US Patent 12059371 Ocular region heat transfer devices and associated systems and methods

Wearable heat transfer devices and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a representative heat transfer device can comprise (i) a thermoelectric component (TEC) including a first side configured to be operated at a desired temperature and a second side opposite the first side, (ii) a thermally conductive contact member thermally coupled to the TEC, and (iii) a heat transfer system configured to distribute heat from the TEC. The heat transfer system includes a heat transfer structure thermally coupled to the TEC, and a heat exchanger thermally coupled to the heat transfer structure.
