1 year, 8 months agoClimfeet insoles can heat or cool your feet without further energy than your own footsteps
SoleCooler aims the market of protection of the feet and hands, against severe cold or hot weather. The principle adopted by the SoleCooler's patent is based on thermodynamics and in particular on the Carnot cycle. Air is firstly compressed. During compression, the air heats up naturally (it's like warming up as you watch your bicycle pump). Once compressed, the air is expanded through the nozzle and cools naturally (like when you deflate your car tire: the air coming out is much colder while the tire is hot). To reproduce these phenomena in an insole we designed and patented a new process: closed cells of which comprise two parts made in two different materials and joined by a perfectly calibrated nozzle (in the image of a rocket nozzle). Part is very flexible and will allow thanks to the pressure of the foot, compressing the air trapped in the second portion that is less flexible. Once the foot is raised, the compressed air goes back into the flexible portion through the nozzle and therefore cools naturally. Military, workers under severe conditions (firemen, cold storage workers ...) but also joggers, runners ... and people with certain medical conditions affecting feet and hands like diabetics are our priority.

Climfeet insoles can heat or cool your feet without further energy than your own footsteps
Inspirée par la nature, activée par vos pas CLIMFEET est la seule semelle chauffante sans batterie et réversible (semelle rafraîchissante). Solecooler a développé une semelle fine et confortable composée de centaines d’alvéoles souples et remplies d’air, qui transforment l’énergie mécanique de vos propres pas en chaleur et en fraîcheur, telle une pompe à chaleur. L’impact de vos pieds sur le sol va comprimer l’air des alvéoles et donc le chauffer sur une face ; en relevant le pied, les alvéoles vont reprendre leurs formes, l’air va alors se détendre et donc refroidir sur l’autre face. Idéales pour les sportifs amateurs ou de haut niveau, les travailleurs du BTP, des entrepôts frigorifiques, les agriculteurs, les pompiers, les militaires.
