Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a deformable traditional Chinese medicine hot compress bag. Background Art

[0002] Herbal hot ironing is an external treatment method used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Different herbal formulas are selected based on TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment principles. The herbs are placed in a cloth bag, heated to an appropriate temperature, and then moved back and forth or in a circular motion over the affected area or acupoints to achieve the therapeutic effect. Herbal hot packing is a non-invasive external treatment method that combines hot compresses with acupoint stimulation. Different herbal formulas are selected based on TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment principles. The herbs are placed in a cloth bag, heated to an appropriate temperature, and then applied flatly to the patient's treatment area. This opens the skin and pores, improving local blood circulation and promoting the penetration of the active ingredients into the bloodstream, reaching the lesion directly, thus achieving a "targeted medication" effect. Both of these appropriate techniques utilize the power of warmth to transmit the medicinal properties from within, through the skin and pores, along the meridians, and into the internal organs. They have the effects of dredging the meridians, unblocking the Qi flow, warming the middle and dispelling cold, dispelling wind and dampness, relieving pain and reducing swelling, and regulating the yin and yang of the internal organs.

[0003] Currently, commonly used hot compress bags are spherical and square, with the square being the most common. Closures for dosing medications are typically zippered or drawstring. While spherical bags offer a smoother shape and greater flexibility, they better suit the back-and-forth or rotating motion required for traditional Chinese medicine hot compresses. However, their smaller size doesn't allow for the flat application of hot compresses to various treatment areas. Square bags, with their larger surface area and evenly distributed medication, are more suitable for flat application to various treatment areas. However, due to the looser distribution of medication, which easily dissipates heat and cools, they don't meet the temperature requirements of traditional Chinese medicine hot compresses. Furthermore, the back-and-forth movement of square bags can easily cause scratches on the skin.

[0004] In view of this, the applicant conducted in-depth research on this demand, which led to the present case. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the problem that the existing hot compress bags have relatively limited applicability. According to clinical operation requirements, the utility model combines the characteristics of square compress bags and spherical compress bags to design a deformable Chinese medicine hot compress bag to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A deformable Chinese medicine hot compress bag comprises a square outer bag and an inner bag. The four corners of the outer bag are smoothly rounded, and the outer bag body is surrounded by sutures. A drawstring is passed between the sutures and the edge of the outer bag body. The two ends of the drawstring pass through the same position of the outer bag and are placed outside the edge of the outer bag. The inner bag is placed inside the outer bag. After the drawstring is tightened and fixed, the outer bag can be spherical.

[0008] By providing drawstrings around the outer bag, the shape of the compress can be tailored to the specific disease and individual. Users can choose the shape of the compress according to different operational requirements. If a spherical compress is required, the drawstrings are tightened; if a square compress is required, the drawstrings are loosened. This allows hot ironing and hot compresses to be performed sequentially without refilling the bag, saving medical staff labor. The provision of inner and outer bags enhances the thermal insulation effect of the compress.

[0009] Preferably, an opening is provided on one side of the outer bag, and a cover cloth is provided on the outer bag near the opening, and the cover cloth covers the opening.

[0010] Preferably, when the outer bag is spherical, one side of the outer bag provided with an opening is partially or completely wrapped around the other side of the outer bag tightened by the drawstring.

[0011] Preferably, the outer edge of one side of the cover cloth close to the opening is provided with a double-sided adhesive strip or Velcro that fits the opening.

[0012] Preferably, a nylon zipper is provided at the opening.

[0013] Preferably, the inner bag is made of graphene knitted fabric.

[0014] The graphene fabric has the effects of antibacterial and anti-mite, antistatic, far-infrared and heat storage. The inner bag is made of graphene knitted fabric, which can increase the thermal insulation effect of the bag while ensuring breathability, and also has antibacterial and antibacterial effects.

[0015] Preferably, the drawstring is provided with a pig nose buckle, through which both ends of the drawstring pass, and the pig nose buckle can be used to adjust the tightness of the drawstring edge. The drawstring is a cotton rope or an elastic rope. After being gathered, the ends of the drawstring can be directly tied into a knot, or the ends can be restrained with a tool such as a pig nose buckle.

[0016] Preferably, the outer bag is made of pure cotton fabric, non-woven fabric or canvas fabric.

[0017] Preferably, a stopwatch timer is provided on the bag surface of the outer bag.

[0018] Preferably, the distance between the edge of the outer bag and the suture line is 0.8 to 1.5 cm, the length of the outer bag is 30 to 50 cm, and the width is 20 to 40 cm.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] (1) By arranging drawstrings around the outer bag body, the user can select the shape of the compress bag according to different operation requirements: if the compress bag needs to be spherical, the drawstring is tightened; if the compress bag needs to be square, the drawstring is loosened. In this way, the Chinese medicine hot ironing and Chinese medicine hot compress operations can be performed successively without refilling the compress bag, saving the labor of medical staff.

[0021] (2) By providing inner and outer bags and an opening on the outer bag, medicine can be added or the inner bag can be replaced according to actual conditions. The inner bag is made of graphene knitted fabric, which can increase the thermal insulation effect of the bag while ensuring the breathable function. It also has antibacterial and antimicrobial effects and delays the use time to achieve the best therapeutic effect.

[0022] (3) This application uses one compress bag to perform two operations, which can save hospitals money on drugs and materials, and patients can reduce treatment costs, making it more acceptable. The materials used in the improved hot ironing bag are easy to obtain, low in cost, simple in manufacturing process, easy to operate, and easy to implement. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
