Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of surgical gowns, specifically to a surgical gown and its folding method. Background Technology

[0002] Surgical gowns, as essential protective clothing during surgery, reduce the risk of medical personnel coming into contact with pathogens and also reduce the risk of pathogen transmission between medical personnel and patients. They serve as a safety barrier in sterile areas during surgical procedures. Surgical gowns can be used for surgical procedures, patient care, public health checks, disinfection of virus-contaminated areas, and are also widely used in military, medical, chemical, environmental protection, transportation, and epidemic prevention fields.

[0003] Currently, surgical gowns need to be made in different lengths and sizes according to the height of different users, which requires the preparation of a large number of surgical gowns of different lengths and sizes, resulting in a waste of resources. Moreover, if people of similar height wear surgical gowns, the same length and size may not fit them well due to differences in the proportions of their upper and lower body, because surgical gowns are already of a fixed length and size, so they cannot be adjusted. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a surgical gown whose length can be adjusted to suit the wearing requirements of individuals of similar height.

[0005] A surgical gown includes a surgical gown body and a surgical cap, wherein the surgical gown body and the surgical cap are designed as a single piece, the surgical gown body includes a front placket and a back placket, the front placket is made of three layers of non-woven fabric, the back placket and the surgical cap are made of a single layer of SMMS non-woven fabric, and the surgical gown body has sleeves on both sides. The surgical gown body has a hem at the bottom, which is detachably attached to the bottom of the front and back flaps of the surgical gown.

[0006] In one embodiment, the hem is attached to the bottom of the front and back flaps of the surgical gown by adhesive strips.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0018] It should be noted that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intermediary component present. Conversely, when a component is said to be "directly" connected to another component, there is no intermediary component.

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0020] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a surgical gown includes a surgical gown body 1 and a surgical cap 2. The surgical gown body 1 and the surgical cap 2 are designed as a single piece. The surgical gown body 1 includes a front flap 11 and a back flap 12. The front flap 11 is made of three layers of non-woven fabric, and the back flap 12 and the surgical cap 2 are made of a single layer of SMMS non-woven fabric. The surgical gown body 1 has sleeves 13 on both sides. The surgical gown body 1 has a hem 14 at the bottom, which is detachably installed at the bottom of the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown; the hem 14 is attached to the bottom of the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown by Velcro; the hem 14 is fastened to the bottom of the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown by a snap fastener structure.

[0021] The surgical gown body 1 and surgical cap 2 are sewn together using four-thread stitching. Four-thread stitching provides better strength and aesthetics and is often used in areas such as the collar, hem, and cuffs to enhance the quality of the garment and make the connection between the surgical gown body 1 and surgical cap 2 more secure. At the same time, the one-piece design of the surgical gown body 1 and surgical cap 2 also provides better protection.

[0022] The front flap 11 of the surgical gown body 1 is made of three layers of non-woven fabric. Each layer consists of a first PP layer, a PE layer, and a second PP layer. The PP layer is made of polypropylene, and the PE layer is made of polyethylene. Both the PP and PE layers have excellent resistance to acid and alkali corrosion, but the PP layer has better chemical stability at high temperatures. The PP and PE layers each have their unique advantages and applications. Due to its excellent heat resistance and mechanical properties, the PP layer is more suitable for high-temperature environments and applications requiring high strength; while the PE layer, due to its good low-temperature resistance and wide processing adaptability, provides better impermeability to the front flap 11 of the surgical gown body 1.

[0023] The back flap 12 and surgical cap 2 are made of a single layer of SMMS non-woven fabric. SMMS non-woven fabric is commonly known as three-resistant fabric, which has the functions of alcohol resistance, water penetration resistance and antistatic properties. SMMS non-woven fabric generally uses PP material, making surgical cap 2 comfortable and breathable to wear.

[0024] Example 1: The bottom of the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown has a hem 14, which can be removed from the bottom of the front flap 11 and back flap 12. If the hem 14 is attached to the bottom of the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown by Velcro, Velcro can be provided on the side of the hem 14 near the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown. The Velcro has a certain degree of adhesiveness and can be used to attach the hem 14 to the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown. If the person wearing the surgical gown feels that the main body 1 of the surgical gown is too long, the hem 14 can be torn off from the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown. If the person wearing the surgical gown feels that the main body 1 of the surgical gown is too short, the hem 14 can be attached to the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown by Velcro.

[0025] Example 2: The hem 14 is fastened to the bottom of the front and back panels 11 and 12 of the surgical gown by a snap fastener structure. The snap fastener structure generally includes a male snap and a female snap. The female snap is sewn to a preset position at the bottom of the front and back panels 11 and 12 of the surgical gown, and the male snap is sewn to the position of the hem 14 corresponding to the female snap. If the person wearing the surgical gown feels that the main body 1 of the surgical gown is too long, the hem 14 can be torn off from the front and back panels 11 and 12 of the surgical gown to separate the male snap and the female snap. If the person wearing the surgical gown feels that the main body 1 of the surgical gown is too short, the hem 14 can be fastened to the front and back panels 11 and 12 of the surgical gown by the male snap and the female snap.

[0026] Thus, the surgical gown, including the surgical gown body 1 and the surgical cap 2, is designed as a single piece. The surgical gown body 1 includes a front flap 11 and a back flap 12. The bottom of the front flap 11 and the back flap 12 of the surgical gown has a hem 14. The hem 14 is detachably installed at the bottom of the front flap 11 of the surgical gown. The width of the hem 14 can be set according to actual needs. If the wearer feels that the surgical gown is too long, the hem 14 can be torn off to make the surgical gown fit the wearer better. At the same time, the design of the surgical gown body 1 and the surgical cap 2 as a single piece can provide better protection for the wearer.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the cuff of the sleeve 13 has an elastic thread 3 for tightening the cuff 131.

[0028] In this way, the elastic threaded part 3 is a ring structure and is set at the cuff 131 of the sleeve 13 of the surgical gown body 1. When the surgical gown is put on, the elastic threaded part 3 at the cuff 131 can be fastened to the wrist to prevent foreign objects or liquids from entering the surgical gown body 1 from the wrist.

[0029] In one embodiment, the connection of the sleeve 13 is achieved by hot-press welding, and an adhesive strip 4 is attached to the front of the connection after hot-press welding.

[0030] In this way, the sleeve 13 is usually made by shaping a piece of fabric into a cylindrical shape and then sewing the two adjacent sides together to form a sleeve 13 structure. However, because the adjacent sides of the sleeve 13 are sewn together, there will be gaps in the sewn parts, which can easily allow external liquids to leak into the surgical gown body 1. Therefore, this application uses heat-press welding on the adjacent sides of the sleeve 13, and then attaches an adhesive strip 4 to the front of the heat-press welded area to achieve a good anti-leakage effect.

[0031] In one embodiment, the surgical gown further includes a helmet 5 and a protective goggle 6, the helmet 5 being mounted on the open end of the surgical cap 2, and the protective goggle 6 being magnetically connected to the helmet 5.

[0032] In this way, magnets with opposite magnetic poles can be installed on the helmet 5 and the protective goggle 6 respectively, and the helmet 5 and the protective goggle 6 are connected magnetically, which facilitates the quick installation and removal of the protective goggle 6 from the helmet 5. The helmet 5 can be glued to the open end of the surgical cap 2, which can improve the efficiency of helmet 5 installation and removal.

[0033] In one embodiment, the surgical gown body 1 has a waist clip 7, which serves as a carrier for the waist belt.

[0034] In this way, there can be multiple waist clips 7, which are evenly distributed at the waist position of the surgical gown body 1. The waist belt is passed through the waist clips 7 on the surgical gown body 1 in sequence, and then tied at the waist, serving as a waist belt carrier.

[0035] A method for folding surgical gowns, comprising: S1. Fold the bottom of the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown body 1 outwards by a preset width to form an outer folded part; the width of the outer folded part can be set according to actual needs, at which time the inner layer of the outer folded part of the surgical gown body 1 is folded outwards. S2. Fold the inner layer of the surgical gown body 1 layer by layer to the same width as the outer folded part and form an inner folded part that is nested in sequence; at this time, the surgical gown body 1 forms a rectangular nesting structure from the inside to the outside, and the width of the rectangle is basically the same, while the length gradually decreases. S3. The outermost inner folded part is fitted into the outer folded part; at this time, the front flap 11 and back flap 12 of the surgical gown body 1 are folded, forming an open end at the bottom of the surgical gown body 1. S4. Place the surgical cap 2 into the innermost folded part of the innermost layer; ensure that the surgical cap 2 and the opening end formed at the bottom are aligned; S5. Fold the two sleeves 13 inward and place them at both ends of the inner layer of the outer folded part of the surgical gown body 1; make the length of the sleeves 13 after folding them consistent with the width of the outer folded part, so that the sleeves 13 are completely placed at both ends of the inner layer of the outer folded part of the surgical gown body 1. S6. Fold the armholes of the two sleeves 13 outwards; the armholes are where the sleeves 13 connect with the front placket 11 and the back placket 12. Folding the armholes outwards allows both hands to enter the sleeves 13 directly from the armholes, making it convenient to put on the surgical gown quickly. S7. Fold the folded surgical gown in half along the armholes of both sleeves (13). This reduces the overall size of the surgical gown, making it easier to store.

[0036] In one embodiment, the protruding portion of the surgical cap 2, after being housed within the innermost folded portion, is bent and then housed within the innermost folded portion. When the surgical cap 2 is housed within the innermost folded portion, at least a portion may not be fully housed within it; therefore, the unhoused portion is folded and housed within the innermost folded portion.

[0037] When it is time to put on the surgical gown, unfold the folded surgical gown along the armholes of the two sleeves 13, insert both hands into the two armholes of the two sleeves 13, and then bring your hands out from the sleeves 13. At this point, your hands can hold the entire surgical gown up and put it over the wearer's head. Since the surgical cap 2 is the innermost layer of the surgical gown, it can be placed directly on the wearer's head. The inner folded part of the surgical gown body 1 will slide off the wearer's body layer by layer due to gravity. Finally, fold the outer folded part of the surgical gown body 1 back to its initial position to complete the wearing of the surgical gown. Following the above folding method, the surgical gown can be put on quickly, saving time and allowing time for the next steps.

[0038] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of this invention patent should be determined by the appended claims.
