摘要:
An assembly for cooling the body of a person or another body has cooling elements that are movably connected to one another, contain a cooling liquid, and are arranged in the form of a cape or shawl which can be worn about the body of the person or the like for the purpose of being cooled. In order to provide such a cooling arrangement, which allows particularly rapid and efficient cooling of the body, provision is made for the cooling elements to contain within them a material, for example graphite, which is a good thermal conductor in relation to the cooling liquid and is intended for absorbing the cooling liquid.
摘要:
A cooling cover for cooling at least a part of the body of a patient includes at least one cooling element containing a cooling fluid and is intended for placement on the body or body part. The cooling element is cooled to below the freezing point prior to its application. The cooling element contains a material that has good thermal conductivity as compared to the cooling fluid and is contained in the cooling element to absorb the cooling fluid.
摘要:
Disclosed is a device for cooling a body or body part for medical or performance-enhancing purposes, said device consisting of one or more cooling elements (11), said cooling element (11) being provided with a cover (1) that is filled with meltable cooling solid (2). The disclosed device is characterized in that an additional apparatus for displacing the already melted portion (8) of the cooling solid (2) from the contact surface (7) to the body is provided inside the cover (1), the expandable member (4, 6) being preferably designed in the form of a filled member (4) of a spring element (6) or of a foamed article. Also disclosed is an additional device which is characterized in that a layer (16) of thermochromic material indicates when a threshold temperature is exceeded, said layer (16) being applied to the bottom side of the expandable member and thus being pressed against the remaining solid portion of the cooling solid, the cover (1) being transparent in this case.
