Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of individual soldier field medical equipment technology, and in particular to an integrated oral care and first aid device for individual soldiers suitable for high-altitude extreme environments. Background Technology
[0002] High-altitude areas (generally referring to areas above 3000 meters) are characterized by low atmospheric pressure, low oxygen content, low temperatures, large diurnal temperature variations, dry climate, and strong ultraviolet radiation. Soldiers performing missions in this environment face severe physiological challenges, with oral health issues being particularly prominent. Extreme dryness: Low-pressure dry air causes saliva to evaporate too quickly, reducing saliva secretion and drastically decreasing the mouth's self-cleaning and antibacterial abilities, making it very easy to cause tooth decay, gingivitis, oral ulcers, and halitosis; Conventional care methods fail: Traditional toothpaste and toothbrushes are difficult to use in dry environments, making rinsing impractical. Waterless toothpaste / mouthwash has limited functionality and cannot address issues like dry mucous membranes and frostbite. Increased risk of acute illnesses: In high-altitude environments, the body's immunity is relatively low, and the dryness can easily lead to cracking of the oral mucosa, increasing the risk of oral infections and acute gingival bleeding. Oral frostbite is also a common low-temperature injury.
[0003] Insufficient existing equipment: Currently, the oral care section of the medical first aid kits carried by individual soldiers usually only contains a regular toothbrush and toothpaste, or simply mouthwash tablets, without taking into account the special physiological needs and environmental limitations at high altitudes, and lacks targeted, integrated and emergency functions.
[0004] Therefore, developing a specialized piece of equipment that can actively adapt to high-altitude environments, integrate nursing and emergency care functions, and is easy for individual soldiers to carry and use is of great military and practical significance.
[0005] Developing an integrated oral care and first aid device suitable for individual soldiers in high-altitude extreme environments, and providing an integrated, environmentally adaptable, and easy-to-operate individual oral care and first aid kit specifically designed to address the oral health maintenance and emergency treatment needs of individual soldiers in high-altitude areas, has become a technical challenge that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

The integrated housing 15 is equipped with a pressure balancing valve to ensure pressure balance inside and outside the housing, preventing adverse effects on the internal device caused by drastic changes in altitude, and further preventing any impact on working performance. Furthermore, the inner wall of the integrated housing 15 is coated with a heat insulation layer; the two sides of the integrated housing 15 are respectively installed with a receiving box 6; the upper end of the integrated housing 15 is equipped with a control unit; the lower end of the integrated housing 15 is hinged with a hand crank handle 8; and the outer surface of the integrated housing 15 is equipped with a folding solar panel 7. The integrated casing 15 contains, from top to bottom, a pressurized humidification device 11, a power supply 12, and a hand-cranked power generation module 13. The foldable solar panel 7, the pressurized humidification device 11, and the hand-cranked power generation module 13 are all electrically connected to the power supply 12. The pressurized humidification device 11 includes a micro air pump, a micro heating element, a nano-level atomizing plate, and a micro water storage bladder. During operation, the air pump pressurizes a small amount of water from the water storage bladder or self-provided water into the atomizing chamber. After being moderately heated by the heating element, the atomizing plate generates micron-level warm and humidified mist, which is delivered to the oral cavity through a retractable atomizing conduit to achieve active humidification and cleaning of the oral cavity. The hand-cranked power generation module 13 is connected to the hand-cranked handle 8, which enables the hand-cranked power generation module to generate electricity in an emergency by using the hand-cranked handle, thereby improving environmental adaptability.
[0022] Specifically, the lower surface of the integrated housing 15 is provided with a charging port 10, which is electrically connected to the power supply 12.
[0023] Specifically, the container 6 located on one side is equipped with a basic oral care unit, and the container 6 located on the other side is equipped with a high-altitude special emergency rescue unit.
[0024] Specifically, the basic oral care unit includes a multi-functional toothbrush and a highly concentrated waterless dental cleaning gel. The multi-functional toothbrush has a hollow handle that houses a foldable interdental brush and a tongue scraper. The bristles of the interdental brush are made of antibacterial and soft material. The highly concentrated waterless dental cleaning gel contains antibacterial ingredients suitable for high altitudes (such as tea polyphenols and chlorhexidine), mucosal protectants (such as sodium hyaluronate), and healing-promoting factors. The highly concentrated waterless dental cleaning gel can clean and care for patients without the need for water.
[0025] Specifically, the high-altitude special emergency unit includes an oral frostbite / hemostasis and soothing gel, an oral mucosa repair patch, and a special applicator. The oral frostbite / hemostasis and soothing gel is individually sealed. The gel has the effects of rapid film formation, irritation isolation, blood circulation promotion, pain relief, and healing promotion. Its main components include lidocaine for local anesthesia, extracts similar to traditional Chinese medicine such as Jingwanhong ointment for promoting blood circulation and tissue regeneration, and chitosan for hemostasis and film formation. The oral mucosal repair patch is used to cover severe ulcers or broken surfaces, providing physical protection and sustained-release medication; The specialized applicator has a cotton swab tip at one end and a flat application tip at the other, making it easy to accurately apply the gel and place the repair patch.
[0026] Specifically, the control unit includes a controller body 4, a display screen 5 is mounted on the side wall of the controller body 4, and a button 9 is also provided on one side of the display screen 5; The upper surface of the controller body 4 is also equipped with a sealing plug 3. The controller body 4 contains an atomizing conduit 14, which is connected to the pressurized humidifying device 11. When in use, the sealing cover can be opened to remove the atomizing conduit and perform humidification on the oral cavity. The connector of the atomizing conduit is adapted to the mask.
[0027] Specifically, it also includes a carrying strap 1, which has an adjustment buckle 2 installed in the middle, and both ends of the carrying strap 1 are connected to the upper end of the integrated housing 15.
[0028] Example
[0029] When soldiers are camping or resting on the plateau, they can take out this device. If they feel that their mouth is dry, they can turn on the button on the integrated casing to start the micro air pump. About 5mL of water is drawn from the water reservoir (capacity of about 30mL, which can be replenished by the soldier himself). After heating to about 30-35℃, the water is atomized and sprayed into the mouth for about 1 minute through the atomizing tube. Afterwards, use a multi-functional toothbrush to apply the highly concentrated waterless toothpaste to brush your teeth to complete an effective basic care. If oral mucosal damage or frostbite occurs, take out the special applicator and oral frostbite / hemostatic soothing gel, use the applicator to take an appropriate amount of gel, and apply it directly and evenly to the affected area. The gel quickly forms a film, which can isolate, relieve pain and promote healing. For larger ulcers, you can use the included small scissors to cut oral mucosal repair strips to cover them. The foldable solar panels on the unibody exterior can replenish the built-in power supply during the day. The entire device weighs less than 350 grams and is smaller than a standard soldier's mess kit, making it easy to put into a tactical vest or backpack for soldiers to carry.
