[0002] An ice pack is a cold compress that, by fixing the ice pack on the injured or painful area, can provide a continuous cold compress effect to help relieve pain, swelling and inflammation. It can not only be used for postoperative care, fever and low-grade fever in medical settings, but can also be used for ice compresses after exercise to prevent accidental sprains, strains and bruises, or help us relieve heat and fatigue in home emergencies.

[0003] At present, there is a lack of a dedicated ice bag fixing structure for the use of ice bags, and they are usually tied with bandages. Long-term use may cause discomfort due to excessive tightness and restrict the movement of the injured part, affecting daily activities and rehabilitation. Ice bags may also cause frostbite when applied directly to exposed skin, so they should not be tied too tightly. However, if they are tied too loosely, the ice bags will easily slip from the fitting place, and the tightness is difficult to control. At the same time, the ice bags will become warm after being used for a period of time and need to be replaced. The existing binding method requires the ice bag and bandage to be completely removed and then replaced, which is a cumbersome process and is not suitable for long-term use postoperative care, fever, low-grade fever, etc. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model or the prior art, the utility model will be briefly introduced below in combination with the drawings and the description of the embodiments or the prior art. Obviously, the following description of the structure of the drawings is only some embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative work. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand the utility model, but does not constitute a limitation of the utility model.

[0022] Example:

[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a fixing device for ice pack application, including a restraining sleeve 1, elastic rings 2 are installed at both ends of the restraining sleeve 1, a plurality of carrying bags 3 are arranged in a circumferential array on the outer circumferential wall of the restraining sleeve 1, and ice packs 4 are installed in the carrying bags 3;

[0024] The elastic ring 2 has two ends formed by cutting openings and is respectively equipped with an elastic member 5 and an elastic band 6. The elastic member 5 has a base 8 and is fixedly connected to the outer facade of the elastic ring 2 through the base 8. Insert holes 9 are provided through openings at both ends of the base 8. A locking hole 10 is provided through a groove on the outer facade of the base 8 and a locking plate 11 is rotatably provided. Locking teeth 12 and a spring 14 are respectively fixedly installed at both ends of the locking plate 11.

[0025] In a specific application scenario, the restraint sleeve 1 is inserted into and wrapped around the user's limb or joint to be cooled, and then the elastic ring 2 is squeezed to make it elastically contract to match the thickness of the user's limb or joint, driving the elastic band 6 to be inserted into the plug hole 9 simultaneously. During the insertion process, the locking teeth 12 are set to the one-way ratchet, so that the locking teeth 12 pass through the locking hole 10 and then insert into the elastic hole 7 to lock the elastic band 6 as a whole, so that the elastic ring 2 fits the user's skin with appropriate tightness, and the two ends of the area to be cooled are fixed by the elastic ring 2 respectively without affecting the movement of the area wrapped by the restraint sleeve 1, so that the ice pack 4 contained in the carrying bag 3 can cool the user's limb or joint. The following is a further description of the practical ice pack fixing device in conjunction with this application scenario.

[0026] Further, refer to Figure 1-4 The outer circumferential wall of the restraint sleeve 1 is folded and one side thereof is cut longitudinally, a gap is reserved between the plurality of carrying bags 3 , and the longitudinal cut of the restraint sleeve 1 is matched with the cut opening of the elastic ring 2 .

[0027] In the present embodiment, during the process of wrapping and cooling the user's limbs or joints with the restraint sleeve 1, in order to make the size of the restraint sleeve 1 adapt to the thickness of the limbs or joints, the outer circumferential wall of the restraint sleeve 1 is pleated and longitudinally cut, so that the restraint sleeve 1 can be stretched by means of the pleats and the incisions and stretching space is reserved, which is beneficial for the restraint sleeve 1 to fit the user's limbs or joints, maintain the cooling effect, and ensure that the fixing device will not be too tight or too loose, thereby improving the user experience; by setting the longitudinal incision of the restraint sleeve 1 to adapt to the cutting opening of the elastic ring 2, the extension of the restraint sleeve 1 and the elastic ring 2 are kept consistent.

[0028] For more details, see Figure 1-4 The restraining sleeve 1 and the carrying bag 3 are both made of diving material, and the top of the carrying bag 3 is capped by arranging a zipper and a cover plate.

[0029] In this embodiment, during the cold compress process of the user, the ice pack 4 will gradually warm up and condense water droplets as time goes by. In order to prevent the water droplets from spilling everywhere or flowing onto the user, forming water stains or wetting clothes, the restraint sleeve 1 and the carrying bag 3 are isolated by using neoprene material to isolate the water droplets, and a zipper and a cover are provided at the top of the carrying bag 3 to seal it, thereby achieving the cold compress function while preventing the water droplets from affecting the user experience, and the carrying bag 3 is used to place the ice pack 4, and when the ice pack 4 needs to be replaced, it can be directly taken out of the ice pack 4 for replacement, thereby increasing the replacement efficiency of the ice pack 4; at the same time, the restraint sleeve 1 and the carrying bag 3 are used to isolate the ice pack 4 to prevent the ice pack 4 from directly contacting the user's skin and causing frostbite, thereby improving the safety during the cold compress process.

[0030] More preferably, referring to Figure 1-4 The elastic band 6 is arranged in an arc shape and its curvature matches that of the elastic ring 2 , and the elastic band 6 and the plug-in hole 9 are matched and inserted.

[0031] In this embodiment, during the cold compress process using the device, in order to fix the device at both ends of the user's limbs or joints, the elastic band 6 and the plug-in hole 9 are inserted into a closed circular ring to achieve a fixing effect on the user, and in order to maintain the stability of the insertion, the elastic band 6 is arranged in an arc shape so that the elastic band 6 is adapted to the elastic ring 2 to maintain the stability and accuracy of the insertion angle.

[0032] More preferably, referring to Figure 1-4 A plurality of elastic holes 7 are formed through the elastic band 6, and the locking teeth 12 are one-way ratchet settings. The locking teeth 12 are matched with the elastic holes 7, and the locking holes 10 are provided for the locking teeth 12 to penetrate and insert.

[0033] In the present embodiment, during the process of the elastic band 6 being inserted into the plug-in hole 9, in order to prevent the elastic band 6 from slipping out of the plug-in hole 9 and thus being unable to maintain the stability of the insertion, the one-way ratchet setting of the locking tooth 12 is utilized so that the locking tooth 12 passes through the locking hole 10 and is inserted into the elastic hole 7 to lock the elastic band 6 as a whole, thereby forming a one-way insertion function for the elastic band 6, and finally achieving the anti-slipping function for the elastic band 6, thereby maintaining the stability of the insertion of the elastic band 6.

[0034] Furthermore, refer to Figure 1-4 A raised portion 13 is provided at one end of the locking plate 11 close to the spring 14 , and the pressing height of the end is raised by the raised portion 13 .

[0035] In this embodiment, during cold compress, after the elastic band 6 is inserted into the insertion hole 9 and locked by the locking teeth 12, the spring 14 continuously drives the end of the locking plate 11 close to the arched portion 13 upwards through its own elasticity, so that the locking teeth 12 at the other end of the locking plate 11 are kept driven downwards, so that the locking teeth 12 remain stably inserted in the elastic hole 7, and thus the elastic band 6 remains stably inserted; and after the cold compress is completed, the fixing device needs to be removed. At this time, the spring 14 is compressed and force is accumulated by pressing the arched portion 13, so that the locking teeth 12 are lifted and disengaged from the elastic hole 7, thereby releasing the locking state of the elastic band 6 by the locking teeth 12, making it easy to pull the elastic band 6 out of the insertion hole 9, thereby separating the elastic ring 2 from the user's limb or joint surface, so that the elastic ring 2 and the restraint sleeve 1 can be removed from the user as a whole, and the removal is completed;

[0036] In the process of pressing the locking plate 11, in order to prevent the locking tooth 12 from being lifted insufficiently and thus unable to be completely pulled out from the tightening hole 7, an arched portion 13 is provided on the locking plate 11 to increase the pressing height of the end portion, and then the lifting height of the locking tooth 12 is increased by rotating the locking plate 11, thereby keeping the locking tooth 12 stable in insertion and removal from the tightening hole 7.

[0037] More specifically, see Figure 1-4 The ice bag 4 is a soft ice bag with a gel-like cold storage material inside, an elastic metal sheet is installed inside the elastic ring 2, and the surface of the elastic ring 2 is made of plush fabric.

[0038] In the present embodiment, in order to make the ice pack 4 reusable, the ice pack 4 is configured as a soft ice pack for reusability, and its soft property allows it to stretch synchronously with the restraining sleeve 1, so as to always maintain a fitting state to obtain a cooling effect; at the same time, in order to allow the elastic ring 2 to stretch elastically to adapt to the thickness of the user's limbs or joints, an elastic metal sheet is installed inside the elastic ring 2, and its elastic property allows it to recover after stretching for repeated use, thereby increasing the service life of the fixing device; by using plush fabric on the surface of the elastic ring 2, the elastic ring 2 remains comfortable when fitting the user's skin, thereby improving the user experience.

[0039] Working principle:

[0040] The utility model provides an ice pack fixing device. First, the user's limb or joint area to be cooled is inserted into the binding sleeve 1 for wrapping, and the elastic rings 2 at both ends of the binding sleeve 1 are respectively located at the top and bottom of the area to be cooled. Then, the elastic ring 2 is squeezed to make it elastically contract to match the thickness of the user's limb or joint. At the same time, the contraction of the elastic ring 2 drives the elastic band 6 to be synchronously inserted into the plug hole 9. During the insertion process, the locking tooth 12 is inserted into the elastic hole 7 after passing through the locking hole 10 by using the one-way ratchet setting of the locking tooth 12. The elastic band 6 is locked as a whole, forming a one-way insertion function of the elastic band 6, and finally achieving the anti-slip function of the elastic band 6, maintaining the stable insertion of the elastic band 6, so that the elastic ring 2 fits the user's skin with appropriate tightness, so that the two ends of the area to be cold-compressed are fixed by the elastic ring 2 respectively without affecting the movement of the area wrapped by the restraint sleeve 1, so that the ice pack 4 in the carrying bag 3 will not restrict the movement of the limbs or joints in the area to be cold-compressed during the process of applying cold compress to the user's limbs or joints, thereby improving the rehabilitation effect and not affecting daily activities;

[0041] At the same time, through the neoprene setting of the binding sleeve 1 and the carrying bag 3, when the ice pack 4 needs to be replaced, it can be directly taken out from the ice pack 4 for replacement, so there is no need to remove the entire fixing device, which improves the replacement efficiency of the ice pack 4; the ice pack 4 is isolated by the binding sleeve 1 and the carrying bag 3 to prevent the ice pack 4 from directly contacting the user's skin to cause frostbite, improve the safety during the cold compress process, and prevent water droplets from spilling;

[0042] When removal is necessary, the spring 14 is compressed and stored by pressing the arch 13, driving the locking tooth 12 to lift and disengage from the elastic hole 7, thereby releasing the locking state of the elastic band 6 by the locking tooth 12, making it easy to pull the elastic band 6 out of the plug-in hole 9, and then separating the elastic ring 2 from the user's limb or joint surface, making it easy for the user to pull the limb or joint out of the restraint sleeve 1 to complete the separation.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
