ABSTRACT:
A fabric headband which incorporates a replaceable thermal cartridge and is integrated with a miniature radio set whereby when the band is worn about the head as a crown, it then provides beneficial thermal effects as the wearer listens to the radio through a pair of earphones which depend from the crown. The headband is constituted by a central pouch adapted to receive both the cartridge and a flexible card in front thereof having a metallized face, and a pair of hollow fabric wings extending from opposite ends of the pouch. When the band is encircled about the head and the wings are joined to define the crown, the cartridge in the pouch then lies in heat-exchange relationship with the brow of the wearer. Disposed in one wing is the miniature radio set in a flat format which is powered from a small battery pack disposed in the other wing, the antenna terminal of the radio being connected to the metallized face of the card which serves both as the antenna and as a back reflector for radiation emanating from the cartridge. Connected to the audio output of the set are a pair of flexible lines, one going out of one wing and terminating in one earphone, the other going out of the other wing and terminating in the other earphone.
