Abstract
This invention relates to a device for humidifying a textile electrode (1) comprising a first layer (3); a second layer (5); and a material capable of absorbing and retaining water (4); wherein the material capable of absorbing and retaining water (4) is located between the first layer (3) and the second layer (5); the first layer (3) is impermeable to liquid water and water vapour; and the second layer (5) is permeable to liquid water in a direction extending inwards towards the material capable of absorbing and retaining water, and is impermeable to liquid water and permeable to water vapour in the opposite direction thereto. This invention further relates to a system comprising such a humidification device.
Claims10
A device for humidifying a textile electrode comprising:
- a first layer;
- a second layer;
- and
- a material capable of absorbing and retaining water;
- wherein the material capable of absorbing and retaining water is located between the first layer and the second layer;
- the first layer is impermeable to liquid water and water vapour;
- and
- the second layer having a first portion that is arranged to be in contact with a conductive area of a textile support, the first portion being permeable to liquid water in a direction extending inwards towards the material capable of absorbing and retaining water, and is impermeable to liquid water and permeable to water vapour in the opposite direction thereto.
A system comprising:
- a device comprising:
- a first layer;
- a second layer;
- and
- a material capable of absorbing and retaining water, wherein the material capable of absorbing and retaining water is located between the first layer and the second layer;
- the first layer is impermeable to liquid water and water vapour;
- and
- the second layer having a first portion that is arranged to be in contact with a conductive area of a textile support, the first portion being permeable to liquid water in a direction extending inwards towards the material capable of absorbing and retaining water, and is impermeable to liquid water and permeable to water vapour in the opposite direction thereto;
- and a textile support comprising a conductive area, wherein the conductive area forms a textile electrode, wherein the textile support is connected to the device such that the conductive area is in contact with the second layer.
