Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a holder for a thermotherapy device in which thermotherapy is performed by a heating element which generates heat by the action of outside air.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a thermotherapy device 3 as shown in FIG. 8 has been provided. This is composed of a hat-shaped container main body 2a having a lower surface opening formed by vacuum forming a thin sheet of synthetic resin, and a synthetic resin lid 2b attached so as to close the lower surface of the container main body 2a. 2-5c
A disk-shaped container 2 having a size of about m is formed, and the heating material 1 is placed in the container 2.
It is created by encapsulating. The container 2 is formed by a convex base portion 18a in which the heat generating material 1 is enclosed and a brim portion 18b protruding around the lower end of the convex base portion 18a. The heat generating material 1 is used as a material that causes a reaction to generate heat when moisture in the atmosphere acts or oxygen in the atmosphere acts, and is used, for example, in a chemical warmer or a disposable warmer. Any known material such as a powder containing iron powder as a main component and other liquids can be used. An opening is provided in the center of the lid 2b and a heat transfer film 16 such as an aluminum film is attached to the back side of the opening to close the opening, and a ceramic plate 17 (or a muzzle plate) is attached to the lower surface of the heat transfer film 16 at the opening. is stuck on. Further, an adhesive is applied to the lower surface of the collar portion 18b around the container 2, and a release paper 19 is attached to the lower surface of the container 2 to cover the adhesive.

As shown in FIG. 9, the thermotherapy device 3 has
A plurality of sheets are arranged on one sheet 4 so as to be prepared. That is, a thin sheet of synthetic resin forming the container body 1a and a thin sheet of synthetic resin forming the lid 1b are
A sheet of paper 4 as shown in FIG. 9B is created by pasting the release paper 19 on the entire lower surface of the thin sheet which is surface-bonded and which constitutes the lid 1b.
As shown in (a), a plurality of thermotherapy devices 3 are provided on the seat 4 along the outer periphery thereof by making circular cuts 20 leaving several small connection parts 20a.

In this case, the small connection portion 20a
The thermotherapy device 3 by the notch 20 so as to tear it off
Is separated from the sheet 4, the container 2 is pierced with a needle to make a hole, the release paper 19 is peeled off, and the thermotherapy device 3 is attached to the skin of the affected area with an adhesive. Then, the outside air acts from the hole of the container 2 to generate heat in the heat generating material 1, and the heat generation of the heat generating material 1 allows the affected area to be heat-treated. At this time, the far infrared rays generated when the ceramic plate 17 is heated by the heat generating material 1 allows heat to permeate into the body and enhance the thermotherapy effect. Further, when the thermotherapy device 3 is formed by using a grate plate instead of the ceramic plate 17, the thermotherapy effect can be enhanced by the moxibustion effect of the moxa.

[0005]

However, in using the thermotherapy device 3 as described above, one sheet of thermotherapy device 3 is taken out from the packaging container by removing the sheet 4 provided with a plurality of the moxibustion therapy device 3. After separating from the sheet 4, it is necessary to pierce the container 2 of the thermotherapy device 3 with a needle to make a hole, which is a problem in terms of usability.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a holder for a thermotherapy device which can enhance the usability of the thermotherapy device.

[0007]

In the holder for the thermotherapy device according to the present invention, a container 2 is provided with a heating material 1 which generates heat by the action of outside air.
The thermotherapy device 3 that is formed by enclosing the container 5 in the shape of a box having an open upper surface for accommodating the sheet 4 that is detachably provided along the outer periphery thereof, and the upper surface of the container 5. And a lid 6 that is detachably attached to the opening of the sheet 5. The bottom of the container 5 has a take-out hole 7 corresponding to the outer periphery of the thermotherapy device 3 of the seat 4 accommodated therein. Provided,
A pressing button 10 extending through an elastic piece 9 is provided in a through hole portion 8 formed by opening the lid body 6 at an upper position and above the take-out hole 7, and a needle 11 is provided on the lower surface of the pressing button 10. Is provided so as to project downward, and the pressing button 10 is pressed to bend the elastic piece 9 to bend toward the container 5 side, thereby making a hole in the upper surface of the thermotherapy device 3 with the needle 11 and the thermotherapy with the pressing button 10. It is characterized in that the container 3 is pushed out from the take-out hole 7.

In the present invention, a plurality of thermotherapy devices 3 are arranged on the seat 4 and a plurality of pushing holes 7 are arranged on the bottom surface of the container 5, and the lid 6 is pushed. The housing 5 is covered so as to be movable parallel to the arrangement direction of 7. And in this case, the positioning means 12 for positioning the lid body 6 with respect to the housing body 5 so that the pressing button 10 is located above the plurality of pushing holes 7 of the housing body 5 is provided with the housing body 5 and the lid body 5. It is better to provide it in No. 6.

[0009]

[Function] By pressing the pressing button 10 to bend it toward the container 5, the needle 11 makes a hole in the upper surface of the thermotherapy device 3 and the pressing button 10 pushes the thermotherapy device 3 to push it out from the take-out hole 7. As a result, the thermotherapy device 3 can be taken out from the holder, and at the same time, a hole can be formed in the container 2 of the thermotherapy device 3 to heat the heat generating material 1.
