Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical ice pack technology, specifically an ice pack device. Background Technology

[0002] Applying ice packs works by using the heat generated from burning subcutaneous fat to maintain a constant local temperature. Therefore, it is more effective for people with thicker subcutaneous fat. This method is particularly suitable for body shaping in summer and is very easy to perform.

[0003] A search revealed an application number "CN202120094119.5" for an orthopedic ice pack device. This utility model discloses an orthopedic ice pack device, including an ice pack device, a partition plate installed on one side of the ice pack device, a fixing nut installed on one side of the ice pack device, a fixing elastic band installed on one side of the ice pack device, and an ice pack placement layer inside the ice pack device. An opening and closing cover is installed above the ice pack placement layer. In use, first open the opening and closing cover, place the ice pack in the ice pack placement layer, close the opening and closing cover, and then place the ice pack device on the injured area, with the bottom of the ice pack placement layer overlapping the injured area. Then, adjust and finally fix the ice pack device using the fixing elastic band and fixing nut. When it is necessary to replace the ice pack, open the opening and closing cover again, take out the ice pack in the ice pack placement layer, put the new ice pack in the ice pack placement layer, and close the opening and closing cover.

[0004] Traditional ice pack devices often produce water vapor condensation, which is caused by the increased temperature difference between the inside and outside leading to unnecessary water vapor condensation. However, some patients have burns that have been treated with antibacterial powder and urgently need cold compresses to cool the wound. They urgently need a gentle ice pack device that does not irritate the wound. This device uses a method similar to air conditioning, which uses low-temperature air to apply ice packs, avoiding the problem of direct irritation from applying ice packs using conventional techniques. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ice pack device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an ice pack device, including an ice bucket storage mechanism;

[0007] The ice bucket storage mechanism is characterized by: an air inlet hood, a pressurized air inlet in the middle of the air inlet hood, a worm gear fan embedded inside the pressurized air inlet, a drive motor mounted on the back of the worm gear fan, the output end of the drive motor being connected to the back of the worm gear fan, and an air outlet duct connected to the air outlet end of the air inlet hood.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the top of the air inlet hood is provided with an ice bucket, and several layers of gas conveying pipes are sequentially sleeved in the middle of the ice bucket. An insulation sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the several layers of gas conveying pipes, and an ice block placement opening is provided at the top of the insulation sleeve.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the top of the ice cube placement opening is covered with an ice bucket lid, the top surface of the ice bucket lid is provided with a rotating groove, the middle of the rotating groove is provided with a rotating protrusion, and the back of the rotating protrusion is provided with a buckle.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the top of the ice bucket lid is equipped with a temperature detector sandwiched between the side wall and the inner wall of the ice bucket, and the top of the ice bucket has an air outlet, the end of which is connected to a gas delivery pipe.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: a binding mechanism is installed at the end of the gas transmission duct;

[0012] The binding mechanism includes an airbag installed at the end of the gas delivery duct. The top center of the airbag is connected to an ice pack cooling airbag. The inside of the ice pack cooling airbag is hollow, and an upper cooling airbag is connected to the top of the ice pack cooling airbag.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: both the upper cooling bag and the outer wall of the ice-cooling airbag are bound with tightening elastic bands, the side wall of the ice-cooling airbag is provided with an elastic frame and the back is provided with a correction sleeve, and the end of the correction sleeve is equipped with a binding strap.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the bottom of the ice pack cooling airbag is connected to a drain pipe with a liquid receiving structure.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] 1) By using an air inlet hood and a worm gear fan, the drive motor drives the worm gear fan to rotate, drawing in room temperature air from the air inlet hood and releasing it onto the outer surface of the ice bucket. The low temperature outer wall lowers the air temperature until it moves layer by layer from the gas delivery tube, changing position to reach the air bag, which facilitates preparation for subsequent ice application to the patient's body surface and improves the efficiency of ice application. Using room temperature air to cool the ice application results in less irritation than applying ice directly with ice cubes, and avoids condensation into water droplets that irritate the wound surface.

[0017] 2) The binding straps and drainage tubes are used to bind the parts that need cold compresses, ensuring that during the cold compress process, the low-temperature areas: ice packs and cooling bags are in contact with the body surface. Tighten the binding straps, and use cold air instead of ice to reach the injured area of ​​the patient, which can also achieve the function of cold compress. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The ice bucket storage mechanism 1 includes an air inlet hood 11, a pressurized air inlet 12 is provided in the middle of the air inlet hood 11, a worm gear fan 13 is embedded inside the pressurized air inlet 12, a drive motor 14 is installed on the back of the worm gear fan 13, the output end of the drive motor 14 is connected to the back of the worm gear fan 13 for transmission, and an air outlet duct 15 is connected to the air outlet end of the air inlet hood 11.

[0031] In this embodiment: an ice bucket 16 is provided at the top of the air inlet hood 11, several layers of gas delivery pipes 17 are sequentially connected to the middle of the ice bucket 16, and an insulation sleeve 18 is connected to the outside of the several layers of gas delivery pipes 17. An ice block placement port 19 is opened at the top of the insulation sleeve 18.

[0032] Ice is placed in the ice bucket 16 in this space. The coldness of the ice helps to cool the air, and then it is delivered as cold air to the designated airbag 21 for cold compress.

[0033] In this embodiment: the top of the ice cube placement opening 19 is covered with an ice bucket lid 191, the top surface of the ice bucket lid 191 is provided with a rotating groove 192, the middle of the rotating groove 192 is provided with a rotating protrusion 193, and the back of the rotating protrusion 193 is provided with a buckle 194.

[0034] The buckle 194 is used to seal the ice bucket lid 191 in real time, or it can be disassembled and then opened to fill ice.

[0035] In this embodiment: a temperature detector 195 is installed on the top of the ice bucket lid 191, and the side wall of the ice bucket 16 is sandwiched with the inner wall of the ice bucket 16 for sensing. An air outlet 196 is opened on the top of the ice bucket 16, and an air supply pipe 197 is connected to the end of the air outlet 196.

[0036] The temperature detector 195 installed in the system detects the temperature inside the ice bucket 16.

[0037] In this embodiment: a binding mechanism 2 is installed at the end of the gas delivery conduit 197;

[0038] The binding mechanism 2 includes an airbag 21 installed at the end of the gas supply duct 197. An ice pack cooling airbag 22 is connected to the middle of the top of the airbag 21. The inside of the ice pack cooling airbag 22 is hollow, and an upper cooling airbag 23 is connected to the top of the ice pack cooling airbag 22.

[0039] The airbag 21 and the ice-cooling airbag 22 are used to transfer the low-temperature gas after cooling into the ice-cooling airbag 22, the airbag 21 and the upper cooling bag 23.

[0040] In this embodiment: both the upper cooling bag 23 and the outer side wall of the ice pack cooling airbag 22 are bound with tightening elastic bands. The side wall of the ice pack cooling airbag 22 is provided with an elastic frame 24 and the back is provided with a correction sleeve 25. The end of the correction sleeve 25 is equipped with a binding strap 26.

[0041] The corrective sheath 25 is used to bind to the area of ​​the patient that needs cooling.

[0042] The bottom of the ice pack cooling airbag 22 is connected to a drain pipe 27 with a liquid receiving structure.

[0043] The ice pack cooling airbag 22 and the drain tube 27 are used to remove excess liquid or gas.

[0044] First step: Place ice cubes to cool the conductor;

[0045] At this point, the person first moves the buckle 194 and the rotating protrusion 193 to open, so that a gap is formed between the buckle 194 and the rotating protrusion 193. After disengagement, the person pinches the rotating protrusion 193 with their fingers, loosens the ice bucket lid 191, adds ice made by the ice maker to the opening of the ice bucket 16, adds an appropriate amount of water to form an ice-liquid mixture, and leaves space at 2 / 3 of the volume of the ice bucket 16 to promote the melting of the ice.

[0046] Tighten the ice bucket lid 191, turn on the drive motor 14, drive the worm gear fan 13 and fan blades to rotate, forming a cyclone force. Room temperature air, along the position of the air outlet duct 15, extends and guides the specific gas circulation along the gas delivery pipe 17 wrapped in the inner wall of the ice bucket 16 until the gas is transferred to the designated binding mechanism 2. Through the binding elastic frame 24 and the correction sleeve 25, the correction sleeve 25 is directly bound to the patient's body surface that needs cold compress, relieving pain. Cooling air is placed into the upper cooling bag 23 and the ice compress cooling air bag 22. The cold air is conducted through the bag itself and directly achieves low temperature transfer on the surface of the upper cooling bag 23 to achieve low temperature ice compress on the wound. Personnel need to tighten the binding strap 26 to bind the gas. The room temperature gas gradually cools down as it wraps around the gas delivery pipe 17 layer by layer.

[0047] Step 2: Gas is released;

[0048] Additional liquid is discharged due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside. Loosen the drain pipe 27 and finally guide it to the drain pipe 27 to achieve ventilation, and transfer the extra liquid to the outside.
