US Patent 10212763 Heated glove and method of controlling the heating of glove

A heated glove having a glove structure and a heating assembly. The glove structure includes an inner body having an outer surface, an inner surface defining a cavity with an opening providing ingress into the cavity. The heating assembly has at least one heating zone. The heating zone has a conductive fabric portion, a heating mesh portion and a sensing assembly. The conductive fabric portion has a first circuit portion and a second circuit portion. The two portions have a first end across which a voltage differential can be placed, and second ends that are spaced apart from each other. The heating mesh portion extends between the second ends of the first and second circuit portions so as to be in electrical communication therewith. The sensing assembly has a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is positioned proximate the heating mesh portion to determine a temperature of an area proximate thereto.
