In the figure, 10 indicates a headband 10. The headband 10 has a thin strip shape as shown in FIG. 3 and is used by tying it to the head in a headband shape as shown in FIG. Be done. The headband 10 is made of a material having water permeability, such as cotton or hemp, which has a good water absorbing property and a soft touch. As the material having water permeability, non-woven fabric may be used in addition to cotton and linen.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the headband 10 has a bag portion 20 formed in the middle of its length and end portions 30 and 30 extending from the both ends of the bag portion 20 to the left and right respectively. And have. As shown in FIG. 3, the bag portion 20 has perforations 23 formed in parallel along the longitudinal direction and two perforations 21, 22 that are sewn together in the width direction at two locations near the center in the longitudinal direction. And are formed into a bag shape in a closed state. As shown in FIG. 2, the bag portion 20 may be formed long enough to reach the temples of the head. Further, the bag portion 20 may be formed in a long and thin cylindrical shape in the longitudinal direction of the headband 10, and the headband 10 may be formed in a string shape like a bandana twisted. On the contrary, the bag portion 20 may be formed of a cloth different from the headband 10 and sewn to a portion of the wide headband 10 that contacts the forehead. As described above, the band width of the headband 10 may be freely formed by changing the shape of the bag portion 20, and the band width may change on the way.

Then, as shown in FIG. 1, a water absorbent resin 40 is housed inside the bag portion 20 described above. The water-absorbent resin 40 is specifically in the form of pellets, and has high water-absorbency, high moisture-absorption / desorption property, excellent reusability, safety and hygiene, and is, for example, "Plawet G 140H (trademark). Manufactured by Mitsubishi Petrochemical Co., Ltd.) "is preferred.

As a result, the bag-shaped bag portion 20 having the water-absorbent resin 40 filled therein is formed at the center in the longitudinal direction. As described above, the bag portion 20 and the both end portions 30, 30 may be formed of the same material, but only the both end portions 30, 30 are made of another material having excellent elasticity such as rubber or vinyl. You may form.

Next, a method of using the headband 10 will be described. First, the headband 10 is immersed in water. Since the headband 10 is formed of a water-permeable cloth, moisture easily reaches the water-absorbent resin 40 in the bag portion 20, and the water-absorbent resin 40 absorbs the moisture, as shown in FIG. In the bag portion 20, it expands almost 20 times.

Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the bag portion 20 that has absorbed water and expanded is wound around the upper part of the head so that the bag part 20 horizontally contacts the forehead of the human head, and the end portion 30, Tie 30 pieces together near the back of the head and fix. As a result, heat is transferred from the forehead to the bag portion 20, and the heat causes the water contained in the water absorbent resin 40 in the bag portion 20 to evaporate. At that time, when the water evaporates, the heat of vaporization absorbs the heat, so that the temperature of the bag portion 20 can be lowered, and as long as the water-absorbent resin 40 contains the water, the temperature of the forehead is prolonged for a long time. Can be reduced and cooled.

Although the cooling duration varies depending on the amount of moisture to be absorbed, it is usually about 24 hours. In addition, since the cooling material used is water, there is no toxicity and the place of use is not limited, so it can be used safely and easily. Further, in order to increase the cooling effect, the water absorbent resin 40 may be used after being absorbed in water and then cooled in a refrigerator or frozen. As a result, a large cooling effect can be obtained.

As described above, the headband 10 can be used by being wrapped around the head, but the use site is not limited to the head when a headache occurs, and muscle headache and It can be used locally by wrapping it around any place of the body such as an inflamed foot or arm.

Yes, it can also be used to cool the head as a means of increasing concentration, such as for studying for exams or qualifying tests.

Further, in the headband 10, after the water is evaporated, if the water is absorbed again in the water, the water absorbent resin 40 can absorb the water any number of times. It can be used repeatedly. After use, if it becomes dirty with sweat, you can wash it with a neutral detergent, rinse it well, soak it in cold water, and dry it with a dry towel. It can be used as new.

When the headband 10 is not used, no harmful substances are used, so that the headband 10 can be stored together with food in a refrigerator or the like. In the present example, the water absorbent resin 40 in the bag portion 20 was formed with the headband 10 having a cooling effect by absorbing water, but the liquid to be absorbed was water or alcohol to which a fragrance was added. Volatile liquids such as

As a result, a part of the fragrance can be soaked in the water-absorbent resin 40. By using the fragrance, in addition to the cooling effect by evaporation of the liquid, the fragrance from the fragrance can be diffused into the air. , The scent has not only a physiological medicinal effect such as relieving fatigue, but also a psychological effect that gives comfort and uplifting feeling.

As the fragrance, for example, menthol can be used. The menthol is volatile, has an aromatic and spicy taste, has a refreshing feeling, and is expected to have analgesic effect, antipruritic effect, antiseptic bactericidal effect and the like. Therefore, when menthol is used as a fragrance, menthol is volatilized, and a refreshing feeling and an analgesic effect can be expected.

Also, camphor, for example, can be used as the fragrance. This camphor may be used alone or in combination with the menthol described above. The above camphor not only has a deodorizing effect, but also stimulates the cerebral motor cortex, respiratory center, and vasomotor center, and has an action of increasing the contractile force of the heart by the oxidative metabolites in the body. The excitement effect of respiratory circulation can be expected.

Therefore, when camphor is used as a fragrance, the camphor is volatilized, and an exciting effect can be particularly expected. Furthermore, for example, phytoncide can be used as a fragrance. Phytoncide is a volatile substance produced by trees, especially conifers, and its bactericidal activity is one of the effects of forest bathing.

Therefore, by using phytoncide as a fragrance, phytoncide is volatilized, and the effect of a forest bath can be particularly expected. On the other hand, as a liquid to be absorbed by the water-absorbent resin 40 in the bag portion 20, instead of water, by using a chemical liquid that suppresses muscle inflammation, muscle pain due to fatigue, etc. , Can be held.

Thus, even in a region where the movement of the thigh or the upper arm is strong, the bag 20 is applied to the surface of the affected part and the end portions 30, 30 are tied together to fix the drug solution to the affected part.
