Abstract
The standalone mobile device (10) for muscle recovery by cryotherapy comprises: a container (11) of pressurised fluid; an expander (12) for reducing the pressure of the pressurised fluid, fluidically connected to the container and equipped with an outlet (20) for the expanded gas; a sheet (13) of thermally conductive material configured to rest on the skin of the user, and equipped with a heat exchanger radiator (14) positioned on the path of the expanded gas output from the gas expander.
Claims16
Standalone mobile device for muscle recovery by cryotherapy, characterised in that it comprises:
- a container of pressurised fluid;
- an expander for reducing the pressure of the pressurised fluid, fluidically connected to the container and equipped with an outlet for the expanded gas;
- a sheet of thermally conductive material configured to rest on a skin of a user, and equipped with a heat exchanger radiator positioned on a path of the expanded gas output from the gas expander, the radiator having parallel vertical metal fins between which the expanded gas from the outlet of the expander circulates.
Method for muscle recovery by cryotherapy, characterised in that it comprises:
- a step of positioning a sheet of thermally conductive material configured to rest on the skin of the user, and equipped with a heat exchanger radiator,
- a step of expanding a pressurised fluid against the sheet,
- wherein the radiator has parallel vertical metal fins between which the expanded gas from an outlet of the expander circulates.
