Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharyngeal care, specifically to an ice pack for the pharynx. Background Technology
[0002] Some existing throat ice packs are made of relatively hard materials to ensure structural stability and cold retention capacity. When worn, they can create pressure on the throat, potentially causing discomfort with prolonged use and even affecting normal swallowing and breathing. Some existing throat ice packs are not reusable, and some disposable throat ice packs are discarded after use, resulting in resource waste and increased environmental pollution. Applying ice packs directly to the throat can easily cause frostbite. While wrapping the throat with a towel can provide cushioning, this is not very convenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned shortcomings by providing an ice pack for the throat.
[0004] This utility model includes a central ice pack receiving bag, which is a rectangular pocket-shaped structure with an open top. An ice pack is placed inside the central ice pack receiving bag. The interior of the ice pack is divided into multiple small compartments, and each small compartment contains a polymer gel.
[0005] A set of elastic fixing straps includes two pairs of elastic connecting straps located on both sides of the central ice pack receiving bag. The outer surface of the left side of each pair of elastic connecting straps is provided with a hook and loop fastener, and the inner surface of the right side of each pair of elastic connecting straps is provided with a hook and loop fastener that matches the hook and loop fastener.
[0006] Preferably, the central ice pack receiving bag includes an outer bag body and an inner bag body, with an ice pack receiving space between the outer bag body and the inner bag body. The outer bag body comprises, from the outside in, the following components:
[0007] The outer layer of EVA is positioned away from the skin of the pharynx;
[0008] A non-woven fabric layer is disposed on the inner side of the outer layer of EVA;
[0009] The outer TPU film is disposed on the inner side of the nonwoven fabric layer;
[0010] The inner bag body includes, from the inside out:
[0011] Inner TPU film layer;
[0012] A pure cotton fabric layer is placed inside the inner TPU film layer, and it comes into contact with the skin of the pharynx.
[0013] Preferably, the thickness of both the outer TPU film and the inner TPU film layer is 0.6-1 mm.
[0014] Preferably, the two pairs of elastic connecting straps are fixed to the top and bottom edges of the central ice pack receiving bag, respectively.
[0015] Preferably, the length of the hook and loop side is greater than the length of the hook and loop side.
[0016] Preferably, the ice pack is made of medical-grade silicone.
[0017] Preferably, the top inner sides of the outer bag and the inner bag are respectively provided with snap buttons and female buttons that engage with each other.
[0018] The advantages of this invention are: it is used to prevent postoperative bleeding in the pharynx and to relieve postoperative pain in patients. It solves the problem of difficulty in fixing ice packs in the pharynx, and the method is simple and highly practical. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the invention.
[0025] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0026] In the description of the embodiments of this invention, it should be noted that if terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," or "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product is in use, they are only for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the invention. Furthermore, if terms such as "first" or "second" appear in the description of this invention, they are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0027] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0028] As shown in the attached figure, this utility model includes a central ice pack receiving bag 1, which is a rectangular pocket-shaped structure with an open top. An ice pack 3 is placed inside the central ice pack receiving bag 1. The interior of the ice pack 3 is divided into multiple small compartments 4, and each small compartment 4 contains a polymer gel.
[0029] A set of elastic fixing straps includes two pairs of elastic connecting straps 6 disposed on both sides of the central ice pack receiving bag 1. The outer surface of the left side of each pair of elastic connecting straps 6 is provided with a hook and loop surface 7, and the inner surface of the right side is provided with a hook and loop hook surface 8 that is adapted to the hook and loop surface 7.
[0030] In another technical solution, the central ice pack receiving bag 1 includes an outer bag body 9 and an inner bag body 10, with a space for accommodating the ice pack 3 between the outer bag body 9 and the inner bag body 10. The outer bag body 9 includes components arranged from the outside inward:
[0031] EVA outer layer 11 is positioned away from the pharyngeal skin;
[0032] Non-woven fabric layer 12 is disposed inside the outer layer 11 of EVA;
[0033] The outer TPU film 13 is disposed on the inner side of the nonwoven fabric layer 12;
[0034] The inner bag 10 includes, from the inside out:
[0035] Inner TPU film layer 14;
[0036] A pure cotton fabric layer is disposed inside the inner TPU film layer 14 and is in contact with the pharyngeal skin.
[0037] In another technical solution, the thickness of both the outer TPU film 13 and the inner TPU film layer 14 is 0.6-1 mm.
[0038] In another technical solution, two pairs of elastic connecting straps 6 are respectively fixed to the top and bottom edges of the central ice pack receiving bag 1.
[0039] In another technical solution, the length of the hook and loop side 7 is greater than the length of the hook and loop side 8, which facilitates fixing according to the size of the pharynx.
[0040] In another technical solution, the ice pack 3 is made of medical-grade silicone. The material is soft, and its good flexibility allows it to conform to the irregular curves of the pharynx. Simultaneously, silicone is waterproof, effectively preventing leakage of the internal polymer gel and ensuring safe use.
[0041] In another technical solution, the top inner sides of the outer bag 9 and the inner bag 10 are respectively provided with interlocking snap buttons and female buttons. This further stabilizes the position of the ice pack and prevents it from shaking.
[0042] Instructions for use: Medical staff place the ice pack 3 inside the central ice pack receiving sleeve 1, then fasten it with snaps to adhere the pure cotton fabric layer of the inner bag 10 to the pharynx. Finally, secure the central ice pack receiving sleeve 1 to the pharynx using the Velcro loops 7 and hooks 8 of the two pairs of elastic connecting straps 6. This novel pharyngeal ice pack is used to prevent postoperative bleeding and alleviate postoperative pain in patients. It solves the problem of difficulty in securing pharyngeal ice packs, and the method is simple and highly practical.
