Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine cold and hot treatment devices, in particular to a portable traditional Chinese medicine cold and hot treatment device. Background Art

[0002] Cold compress or hot compress (ironing) of Chinese medicine is a method of treating by applying cold or hot compress to the affected area with Chinese herbal lotions, powders, tinctures, etc. prepared according to a certain prescription. This technology allows Chinese medicine to exert its efficacy after being absorbed through the skin, and at the same time, physical factors such as ice cubes below the skin temperature are used to stimulate the body to achieve the effects of cooling, relieving pain, stopping bleeding, and reducing swelling, and reducing inflammatory exudation, or hot water, heated salt, or Kanli Sand Chinese medicine hot compress and hot ironing above the skin temperature are used to increase the efficacy of the medicine and promote local blood and lymph circulation, which is beneficial to the absorption of local edema and inflammation, eliminate the tension and spasm of local muscle fibers, and achieve the therapeutic effects of warming blood circulation, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and promoting the disappearance of inflammation.

[0003] Chinese medicine cold compress is suitable for trauma, fracture, dislocation, early stage of soft tissue injury, epistaxis, stings, infectious skin diseases, allergic skin diseases, high fever, heat stroke, etc. Chinese medicine hot compress and hot ironing treatment is suitable for fracture, middle and late stage of soft tissue injury, neck, shoulder, waist and leg pain, and other diseases such as wind, cold and dampness arthralgia.

[0004] In clinical practice, cold and hot therapy treatments are limited in time and temperature according to the specifications to avoid frostbite or burns. For example, for closed injuries caused by trauma, cold compresses should be applied within 24-48 hours after the injury, and the ice compress time should be about 20-30 minutes. During the cold compress process, pay attention to local temperature changes, observe the peripheral blood circulation of the affected limb every 30 minutes to 1 hour, and understand the patient's local feelings. If the injured person is young and the injury is serious, continuous cold compress can be selected, 12-24 hours uninterrupted, once every 6 hours, for a total of 3-4 times. If the patient is older and has a poor physical condition, especially the elderly, the intermittent cold compress method should be selected, applied once every 30-60 minutes, and each time for no less than 20 minutes. The temperature of hot compress and hot ironing should not be too high or too long, otherwise burns are likely to occur.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0033] In Example 1, referring to Figure 1-9 A portable Chinese medicine hot and cold treatment device comprises a bag body 1, a compress bag 2, an airbag 3 and a Chinese medicine patch 4, both sides of the bag body 1 are provided with straps 6, the Chinese medicine patch 4 is located at the rear end of the bag body 1, the airbag 3 is located between the bag body 1 and the Chinese medicine patch 4, the airbag 3 is plate-shaped, and the outer wall of the airbag 3 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bag body 1, a temperature sensor 5 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the airbag 3 on one side close to the Chinese medicine patch 4, an inflation interface 11 and an exhaust interface 12 are also provided on the airbag 3, an expansion limiting mechanism is provided inside the airbag 3, the expansion limiting mechanism is used to prevent the airbag 3 from over-expanding, so that the thickness of the airbag 3 remains uniform, an opening and closing mouth 8 is provided on the upper end of the bag body 1, the compress bag 2 is placed inside the bag body 1, and a display module 9 and an alarm module 10 are provided on the front of the bag body 1.

[0034] Furthermore, the compress bag 2 is a cold compress bag or a hot compress bag. The cold compress bag is composed of an ice bag, a water bag, a salt bag, etc. and a waterproof and heat-insulating storage bag. When in use, a refrigeration bag such as an ice bag or a low-temperature water bag is placed in the storage bag. The hot compress bag is composed of a heating bag such as a hot water bag, a hot salt bag, etc. and a waterproof and heat-insulating storage bag. The compress bag 2 can be used to cool or heat the Chinese medicine patch.

[0035] Furthermore, the expansion limiting mechanism is a tubular limiting mechanism, and the tubular limiting mechanism is an elastic tube 34. Both ends of the elastic tube 34 are connected with annular sealing cloth 33, and the annular sealing cloth 33 is an inelastic sealing cloth. The annular sealing cloth 33 can play a certain shaping role on the two ends of the expansion limiting mechanism. The ends of the annular sealing cloth 33 are sealed with the inner wall of the airbag 3, and the area formed by the annular sealing cloth 33, the elastic tube 34 and the inner wall of the airbag 3 is filled with heat-conducting liquid; for the tubular limiting mechanism, the interior is filled with heat-conducting liquid. When the airbag 3 is in a deflated state, the elastic tube 34 is compressed, and the diameter in the middle of the elastic tube 34 is larger than the diameters at both ends of the elastic tube. At this time, the tubular limiting mechanism is short in length and large in cross-sectional area, which is suitable for heat transfer. When the airbag 3 is in an inflated state, the elastic tube 34 is stretched, and the diameter in the middle of the elastic tube 34 is much smaller than the diameters at both ends of the elastic tube. Fig. 9 As shown, at this time, the tubular limiting mechanism is long in length, the cross-sectional area of ​​the middle portion is small, and the heat transfer efficiency is low. Therefore, the tubular limiting mechanism can not only limit the airbag 3, but also play an auxiliary role in temperature regulation.

[0036] Furthermore, the number of the tubular limiting mechanisms is 4-120, the tubular limiting mechanisms are distributed in a rectangular array, and the diameter of the tubular limiting mechanisms is 0.5 cm-5 cm.

[0037] Furthermore, the airbag 3 includes an airbag body 32 , the outer side of the airbag body 32 is wrapped with an aluminum foil layer 31 , and the material of the airbag body 32 is heat-conducting rubber.

[0038] Furthermore, the display module 9 is a liquid crystal display, and the display module 9 is used to display the temperature monitored by the temperature sensor 5 and the operating time.

[0039] Furthermore, the alarm module 10 includes a speaker and an indicator light. A microprocessor is also installed inside the bag body 1. The microprocessor is electrically connected to the display temperature sensor 5, the display module 9 and the alarm module 10 respectively. The alarm module 10 is used to express the alarm signal transmitted by the microprocessor. During use, when the temperature is abnormal or the treatment time is reached, a reminder can be given through the speaker and the indicator light.

[0040] Furthermore, the number of straps 6 on each side of the bag body 1 is 1-5, and Velcro 7 is provided on the straps 6. The number of straps 6 is adjusted according to the use position of the device. For example, if the device is used in a non-joint part of an arm or leg (a relatively regular part), 1-2 straps may be provided on each side of the bag body 1. If the device is used in a joint part of an arm or leg (an irregular part), 3-5 straps may need to be provided on each side of the bag body 1.

[0041] Furthermore, a zipper is installed on the inner wall of the bag body 1 at the opening 8, and the zipper can also be replaced by Velcro, buttons, etc.

[0042] In Example 2, referring to Figure 1 , 3-4, 9 and 10, compared with Example 1, the difference is that the expansion limiting mechanism is a strip-shaped limiting mechanism, the strip-shaped limiting mechanism is a strip-shaped breathable cloth 35, the end of the strip-shaped breathable cloth 35 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the airbag 3, the number of the strip-shaped limiting mechanisms is 3-20, and the strip-shaped limiting mechanisms are parallel to each other.

[0043] In addition, the expansion limiting mechanism can also be used together with a strip-shaped limiting mechanism and a tubular limiting mechanism.

[0044] In Embodiment 1-2, the device is provided with an airbag 3 between the bag body 1 and the Chinese medicine patch 4. The airbag 3 can be inflated through the inflation interface 11. The temperature of the Chinese medicine patch 4 can be regulated through the airbag 3. The temperature sensor 5 can monitor the temperature of the Chinese medicine patch 4 in a timely manner and display it on the display module 9. During hot compress, when the airbag 3 is inflated, the outer walls of the airbag 3 are far apart, the heat conduction effect of the airbag 3 becomes poor, and the hot compress bag in the bag body is not easy to act on the Chinese medicine patch 4, so that the Chinese medicine patch 4 can stop heating. When the airbag 3 is exhausted, the outer walls of the airbag 3 are tightly attached to each other (it is best to evacuate the airbag 3 through the exhaust interface 12, and the airbag body 3 2 can be completely tightly attached), the airbag has a good thermal conductivity, the hot compress bag in the bag can act on the Chinese medicine patch 4, and the Chinese medicine patch 4 can quickly heat up; similarly, during cold compress, when the airbag 3 is inflated, the outer walls of the airbag 3 are far apart, the thermal conductivity of the airbag 3 becomes poor, and the cold compress bag in the bag is not easy to act on the Chinese medicine patch 4, so that the Chinese medicine patch 4 can stop cooling down to prevent frostbite. When the airbag 3 is exhausted, the outer walls of the airbag 3 are tightly attached to each other, the airbag has a good thermal conductivity, and the cold compress bag in the bag can act on the Chinese medicine patch 4, and the Chinese medicine patch 4 can quickly cool down. The temperature of the Chinese medicine patch can be effectively adjusted through the airbag 3, which is convenient for the use of the device.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
