Description

ENVELOPPE SOUPLE CONTENANT UNE PATE OU GEL D'ARGILEFLEXIBLE ENVELOPE CONTAINING A CLAY PASTE OR GEL
La présente invention concerne une thermo-frigo enveloppe, de formes différentes, contenant une pâte ou un gel naturel à base d'argile, permettant grâce a un générateur, d'emmagasiner de la chaleur ou du froid, puis de les restituer par application sur le corps dans un but thérapeutique, mais aussi, lorsqu'elles sont fixées à l'intérieur de boîte ou cuve isotherme, de maintenir la température d'un produit pendant plusieurs heures en acceptant une faible perte calorique Il existe des compresses de différents typesThe present invention relates to a thermo-fridge envelope, of different forms, containing a paste or a natural gel based on clay, allowing thanks to a generator, to store heat or cold, then to restore them by application on the body for therapeutic purposes, but also, when fixed inside the insulated box or tank, to maintain the temperature of a product for several hours while accepting a low caloric loss There are compresses of different types
1 °) à base de paraffine elle ne concerne que la chaleur car son état solide à température ambiante supprime sa malléabilité, elle peut se chauffer au bain-maπe ou dans un four électrique, mais pas au four à micro-ondes donc perte de temps a la chauffe Au bain-maπe, manque d'hygiène car l'eau n'est pas chauffée a 100° donc bouillon de culture, dépôts de cellules plus ou moins pathogènes, dépôt de transpiration : aucune stérilisation. La paraffine chauffée devient liquide. Il faut compartimenter la compresse en plusieurs segments soudés, afin d'éviter que toute la paraffine aille au fond de l'enveloppe, ce qui ne donnerait pas une épaisseur constante. Les changements successifs d'états, solide, liquide, solide, font lâcher prématurément les soudures des segments. La paraffine liquide chauffée, se répand alors et risque de brûler la peau, d'endommager les textiles ou de souiller la cuve de réchauffement La compresse peut se réchauffer par four électrique.1 °) based on paraffin it only concerns heat because its solid state at room temperature removes its malleability, it can be heated in a bain-marie or in an electric oven, but not in the microwave oven so waste of time with heating In the bain-maπe, lack of hygiene because the water is not heated to 100 ° therefore culture broth, deposits of more or less pathogenic cells, deposit of perspiration: no sterilization. The heated paraffin becomes liquid. It is necessary to compartmentalize the compress in several welded segments, in order to avoid that all the paraffin goes to the bottom of the envelope, which would not give a constant thickness. The successive changes of state, solid, liquid, solid, cause the welds of the segments to drop prematurely. The heated liquid paraffin then spreads and risks burning the skin, damaging textiles or contaminating the warming tank. The compress can be heated by an electric oven.
2°) à base de fluides, eau ou gel : ces compresses peuvent emmagasiner la chaleur par bain-marie, four électrique et surtout four à micro-ondes permettant une rapidité de chauffe et une meilleure hygiène. Par contre, lors de la restitution, le produit refroidit très vite en moins de 10 minutes En cas de percement ou de déchirure de l'enveloppe, les fluides vont se répandre à l'extérieur, brûler la peau et souiller ce qu'ils atteignent2) based on fluids, water or gel: these compresses can store heat by double boiler, electric oven and above all microwave oven allowing rapid heating and better hygiene. On the other hand, during the restitution, the product cools very quickly in less than 10 minutes In the event of piercing or tearing of the envelope, the fluids will spread outside, burn the skin and soil what they reach
Grâce à un composant antigel supplémentaire, ces compresses peuvent emmagasiner jusque - 30° tout en restant malléablesThanks to an additional antifreeze component, these pads can store down to - 30 ° while remaining malleable
- si on l'applique directement sur le corps risque de brûlure, - si on intercale un linge épais on perd le contrôle sensitif de la température,- if it is applied directly to the body, risk of burns, - if a thick cloth is inserted, the sensitive temperature control is lost,
- si la compresse se détériore le fluide se répand sur le corps, risque de brûlure, risque de toxicité en cas de composants chimiques toxiques 3°) certaines de ces compresses sont équipées de moyens de fixation type « velcro ».- if the compress deteriorates the fluid spreads over the body, risk of burns, risk of toxicity in the event of toxic chemical components 3) some of these compresses are fitted with “velcro” type fastening means.
La compresse, selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Elle est composée : 1°) d'une enveloppe plastique dont la composition lui confère une très grande souplesse de 30/100e ou 40/100e de mm d'épaisseur selon l'utilisation, 2°) d'une substance colloïdale composée de montmorillonite blanche du bassin méditerranéen ou encore bentonite du Wyoming, dont les propriétés sont de fixer 15 fois leur volume en eau, 3°) d'un anticryptogamique qui évite le développement des bactéries et des moisissures,The compress according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. It is composed: 1) of a plastic envelope whose composition gives it a very great flexibility of 30/100 e or 40/100 e of mm of thickness according to the use, 2 °) of a colloidal substance composed white montmorillonite from the Mediterranean basin or bentonite from Wyoming, whose properties are to fix 15 times their volume in water, 3 °) of an anti-cryptogamic which prevents the development of bacteria and molds,
4°) d'un additif qui permet de prolonger la conservation,4) of an additive which makes it possible to prolong the conservation,
5°) de l'eau normale ou distillée si l'on veut obtenir une grande stabilité de la pâte, 6°) d'un tensioactif permettant de diffuser l'eau uniformément dans la pâte montmorillonite ou bentonite, ce qui permettra d'obtenir une chauffe uniforme sur tout le volume de la compresse. Il convient de mélanger les 5 composants, (2° - 3° - 4° - 5° - 6°) de façon à obtenir une viscosité d'environ 120 000 centistockes, l'ensemble ne présente pas de toxicité. La compresse selon l'invention : A) Peut être chauffée au bain-marie, au four électrique mais aussi au four à microondes permettant une rapidité de chauffe et une meilleure hygiène. Elle garde la chaleur une heure et la restitue par application directe sur la peau. En cas de percement, de déchirure ou de lâchage des soudures, de l'enveloppe, la viscosité permet à la pâte ou au gel, de ne pas se répandre sur le corps, évitant ainsi les risques de brûlures, de toxicité et de souillure. La viscosité de la pâte permet à la compresse de garder une épaisseur uniforme, de se mouler parfaitement sur le corps et d'offrir à celui-ci une répartition et une durée uniforme de ta chaleur. B) La compresse peut être refroidie dans un réfrigérateur réglé à 4° puis appliquée sur le corps. Elle garde le froid 2 heures et le restitue par application directe sur la peau. Le fait qu'il ne soit ajouté aucun antigel dans les compresses destinées aux applications thérapeutiques permet à la compresse de geler et la rend inapplicable sur le corps à cause de sa rigidité, évitant ainsi les risques de brûlure. La malléabilité lui permet de galber toutes les formes du corps et sa viscosité de maintenir une épaisseur uniforme quelque soit le galbe répartissant le froid équitablement.5 °) normal or distilled water if one wants to obtain a great stability of the paste, 6 °) of a surfactant making it possible to diffuse the water uniformly in the montmorillonite or bentonite paste, which will make it possible to obtain uniform heating over the entire volume of the compress. It is advisable to mix the 5 components, (2 ° - 3 ° - 4 ° - 5 ° - 6 °) so as to obtain a viscosity of approximately 120,000 centistocks, the whole does not present any toxicity. The compress according to the invention: A) Can be heated in a water bath, in an electric oven but also in a microwave oven allowing rapid heating and better hygiene. It retains heat for one hour and releases it by direct application to the skin. In case of piercing, tearing or loosening of the welds, the envelope, the viscosity allows the paste or gel, not to spread on the body, thus avoiding the risk of burns, toxicity and soiling. The viscosity of the dough allows the compress to keep a uniform thickness, to mold itself perfectly to the body and to offer it a uniform distribution and duration of your heat. B) The compress can be cooled in a refrigerator set at 4 ° and then applied to the body. It keeps cold for 2 hours and restores it by direct application to the skin. The fact that no antifreeze is added in the pads intended for therapeutic applications allows the pad to freeze and makes it inapplicable to the body because of its rigidity, thus avoiding the risk of burns. The malleability allows it to shape all forms of the body and its viscosity to maintain a uniform thickness whatever the curve distributing the cold evenly.
