Thermoelectric panels

Claim 1

A THERMOELECTRIC PANEL COMPRISING; A FIRST, RELATIVELY RIGID, PLATE; A SECOND, RELATIVELY RIGID, PLATE SECURD IN SPACED RELATION WITH SAID FIRST PLATE; A RELATIVELY FLEXIBLE PLATE DISPOSED BETWEEN AND IN SPACED RELATION WITH SAID FIRST AND SECOND RIGID PLATED; A PLURALITY OF THERMOELECTRIC ELEMENTS, HVING DISSIMILAR THERMOLECTRIC POWER, CONNECTED TO FORM THERMOELECTRIC JUNCTIONS OF DIFFERING TYPES, DISPOSED BETWEEN SAID FIRST RIGID PLATE AND SAID FLEXIBLE PLATE, SO THAT JUNCTIONS OF ONE TYPE ARE EACH DISPOSED ADJACENT SAID ONE RIGID PLATE AND JUNCTIONS OF ANOTHER TYPE ARE EACH DISPOSED ADJACENT SAID FLEXIBLE PLATE; ELECTRICAL INSULATION MEANS DISPOSED BETWEEN SAID THERMOELECTRIC ELEMENTS AND SAID FIRST PLATE AND BETWEEN SAID THERMOELECTRIC ELEMENTS AND SAID FLEXIBLE PLATE; A PLURALITY OF COMPRESSED ELASTOMERIC PRESSURE APPLYING PAD MEMBERS DISPOSED BETWEEN SAID SECOND RIGID PLATE AND SAID FLEXIBLE PLATE BEARING AGAINST SAID SECOND PLATE; A PLURALITY OF HEAT CONDUCTING, RIGID, EXTENDED, HEAT TRANSFER ELEMENTS, EACH OF SAID HEAT TRANSFER ELEMENTS BEING SECURED IN ENGAGEMENT WITH ONE OF SAID ELASTOMERIC PAD MEMBERS, SAID HEAT TRANSFER MEMBERS BEARING AGAINST SAID FLEXIBLE PLATE TO TRANSMIT THE COMPRESSIVE FORCE EXERTED BY SAID COMPRESSED ELASTOMERIC PAD MEMBER TO SAID THERMOELECTRIC ELEMENTS, THEREBY ADAPTING TO THERMAL CHANGES IN SAID THERMOELECTRIC PANEL; AND PASSAGE MEANS TO PASS A COOLING FLUID THROUGH THE SPACE BETWEEN SAID SECOND RIGID PLATE AND SAID FLEXIBLE PLATE IN CONTACT WITH SAID EXTENDED HEAT TRANSFER MEMBERS, TO INHIBIT THE PASSAGE OF HEAT FROM SAID FLEXIBLE PLATE TO SAID ELASTOMERIC PADS.
