Definitions
- the present invention is in the field of cryotherapy cabins.
- cryotherapy refers to medical, aesthetic or well-being techniques or procedures consisting of localized or generalized treatment of the body at low temperatures.
- This cold therapy uses a cold gas of carbon dioxide C0 2 or nitrogen N 2 type and allows, using cold:
- cryotherapy cabin In known manner, for a whole-body treatment in gas cryotherapy, that is to say for the part of the body going from the soles of the feet to the top of the shoulders, the person is placed in a closed cabin called “cryotherapy cabin” "Cryotherapy chamber”, “cryogenic chamber” or
- cryosauna This cryotherapy cabin is connected to a cold source generally consisting of an external nitrogen container under pressure.
- a cold source generally consisting of an external nitrogen container under pressure.
- the pressurized nitrogen is evaporated, then transferred and injected into the cryotherapy booth to cool to the treatment temperature.
- the person will then be in contact with the nitrogen gas, that is to say at temperatures between -70 ° C and 150 ° C, preferably - 110 ° C and - 150 ° C maximum for 3 min. This person contact / nitrogen gas is the treatment.
- liquid nitrogen is kept in a tank under a pressure of 4 to 7 Bars. Then the pressurized liquid nitrogen is evaporated on contact with a stream of air using a fan. In order for the evaporation to take place, the air stream must have a flow rate and a temperature sufficient for the transformation into gas, in contact with the liquid nitrogen under pressure, to occur. Therefore, in known devices, a large fan and a power 3 to 600 Watts is often necessary.
- the size of the power fans 3 to 600 Watts is often substantial, therefore a corresponding space must be available to receive it near the cryotherapy cabin.
- the power of these fans is such that its operating noise can be disturbing and stressful for the person being treated. Indeed, during treatment, the person can hear and hear deafening noise of the rotational movement of the fan blades generating the air stream, which can destabilize.
- the present existing devices require a consumption of 5 to 7 L of liquid nitrogen under pressure between 4 and 7 Bars to treat a person.
- this volume of liquid nitrogen under pressure in stock only about 65% of the liquid nitrogen under pressure will actually be evaporated, the other non-evaporated part constituting a pure loss.
- Existing devices are therefore not suitable to avoid nitrogen losses.
- the liquid nitrogen container is connected to an evaporation tank of a cryotherapy cabin by a piping device. In the container, the nitrogen is kept under pressure between 4 and 7 Bars and it is necessary to proceed to a degassing step to decrease the pressure before transferring the nitrogen to the evaporation tank. This leads to a loss of gas, so a significant economic cost.
- the means for conveying the evaporated nitrogen further increase the risk of possible nitrogen loss between the liquid nitrogen container and the treatment bath where the person is.
- document FR 2 981 268 discloses a gas cryotherapy device comprising
- At least one cryotherapy chamber At least one cryotherapy chamber
- At least one evaporation tank of said liquid in gas at least one intermediate tank connected to said storage tank and to the evaporation tank.
- This device which has at least three tanks, has several disadvantages.
- the three tanks, necessary for operation, are bulky and take up space.
- the apparatus of the prior art has a number of disadvantages which must be remedied. Indeed, it is necessary to find a cryotherapy cabin that is both compact, non-noisy and with a production yield of maximum cryogenic flow to optimize the overall operation of said cabin.
- the object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the state of the art by proposing a cryotherapy device comprising a treatment cabin. of a person, said cabin being connected to a system for producing and transporting a cryogenic fluid, said system comprising:
- At least one storage tank for a pressurized cryogenic liquid supplying, via means for diffusing said liquid, an evaporation duct opening through gas diffusion means into said treatment cabin.

- said storage tank comprises a cryogenic liquid maintained at a pressure of between 1 and 1.5 bar.
- This low pressure has the advantage of facilitating the storage but also the transfer of the liquid under pressure to the duct where the evaporation reaction will take place. Indeed, during the transfer of the liquid under pressure to said conduit, the opening of the storage tank causes degassing causing loss of liquid. The higher the tank pressure, the greater the losses when opening for transfer. Thus, in order to limit the losses when opening the storage tank for the transfer of the liquid, the pressure has been minimized to the maximum. It has been specifically found that a pressure of between 1 and 1.5 bars makes it possible to transfer and evaporate at least 90% of the cryogenic liquid within the conduit.

- the presence of the heating means upstream of the circulation means makes it possible to heat the cryogenic fluid upstream of the circulation means and thus to avoid the formation of possible frost on the blades of the fan that can block their operation.
- the heating means are put into operation and the cryogenic liquid supply under pressure is stopped to allow the fluid circulating in the device of warm up and de-ice the means of circulation.
- the system for producing and transporting the cryogenic fluid is a semi-closed circuit which limits the maximum loss of cryogenic fluid.
- the gas injected into the treatment booth is recycled.
- the recycled gas contributes to the evaporation reaction transforming the liquid under pressure at the outlet of the gas diffusion means intended to be used to treat the person.
- said transformation / evaporation conduit comprises means for receiving the cryogenic liquid under pressure intended to recover the cryogenic liquid under unvaporated pressure within said transformation conduit. / evaporation.

- the operation of the circulation means 10 will allow the circulation of the cryogenic fluid 5 in the direction indicated by the arrows of FIG. 1.
- the suction of the gas through said suction openings 13 will take place, notably thanks to the movement of the blades of the fan positioned at the junction between the recovery duct 12 and the evaporation duct 7.

- the pressure management within the device 1 is optimized to limit the losses during degassing.
- limiting the losses of cryogenic liquid when the tank 6 is opened makes it possible to increase the transformation efficiency of the cryogenic liquid into cryogenic gas.
- the cryogenic liquid can directly enter the evaporation duct 7 and evaporate directly in contact with the hot air stream exiting the fan.
- a high conversion efficiency due to an initial low cryogenic liquid pressure, has the advantage of minimizing the amount of liquid needed to treat a person 3. As a result, the cryogenic liquid losses during the treatment procedure of a person 3 by cryotherapy are minimized.
- the non-transformed cryogenic liquid / evaporated gas in the evaporation pipe 7 is recovered, upstream of the gas diffusion means 9, using means for receiving said liquid.
- reception means allow the recovery and possible recycling of the non-evaporated cryogenic liquid within the evaporation duct 7.
- said evaporation pipe 7 has a narrowing of these dimensions between its part associated with the storage tank 6 up to its opening part. on the gas diffusion means 9 in the treatment booth 2.
- This narrowing of the evaporation duct 7, extending from the storage tank 6 to the gas diffusion means 9, accentuates the conversion of the cryogenic liquid into gas cryogenic, that is to say, promotes the evaporation reaction, increases the efficiency of transformation of the liquid into gas and decreases the losses of said cryogenic liquid.
- the part of the evaporation duct 7, which opens onto the gas diffusion means 9 within the treatment booth is at least twice as small as its part associated with the storage tank 6, so that that the evaporation of the nitrogen is done very quickly to have a conversion efficiency of at least 90% of the liquid nitrogen gas opening in the treatment cabin.
