Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kompresse, bestehend aus zwei miteinander verschweißten Folien mit Abteilen für Wärme oder Kälte speichernde Medien.The invention relates to a compress consisting of two foils welded together with compartments for heat or Cold-storing media.
Kompressen dieser Art sind aus der medizinischen Heilbehandlung als Paraffin-Fango-Kompressen bekannt. Dabei sind zwei Folien so miteinander verschweißt, daß sich zwischen ihnen einzelne miteinander in Verbindung stehende längliche Abteile bilden, die mit Paraffin-Fango gefüllt sind. Die Kompresse wird an einer Stelle gefüllt; dabei verteilt sich das Medium von der Einfüllöffnung herüber die gesamte Kompresse und die verdrängte Luft entweicht. Wenn die Kompresse gefüllt ist, werden die Einfüllöffnungen und die Luftentweichöffnungen verschweißt. Wegen der durch die Art der Herstellung bedingten Verbindung aller Abteile miteinander kann sich bei nicht gleichmäßig verteilter Last ergeben, daß das Medium von einzelnen Stellen der Packung bzw. Abteilen verdrängt wird. Um dies zu vermeiden, muß die Packung relativ prall gefüllt sein. Dies bedingt wiederum recht dicke Folien und ergibt eine nicht ausreichende Flexibilität der Packung, wie sie an sich zur Anpassung an die verschiedensten Körperpartien wünschenswert wäre.Compresses of this type are medical Healing treatment known as paraffin fango compresses. Here are two foils welded together so that between individual elongated ones related to each other Form compartments filled with paraffin fango. The Compress is filled in one place; thereby spreads the medium from the filling opening across the entire Compress and the displaced air escapes. If the Is filled, the filling openings and the Air outlet openings welded. Because of the nature of the Production-related connection of all compartments with each other If the load is not evenly distributed, it can occur that the medium from individual parts of the pack or compartments is ousted. To avoid this, the pack must be relative be filled to the brim. This in turn requires very thick foils and results in insufficient flexibility of the pack, how to adapt itself to the most diverse Body parts would be desirable.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Kompresse der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, daß sie flexibler in der Handhabbarkeit und einfacher herzustellen ist. Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Abteile in einer Grundfolie als taschenförmige Vertiefungen matrixartig angeordnet sind, die als Behältnisse für die Wärme oder Kälte speichernden Medien dienen, und daß die Vertiefungen jeweils einzeln von der Abdeckfolie rundum als Kammern verschlossen sind. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen definiert.The invention has for its object a compress of type mentioned in such a way that they more flexible in handling and easier to manufacture is. This object is achieved in that the Compartments in a base film as pocket-shaped depressions are arranged in a matrix, as containers for the heat or cold storing media, and that the Wells individually from the cover foil all around Chambers are closed. Advantageous further developments are defined in the subclaims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Kompresse hat den wesentlichen Vorteil, daß sie leicht an allen Körperpartien anpaßbar verformbar ist und sich einfach herstellen läßt. Legt man sie so an ein Körperteil an, daß die Vertiefungen wie Auflagenoppen am Körper anliegen, so wirkt die Luft in den Zwischenräumen als Wärme- oder Kältestau und schafft einen Wärmeübergang ohne Überhitzung bzw. Unterkühlung.The compress according to the invention has the essential advantage that it is easily deformable and adaptable to all parts of the body and is easy to manufacture. If you put them on like this Part of the body that the depressions like support nubs on Body, the air in the spaces acts as Heat or cold build-up and creates a heat transfer without Overheating or hypothermia.

Fig. 3 einen Ausschnitt aus Fig. 2 (vergrößert); . Fig. 3 shows a detail of Figure 2 (enlarged);
Fig. 4 eine Handumhüllung aus der Kompresse. Fig. 4 shows a hand wrap from the compress.
Die Kompresse weist zwei übereinanderliegende Folien 1 und 2 auf. Die Grundfolie 1 hat Vertiefungen 3, die von der Abdeckfolie 1 abgedeckt sind. Die Vertiefungen 3 sind matrixartig oder schachbrettartig angeordnet und haben gleichen Abstand voneinander. An den Rändern sind langlochartige Aussparungen 6 als Griffe vorgesehen, die ein leichtes Handhaben der Kompresse ermöglichen. Dies ist insbesondere bei Fango-Kompressen wichtig, die auf eine bestimmte Temperatur erhitzt werden, so daß sich Probleme beim Transport zum Patienten und bei der Anlage an bestimmte Körperpartien des Kranken ergeben können.The compress has two films 1 and 2 lying one above the other. The base film 1 has depressions 3 which are covered by the cover film 1 . The depressions 3 are arranged in a matrix or checkerboard fashion and have the same distance from one another. At the edges, slot-like recesses 6 are provided as handles, which allow the compress to be handled easily. This is particularly important in the case of fango compresses, which are heated to a certain temperature, so that problems can arise during transport to the patient and in contacting certain parts of the patient's body.
Die Herstellung der Grundfolie 1 erfolgt als Tiefziehteil über einem Tiefziehwerkzeug. Die Vertiefungen 3 sind dabei matrixförmig, d. h. in beiden Richtungen aufeinanderfolgend angeordnet. In die Vertiefungen 3 wird mittels eines Füllbehälters ein Medium, z. B. eine Fangomischung, eingebracht. Sodann wird die Abdeckfolie 2 aufgelegt und mit der Grundfolie 1 verschweißt, und zwar entlang der Stege 5. Diese müssen hierzu in der Hauptebene der Packung mindestens 1 mm breit sein, um eine gute mechanische Festigkeit und Dichte der Schweißflächen zu gewährleisten. Das Medium 4 ist somit in singuläre Kammern gefüllt, die voneinander rundum getrennt und gegeneinander dicht verschlossen sind. Ein Übertreten des Mediums unter Druck von einer Kammer in eine benachbarte Kammer ist nicht möglich. The base film 1 is produced as a deep-drawn part using a deep-drawing tool. The depressions 3 are matrix-shaped, that is to say arranged in succession in both directions. In the wells 3 , a medium, for. B. introduced a mango mixture. The cover film 2 is then placed on and welded to the base film 1 , specifically along the webs 5 . For this purpose, they must be at least 1 mm wide in the main plane of the packing in order to ensure good mechanical strength and density of the welding surfaces. The medium 4 is thus filled in singular chambers, which are separated from one another all around and are tightly sealed from one another. It is not possible for the medium to pass under pressure from one chamber into an adjacent chamber.
Wasser ist bei der Herstellung von Kühl-Kompressen das geeignete Medium und wird hierzu auf Gefriertemperatur gebracht. Man legt ggf. einfach die mit Wasser gefüllte Packung in eine Gefriertruhe.Water is that in the production of cooling compresses suitable medium and this is done at freezing temperature brought. If necessary, simply place the one filled with water Pack in a freezer.
Die Vertiefungen 3 haben rechteckige Form. Es sind auch quadratische, runde, sechs- oder achteckige Grundrisse denkbar. Der Querschnitt (Fig. 3) kann rechteckig, aber auch halbkreisförmig oder kreissegmentförmig sein, so daß sich kugelsegmentförmige Vertiefungen ergeben.The depressions 3 have a rectangular shape. Square, round, hexagonal or octagonal floor plans are also conceivable. The cross section ( Fig. 3) can be rectangular, but also semicircular or circular segment-shaped, so that there are spherical segment-shaped depressions.
Die Folien sind z. B. aus PVC mit einer Dicke von 0,10 bis 0,35 mm. Die Vertiefungen sind 5-15 mm tief und haben eine Stegbreite von 1-4 mm. Der rechteckförmige Grundriß der Vertiefung 3 hat z. B. die Maße 2 auf 4 cm. Oberhalb einer Fläche von 20 cm2 (also z. B. bei rechteckigen Vertiefungen 4 × 5 cm) dürfte die Flexibilität der Packung nicht mehr ausreichend sein.The foils are e.g. B. made of PVC with a thickness of 0.10 to 0.35 mm. The depressions are 5-15 mm deep and have a web width of 1-4 mm. The rectangular plan of the recess 3 has z. B. the dimensions 2 to 4 cm. Above an area of 20 cm 2 (e.g. for rectangular depressions 4 × 5 cm), the flexibility of the pack should no longer be sufficient.
Fig. 4 zeigt die Verwendung einer derartigen Kompresse zur Herstellung eines körperteilumhüllenden Behältnisses, nämlich eines Handschuhs 20, den - bei Füllung mit Fango - eine Person anlegen kann, um allseits eine Hand der gewünschten Wärmeeinwirkung auszusetzen. Dann kann man darin gymnastische Übungen machen. Dieser Einsatz der Kompresse wird durch ihre hohe Flexibilität möglich. Ebenso ist die Herstellung von Bein-, Becken-, Arm-, Kopf- und Oberkörperhüllen möglich. FIG. 4 shows the use of such a compress for the production of a container which envelops the body part, namely a glove 20 which - when filled with mud - a person can put on to expose one hand to the desired heat. Then you can do gymnastic exercises in it. This use of the compress is made possible by its high flexibility. The manufacture of leg, pelvis, arm, head and upper body covers is also possible.
