Abstract
Ein von Hand zu haltender kompakter Kältetherapieapparat für exakt dosierbare Kälteanwendung. Damit lassen sich reproduzierbare therapeutische Ergebnisse am Hautorgan erzielen. Das erschließt neue dermatologisch wichtige Indikationsgebiete.A compact cold therapy device to be held by hand for precisely metered cold application. This enables reproducible therapeutic results to be achieved on the skin organ. This opens up new dermatologically important areas of indication.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Handapparat zur Erzeugung von Kälte für die Therapie in der Medizin und die Kosmetik.The invention relates to a handset for generating cold for the Therapy in medicine and cosmetics.
Es ist bekannt, daß Kälte für die therapeutische und für die kosmetische Behandlung der Haut verwendet wird. Immer wird mit der applizierten Kälte eine bestimmte Hautreaktion erzeugt, die bei entsprechenden Indikationen einen therapeutischen Effekt bewirken soll.It is known that cold for the therapeutic and for the cosmetic Skin treatment is used. Always with the applied Cold creates a certain skin reaction, which when appropriate Indications should have a therapeutic effect.
Bestimmte Indikationen erfordern eine gezielte Kälteapplikation, damit einerseits keine Schädigung durch Erfrierung des gesunden Gewebes erfolgt aber andererseits einen zufriedenstellender therapeutischen Effekt ermöglicht wird.Certain indications require a targeted cold application, so on the one hand, no damage caused by freezing of the healthy tissue on the other hand, there is a satisfactory therapeutic effect is made possible.
Bislang wurden hier für die Kälteapplikation Apparate verwendet, die nach dem "Thomsenprinzip" abgekühlte Applikatoren auf die entsprechende Hautzone aufsetzen.So far, devices have been used here for the cold application Applicators cooled to the "Thomsen principle" on the put on the appropriate skin zone.
Der hohe Verbrauch an Kältemittel und die kostspielige Anschaffung und Unterhaltung dieser Apparaturen hat nur eine zögernde Verbreitung der bewährten Kältetherapie bewirkt.The high consumption of refrigerant and the expensive purchase and Maintenance of these devices has been slow to spread proven cold therapy.
Mit der DE 39 06 539 A1 ist eine Vorrichtung zum Beladen von saugfähigen Tampons oder dergleichen mit Trockeneis zur Behandlung von Indikationen der Haut beschrieben. Aus einer begrenzt zur Verfügung stehenden Menge CO2 wird hier Trockeneis produziert.DE 39 06 539 A1 describes a device for loading absorbent tampons or the like with dry ice for treating indications of the skin. Dry ice is produced here from a limited amount of CO 2 .
Punktuelle Kälteapplikation auf die Haut ist hier aber nicht vorgesehen und eine individuelle gezielte Therapie ist nicht möglich, da die Temperatur nicht einstellbar ist.Selective cold application to the skin is not provided here and an individual targeted therapy is not possible because the Temperature is not adjustable.
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, die sowohl einen geringeren und einfachen apparativen Aufbau hat wie auch eine gezielte Kältetherapie ermöglicht. The object of the present invention is to provide a device create both a lesser and simple apparatus structure has also made targeted cold therapy possible.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Aus- und Weiterbildungen sind in Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.This object is achieved by a device with the features of claim 1. Advantageous training and further education are in Subclaims marked.
Neben nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung erläuterten Vorteilen, weist die Erfindung folgende wesentliche Vorteile auf: Zum einen wird der tatsächliche Bedarf an flüssigen Kühlmedien durch den speziellen Wärmetauscher dieser Vorrichtung in die Nähe des theoretischen Kühlmediumbedarfs gebracht und zum anderen läßt sich die vorliegende Erfindung für das Indikationsgebiet der Kryotherapie verwenden, um damit vorausbestimmbare pathologische Kältereaktionen am Hautorgan in Form der Erfrierungen 1. Grades, 2. Grades oder 3. Grades zu erzeugen.In addition to the advantages explained below with reference to the drawing, the invention has the following essential advantages: on the one hand, the actual need for liquid cooling media is brought close to the theoretical cooling medium requirement by the special heat exchanger of this device, and on the other hand, the present invention can be used for the indication area of Use cryotherapy to prevent pathological cold reactions on the skin organ in the form of frostbite 1 . Degrees, 2nd degree or 3rd degree.
Nachstehend wird die Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert: Die kleine CO2-Kapsel ist gefüllt mit flüssiger Kohlensäure. Sie ist angeschraubt an ein Dosierventil, welches in Verbindung steht mit einem Wärmetauscher, der damit steuerbar nach Bedarf mit flüssigem CO2 beaufschlagt werden kann und einen metallisch und thermisch verbundenen Applikator abkühlt.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing: The small CO 2 capsule is filled with liquid carbonic acid. It is screwed onto a metering valve, which is connected to a heat exchanger, which can be charged with liquid CO 2 in a controllable manner as required and cools a metallically and thermally connected applicator.
Besonders günstig ist es nun, daß die Vorrichtung einen elektronischen Zeitgeber hat, der einen elektromagnetisch betreibbaren Abstandshalter ansteuern kann. Der Abstandshalter ermöglicht das Heranführen der Vorrichtung mit den Applikatoren zum Hautkontakt und nach beendeter Einwirkzeit das Wegdrücken des Applikators von der Haut.It is particularly favorable that the device has an electronic Has a timer that has an electromagnetically operated spacer can control. The spacer enables the Device with the applicators for skin contact and after the end The applicator is pressed away from the skin.
Eine vorteilshafte Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist des weiteren die Anordnung eines Temperaturfühlers am Applikator, der mit einer Digitalanzeige in Verbindung steht.An advantageous embodiment of the invention is furthermore the Arrangement of a temperature sensor on the applicator with a Digital display communicates.
Zur Realisierung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es besonders günstig, daß mittels den der Temperatur am Applikator entsprechenden Signalen des Temperaturfühlers das Dosierventil ansteuerbar und die Menge des durch das Dosierventil fließenden flüssigen CO2 dabei so steuerbar ist, daß die Temperatur des Applikators Werte zwischen einem voreinstellbaren Temperaturmaximum und Temperaturminimum annimmt.To implement the present invention, it is particularly favorable that the metering valve can be controlled by means of the signals of the temperature sensor corresponding to the temperature at the applicator and the amount of liquid CO 2 flowing through the metering valve can be controlled so that the temperature of the applicator has values between a presettable temperature maximum and assumes minimum temperature.
Eine weitere Ausstattung der Erfindung ist die Einrichtung eines elektronischen Zeitgebers mit dem Einwirkzeiten eingestellt werden können, deren Beginn und Ende durch ein optisches oder/und akustisches Signal anzeigbar ist.Another feature of the invention is the establishment of a electronic timer with which exposure times can be set, the Start and end by an optical and / or acoustic signal can be displayed.
Die Höhe des Auflagedrucks des Applikators an der Haut bestimmt die Menge der applizierten Kälte in das Hautorgan mit. Eine einstellbare Höhenarretierung für den Stützbügel am Applikator für den veränderbaren Auflagedruck ist vorgesehen.The level of the contact pressure of the applicator on the skin is determined the amount of cold applied to the skin organ. An adjustable Height lock for the support bracket on the applicator for the changeable contact pressure is provided.
Insbesondere bei einer gewebeschonenden Kryobehandlung im kosmetischen Bereich ist eine exakte Positionierung des Applikators zur behandelnden Hautstelle erforderlich.Especially with a tissue-friendly cryotherapy in cosmetic area is an exact positioning of the applicator for treating skin area required.
Eine weitere Ausstattung der Erfindung besteht darin, daß der Stützbügel mit einer Farbmarkierungsvorrichtung zum Markieren der Haut versehen ist, um bei der Vorbereitung der Behandlung den Applikator an der zu behandelnden Hautstelle exakt justieren zu können.Another feature of the invention is that the support bracket provided with a color marking device for marking the skin is in order to prepare the applicator for treatment to be able to adjust the treating skin area exactly.
