Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cold compress equipment technology, specifically to a cold compress equipment for trauma orthopedics. Background Technology

[0002] For common orthopedic pathological reactions such as fractures and bone spurs that stimulate human tissues, such as high temperature, pain and swelling, cold compress therapy is also used. This is because cold compress therapy can cause local capillary constriction, thereby relieving heat dissipation, cooling, stopping bleeding, relieving pain and preventing swelling.

[0003] Publication (Announcement) No.: CN215535561U, Publication (Announcement) Date: 2022-01-18, discloses an orthopedic lumbar trauma cold compress device, including a body, the body being connected to a detachable lumbar cold compress belt via an inflatable hose. This utility model incorporates three storage bags for storing ice packs within the lumbar cold compress belt. During storage, the rectangular frame at the bottom of the ice pack engages with a sliding frame that can slide within the storage bag. A cylindrical magnet on the sliding frame magnetically holds the rectangular frame, allowing the ice pack to slide within the storage bag. This facilitates better contact between the ice pack and the affected area during application, improving the cold compress effect. Simultaneously, an air ring within the lumbar cold compress belt, when inflated, compresses the ice pack, increasing the belt's snugness and allowing the ice pack to adhere more closely to the skin, further enhancing the cold compress treatment effect.

[0004] In the prior art, including the aforementioned patent, the above-mentioned cold compress is mainly ice pack. During the ice pack process, the ice pack sublimates. However, it is difficult to maintain the temperature of the cold compress at 10℃~20℃ by relying solely on the ice pack. The temperature change is curvilinear and requires constant adjustment and replacement. Summary of the Invention

[0033] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a cold compress device for trauma orthopedics includes a main unit 1 and a cuff 2, which are connected by an insulated hose 3.

[0035] An ice tray 4 is provided in the groove at the top of the main unit 1. An evaporation plate 41 is provided on the top of the ice tray 4. Fins 42 are stamped on the evaporation plate 41 and arranged in a linear array to extend into the water tank 5 provided inside the main unit 1.

[0036] The main unit 1 is equipped with a pump unit, which is used to circulate the liquid in the water tank 5 and the sleeve 2, wherein:

[0037] The inlet of the water tank 5 is at the same level as the fin 42, and the outlet is located at the bottom.

[0038] Specifically, the main unit 1 can be directly connected to an external 220V AC power supply for power.

[0039] Furthermore, the main unit 1 is equipped with a display panel 11, a button editor 12, and a connector panel 13 for connecting to the heat-insulating hose 3. The display panel 11 is used to display the current operating status of the device and the temperature of the cuff 2, while the button editor 12 includes a power switch, a heating button and a cooling button for adjusting the temperature, and a reset button.

[0040] Because the insulated hose 3 includes an inlet pipe and a return pipe, the connector panel 13 is also equipped with two first pipe bodies and a second pipe body that are respectively connected to the inlet pipe and the return pipe. The first pipe body connects the return pipe to the inlet of the water tank 5, while the second pipe body connects the inlet pipe to the outlet of the water tank 5.

[0041] It should be noted that the temperature of the cuff 2 is monitored by a temperature sensor, and the aforementioned electronic components and control programs are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail.

[0042] In the above technology, a circulating cold water system is used. Ice packs transfer temperature to the water tank 5 through fins 42, and then the circulation keeps the cuff 2 at -10℃ to -20℃. This avoids direct contact between the ice packs and the human body, thus preventing frostbite.

[0043] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the main unit 1 is provided with an inclined main body 100, and the two ends of the main body 100 are respectively provided with a first flange 101 connected to the pipe panel 13 and a second flange 102 connected to the water outlet.

[0044] Specifically, the second pipe body is connected to the first flange 101, while the second flange 102 is connected to the outlet of the water tank 5. The main pipe body 100 here is a rectangular insulated pipe. When liquid enters the main pipe body 100, the flow rate will decrease because the volume of the main pipe body 100 is larger than that of the second flange 102 and the connected pipe, thus reducing the flow rate of liquid entering the sleeve 2.

[0045] As another embodiment of the present invention, the second flange 102 is provided with a frustum portion 1021, and the narrow opening of the frustum portion 1021 is connected to the water outlet.

[0046] The inner wall of the frustum portion 1021 is provided with helical blades 1022.

[0047] Specifically, in the above embodiment, due to the special structure of the frustum portion 1021, when the liquid enters the main pipe 100 through the spiral blade 1022 structure, it will rotate and generate a Bernoulli effect at the rectangular corner of the main pipe 100, so as to form a local swirling effect, thereby creating a stirring effect for the internal liquid.

[0048] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a first spiral condenser tube 200 is provided inside the main body 100, and the maximum circumferential radius of the first spiral condenser tube 200 is equal to the circumferential radius of the narrow opening of the frustum portion 1021.

[0049] The first spiral condenser tube 200 has a circular cross-section.

[0050] Specifically, the first spiral condenser 200 works in conjunction with the compressor of the main unit 1. The compressor inputs the cold source into the first spiral condenser 200 to coordinate temperature compensation, so as to ensure that the temperature of the sleeve 2 is always kept at -10℃ to -20℃.

[0051] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a second spiral condenser tube 300 is provided inside the main body 100. The maximum circumferential radius of the second spiral condenser tube 300 is equal to the circumferential radius of the wide opening of the frustum portion 1021, and the first spiral condenser tube 200 is located inside the second spiral condenser tube 300 and is arranged coaxially.

[0052] Both ends of the first spiral condenser tube 200 extend to a predetermined length outside the second spiral condenser tube 300.

[0053] Specifically, in the above embodiment, there is also a second spiral condenser tube 300, which cooperates with the compressor of the main unit 1. Since the second spiral condenser tube 300 and the first spiral condenser tube 200 are designed to be nested together, and the first spiral condenser tube 200 is located at the core of the vortex, while the second spiral condenser tube 300 is located at the periphery of the vortex, the two cooperate to achieve the purpose of cooling the water in a very short time, thereby coordinating temperature compensation to ensure that the temperature of the sleeve 2 is always kept at -10℃ to -20℃.

[0054] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a circular tube 400 is provided inside the main body 100, and the second spiral condenser tube 300 and the first spiral condenser tube 200 are both assembled inside the circular tube 400.

[0055] The circular tube 400 and the main body 100 are arranged axially, forming a cavity between them.

[0056] Furthermore, the cross-section of the second spiral condenser tube 300 is a polygonal structure, and the side facing the first spiral condenser tube 200 is concave.

[0057] Specifically, in the embodiment, the relationship between the circular pipe 400 and the main pipe 100 is that the circular pipe 400 is the cold water production site, while the main pipe 100 collects the naturally diffused cold source from the cold water production site and then stores it, thereby achieving a compensation and providing reverse compensation to the cold water production site. The two working together can reduce energy consumption.

[0058] It should be noted that the device can be used to place ice packs in the ice tray 4 to reduce the energy consumption of the second spiral condenser tube 300 and the first spiral condenser tube 200; it can also be used to place absorbent products such as towels to transfer the cold temperature circulating to the water tank 5, so that the absorbent products such as towels can carry low temperatures.

[0059] In addition, the ice tray 4 needs to be covered with a lid during use. The liquid formed by the melting ice packs will be stored in the ice tray 4, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the ice is poured out from one side of the outlet, and the ice tray 4 is arranged at an angle, with the higher position in the horizontal direction located at the outlet.

[0060] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
