat so that the applicator may distribute to an injury site or wound bed of a user. The current device may also be used for cooling, instead of heating applications. In addition to the medical utilizations, the current device may also play a central role in other apparatus that require thermal control capabilities.

    Abstract: This invention provides a heating device ensuring sufficient adhesive force, even when it is removed from clothing and then reattached to different clothing. The heating device of the present invention comprises a bag unit 2 containing an exothermic composition A including an oxidizable metal that can generate heat by contact with air, one surface of the bag unit 2 being air-permeable; an adhesive layer 3 formed on the other surface of the bag unit 2; a first release sheet 4 provided on the adhesive layer 3 to cover the adhesive layer 3; and a second release sheet 5 provided on the first release sheet 4 to cover the first release sheet 4, wherein the first release sheet 4 has a release portion 41 and a residual portion 42; when the second release sheet 5 is removed from the first release sheet 4, the release portion 41 is removed together with the second release sheet 5 and the residual portion 42 remains on the adhesive layer 3.
