技术领域
本发明一般涉及适用于弹性紧缩绷带的可透气的弹性材料,以及涉及用于形成这类材料的方法。
背景技术
弹性的紧缩绷带可以制成许多形式。通常,这类绷带是由软的,弹性的材料制成,这样当配戴时,它们为损伤的关节提供一定数量的支承。这些类型的绷带经常不要处方即可采购,或者对熟练者不需要专业配件,它们已经使用多年,以及通常可以作为绷带用于膝、踝、股、腕、肘、胸、肩,或下背部。这些弹性的柔韧的紧缩绷带可以用于治疗扭伤和拉伤、关节炎、腱膜炎、滑囊炎、各种炎症,以便减轻手术后使用期间的不舒适,或者治疗创伤后的不舒适。
弹性紧缩绷带经常用合成橡胶(例如,氯丁橡胶)制造。这种特殊的材料是希望的,因为它综合了弹性紧缩绷带所需的有利的性能。氯丁橡胶具有良好的弹性和较高的密度,从而提供了良好的紧缩支承和耐剪切力强度。
氯丁橡胶是密闭网格材料,因而在使用时散热不是很好。它的密闭网格特性可以在反射辐射热返回作用区的骨骼和关节的用途中保持热量。这种热量的局部集中,有助于静脉流动,减少水肿,和使软组织对损伤较少敏感。
虽然使用氯丁橡胶在弹性紧缩绷带内可以集中热量,但密闭网格材料的天然倾向阻止了热散射,仍可为患者带来问题。当配戴时,氯丁橡胶材料绷带拉紧以围绕作用体区施加紧缩载荷。这种紧缩配合与材料的高密度相结合,以及缺少空气循环和通过材料的散逸可能导致热不舒适和出汗以及引起热疹。长期使用这种绷带可以导致患者不断地出汗,造成不舒适,并经常促使使用者不到期即停止配戴这种绷带。在效果上,材料本身限定了矫形术绷带可以配戴的时间长度。并不罕见的情况是使用者在约1-2小时后停止配戴这种绷带。在一项改进透气性的尝试中,某些先有的氯丁橡胶绷带制造成通过整个材料厚度带有穿孔或冲孔的。然而,这些绷带可能没有保持足够的结构完整性,以便用作配戴者的有效的紧缩绷带,因为由这些绷带除去了部分氯丁橡胶材料。
尤其是,冲孔或切割孔成绷带的先有技术方法可能产生材料中的弱点。材料设计成围绕使用者的一部分缠绕和/或拉伸,这样造成切割孔的延长和变形。简单地切割或冲孔到材料中的孔将引起材料的局部变弱,和拉伸可能引起材料在这些区域撕裂。
因此,需要一种弹性的紧缩绷带,它具有足够的结构强度和完整性,以提供足够的紧缩支承水平,而同时又可以在使用中散热,以减小或避免过度的出汗和热不舒适,特别是在长期使用时。
发明内容
本发明针对一种可以在复合材料中使用—例如供在矫形紧缩绷带中使用—的弹性嵌片或层以及用于制造这种弹性嵌片的方法。弹性嵌片包括改进嵌片透气性的一些特性—例如,便于排除矫形绷带中的热量和水分。
弹性嵌片由一种密闭网格泡沫材料薄片如一种氯丁橡胶薄片制成,上述氯丁橡胶薄片具有一厚度是在约2.0和10.0mm之间。弹性嵌片的一侧面限定一个凹槽部分或若干沟槽,上述沟槽通过用对置的加热板压缩泡沫材料薄片制成。穿过泡沫材料薄片设置多个孔眼,孔眼由用加热的销钉穿过嵌片制成。因此孔眼和沟槽是在不从密闭网格的薄片中切去任何材料的条件下制成。
在本发明的一个实施例中,孔眼是圆形,并且具有一直径是在约0.5和3.0mm之间。在本发明的另一个实施例中,孔眼设置在沟槽内。
一种制造适合于在紧缩绷带中使用的材料的方法,该方法包括以下步骤:在一第一板和一第二板之间设置一个密闭网格泡沫材料薄片,上述第一板具有多个从一第一表面延伸的彼此间隔10.0mm-15.0mm且直径在0.5mm-3.0mm之间的销钉,而上述第二板具有多个间隔开的孔眼,其中各孔眼加工成一定尺寸和形状,以便当第一板和第二板适当地对准时滑动式接合销钉;以及第一板和第二板的至少其中之一还包括多个间隔10.0mm-15.0mm并且高1.0mm-2.0mm的凸出部分;将第一板和第二板的至少其中之一加热到选定的温度;将第一板和第二板推压在一起,以致第一板上的销钉穿过密闭网格泡沫材料薄片并滑动式接合第二板上的孔眼;保持第一板和第二板之间的压力一段时间,以致凸出部分压紧密闭网格泡沫材料薄片上的多个凹槽部分;以及将第一板和第二板分开并除去密封网格泡沫材料。
在本发明的一个实施例中,板的至少其中之一加热到温度是在约145℃和160℃之间,和保持约50kg/cm2的压力约4-6分钟以形成沟槽。

具体实施方式
图1和2示出按照本发明原理的矫形术材料制造的膝绷带20。矫形术材料示于图3,4和5。膝绷带是一种由图3,4和5所示柔韧的弹性复合材料100制造的软矫形绷带。扁平形状的复合材料100切割成形和用缝制或其它方法装配成图1和2所示的管形膝绷带20。
参见图1-3,一张平片形状的复合材料100用其自身对折。折叠的相对侧面上的重叠的长边用直立的长接缝50固定。平片形状的材料切割成形,这样当如图1和2所示沿接缝50缝合时,通常形成管形的弯曲膝支承,它具有开启顶口60和开启底口70。在上边缘处的周边缝合80和在底边缘处的类似的周边缝合90提供了成品膝支承用的最终边缘。
包括复合材料100的部件可通过参见图3,4和5更好地理解。图3示出本发明的复合材料100的部件的横剖面图。复合材料包括柔韧的和可折叠的中心弹性层110,内织物层130和外织物层120。中心弹性层110最好由片形的密闭网格泡沫材料制造。一种最佳的弹性密闭网格材料是氯丁二烯橡胶,通常称为氯丁橡胶。最佳的氯丁橡胶材料最好是商业产品。中心层110用的另一种适当的材料是苯乙烯—丁二烯橡胶(SBR)。这些材料可以在广泛的密度范围内使用,因此不难发现所需密度的材料以提供希望的支承水平和在使用时提供良好的矫形术紧缩。理想的是,为了本发明的目的这种材料具有的厚度是由1.5mm至8.0mm。然而,也可以使用其它厚度。此外,也可以使用其它弹性的密闭网格材料形成中心层110。
中心弹性层110在其一个侧面上形成多个交叉的槽或沟140。在非限制性实例中,本发明的一个实施例示出了交叉沟槽140的图案,它的形成方法是向下放置氯丁橡胶片材料到金属网格上面以及随后放置加载的热源到平片材料的顶部。压力和热量导致金属网格被压入平片材料内,以便在金属网格的网格图案被压入的地方的底面永久地取得金属网格的形状。此外,或者作为替代方案,金属网格可以是预热的。
在本发明的另一个实施例中,交叉的沟槽140的图案是在平片材料的两个表面上形成的。它实现的一种方法是在顶部和底部金属网格之间夹置中心层110,以及热压两个金属网格顶住中心层110,导致两个金属网格压入平片材料的两个表面。网格图案在中心层110的两个表面上可以是相同的,或者可以是不同的形状。
在图3和4所示的实施例中,多个交叉的沟槽140是在中心的弹性层110上形成的,它限定了通常是矩形或方形的图案或网格。可以理解,图案可以是任何其它形状的,例如菱形的、三角形的、椭圆形的、圆形的等,只要沟槽140相互交叉,从而提供跨过平片材料和沿材料长度的连续的或互连的通道。
中心弹性层可以是冲孔的,以形成多个通过中心层的重复的冲孔或切口150。为了简化,在图3内没有示出切口150,但在图4和5内示出切150。图4是示出冲孔的中心层110的一段的前平面图。图5是示出图4所示的冲孔的中心层110的一段的后平面图。重复的切口150跨过中心的弹性层110的表面分布以及贯穿中心层的整个深度,从而使包括汗液和空气的流体可以通过切口150从中心层的一面到达另一面,特别是当中心层拉伸时。
在本发明的一个实施例中,切口150仅处于记录的沟槽部分140。在另一个实施例中,切口150不仅处于沟槽140内,也处于弹性层110的无沟槽部分。切口150可以仅处于沟槽140的交叉处,或者重复的切口150可以是均匀的图案以及绕中心弹性层110保持均匀间隔。理想的是,重复的切口150不应过大或者切口的间隔过于靠近,以致氯丁橡胶材料的总结构完整性降低超出材料能够在使用时提供足够的矫正术紧缩支承的能力。
重复的切口150可以限定一种切口图案。图4和5示出一种具有由一公共点辐射的三条“脚线”的切口图案。然而应该理解,切口图案可以是任何形状的,例如直线、曲线、十字形、或5脚式图案,只要不脱离本发明的范围即可。还应该理解,最好是冲孔如果由中心的弹性层110或沟槽140除去任何材料,不应实际除去任何大量材料;宁可使冲孔单纯地贯穿沟槽。因此,除了材料被拉伸时外,冲孔不应形成通过氯丁橡胶材料的孔或通道。
重复的切口150的图案可以用一系列的方法在中心的弹性层110上形成。在氯丁橡胶材料内形成切口图案的一种方法是借助辊筒,辊筒具有附带希望的切口图案凸出冲头的圆柱形外表面,从而在辊筒滚过氯丁橡胶材料的平表面时切割出希望的图案。
参见图3,复合材料100还包括软的、柔韧的、弹性的、松孔的内织物层130。内层130可以是编织的柔韧的和可折叠的、可拉伸的纤维织物材料,由于编织织物固有的松孔,材料中的松孔可供空气和水分通过。复合材料100还包括柔韧的和弹性的、松孔的外织物层120,它也可由拉伸的编织织物制造,与内层130的类型相同或不同。内织物层和外织物层130和120分别可以用其它可拉伸的编织织物制造,例如尼龙、涤纶或其它合成纤维。
在中心的弹性层110用多个交叉的沟槽140在其一侧面改变和冲出切口图案150之后,内织物层130连接到中心层110的带沟槽表面上,而外织物层120连接到中心层110的无沟槽表面上。内织物层130可以使用胶接技术胶接到中心层110上,胶接技术应防止胶液或其它胶接剂放置到沟槽140内。这样一来,胶接剂不会封闭或阻塞沟槽140。外织物层120也可使用胶液或其它胶接剂连接到中心层110。胶接剂分别连接中心层110的整个接触表面区和相邻的内织物层和外织物层130和120。应该注意的是,胶接剂不应破坏中心层110和内织物层或外织物层130或120的松孔度。
返回图1和2,膝绷带20是以带沟槽的侧面对着使用者身体配戴,这样保证了对人体保持热量的优点,而又使膝绷带20可以透气。此外,由于膝绷带20是由复合材料制造的,它具有足够的松孔度,完全可以避免使用中积累的内部热量。膝绷带20还可以提供在其拉伸状态下被膝绷带20支承的人体部分周围的良好的紧缩。弹性的中心层实质上保持其全部能力,对包围的人体部分施加紧缩载荷,因为实际上并未象某些普通绷带那样由氯丁橡胶中心层除去。此外,膝绷带20具有足够的密度,由于选用了氯丁橡胶、苯乙烯—丁二烯橡胶或其它材料,以提供有用的膝绷带所需的紧缩。内织物层和外织物层130和120也对膝绷带20提供了附加的紧缩强度。
膝绷带20还提供了良好的透气性。当膝绷带20在使用时,它按双方向形式拉伸,从而产生泵送作用,使空气通过膝绷带20的沟槽140流动。这样携带人体的汗液通过沟槽140由膝绷带20的末端排出。膝绷带20还允许新鲜的冷空气通过膝绷带20向内流动到达人体,因此,当在使用中绷带被拉伸时,一定数量的热量可由膝绷带20的内部通过多个张开的切口150流向外部。
按照本发明的另一方面,凝胶或小球形状的硅树脂152可以沿膝绷带20的内部在绷带的长度方向上涂敷,或许在绷带的两个相对的面上涂敷。作为补充或代替的方案,硅树脂球154也可以沿绷带的内部周边放置,或许接近绷带的末端放置。硅树脂可以一定宽度的条形线或带或其它图案形式放置。此外,硅树脂线或带可以是直的或者弯曲的。硅树脂材料由于硅树脂与人体之间的摩擦而使绷带停留在人体适当位置上。然而,硅树脂不会引起不舒适或者对人体过度的损伤。
在一个实施例中,硅树脂可以在绷带完全制成后涂敷在膝绷带20的内部。在另一个实施例中,硅树脂是涂敷在膝绷带20的内织物层130的内部和随后内织物层130贴到中心层110的内部。技术熟悉人士应该理解,在不脱离本发明范围的条件下,除硅树脂之外,也可以使用其它材料使绷带停留在人体适当位置上。
图6-8示出复合材料100在紧缩绷带内的进一步应用。图6示出肘绷带160,其中复合材料100是折叠的和沿着它的长度接缝。绷带可以具有中间接缝170以形成通常的L形的管形弹性绷带。管形绷带的顶边和底边具有缝合的周边接缝180用于边缘的增强。图7示出用复合材料100制造的腕绷带190,其中材料是折叠的和沿着它的长度接缝,以形成通常的直管形绷带,它在其相对的末端具有周边缝合接缝200,用于边缘的增强。图8示出由复合材料100制造的踝绷带210。踝绷带210形成通常的L形的管形绷带,在其相对的末端处具有周边缝合接缝220,围绕绷带一个边缘部分的周边缝合接缝230,它围绕使用者的后跟配合。绷带可以包括中间缝合接缝240,用于固定L形踝绷带的相邻的中间边缘。
这些紧缩绷带可以用于提供所需的解剖学紧缩支承水平,而又改进了支承区的通风,以减少由于出汗和过热引起的不舒适。因此,本发明改进的复合材料可以改进由这种材料组合成的紧缩绷带提供的解剖学支承,因为使用者能够长期配带这种绷带,而不会由于热不舒适而提前除去绷带。
图9和10示出一个弹性层310的代替的实施例,其中图9示出弹性层310的透视图和图10示出通过线段10-10的弹性层310的横剖面图。弹性层310包括多个排列成交叉图案的沟槽312和通过弹性层310的一系列小的、一般是圆形的孔眼314。这个优选实施例的孔眼314位于沟槽312的交叉部分处,不过可以预料,不是每个交叉部分都必需有孔眼314,和/或在中间位置处的沟槽312内可以提供另外的孔眼。
交叉沟槽312和张开的孔眼314的结合提供一种网络,供空气和水分从弹性层310的一面流到另一面,而在弹性层310中仍保持足够的弹性,以产生希望的紧缩力。如下面更详细论述的,张开的孔眼314可以用加热的销钉形成,销钉穿过材料以形成孔眼314,这样使材料部分软化或熔化,导致孔眼314周围的材料增强。中心弹性层310最好由一种密闭网格泡沫材料片如氯丁橡胶制造,如下面更详细论述的。
应该理解,弹性层310可以与外织物层和内织物层如图3中分别作为120和130表示的结合。应该理解,圆形孔眼314不同于图4所示的实施例的切口150,因为即使当弹性层310不被拉伸时,孔眼314也是“张开的”。还可以预料,孔眼314可以是除圆形之外的形状,而仍保持总是张开的特性。
在使用时,弹性层310可以结合在如上所述的复合材料中,它通常用沟槽312向里面向使用者的张开的部分取向,从而促使横向的空气和水分流向孔眼314接着流到使用者的皮肤,和从而促使把水分和热量从使用者排出去。
图11和12分别示出弹性层320另一个代替的实施例的透视图和横剖面图,其中各细长的沟槽322不相互交叉,而宁愿是沿着弹性层320在纵向上取向。多个孔眼324贯穿弹性层320,孔眼324一般设置在细长的沟槽322的内部。使用平行的、纵向的沟槽322在弹性层320中产生各向异性的柔韧性,它导致在纵向方向上的弹性比在横向方向上的弹性更小(更大的刚度)。平行的沟槽322还允许更多的热量和水分的定向流动,从而材料可以优化供特殊的应用。用这种材料,设计者可以给弹性层320定向,以致沟槽322沿着一最佳方向导向—例如,对预定用弹性层320包围的特殊的身体部分采取几何形状或自然循环的图案的优点。
图13A,13B和13C示出通过本发明实施的几个示例性的替代的实施例的弹性层330,340,350。尤其是,图13A示出一种弹性层330,它具有多个在弹性层上以规则图案排列的圆形凸出部分332。在各凸出部分332之间弹性层330的凹进部分333包括多个贯穿弹性层330的孔眼334。同样,图13B示出弹性层340,它具有多个在弹性层上以规则图案排列的方形或矩形凸出部分342。在各凸出部分342之间弹性层340的凹进部分343包括多个贯穿弹性层340的孔眼344。图13C示出弹性层350,它具有多个沿着弹性层350在纵向上延伸的波浪形的沟槽353,其中在波浪形沟槽353中设置多个孔眼354。很显然,用于沟槽(或凸出部分)的其它图案也是可能的。
现在参见图14和15,将说明一种用于生产弹性材料的示例性方法。尽管所公开的方法示出用于图10和11中示出的弹性层310,但应该理解,该方法可以用来生产图9-13C示出的任何弹性层。
如图14和图15的横剖面侧视图所示,弹性层310可以利用上板410和下板420形成。在一最佳实施例中,将密闭网格聚合物材料如氯丁橡胶薄片400设置在上板410和下板420之间。薄片400的厚度最好是在约2.0mm和10.0mm之间。上板410包括多个至少部分地从下表面416贯穿上板410的孔眼414。下板420包括对应的多个向上延伸的销钉422,它们定尺寸和定位,以便当把上板和下板410,420推在一起时,滑动式接合多个孔眼414。销钉422最好是具有直径在约0.5mm和3.0mm之间,而对应于孔眼414的孔眼直径比销钉422稍大。
上板410还包括在它的下表面416上的细长的凸出部分412的图案,它们适合于在聚合物薄片400上形成希望的凹槽或沟槽312的图案。在一最佳实施例中,各销钉422(和孔眼414)间隔约10.0mm-15.0mm,而细长的凸出部分412是两组交叉的、平行的线性凸出部分,每组线性凸出部分都具有间隔10.0mm-15.0mm的线条。细长的凸出部分412最好是高约1.0mm-2.0mm。
将板410,420加热并将聚合物薄片400设置在它们之间。然后移动上板和下板410,420或将它们推在一起,以致下板420上加热的销钉422给薄片400冲孔以在其中产生孔眼314,并滑动式接合上板410上的孔眼414。加热的板410,420保持在一起一段时间以在薄片400中形成沟槽312的图案。在一种最佳方式中,将上板和下板410,420加热到温度是在约145℃和160℃之间,并用大约50kg/cm2的偏置压力使它们保持在一起约4-6分钟。
如图14中箭头所示,将上板和下板410,420推在一起以在薄片400中产生孔眼沟槽312和孔眼314的图案。在希望的时间之后,将板410,420分开,以除去或更换薄片400,或在纵向上移动以在薄片400的另外部分上重复该过程。很显然,上板和下板410,420的特殊定向并不重要,并且方法可以代替地用转换板或将整个组件旋转一任意量完成。
本方法提供某些优点。多个孔眼314和沟槽312的图案以一个步骤同时形成,同时简化了制造过程。此外,利用加热的板410,420和销钉422以形成孔眼314和沟槽312导致围绕孔眼314和沟槽312周边的较厚和/或强化的区域,减少了材料中撕裂的可能并帮助保持材料的总强度。应该很容易理解,该方法不要求从薄片400切去任何材料。
图16和17示出构造稍微不同的板430,440,它们与上述实施例的板相似,其中上板430包括多个销钉432,它们从上板430的下表面436向下延伸。多个细长的凸出部分434也从下表面436延伸。下板440包括多个孔眼442,它们加工成一定尺寸和形状以便当上板和下板适当地对准时在上板430中滑动式接收销钉432。除了在上板430上而不是在下板440上设置销钉432之外,这个第二实施例基本上与图14和15所示的实施例相同。尤其是,最佳尺寸和工作参数与上述的那些相同。
可以预料,任何弹性层310,320,330,340,350都可以具有如上(见图3)所述的固定于其上的松孔外织物层,其中可以在材料施压带有孔眼和沟槽之前或之后涂敷其中一个或两个外织物层。例如,如图18所示,薄片400可以包括固定到上表面上的上面松孔的织物层323和固定到内层下表面上的下面松孔的织物层321。织物层321,323最好是一种编织的、柔韧的、和可拉伸的纤维织物材料,由于编织织物固有的松孔,材料中的松孔可供空气和水分通过。
在一种方法中,如图18所示,上织物层323和下织物层321二者都在形成孔眼314和沟槽312之前固定到弹性层310上。如果上织物层323具有足够的柔韧性,则它可以与弹性层310中形成的沟槽312一致,以致沟槽312的压缩图案将在上织物层323中出现。应该理解,最终材料将保留孔眼314和沟槽312的优点,它增强了热量和蒸汽通过材料传送。
在一种替代方法中,只有下织物层321在形成孔眼314和沟槽312之前涂敷到薄片400上,因此当上织物层323固定时,沟槽312已经在弹性层310中形成,这样上织物层323一般遮掩沟槽312的图案。此外,得到了孔眼314和沟槽312对增强热量和蒸汽传送有利的特性。
虽然上述弹性层适合于在紧缩绷带材料中使用,但可以预料,材料也可以替代地找到许多其它有用的应用—例如,作为在支承外部配戴时的可透气的、隔离层和/或作为其它服装的部件,如夹克、手套、背心、靴子和类似物。
虽然说明和叙述了本发明的最佳实施例,应该理解,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围的条件下,可以作出各种改变。
