[0027] Please see Figure 1-2 This embodiment provides an ear-covering surgical cap, which includes a surgical cap body 1, the surgical cap body 1 including a head covering part 11 and a cheek sealing edge 12. The front side of the head covering part 11 has an arc-shaped facial opening along the forehead and both cheeks. The head covering part 11 fits snugly against the head. An adjustable elastic band is provided from the back of the neck to the chin of the head covering part 11. The cheek sealing edge 12 is thicker than the head covering part 11. The cheek sealing edge 12 is "n"-shaped and is connected to the arc-shaped facial opening along the cheek. The top of the cheek sealing edge 12 is located at the forehead of the head covering part 11. A medical mask surface 2 is provided, with both sides of the medical mask surface 2 connected to both sides of the arc-shaped facial opening.
[0028] Specifically, when using this surgical cap, the medical staff's head is completely covered within the head covering 11, with only the cheeks exposed. The medical staff's head is slipped through the openings at the back of the neck and chin of the head covering 11. The elastic band can be adjusted to accommodate different head sizes. The curved facial opening of the head covering 11 is connected to the cheek sealing edge 12, which fits snugly against the medical staff's cheeks. This further seals the inside of the head covering 11 while increasing the contact area between the head covering 11 and the medical staff's face, reducing pressure. The full-coverage surgical cap provides a tighter fit to the head and will not fall off during high-intensity work. After putting on the surgical cap 1, the medical masks on both sides of the facial opening are also put on over the medical staff's mouth and nose. The surgical cap 1 covers the entire head of the medical staff, with a large coverage area, resulting in more even pressure distribution on the head and greater comfort.
[0029] In some possible embodiments, two first securing straps 13 are provided on the back of the headband 11 extending laterally to the chin. An elastic band extends from one first securing strap 13 to the back of the headband 11 and then to the other first securing strap 13. The two first securing straps 13 are detachably connected, and the elastic band can be adjusted by changing the connection position of the two first securing straps 13. The two sides of the two first securing straps 13 that meet are respectively provided with hook and loop fasteners, and the two first securing straps 13 are detachably connected through these hook and loop fasteners.
[0030] Specifically, the two second fixing straps 14 extend from the back of the neck of the headband 11 to the chin. By changing the relative position of the two second fixing straps 14, the fixation of the lower part of the headband 11 to the neck of the medical staff can be adjusted. At the same time, the two fixing straps are detachable by Velcro hooks to facilitate the wearing of the headband 11 by the medical staff. When the two second fixing straps 14 are separated, the medical staff can directly put their head into the headband 11 without having to crawl through the elastic band. After the medical staff puts their head into the headband 11, they wrap the two second fixing straps 14 around the chin and tighten them together by Velcro hooks. The two ends of the elastic band are located at the two ends of the two second fixing straps 14. When the two second fixing straps 14 are glued together, the elastic band is also closed, further providing a fixing effect.
[0031] In some possible implementations, the cheek seal 12 is connected to two second fixing straps 14 from the cheeks downwards, and the ends of the two second fixing straps 14 away from the cheek seal 12 are detachably connected to each other by Velcro hooks.
[0032] Specifically, different people have different cheek lengths and face sizes. The second fixing straps 14 connected to the lower part of the cheek seal 12 control the fit of the surgical cap body 1 to the cheeks of medical staff. When in use, the two second fixing straps 14 are tightened downwards and wrapped around the chin and connected by the Velcro hook side to increase the fit to the cheeks.
[0033] In some possible implementations, the inner layer of the cheek seal 12 is provided with a rubber pad. The inner layer of the first fixing strap 13 is provided with a sweat-absorbing layer.
[0034] Specifically, the rubber pad is softer and fits the patient's cheek more comfortably. At the same time, the rubber pad has a certain degree of absorbency, which can fit the cheek better and prevent hair from slipping out accidentally. During the operation, medical staff are more likely to sweat on their necks. The two first fixation straps 13 wrap around and fit the neck, and their inner surface is equipped with a sweat-absorbing layer to absorb sweat and improve the comfort of use.
[0035] In some possible implementations, the two sides of the medical mask face 2 are respectively connected to the two sides of the arc-shaped facial opening by two elastic bands 21. One elastic band 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the arc-shaped facial opening, and the other elastic band 21 is detachably attached to the other side of the arc-shaped facial opening by a Velcro hook.
[0036] Specifically, before wearing, one end of the medical mask fabric is fixed to the head covering, while the other end is detached, leaving the medical mask fabric open for easier wearing. After the surgical cap 1 is on, hold one of the Velcro elastic bands 21 and pull it to the other side of the curved facial opening until it is tightened and then stick it on. This provides a certain degree of fixation to the head covering while wearing the medical mask 2.
[0037] In some possible implementations, the headband 11 has protruding portions on both sides at the ear positions to provide space for the ears. The headband 11 is made of high-quality breathable fabric.
[0038] Specifically, the ears on a person's head will protrude relative to the rest of the head. The head cover 11 is located at the ear and has reserved space, which can be used as an ear cap to accommodate the ears and improve comfort. The high-quality breathable fabric material has better breathability while ensuring that hair will not pass through, thus avoiding infection.
[0039] In some possible implementations, the headgear 11 is painted with different colors depending on the wearer.
[0040] Specifically, a surgical procedure involves multiple doctors with different tasks, such as anesthesiologists and surgeons. Wearing different colored surgical caps according to their different tasks can help identify the surgeons' surgical tasks and quickly distinguish the surgical team.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely specific implementations of this utility model, used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and not to limit it. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto.
