PORTABLE BODY SURFACE AIR COOLING METHOD AND DEVICE THEREOF
A portable body surface air cooling method and a device thereof are disclosed. A portable air compression and heat dissipation set at least composed of an air compression unit, an air heat dissipation passage set and a power unit. The device compresses air with normal temperature in an environment to form compressed air, transfers the compressed air through a transfer passage, dissipates the heat of the compressed air and lowers the temperature of the compressed air in the transfer process, making the compressed air with lowered temperature continuously self-expand to reduce the pressure and lower the temperature in the transfer passage, guiding the compressed air to a terminal expansion spraying/spreading position, The compressed air is directly sprayed to the body surface of the user to spread hot air layer and perform the processes of final expansion, heat absorption and temperature lowering. Accordingly, double cooling effects are achieved.
Eye mask with integrally formed heating structure and its manufacturing process
The invention provides an eye mask with an integrally formed heating structure and a manufacturing process thereof, belonging to the field of nursing appliances. It includes an eye mask main body manufactured by an integral molding process, a detachable power supply controller, and a plug-in power supply mechanism. Wherein, the main body of the eye mask is sewn from non-woven fabric, sponge, and carbon fiber heating body. The present invention can quickly sew an eye mask with an integrated structure by using the cut non-woven fabric, sponge, and carbon fiber heating body so that the processing method of the eye mask is simpler and the manufacturing cost is reduced, and the eye mask using the carbon fiber heating body can realize constant temperature heating.
MEDICAL BATTERY MODULE, VACUUM MATTRESS, HEATING MAT
A medical battery module for vacuum mattresses and heating mats includes a battery compartment and a battery that is removable from and insertable into the battery compartment. The battery is electrically connectable or connected to a heating support of the vacuum mattress or of the heating mat. The battery compartment is padded with a shock-resistant material and the shock-resistant material is at least partly sheathed by a liquid-repellent film. The battery module is either separate from the heating support or lies on the heating support.
PAIN-REDUCING INJECTION APPARATUS
A pain-reducing injection apparatus to enhance the safety, efficacy, and efficiency of injection procedures which utilize topical pain-reducing measures. Apparatuses and methods of use provide pain reduction through thermal cooling of an injection region or vibrating the region or both, and optionally include safety shielding and lockout features.
TEMPERATURE REGULATING SYSTEM
A temperature regulation system for regulating the temperature of a portion of a body, in particular of a user's body.
The system comprises one humidity sensor for measuring humidity in the vicinity of the portion of a body, one temperature adjustment element for providing heat to a portion of the body, a memory unit for storing one threshold humidity related value (H.sub.thresh) and one reference user information related values (t.sub.ref, θ.sub.ref), a controlling unit in communication with the humidity sensor, with the memory unit and with the temperature adjustment element, and configured to determine one instant user information related value (t.sub.inst, θ.sub.inst), perform a comparison between one instant user information related value (tin.sub.ct, θ.sub.inst) and one triggering user information related value (t.sub.trig, θ.sub.trig) based on said reference user information related value (t.sub.ref, θ.sub.ref), activate the temperature adjustment element to provide heat to a portion of the body depending on the result of said comparison.
The controlling unit is further configured to receive one instant humidity (H.sub.inst) measured in the vicinity of the portion of the body from the humidity sensor, perform a comparison between said instant humidity related value (H.sub.inst) and one triggering humidity related value (H.sub.trig) based on said threshold humidity related value (H.sub.thresh), and to set the one triggering user information related value (t.sub.trig, θ.sub.trig) to a value lower than said reference user information related value (t.sub.ref, θ.sub.ref) when the instant humidity related value (H.sub.inst) is greater or equal to said threshold humidity related value (H.sub.thresh).
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MAINTAINING ENTHALPY WITH SECONDARY MECHANISMS
An interactive enthalpy exchange system for infant care includes a pouch for receiving an infant, and a heat source arranged in the pouch. The heat source includes a first heat source and a second heat source different from the first heat source. Control circuitry is operatively coupled to the heat source, the control circuitry configured to control interactive enthalpy between the first heat source and the second heat source to maintain a temperature within the pouch at a prescribed temperature.
HOLDING ELEMENT FOR AN ACTIVE ARTICLE OF CLOTHING
A holding element is intended to be affixed to an active article of clothing at two spaced apart locations. It is provided with first electrical terminals for connection to an activation unit, which is to be secured to the article of clothing by the holding element, second electrical terminals for connection to a functional component of the active article of clothing and electrically conductive paths between the first and second terminals, the second electrical terminals being placed where the holding element is intended to be affixed to the article of clothing. The holding element is arranged to hold the activation unit between the holding element and the article of clothing between the two spaced apart locations and the holding element is flexible so that it shapes itself around the activation unit when the activation unit is introduced between the holding element and the article of clothing.
WIRELESS-CONTROLLED THERAPEUTIC WARMING EYE WEAR DEVICE
A therapeutic eye mask having a wireless temperature and duration controller is disclosed. The therapeutic eye mask comprises an eye mask configured to fit over an user's face, a heater and temperature sensor attached to the eye mask configured to heat and sense a temperature, and a wireless thermal controller coupled to the heater and temperature sensor configured to control the heater and temperature sensor to a particular temperature in response to a heat setting on the wireless temperature and duration controller. Such an arrangement allows a user to operate the wireless temperature and duration controller to set the heater and temperature sensor so as to achieve therapeutic warmth and flexible regulation of the temperature and long keeping the temperature constant to the therapeutic eye mask.
Oral Heating Apparatus For Gum Disease Treatment
The present invention is an oral heating element designed to apply heat and increase blood circulation along the gums to prevent and treat gum disease. The oral heating apparatus is designed to fit inside the mouth for extended periods of time. The heating element has a heating filament encased in a food safe plastic sheath capable of transmitting heat evenly along the surface of the sheath facing the gums.
Implantable thermal therapy devices
Implantable thermal therapy devices, systems, and methods are provided for the treatment of pathological conditions including arrhythmias and trauma. The implantable thermal therapy devices and systems are specifically structured to deliver transient cooling to a target tissue, and to gradually dissipate the heat energy transferred from the target tissue to other body masses in a controlled and delicate manner. In some examples, a phase change material can be used to accomplish such a gradual dissipation of the heat.
