Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device, in particular for administering full or hip baths, and the use thereof.
  • the bath medium cools prematurely. This is particularly important for body-shaped tubs, because this appearance also affects the sides. In particular, so-called “overheating baths” are then practically no longer feasible because the bath medium representing a heat medium and heat reservoir is too small on many parts of the body, especially in the lumbar and buttocks area.
  • a tub interior that is too small in size can also be perceived as a disadvantage in the case of tall and overweight people, which in some cases can even cause anxiety. It is easy to imagine that the anxiety states mentioned can occur in these cases, especially when it is considered that the bathing temperatures can be up to 42 ° C, for example, and that the correspondingly shaped, previously known tubs allow deep immersion, so that in Abdominal and chest areas become more noticeable due to the pressure exerted by the medium.
  • Another disadvantage is that there is no longer enough bath medium available between the tub surface and the body.
  • a generic device for administering full or seated peloid baths according to DE 30 46 628 C2 and EP 98 390 B1, which corresponds to the preamble of claim 1, has already become known, in which a film is used to is separable from a film subspace.
  • This device is suitable for patients of various sizes and weights.
  • the proportion of bath fluid that comes into contact with the patient's body and is lost through pouring away after the end of therapy only makes up a small fraction of the total volume of peloid bath liquid contained in the bath, since the peloid bath liquid located below the separating film and also serving as a heating medium remains in the tub and can also be used for other patients and bathers.
  • the invention further relates to the use of such a device.
  • the object is achieved with respect to the device by the features specified in claim 1 and with regard to use in accordance with the features specified in claim 29.
  • Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.
  • a tub sub-space can be formed which can be filled with a heating medium.
  • there is at least one convection-inhibiting layer or one convection-inhibiting chamber which is at least partially filled and which, even in the case of aqueous solutions, enables an at least largely conductive heat transfer also in the direction of the bath partition into the actual bath room.
  • mushy media such as For example, peat or peloid as a heat reservoir can no longer be used.
  • granular or particulate materials are used for this purpose, which are preferably buoyant.
  • these particle-shaped to granular filling elements rest against the partition of the body wall from below and largely prevent heat convection and thus only enable heat conduction.
  • the bath medium can otherwise be heated up by a heating and circulating process between two bath cycles. Since, moreover, these, in particular, particulate to granular filling elements are interchangeable, largely convective heat transfer can also be achieved at any time with the device according to the invention.
  • a bathing device in particular for peloid baths, is also known from DE-U 8 816 075 in which a trough-shaped container with a two-layer film arranged therein is used.
  • the medium to be accommodated in the bottom part of the tub does not necessarily have to consist of a peloid liquid or water, but any substance can be selected, i.e. also in the form of solid particles, which are suitable for sinking the patient in such a way that the film largely covers him encloses.
  • solid particles which are not described in more detail, serve here only as an "alternative medium" to peloid fluid or water.
  • solid particles alone tend to impair the desired purpose, namely by always avoiding them sufficiently by the weight of a patient. Therefore, in such an embodiment, the flexibility to achieve a shape adaptation to the respective body of the bather or patient is even deteriorated compared to the prior art.
  • the partition is formed from a separating film in a manner known per se. Because here too, the proportion of bathing liquid that comes into contact with a patient's body is comparatively small and thus helps to reduce costs.
  • the film naturally offers an optimal adaptation to different ones Body sizes and body weights, which offers additional advantages to a bathtub comprising a fixed tub wall, in particular a shaped body tub. At the same time, however, this additionally prevents a patient from getting tangled with the legs in the separating film, for example.
  • the release film does not fit snugly against the body due to the medium pressure in the film subspace and, depending on the depth of sinking in and the size of the patient, virtually wraps and encloses it.
  • the device according to the invention has a shape adaptation chamber in a preferred embodiment.
  • This is filled with a moldable medium, which is also z. B. has particle or granular form.
  • this adaptable chamber can now be optimally adapted to the body shape of the patient or bathers via the separating film, since the particle or granule-like filling in the adaptable chamber yields accordingly.
  • the pressure in the adaptable chamber can then be reduced compared to the ambient pressure.
  • the particle or granulate-like filling virtually solidifies and compresses, with the result that the shape that is optimally adapted to the body shape is fixed and retained as a lying surface.
  • the distance between the release film and the body is also increased, so that a sufficient distance of at least a few centimeters, usually at least 4 cm, is formed between the top of the film and the patient's body, via which sufficient bathing liquid penetrate directly to the body can.
  • the improved adaptability creates advantages, among other things. also for above average large and heavy or even above average small and light people.
  • the particle or granule-like filling also serves as a heat storage medium which can be heated to a desired level between the individual treatment phases or can be kept at a certain temperature or heated up to this during the bathing process.
  • a gaseous, liquid and / or slurry-like medium can preferably flow through pumps through the intermediate distances formed with the particle- or granule-like filling, even at reduced pressure.
  • a conductive heat transfer from the lower filling into the bath liquid above the separating film but also a convective heat transfer via the film into the bath medium.
  • parts of the body could be spared from such a heat transfer, for example by inserting an insulating intermediate layer in the separating film above or below or between the separating film and the shape-adapting chamber.
  • An improvement of the effect according to the invention can also be achieved by additionally providing at least one compensation chamber.
  • This is preferably provided below the adaptable chamber in the tub. It can be filled with a suitable medium, such as gas, air or water, and is used for height compensation according to the size and body weight of a bather. This also makes it easier to get in and out of the tub.
  • At least one compensation chamber can be expanded to such an extent that the bath liquid of the bulged separating film can be emptied.
  • the head shell itself can be hardly or not adaptable to shape. If the drainage for the bathing liquid is provided there, problem-free emptying is possible after the bath has been completed.
  • the device comprises a trough 1, on which a separating film 3 can be provided or anchored in a suitable manner to form a film upper chamber 5 and a film lower chamber 7 separated therefrom.
  • the separating film extends beyond the upper circumferential edge of the tub and is interchangeably fastened there, for example via a sealing frame 9.
  • the separating film 3 which represents a dividing wall, can consist, for example, of very elastic material, a material film, rubber or other elastomeric materials and can be clamped to the tub in a suitable manner.
  • this granular to particulate filling 13 is provided directly in the trough below the separating film 3.
  • one or more compensation chambers 15 can be provided. In the exemplary embodiment shown, these can be individually adjusted so that a desired optimal lying area can be achieved for a bather, as is shown, for example, in FIG.
  • three compensation chambers 15 are provided in the longitudinal direction at least in the longitudinal direction, a compensation chamber for increased support of the foot area extending approximately into the knee area, followed by a lower compensation chamber 15 for supporting the buttocks to the back area and possibly in the shoulder area , and that a comparatively high compensation chamber 15 is provided for the support of the head region.
  • compensation chambers 15 are elastic and can, for. B. separately via pressure lines 16 so that they are inflated or expanded so that an optimal altitude and adaptation to the size and weight of a patient is achieved.
  • all compensation chambers 15 can also be enlarged in such a way that problem-free boarding and alighting is possible by the shape-adaptable layer or chamber 11 with the elastic film as required for example, up to almost the top edge of the tub 1.
  • the compensation chambers 15 can also be filled beyond the upper tub edge. This serves to drain the bath medium.
  • a non-inflatable, possibly rather rigid or stiffened, i.e. fixed head shell 17 may be provided, which remains more or less in its position shown in FIG. 1 even when the separating film 3 is otherwise raised up to above the tub rim. If there is an outlet line 19 at the lowest point of the head shell 17, which is otherwise closed during the bathing process by a valve (not shown in any more detail), the bathing water can run off easily via the head shell 17 and the subsequent outlet line 19. The raised release film protruding upwards can be rinsed off, so that the rinsing water can also run off over it.
  • the form-adaptable layer or chamber 11 could actually be designed as a self-contained chamber provided with its own covering or could be formed from a plurality of chambers formed in this way with its own covering, similar to the equalizing chambers 15.
  • the film sub-space then referring to the form-adaptable chambers 11 and, if appropriate, further provided compensation chambers 15 relates.
  • the chambers provided with their own protective covering would then have to be removed or at least slightly raised in order to be able to rinse out the outer walls of the chambers 11 and 15 and the tub interior as a whole.
  • the lower equalizing chambers 15 could also not be designed as self-contained chambers, but could also be realized by a film which was sealed against the remaining part of the lower trough bottom and the trough side walls.
  • FIG. 1 also schematically indicates that the shape-adaptable layer or chamber 11 is connected to a suction and inflow opening 25 for adapting the position and fixing the separating film 3.
  • further circuit lines 27 can be provided, via which, for example, air, gas, liquid or pasty medium can be circulated and pumped through the adaptable layer / chamber 11, by means of a circulating pump 29 or a fan 31
  • Heat and / or cold exchanger 33 is provided in order to use this to specifically heat or cool the filling 13, which is a heat medium, between the treatment phases or during the bathing treatment.
  • branch lines can also be arranged in the heat circuit 33, which end specifically at different locations below the separating film in the shape-adaptable layer or chamber 11, in order here to possibly achieve even more specific individual overheating or temperature reductions in other areas. By using insulation mats etc., certain areas can be excluded from overheating.
  • the bathers can also be provided with directional flow and guide devices 35 in order to distribute the medium flow better.
  • one or more measuring probes 37 can also be provided in the interior of the adaptable layer 11, as also in the film upper space 5.
  • a circuit breaker or vibrator 39 can also be provided in the circuit line 27, by means of which vibration-like pressure surges can be generated in the form-adaptable layer 11, which can propagate into the film upper space into the bath liquid and can contribute to increasing the bathing pleasure.
  • a compensating vessel 36 can also be connected to the film subspace 7.
  • the elastic separating film 3 Before climbing onto the device explained with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the elastic separating film 3 can be tensioned only slightly sagging at the upper edge of the tub, as shown in FIG. 2. Before climbing, the corresponding compensation chambers 15 are expanded via the aforementioned individually controllable pressure lines 16 in such a way that the shape-adaptable layer 11 is raised approximately to the underside of the separating film 3 in order to facilitate boarding.
  • an appropriate altitude can be preset by depressurizing the compensation chambers 15, as is illustrated in FIG. 3. Before or after, the filling with bathing water in the film upper room 5 can begin.
  • the pressure in the adaptable layer or chamber 11 can then be reduced to below the ambient pressure as required. At least from a certain limit pressure, a solidification and fixation of the granules or the particles located in the shape-adaptable layer or chamber 11 or the particles located there are ensured, so that a solid base, which is perceived as pleasant, can be achieved, which is optimally matched to the body shape of the individual patient is.
  • the limit points of mobility can be exceeded more easily and painlessly.
  • passive movements can be carried out on the bathing person in that, for example, when the shape-adaptable layer is solidified, the compensation chambers 15 are deliberately expanded or released manually or automatically in a controlled manner.
