Envelope for local cooling, especially for parts of the human body.

It is known to apply cold compresses to the relevant parts of the body, e.g. the head, the neck, the heart and the fallopian tube in order to calm down, relieve pain and inhibit inflammation. For this purpose, ice packs, which are used in the form of a round ice cream or an elongated bag, are used, among other things. The disadvantage is the laborious and time-consuming filling of previously crushed pieces of ice through the relatively narrow filling opening, which then has to be tightly closed, as well as the need to fix the ice pouch at the specific body part, including additional bandages and other fasteners, e.g. Towel or napkin oenöti: 't be. In addition, an ice pack should be the

.u'aut are not in direct contact, but with intervening to be laid on a dry 'i'uch,

It is also in a hurry that such ice packs are made of rubber that must be treated with care, e.g. powdered, because it is easily brittle.

The fire has set itself the task of addressing these disadvantages by using an envelope for local cooling, in particular of human body parts, to avoid that simply in the Application is, can be put into the operating state very easily and simply, gives off cold for a long time and moreover can be kept clean very easily »

According to the innovation, this task is solved by a ribbon-like, Flexible structure of the desired length and width with a number of neo-lying compartments in which flat cold storage bags are inserted in the frozen or deep-frozen state. The areas between the pockets are effective as joints.

Small, flat cold storage bags are used in particular, which are filled with water or a gel-like liquid that has been frozen by freezing, e.g. in the freezer compartment of a -Iöihischrankes or store cold by strong cooling and release slowly in use.

Such small cold storage bags can be frozen and kept ready in large numbers. Breaking into all or individual compartments of the ribbon-like, flexible structure can be done easily and very quickly, so that such a cold envelope can be quickly prepared and quickly put on «, This has the advantage use the storage bags, which are below freezing point Lint, r can be chilled during the brief preparation of the envelope to put on or turn down the envelope lose practically no cold, so that the ivühlffekt one such an envelope is very good and lasts for a long time.

jJazu koiüiat that the ribbon-like flexible structure is expedient on one or oeicien bands and ends of fastening means, e.g. on the one inde a jogging tape and at the other end at least one has eyelet or straps to tie it together so that it can be quickly attached to the relevant parts of the body and there is little risk of the envelope snapping up.

The band-like structure with the compartments is preferably made of a plastic, the whole being made of can consist of a blank, from which the compartments are folded or folded, e.g. by gluing or welding are geo-formed.

lim o with certain applications a freezing effect on the. ^H aut to avoid at least one side of the can bandarti- <· s structure be provided wholly or partially with a material support.

In the drawing is an exemplary embodiment of the innovation a Xühlkrawatte shown. Show it

The cooling tie, which is preferably designed for cooling the neck and extremities, consists of a plastic band 1, which merges into rfindebänder 2 at both ends = by turning over around the lower hand up and through Yerüjchv.eißen along the joint-like standing edges 3 » are adjacent flat compartments 4 that are open at the top and from above by folding the flap 5 can be closed. To prepare the cooling tie for use are in the compartments, as in ig. 1 is shown, small shallow frozen D or subcooled cold storage bag 6 inserted.

In this state, the cooling tie is then, for example, around the

Neck looped and secured by tying the straps 2 together
