TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a medical goggle with improved anti-fog performance by using polymer materials. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the medical field, medical goggles are important protective equipment for protecting the eyes of medical staff from liquid splashes, harmful particles and bacteria. However, in actual application, the inside of the goggles often fogs due to temperature difference, humidity and other factors, affecting the vision and work efficiency of medical staff.

[0003] Traditional medical goggles often use simple materials and structures, which can easily cause fog to condense on the lens, and do not have sterilization function, which can easily become a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses. In addition, when wearing general goggles, the face of the wearer cannot be completely sealed, which can easily lead to the invasion of harmful substances.

[0004] Therefore, how to design a medical goggle that can not only prevent fog condensation and has good sterilization function, but also completely seals the face of the wearer, has become an urgent problem in the industry. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a medical goggle with improved anti-fog performance by using polymer materials to solve the problems raised in the background art. The medical goggle not only has excellent anti-fog and sterilization performance, but also its structure and materials are carefully designed and selected to ensure its efficiency and reliability in actual application, providing higher level eye protection for medical staff.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present application provides the following technical scheme:

[0007] A medical goggle with improved anti-fog performance by using polymer materials, comprising an integrated frame that can be attached to the face of the wearer, and a soft sealing ring that can be detachably fixed on the rear end ring surface of the integrated frame; after wearing, the soft sealing ring makes the integrated frame and the face of the wearer fit and seal; the medical goggle further comprises an arc lens that is sealingly installed at the front end of the integrated frame, and a pair of legs that are connected to the two sides of the integrated frame; the arc lens is also integrated and the middle part is outwardly convex; the inner surface of the arc lens is coated with a nano coating; the nano coating has a hydrophilic surface to reduce fog formation, and can excite sterilization under the irradiation of a UV-C LED lamp.

[0008] The formula of the nano coating is: titanium dioxide nanoparticles: 5-10wt%, silane coupling agent: 1-2wt%, anti-scratch agent: 1-2wt%, solvent: 80-90wt%, dispersing agent: 0.5-1wt%.

[0009] The silane coupling agent is 3-methyl silane; the anti-scratch agent is nano-silicon sheet or zirconium oxide; the solvent is isopropyl alcohol; the dispersing agent is polyvinyl acetate, polymethacrylate or sodium polycarboxylic acid.

[0010] The preparation process of the nano coating includes:

[0011] Pre-treatment: Pre-mix titanium dioxide nanoparticles and dispersing agent in a container;

[0012] Preparation of coating: Slowly add solvent to the pre-mixture and stir well to obtain a uniform mixture; add silane coupling agent and anti-scratch agent to the mixture and continue stirring until well mixed;

[0013] Coating: Use methods such as spraying, scraping or spin coating to apply the coating to the lens, ensuring uniform coating, no bubbles and no cracks;

[0014] Curing: Let the coated lens dry at room temperature for 24 hours, or bake in an oven at 60-80°C for 2-4 hours to ensure good adhesion between the coating and the lens;

[0015] Post-treatment: Check the uniformity and adhesion of the coating to ensure that the coating does not fall off or crack;

[0016] Testing: Test the coated lens for transparency, scratch resistance and antibacterial properties to ensure that it meets the application requirements.

[0017] The one-piece frame has an air outlet body along the outer edge of the curved mirror lens; the air outlet body extends along the outer edge of the curved mirror lens and is connected at the ends to form a closed loop; the air outlet body includes a closed loop uniform air chamber extending along the outer edge of the curved mirror lens; the closed loop uniform air chamber includes a drum cavity at the rear and a narrow air outlet opening towards the front of the curved mirror lens; a shunt air guide body is arranged in the closed loop uniform air chamber along the closed loop direction; the shunt air guide body separates the closed loop uniform air chamber into a closed loop outer air outlet channel and a closed loop inner air outlet channel; the closed loop outer air outlet channel has a closed loop outer air outlet slit at the front end; the closed loop inner air outlet channel has a closed loop inner air outlet slit at the front end; the closed loop inner air outlet slit and the edge of the curved mirror lens are provided with an outwardly convex air guide connecting arc surface; the air guide connecting arc surface is smoothly connected with the inner wall of the front end of the closed loop uniform air chamber and the edge of the curved mirror lens, respectively; the one-piece frame is further provided with at least one micro air pump; the air outlet of the micro air pump is in communication with the drum cavity of the closed loop uniform air chamber.

[0018] The closed loop air outlet channel is provided with a diameter reducing part in the middle to form an air flow acceleration zone; an air guide body is arranged along the air outlet body and also forms a closed loop in the integrated frame; the front end of the air guide body is narrow and communicates with the air flow acceleration zone, and the direction of the front end of the air guide body is the same as or similar to the direction of the air flow in the air flow acceleration zone; the rear end of the air guide body is flared and communicates with the space between the arc lens and the wearer's glasses; the integrated frame is also provided with an air inlet; the air inlet is covered with a melt-blown cloth for filtering bacteria.

[0019] The horizontal cross section of the air guide body is a Tesla tube structure, so that the air flow can flow unidirectionally to the narrow end thereof.

[0020] The mirror leg comprises an adjustable leg connected with the integrated frame and a foldable leg connected with the adjustable leg; the adjustable leg comprises a plurality of segmented bodies connected in sequence through a dumbbell body; a cross-shaped slot is formed in the end of each segmented body; the width of the outer opening of the cross-shaped slot is smaller than the width of the slot; the dumbbell body comprises a connecting short rod and a diameter expanding head fixed at both ends of the connecting short rod; the diameter of the diameter expanding head is larger than the width of the outer opening of the cross-shaped slot and smaller than the width of the slot; the diameter of the connecting short rod is smaller than the width of the outer opening of the cross-shaped slot.

[0021] The UV-C LED lamp is embedded in the inner side of the foldable leg, and the UV-C LED lamp faces the arc lens after the foldable leg is bent inward.

[0022] The working method of the medical goggles comprises the following steps:

[0023] The wearer adjusts the relative attitude of the adjacent segmented bodies to adjust the left-right width and the up-down position of the entire mirror leg to adapt to the head size of the wearer; in this process, the adjustment is realized by the position of the dumbbell body in the cross-shaped slot; after wearing, the foldable leg can be bent inward to wrap the back part, thereby improving the wearing stability of the goggles.

[0024] ② After putting on the goggles, start the miniature air pump via the switch. The miniature air pump pressurizes external air into the drum cavity of the closed-loop uniform air chamber. The pressurized air is then diverted by the air diverter. A portion of the airflow passes through the air outlet duct within the closed loop and is ejected from the narrow air outlet slit. Due to the convex curved surface of the air guide and the curved lens, this portion of the airflow adheres to the surface of the air guide and the curved lens under the Coanda effect. As the airflow passes through the air outlet duct within the closed loop, it passes through the airflow acceleration zone. According to Bernoulli's principle, the pressure at this point decreases, creating a negative pressure. This causes the air within the goggles' coverage area to be drawn into the airflow acceleration zone and carried out. The air within the goggles' coverage area is heated by the body's heat conduction and radiation, resulting in a higher temperature. As the airflow adheres to and flows over the curved lens surface, it heats the outer surface of the lens, bringing the inner and outer surface temperatures closer together. This prevents external moisture from condensing on the outer surface of the curved lens and reduces the adhesion of bacteria and viruses. At the same time, it removes moisture generated within the goggles' coverage area, preventing excessive humidity around the wearer's eyes. After the air within the goggles' coverage area is removed, there is a certain negative pressure inside. External air is filtered for bacteria by the meltblown fabric at the air inlet before entering the goggles' coverage area, ensuring fresh air within the coverage area.

[0025] ③ The pressurized air is diverted by the air diverter, and another part of the airflow is ejected from the closed-loop outlet air duct through the closed-loop outlet air slit. Since the closed-loop outlet air duct and the closed-loop outlet air slit are also set in a closed loop around the curved mirror, an air ring around the curved mirror is formed and sprayed in front of the curved mirror; and the space within the area surrounded by the air ring is formed with negative pressure; and the airflow that gathers in front of the curved mirror is carried forward.

[0026] ④ When not in use, remove the goggles, bend the foldable legs inward so that the inside of the foldable legs faces the curved lens, and turn on the UV-C LED light on them to irradiate the curved lens with UV-C light to kill any bacteria and viruses that may be attached to the curved lens.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0028] Enhanced sealing: The goggles feature a specially designed soft sealing ring that fits snugly against the wearer's face, ensuring that external liquids and particles cannot easily penetrate, providing better protection for the wearer.

[0029] Significant anti-fog performance: The nano-coating on the inner surface of the curved lens is hydrophilic, which greatly reduces the fogging of the lens during use, ensuring that medical staff can maintain a clear field of vision even in complex environments.

[0030] Highly effective sterilization function: The nano-coating can produce a sterilization effect under the irradiation of UV-C LED lamp, effectively killing microorganisms on the lens surface and providing dual protection for medical staff.

[0031] Scientific formula design: The coating formula takes into account the proportion and function of each component, including silane coupling agents to improve adhesion, anti-scratch agents to enhance scratch resistance, and dispersants to ensure uniformity of the coating, ensuring the efficiency and durability of the coating.

[0032] Strict preparation process: The preparation process of the coating is carefully designed, including pretreatment, coating, curing, post-treatment and testing, to ensure the quality and performance stability of the coating.

[0033] Enhanced anti-fog, anti-bacterial and anti-dust effect of goggles: The medical goggles use an air outlet design to create a negative pressure area, helping to remove moisture around the eyes, effectively preventing fog from condensing on the lens; In addition, using the Coanda effect, part of the airflow is attracted out of the scope of the goggles by the Bernoulli principle and adheres to the arc lens, forming a wind film on the outer surface of the arc lens, which not only maintains a certain temperature on the outer surface of the lens using the heat generated by the human body, reducing the condensation of external moisture on the lens, but also effectively isolates external bacteria and viruses, reducing the attachment of bacteria, viruses and dust, so that the goggles remain clean during long-term use; At the same time, the air induction design of the Tesla tube structure can effectively control the direction of airflow, making it flow only in one direction, further optimizing the airflow state inside the goggles and avoiding the backflow of external unclean air.

[0034] Maintain fresh air: The air inside the goggles is constantly replaced by fresh air from the outside, ensuring the comfort of the wearer and reducing the chances of bacterial and viral attachment.

[0035] Effectively filter bacteria: By covering the air inlet with a melt-blown cloth, it ensures that the air entering the interior of the goggles is fresh and free of bacteria after filtration.

[0036] High comfort level: With adjustable temples, users can adjust the position of the goggles according to their head shape, ensuring stable and comfortable wear; The cross-shaped sink structure with dumbbell body not only has two-dimensional adjustment capability, but also can achieve a certain degree of deflection, further improving the flexibility of adjustment, while this structure can easily realize one adjustment to horizontal slot and the other adjustment to vertical slot when more than two cross-shaped sinks are adjusted together, thereby being limited by the dislocation between them, ensuring the stability of the adjusted posture.

[0037] Easy to clean and disinfect: when the goggles are not in use temporarily, the legs can be easily folded and the internal UV-C LED lamp can be used to disinfect the lenses, ensuring their sterile state; the UV-C LED lamp on the inner side of the legs can effectively kill bacteria and viruses attached to the arc lenses when irradiating them, providing a safer eye protection environment for users.

[0038] In summary, this medical goggles not only has excellent anti-fog and sterilization performance, but also its structure and materials are carefully designed and selected, ensuring its high efficiency and reliability in practical application, providing higher level of eye protection for medical staff; At the same time, it can also be adjusted according to individual differences, greatly enhancing its practicability and comfort, which is an ideal choice for on-site medical staff.

[0053] Further, the formula of the nano coating is: titanium dioxide nanoparticles: 5-10wt%, silane coupling agent: 1-2wt%, anti-scratch agent: 1-2wt%, solvent: 80-90wt%, dispersing agent: 0.5-1wt%.

8. The medical goggles with improved anti-fog performance using polymer materials as described in claim 7, characterized in that: The foldable leg (32) is embedded with a UV-C LED lamp (7) on its inner side. After the foldable leg (32) is bent inward, the UV-C LED lamp (7) faces the curved lens (2).

9. A medical goggle with improved anti-fog performance using polymer materials as described in claim 8, characterized in that, The working method of the medical goggles includes the following steps: ① The wearer can adjust the left and right width and up and down position of the entire temple (3) to adapt to the wearer's head size by adjusting the relative posture of the adjacent segments (34); in this process, the position of the dumbbell body (33) in the cross-shaped groove (341) is adjusted; after wearing, the foldable temple (32) can be bent inward to cover the back of the head, thereby improving the wearing stability of the goggles; ② After wearing the goggles, the micro air pump (6) is started by controlling the switch. The micro air pump (6) pressurizes the external air into the drum cavity (411) of the closed-loop uniform air chamber (41). The pressurized air is divided by the diversion guide (42). A part of the airflow passes through the air outlet duct (414) in the closed loop and is ejected from the air outlet slit in the closed loop. Due to the convex arc surface of the air guide connecting arc surface (43) and the arc surface of the curved lens (2), under the Coanda effect, this part of the airflow adheres to the surface of the air guide connecting arc surface (43) and the arc surface of the curved lens (2) and flows. During the process of the airflow passing through the air outlet duct (414) in the closed loop, it passes through the airflow acceleration zone (415). According to Bernoulli's principle, the pressure at this point decreases, forming a negative pressure, thereby causing the air within the scope of the goggles to be drawn by the air ( 5) The air is drawn out by the airflow acceleration zone (415). Since the air within the scope of the goggles is heated by the heat conduction and radiation of the human body, the temperature is high. As the airflow adheres to the surface of the curved lens (2), it heats the outer surface of the curved lens (2) and makes the inner and outer surface temperatures close. This prevents external water vapor from condensing on the outer surface of the curved lens (2) and reduces the adhesion of bacteria and viruses on the outer surface of the curved lens (2). At the same time, it carries out the water vapor generated within the scope of the goggles, preventing excessive humidity around the wearer's eyes. After the air within the scope of the goggles is carried out, there is a certain negative pressure inside. The external air is filtered by the meltblown cloth (11) on the air inlet and then enters the scope of the goggles to ensure that the air within the scope is fresh. ③The pressurized air is diverted by the diversion guide (42), and another part of the airflow is ejected from the closed-loop outlet air duct (413) through the closed-loop outlet air slit. Since the closed-loop outlet air duct (413) and the closed-loop outlet air slit are also set in a closed loop around the curved mirror (2), a wind ring around the curved mirror (2) is formed and sprayed in front of the curved mirror (2); and the space within the range of the wind ring is formed with negative pressure; and the airflow that gathers in front of the curved mirror (2) is carried forward. ④ When not in use, remove the goggles, bend the foldable leg (32) inward so that the inner side of the foldable leg (32) faces the curved lens (2), and turn on the UV-C LED lamp (7) on it to irradiate the curved lens (2) with UV-C light to kill bacteria and viruses that may be attached to the curved lens (2).
