Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary products technology, and more specifically to an ear-hook submandibular ice patch after tonsillectomy. Background Technology

[0002] Tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the tonsils, a common surgical treatment for recurrent tonsillitis and enlarged tonsils. Patients often experience severe sore throat, pain when swallowing, ear pain, and fever after tonsillectomy, with these symptoms being particularly pronounced within the first 24 hours post-surgery. Therefore, it is necessary to apply ice packs to the submandibular region post-surgery, primarily for cold compresses to reduce pain, swelling, and bleeding.

[0003] Traditional methods of cold compresses after tonsillectomy often involve freezing water or 10% saline solution. However, this method is cumbersome, difficult to secure, and doesn't allow for sufficient contact with the skin, thus affecting the effectiveness of the cold compress. Currently, there are some specialized ice packs for cold compresses after tonsillectomy. However, these ice packs often don't fit snugly against the jawline, affecting the overall effectiveness of the cold compress.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an ear-hook submandibular ice patch to solve the above problems after tonsillectomy. Utility Model Content

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 A type of ear-hook submandibular ice patch after tonsillectomy includes an elastic band 1, with ear cords 2 fixedly connected to both ends of the elastic band 1, and an adjustment mechanism 3 symmetrically provided in the middle of the elastic band 1. An ice patch fixing cover 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the adjustment mechanism 3, and an ice patch body 5 is provided on the inner side of the ice patch fixing cover 4.

[0026] The adjustment mechanism 3 includes a mounting box 8. An elastic band fixing hole 9 is opened through the middle of the mounting box 8. The elastic band 1 passes through the elastic band fixing hole 9. A mounting cavity 10 is opened inside the mounting box 8. A pressing plate 11 is provided in the middle of the mounting cavity 10. A spring 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the pressing plate 11. The spring 12 is fixedly connected to the mounting cavity 10. L-shaped fixing rods 14 are fixedly connected to both ends of the pressing plate 11. One end of the L-shaped fixing rod 14 extends out of the mounting box 8 and is fixedly connected to a pressure plate 13. A conical protrusion 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the pressing plate 11. There are multiple conical protrusions 15, and the multiple conical protrusions 15 are distributed in a rectangular array.

[0027] In this embodiment, by setting the ear cord 2, the problems of bulkiness and difficulty in fixing in traditional ice pack methods are solved; by setting the mounting box 8, under the combined action of the compression plate 11, spring 12, pressure plate 13, L-shaped fixing rod 14 and conical protrusion 15, it is easy to restrict or release the elastic band 1, and convenient to adjust the specific position of the ice pack fixing cover 4, so that the ice pack body 5 can fit more closely to the area of ​​the patient's jaw that needs ice packing, thereby improving the cold compress effect.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] Please see Figure 2-3 This embodiment is a further optimization based on embodiment 1. Specifically, a hook and loop fastener 6 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the ice patch fixing cover 4, and a hook and loop fastener 7 is connected to the surface of the hook and loop fastener 6. The surface of the hook and loop fastener 7 is provided with adhesive, and the hook and loop fastener 7 is bonded to the ice patch body 5 by the adhesive. A thin film is also provided on the surface of the adhesive of the hook and loop fastener 7. The hook and loop fastener 6 is reusable, and the hook and loop fastener 7 is used to be replaced together with the ice patch body 5.

[0030] In this embodiment, the ice patch body 5 is fixed by setting the female hook and loop fastener 6 and the male hook and loop fastener 7, so that the patient can easily replace the ice patch body 5 when needed, without having to replace the entire ear-loop ice patch. This not only reduces the cost of use, but also improves the convenience of use for the patient.

[0031] Working principle: When using, first stick the ice patch body 5 to the adhesive backing of the hook and loop fastener 7 (the thin film on the adhesive backing of the hook and loop fastener 7 needs to be peeled off before use), then stick the hook and loop fastener 7 to the hook and loop fastener 7 on the surface of the ice patch fixing cover 4, then place the ice patch fixing cover 4 under the chin and hang the ear loop 2 on the ear; when the position needs to be adjusted, hold the elastic band 1 with one hand, pinch the mounting box 8 with the index and middle fingers of the other hand, and press the pressure plate 13 with the thumb. At this time, the pressure plate 13 drives the squeezing plate 11 to move upward through the L-shaped fixing rod 14. The squeezing plate 11 drives the conical protrusion 15 away from the elastic band 1. After the elastic band 1 is no longer restricted, it can be moved; when the position is adjusted, release the pressure plate 13. At this time, under the tension of the spring 12, the squeezing plate 11 presses the squeezing plate 11 against the surface of the elastic band 1. The squeezing plate 11 is firmly fixed to the surface of the elastic band 1 by the conical protrusion 15, forming a fixation.
