Abstract

Purpose

Breast cancer has become the largest cancer in the world today. Health problems for women with breast cancer need to be addressed urgently. This study aims to select the best method for preparing temperature-sensitive sports underwear, and to verify the feasibility of using K-type thermocouple threads in underwear fabrics.

Design/methodology/approach

In the experiments, two samples were designed for temperature-sensitive performance tests and the effects produced by different outer layer structures were investigated. In the second step, K-type thermocouple wires were integrated into sports underwear. The comfort and feasibility of the temperature-sensitive underwear were investigated.

Findings

It was finally verified to obtain the best comfort and temperature-sensing performance of K-type thermocouple filaments integrated into sports underwear with plain stitching.

Originality/value

The underwear has a certain prospect for the application of smart apparel based on breast cancer health monitoring, which is of some significance for monitoring smart apparel.

用于乳房监测的体温感应内衣的开发与应用

目的乳腺癌已成为当今世界上最大的癌症。女性乳腺癌患者的健康问题亟待解决。本研究旨在选择制备感温运动内衣的最佳方法，并验证在内衣面料中使用 K 型热电偶线的可行性。在实验中，设计了两个样品进行感温性能测试，并研究了不同外层结构产生的影响。第二步，在运动内衣中加入 K 型热电偶线。研究结果最终验证了将 K 型热电偶丝集成到运动内衣中，并采用平针缝制，获得了最佳的舒适性和感温性能。原创性/价值该内衣在基于乳腺癌健康监测的智能服装应用方面具有一定的前景，对监测智能服装具有一定的意义。
