Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a heating acupuncture medicine for the purpose of heating medicines, such as so-called poultices, to enhance their therapeutic effects.

Acupuncture medicines include cream-like chemicals applied to fabrics, or those pre-smeared onto fabrics, and are mainly used for anti-inflammatory purposes, but if this acupuncture medicine is heated, it also has a warm compress effect. It can enhance the therapeutic effect. Conventionally, there have been drugs that contain ingredients such as capsaicinoid and nonylic acid vanylamide to stimulate the skin and give a warming sensation, but they do not actually warm the skin. The effect was hardly as expected.

The present invention solves the above problems and provides a -1D drug in which the drug is heated by heat generated by oxidation of iron powder.

That is, in the present invention, a paste-like drug is applied to the back side,
A heating element in which a pocket is provided on the surface of a base sort that is at least partially water permeable, and a mixture mainly composed of iron powder and metal acid salt is filled in a breathable and water permeable bag. This is a heating adhesive that removably accommodates the medicine and supplies water contained in the medicine to the heating element through the base sheet.

According to the present invention, the iron powder generates heat due to oxidation in the presence of the air supplied into the pocket, the moisture in the drug, and the metal salt, and the heat warms the drug. can enhance the therapeutic effect of

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, a paste-like skin agent 2 is applied to the back surface of a nonwoven fabric or other water-permeable base/-1-1. Anti-inflammatory agents are used in so-called acupuncture medicines, but the anti-inflammatory agent is not limited to this, and any medicine containing water such as ointment may be used. A pocket 3 is provided on the soil surface of this base sheet 1. In the case of the embodiment, this pocket 3 is formed by overlapping coverns 1 and 5 made of breathable material with a water-impermeable sheet 4 such as polyethylene material 4 pasted on a part of the back side on the base sheet 1, and placing them in the center. The part and both edges are sealed by heat sealing,
An example is shown in which a pair of pockets 3 having openings 3a at both ends are formed. The base sheet 1 is preferably a laminate of a synthetic fiber nonwoven fabric and a perforated polyethylene sheet in order to obtain appropriate strength and heat sealability.

According to the above structure, a pair of pockets 3, 3 having openings 3a, 3a at both ends are formed on the surface of the cover sheet 10. Although the position of the opening 3a and the number of pockets are not necessarily limited, by providing the opening 3a at both ends, it is easy to insert the heating element H, which will be described later, and it is possible to This is convenient when using it separately. As shown in Fig. 3, the pocket 3 is made by overlapping two cover sheets 5, 5 on the surface of the base sheet 1 with the center as a boundary, and heat sealing the four circumferences to form an opening 3a in the center.

3a may be formed. In this case as well, a water-impermeable sheet is inserted in the pocket 3 so as to cover a part of the inner surface of the cover sheet 5, as in the previous example. In any of the above embodiments, water in the drug 2 is supplied into the pocket 3 through the base sheet N4 and its sheet surface, and at least a portion of the base sheet N4 needs to be water permeable. A part of the notebook surface may be covered if necessary to adjust the amount of water supplied. The water flow area is the area for the medicine, heating element H.
It should be set according to the heat generation temperature. The temperature and duration of heat generated by the heating element H are determined by the amount of air supplied. Air is supplied into the pocket 3 through the opening 3a.
In addition to being supplied through the cover sheet 5 which is not covered with the water-impermeable sheet 4. When the cover sheet 5 is made of the same material as the base sheet 1, air flows in from the entire surface of the notebook. Alternatively, an air-impermeable sheet may be used and appropriate air supply holes may be provided in this sheet. After storing the heating element H in the pocket 3, its opening 3a
Ideally, air is supplied into the pocket 3 exclusively through the air supply hole, and in actual use, there is no need to strictly set the air supply amount. However, it is preferable to trap as much of the generated vapor as possible within the pocket in order to maintain the effectiveness of the drug. The number of pockets 3 should be determined depending on the size of the water permeable sheet 1. 2 or more for items with a certain amount of area.
By dividing the heating element H into two parts, the mixture sealed in the bag of the heating element H can be uniformly distributed over the surface of the water-permeable sheet 1. The heating element H is constructed by filling a breathable, water-permeable bag 6 with a mixture 7 mainly composed of iron powder and metal acid salts and sealing the bag. A water absorbent and other additives may be added to the mixture 7.

The iron powder used is not only the pure reduced iron used in 1/i conventional chemical ironing, but also sufficiently pulverized shavings of cast iron, pig iron, etc. that contain carbon in the iron. In the case of pure iron, it is necessary to add charcoal powder, but if the iron contains 3 to 4 parts of carbon, there is no need to add charcoal powder again. Moreover, pig iron powder is a solid solution system with carbon, which is advantageous in terms of the utilization of iron. When charcoal powder is added to iron powder, the oxidation reaction of the iron often ends only on the surface, leaving the inside unreacted. The particle size of the powder is not particularly limited, but a particle size of 100 to 400 granules is sufficient. Suitable salts to be mixed with iron include mineral salts of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, aluminum, and iron; alkali metal hydrochlorides and nitrates are particularly preferred; dilute mineral acids and organic acids are also effective. It is. The proportion of these metal salts used alone or in combination, or the ratio of iron powder to
It ranges from 1 to 10 inches. Specific examples of metal acid salts include potassium chloride, sodium chloride, potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, barium chloride, magnesium sulfate, magnesylanosulfate sulfate, ferric sulfate, aluminum chloride, citric acid, Examples include malic acid. The material of the bag 6 is not limited as long as it is a combination of breathable material and water absorbent notebook, but it must be strong enough to be used as a storage bag for iron powder, etc. Also, heat-sealable materials are advantageous from a processing standpoint. This material is processed into a bag having a predetermined shape that matches the shape of the pocket 3, and an appropriate amount of the mixture 7 is filled into the bag 6.

When the heating element is not in use, it is stored in an airtight bag (not shown).

In the embodiment, the heating element H is taken out from the airtight bag, placed in the pocket 3 provided in the base fabric 1 of the acupuncture medicine, and the medicine 20 is tied to the affected part of the human body as usual. As a result, the drug 2 penetrates the skin and heals the affected area, and the moisture contained in the drug 2 penetrates into the bag 6 of the heating element H through the base sheet 1, and the cover sheet 5 of the pocket 3
Alternatively, air is supplied into the bag 6 of the heating element H through the opening 3a, and the oxidation reaction of the iron powder in the bag 6 starts to generate heat. This heat is transferred to the medicine 2 through the base sheet 1, and the action of the heated medicine 2 increases the therapeutic effect on the affected area. Heat generation duration (d) is determined by the amount of water supplied when the amount of supplied air is constant, so heating is continued until the entire amount of water contained in the drug evaporates.

As described above, the present invention uses a sheet that is at least partially water-permeable for the base of the adhesive (1), a pocket is integrally provided in this sheet, and an air-permeable bag inside the pocket is made of iron. Since the heating element filled with a mixture mainly composed of powder and metal salts is inserted, there is no need to knead or shake the heating element, and the heating element can be inserted into the drug by simply inserting it into the pocket. It is possible to generate heat by effectively utilizing the contained moisture and body temperature, and it is possible to maintain fever during the effective period of the drug and increase its therapeutic effect. As the heating element is minimal, only iron powder and metal acid salts are required.
It has a small capacity1, so it is not bulky and can be made thin, and it can be attached freely to the desired location because it fits the body.
I can do it. Moreover, since the heating element is removable, it can be heated when and for the required amount of time, and even if the fever stops during the drug's validity period, it can be replaced with a new heating element to restart the fever. It is effective.
