Description

Temperature-adjustable clothing

This creation is about a functional garment, and in particular with a temperature-regulating garment.

In order to adapt to different climate changes across the globe, organisms have evolved methods to maintain their body temperature to maintain optimal physiology of temperature-sensitive protein molecules (especially enzymes). Human beings are also members of warm-blooded animals. In order to maintain body temperature, humans usually use the expansion or contraction of blood vessels on the body surface to control the rate of body temperature loss to regulate body temperature. Generally, when the core, the core body temperature is too high. At the time, the blood vessels of the human body surface expand, so the excessive heat of vital organs such as the heart, the kidneys, and the liver is carried by the blood to the microvessels of the body surface to dissipate heat by the blood circulation. Conversely, when the core body temperature is too low, the microvessels of the human body surface will shrink, so that the heat will concentrate on the organs of vital organs of the human body to maintain the efficiency of the physiological mechanism in the human body. In addition, the human body more often through the perspiration to the body surface, relying on sweat evaporation to take away too much body heat to achieve the purpose of cooling. Under certain severe conditions, such as outdoor worksites in summer, steel foundries, or engineering vehicles without air conditioning, workers must endure high-temperature working conditions, which can easily cause heatstroke and even heat exhaustion.
