Heated Blanket
A heated blanket is a blanket with integrated heating elements, typically electrical wires, used to provide warmth.
Material
- Fabric: Commonly made from polyester, fleece, microplush, or sherpa for softness and insulation. Higher-end models may utilize materials like cashmere or wool.
- Heating Elements: Usually consist of thin, flexible electrical wires embedded within the fabric. These wires generate heat when electricity passes through them.
- Control Unit: A separate unit connected to the blanket via a cord, regulating temperature settings and often featuring safety features like automatic shut-off.
Purpose
The primary purpose of a heated blanket is to provide localized warmth. They are used for:
- Personal Comfort: Warming beds, couches, or individuals directly.
- Pain Relief: Soothing sore muscles and joints.
- Therapeutic Use: Providing warmth for individuals with medical conditions affecting circulation.
Function
Heated blankets function by converting electrical energy into heat through the resistance of the embedded wires. The control unit allows users to adjust the heat level, typically ranging from low to high, and often includes pre-set temperature options. Modern blankets utilize safety mechanisms to prevent overheating and electrical hazards.
Usage Scenarios
- Bedrooms: Pre-warming beds before sleep, providing warmth throughout the night.
- Living Rooms: Providing comfort while relaxing on couches or armchairs.
- Travel: Portable heated blankets are available for use in cars, camping, or other travel situations.
- Outdoor Events: Providing warmth at sporting events or while watching outdoor activities.
Common Types
- Electric Blankets: The most common type, requiring an electrical outlet to operate. Available in twin, full, queen, and king sizes.
- Dual Control Electric Blankets: Feature separate controls for each side of the blanket, allowing individuals to customize their temperature.
- Microplush Heated Blankets: Utilize microplush fabric for enhanced softness and comfort.
- Sherpa Heated Blankets: Feature sherpa lining for superior warmth and insulation.
- USB Heated Blankets: Smaller, portable blankets powered by USB connections, suitable for limited areas or travel.
- Throw Blankets: Smaller heated blankets designed for individual use on couches or armchairs.
- Heated Mattress Pads: Placed under a mattress, providing warmth directly to the sleeping surface. (Often categorized separately, but related.)
Heated blankets are generally classified as electric blankets designed for providing warmth.
