COLD/HOT COMPRESS STRIP DEVICE WITH QUICK REPLACEABLE COMPRESS STRIP AND EFFICIENT COLD/HOT SWITCH
A cold/hot compress strip device with a quick replaceable compress strip and an efficient cold/hot switch includes a host machine and a flexible compress strip fixable to an affected part on a human body surface, and the host machine can pump the cooled cold water from its container into the compress strip and circulate the cold water in the compress strip for cold compress, or can quickly discharge the cold water in the compress strip, and drive a heating film on the compress strip to generate heat for hot compress, so as to achieve an efficient cold/hot switch, and the compress strip can be replaced quickly as needed. The application of the cold/hot compress strip device is very simple and practical.
ELECTRIC HEATING PADS AND MATTRESSES
An electric heating pad for warming a patient includes a heated underbody support or heated mattress. The heated underbody support or mattress includes a heater assembly having a flexible sheet-like heating element, conductive bus bars attached at or near side edges of the heating element, and fabric side edge extensions attached to heating element side edges. The heated underbody support or mattress also includes a layer of polymeric foam positioned under the heater assembly and a shell, including at least two sheets of flexible material, covering at least a portion of the heater assembly and the layer of polymeric foam. When the heater assembly is wrapped around the top surface of the layer of polymeric foam, side edges of the heating element extend partially down the two side walls of the layer of polymeric foam and the conductive bus bars lie adjacent those two side walls.
DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CLOGGED GLANDS OF THE EYE
A system for treating clogged glands of the eye includes a heated eye mask and an electrical cord. The heated eye mask includes an outer layer of surface material, an inner layer of surface material, and a carbon fiber heating element. The carbon fiber heating element is disposed between the outer and inner layers of surface material in a therapeutic region of the heated eye mask. The therapeutic region of the heated eye mask extends along the Meibomian glands of the eye. The carbon fiber heating element is encapsulated by an electrically insulating cover. A thermally conductive material evenly distributes heat across the therapeutic region of the heated eye mask. The electrical cord provides power to the heated eye mask.
Electric heating pads and mattresses
An electric heating pad for warming a patient includes a heated underbody support or heated mattress. The heated underbody support or mattress includes a heater assembly having a flexible sheet-like heating element, conductive bus bars attached at or near side edges of the heating element, and fabric side edge extensions attached to heating element side edges. The heated underbody support or mattress also includes a layer of polymeric foam positioned under the heater assembly and a shell, including at least two sheets of flexible material, covering at least a portion of the heater assembly and the layer of polymeric foam. When the heater assembly is wrapped around the top surface of the layer of polymeric foam, side edges of the heating element extend partially down the two side walls of the layer of polymeric foam and the conductive bus bars lie adjacent those two side walls.
COLD AND HEAT COSMETIC INSTRUMENT AND COLD AND HEAT COSMETIC MECHANISM COMPRISING THE SAME
A cold and heat cosmetic instrument, including: a casing, a jade massage piece, a heat sink, and a cooling and heating piece. The casing defines therein an opening, the jade massage piece is arranged at the opening, and the casing and the jade massage piece are sealed to form a first accommodation chamber. The heat sink and the cooling and heating piece are arranged within the first accommodation chamber. The cooling and heating piece is in contact with the heat sink and the jade massage piece, respectively. A cold and heat cosmetic mechanism includes: a wireless charging station and the cold and heat cosmetic instrument. A receiver device for electromagnetic induction charging is arranged within the first accommodation chamber. A wireless charging station defines therein a second accommodation chamber. A transmitter device for electromagnetic induction charging is accommodated in the second accommodation chamber and connected with a charging data cable.
Controllable heated mask
A heated mask comprises a user-operated control providing a number of different parameters including temperature and duration of heat application. At least one area contains a heater element. The heated mask covers an upper portion of a face and has areas positioned to be in registration with sinuses of a user. The heating element in one form comprises a serpentine conductor having a path through each area and having a preselected resistance in each area. In another form, a plurality of separate electrodes are provided, each in one selected area. Each electrode section is separately controlled to provide a preselected level of heat. It has been found that selected temperatures for a heater provide relief for sinus congestion, and that particular combinations of relative setting of a plurality of electrodes are associated with enhanced therapeutic results.
Array Of Cutaneous Patches For Delivery And Heating Of Personal Care Products
An array of heating patches for placement on the skin, especially the skin of the face. Each patch has a heating circuit incorporated therein, and the patches are electrically connected to each other in series and/or parallel. Electrical energy, and optionally, digital information, may be supplied to the patches through one or more cables that originate in an appropriate electrical connector. Each patch has two layers; a disposable layer and a reusable layer.
INTRAOCULAR IRRIGATION FLUID TEMPERATURE MODULATOR SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME
The present invention is directed to the field of ophthalmological surgery and pertains to a system to modulate the intraocular irrigation solution for the anterior and/or posterior chamber of the eye to body temperature during an ophthalmological surgery.
Nasal mucosa heating and occlusion eyewear
The instant invention provides an eyewear piece having a nasal mucosa heating and occlusion apparatus. The eyewear piece includes a bridge extending substantially across the wearer's face and having flexible joints at opposite ends thereof to attach temples, which extends over the ears to keep the eyewear on the wearer's face. The bridge includes a housing and depending therefrom is a nasal frame having nasal passageways to provide heat into the nasal cavity. It is contemplated that other therapeutic remedies are offered to the wearer.
Projection frame eyelid heater
In one form, a projection frame eyelid heater includes a heating element and a frame. The heating element has first and second heat producing areas separated by a distance corresponding to a separation of human eyes and has first and second ends. The heating element produces heat in response to an application of a voltage thereto. The frame includes a left temple attachment portion and a right temple attachment portion each having a respective back portion extending downward and inward, a left eyelid chassis portion, an intermediate chassis portion, and a right eyelid chassis portion, wherein the intermediate chassis portion connects the left eyelid chassis portion and the right eyelid chassis portion. Each of the left eyelid chassis portion and the right eyelid chassis portion is adjustable with respect to the intermediate chassis portion in a direction from the user's nose toward the user's left and right eyes, respectively.
