Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a medical antipyretic device comprising a pillow in the form of a sealed bag and a water cooler for supplying cold water to the pillow.

In particular, it is constructed so that cold water can be supplied to the pillow over a long period of time, and ice can be changed without moving the patient's head.

Conventionally, ice pillows have been used to cool the patient's head by directly storing ice therein to reduce fever. It has a very poor feel and causes discomfort to the patient, and it is also inconvenient that the patient has to move his or her head each time the ice-free water is replaced, causing pain to the patient.

Book there! The above-mentioned inconveniences have been resolved, and the embodiment of the present application will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.The apparatus of the present application includes a water supply cooler A and a flexible hose (IL (
The box body (2) constituting the water cooler A has a double-walled surface (aha, with a heat insulating material (a) in between. 3) Insulating wall filled with c, I (A lid (5) that seals the box is hinged (6) to the top of a horizontally long box body (4) with an open top made of 31K.

(6) This box body (2) is attached so that it can be opened and closed from K.
The inside is divided into left and right by a partition wall (8) installed near the left side wall, and the right chamber, which has a large capacity, is used as a cooling chamber (9).
The left chamber, where other forces are narrow, is further divided by the Vh wall (11), and one of the forces is formed in the power chamber (111), and the other force is formed in the ice receiving chamber az. A water inlet joint (13) that leads to the guide, a thermometer I that displays the water temperature in the ice receiving chamber AZ to the outside, and a drain pipe Q that discharges the water in the water receiving chamber ←2 to the outside are installed. .

Said drain pipe Q! 9 is the cock rmt-installation. The power chamber aυ includes a pump u81 that sucks water in the water receiving chamber u2 and supplies the water to the heat exchanger side (to be described later), a motor (II) that rotates the pump, and a rotary pad external to the motor holder. A regulator that can be adjusted by a knob (7), and a control unit equipped with a power switch, a pilot lamp, a thermostat, etc. are respectively provided in the cooling chamber (9). A support shelf C411t is provided.The water supplied from the pump 4 is meandered over almost the entire surface of the cooling chamber (9) on the upper part of the support shelf C411t.
A flat heat exchanger (23I) is installed via a branch (X!), which sends out an external force to the external force. Reservoirs Q4 and - are respectively formed, and the bottom part is provided with a drain pipe for discharging water from the reservoir sQ4, and a drain pipe is attached to the drain tGfi. This is a through hole for ice melting water.

In addition, in the embodiment, the heat exchanger α7) is flattened Y! Although the case where a meandering passage is formed in a /-shaped box body through a partition piece is shown, it is of course possible to bend the pipe into a meandering shape. The pillow B is a flat, airtight bag-like body made of a flexible material such as rubber, which has a bulged central part on one longitudinal side as shown in FIG.
12!Ib is connected to the connection part cl!, which is connected to the water inlet joint of water supply A and the water supply joint ■ through flexible hoses (11, (1)'), respectively. provided,
As shown in Figure 5, the inner surface has upward and downward protruding ribs so that the weight of the head does not impede the flow of water during use.

The figures are arranged in alternating traps. G11l is a pedestal used to raise the water supply device A't-high as necessary, and l3zh is a power cord.

However, when using the antipyretic device of the present application, connect the water inlet joint (13) and water supply joint c!z of water supply device A to the hose (1).

By (1)', the connection part t291a of pillow B, G! ! ll
b Connect the K center, open the lid (51) of the box body (2) and stack ice cubes on the heat exchanger (17), and open the water receiving chamber (
After pouring water into the tank 12+, the lid body (5) is closed and sealed, and in this state, the control unit - is energized. Then, the motor 4 drives the pump (I81) and the water in the ice receiving chamber (121 is pumped to the pump 1I).
Heat exchanger Q universal water supply joint by E9.

Hose (1)', connection island, pillow B, hose a, hose (
1) The water circulates through the flow path leading to the water inlet joint 0 and the ice compartment az, and is cooled by meandering in the heat exchanger αη while exchanging heat with the ice. The patient's head is cooled, and the heated water is again heat exchanged with ice in the heat exchanger (17).

The temperature of this circulating water can be sensed from the outside with a thermometer I, and the amount of circulating water is adjusted by the rotation speed of a motor (11) to always circulate cooling water at an appropriate temperature.

- The water that has been heat exchanged and melted in the power heat exchanger (17) is stored in the storage part @ through the through hole (■), and the water is discharged to the outside from the drain pipe as necessary, and the water in the ice compartment (a) is It is also discharged to the outside from the drain pipe (151) when not in use.

Although the above example shows a case where one pillow B is connected to one water dispenser A, 2 For example, when multiple pillows B are used in a hospital etc., they can be connected to one water dispenser A by branching off from each one. 4I number of pillows
- Can also be used in connection.

As described above, according to the present application, since no ice is placed inside the pillow, the feel is extremely good, and there is no need to replace the ice, so there is no risk of causing pain or discomfort to the patient. However, since the capacity of the water cooler is not particularly important, its size can be arbitrarily designed depending on the mode of use, and it can be used for a long time, so it has the advantage of being extremely convenient to use.
