4D DWF® Technology (please see fig. C)
This electric foot warmer utilizes WELLCARE’s recent and the most
innovative technology – 4D DWF®. While this technology pioneers in the
flexible heating industry, its production process is also the state of the art
Our physical living environment consists of three dimensions, width,
length, and depth; hence, the term “3D”. As Wellcare introduces to you
the 4D DWF® technology, the “temperature” brought to you by dynamic
flow of warmth is the definition of the fourth dimension. 4D DWF®
employs concepts of breathing system which creates full-body heat
circulation for heat to disperse evenly, thoroughly, and quickly. The heat
is generated by heating elements, builds up and gathers around several
hundred uniquely designed circular holes. Through these holes, the heat
flows bi-directionally to create a gentle heat flow and the thermal energy
can flow rapidly to warm up human bodies.
There are many benefits of this innovative technology :
• Better breathability
• Rapid heating
• Higher temperature
• Uniquely designed holes to provide 360° warmth circulation
• Greater heat distributing area
• Eective heat transmission
• Strands of warmth flow retain air moisture
• Warmth kept at a constant temperature
• Energy saving

Vorstellung der patentierten 4D-DWF®-Technologie (siehe Abb. C)
Der elektrische Fußwärmer verfügt über die neue und innovative 4D
DWF®-Technologie von Wellcare. Die wegweisende Heiztechnologie
wird mit einem für die Branche völlig neuen Produktionsverfahren
hergestellt.
Unsere Umgebung besteht aus drei Dimensionen – Breite, Höhe und
Tiefe – kurz ”3D” genannt. Mit der dynamischen Wärmverteilung der
neuen 4D-DWF®-Technologie bringt Wellcare eine vierte Dimension:
Temperatur. Das atmungsaktive System sorgt für eine schnellere und
gleichmäßigere Hitzeverteilung über die gesamte Fläche. Die spezielle
Oberflächenform sorgt dafür, dass die von Heizelementen erzeugte
Wärme um die zahllosen Perforierungen angestaut wird. Der in beide
Richtungen durch die Löcher fließende Luftstrom erzeugt dann einen
leichten Wärmefluss, der den Körper schneller erwärmt.
Diese neuartige Technologie bietet folgende Vorteile:
• Bessere Atmungsaktivität
• Schnelles Erwärmen
• Höhere Temperaturen
• Einzigartiges Lochdesign für eine vollständige Wärmezirkulation
• Großflächigere Wärmeverteilung
• Wirksame Wärmeübertragung
• Gleichbleibende Luftfeuchtigkeit aufgrund von Wärmefluss
• Konstante Temperatur
• Energiesparend
