[0022] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.

[0023] Example 1: like Figures 1-4 As shown, this invention discloses a space capsule nano-bath therapy device, including a base 1. A support base 11 is provided at the lower end of the base 1. The support base 11 is elliptical, and in vertical projection, its major and minor axes increase from top to bottom. The support base 11 is hollow, and a horizontally arranged mounting plate 12 is provided at its bottom.

[0024] A bathing chamber 2 is provided at the upper end of the base 1. The bathing chamber 2 includes a bed 21 arranged horizontally at the lower end, with the four sides of the bed 21 protruding upwards. A bed board 22 is arranged horizontally inside the bed 21. A person lies flat on the bed board 22, with the head of the person located at one end of the bed board 22 and a gap between the person's feet and the other end of the bed board 22.

[0025] The bed frame 21 is covered with a cover plate 23, which is curved upwards. To facilitate getting in and out of the bed, the cover plate 23 consists of a fixed cover plate 231 and a sliding cover plate 232. The fixed cover plate 231 is located at the end of the bed frame 21 near the user's feet. The sliding cover plate 232 is located above the fixed cover plate 231, and its two ends are slidably connected to the bed frame 21. Its specific structure is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, linearly arranged sliding grooves 211 are provided on both sides of the bed body 21, and rollers 26 that engage with the sliding grooves 211 are installed at the lower end of the cover plate 23.

[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, the fixed cover plate 231 has an upwardly protruding first positioning strip 233 at its open end, and the movable cover plate 232 has a downwardly protruding second positioning strip 234 at its end near the foot of the human body. When the movable cover plate 232 slides towards the head of the human body, the second positioning strip 234 abuts against the first positioning strip 233, thereby limiting the movement of the movable cover plate 232; it also seals the connection between the fixed cover plate 231 and the movable cover plate 232.

[0027] The movable cover 232 has an opening at one end near the head of the human body and is covered with a cloth; the cloth contacts the neck of the human body and hangs down to the bed board 22, thereby forming a closed bath cavity between the fixed cover 231, the movable cover 232, the cloth and the bed 21.

[0028] A nozzle 4 extending upwards is installed on the bed board 22 at the foot of the user, with the outlet of the nozzle 4 facing the head. The lower end of the nozzle 4 extends into the inner cavity of the base 1. A nanoparticle bathing aid device 3 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 12 inside the base 1. In this embodiment, the nanoparticle bathing aid device 3 adopts the nano-water particle bathing aid device disclosed in Chinese Patent CN222425884U, which includes a nanoparticle generating component and a centrifugal fan. The nanoparticle generating component converts water into nano-water particles, and the centrifugal fan blows the nano-water particles outward from the outlet of the nanoparticle bathing aid device 3. The outlet of the nanoparticle bathing aid device 3 is connected to the inlet end of the nozzle 4 through a flexible hose, thereby allowing the nano-water particles to be sprayed into the bathing chamber.

[0029] A gap is provided between the two sides of the bed board 22 and the inner wall of the bed frame 21, forming a first groove 24 and a second groove 27 respectively. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a horizontally extending through hole 25 is provided on the inner wall of the first groove 24. A connecting pipe 221 is connected to the lower end of the bed board 22. One side of the upper end of the connecting pipe 221 is open, and this opening is connected to the through hole 25. Thus, the first groove 24, the through hole 25, and the inner hole of the connecting pipe 221 form a Z-shaped connecting hole 5. The upper end of the connecting hole 5 communicates with the bath cavity, and the lower end communicates with the inner cavity of the base 1. The lower end of the through hole 25 is higher than the bottom of the groove.

[0030] The inner side of the sliding groove 211 is provided with a through hole 212; the through hole 212 communicates the bath cavity and the sliding groove 211. The through hole 212 is located at one end of the sliding groove 211 close to the human foot. Since the nano water particles are easy to form condensate water when they touch the cover plate, which will cause discomfort to the human body, the setting of the through hole 212 makes the condensate water at the movable cover plate 232 flow into the groove from the through hole.

[0031] The bottom of the first groove 24 and the second groove 27 is provided with a connecting pipe 28; the upper end of the connecting pipe 28 communicates with the groove, and the lower end communicates with the sewage tank in the inner cavity of the base 1 through a pipeline. The upper end of the connecting pipe 28 is lower than the bed plate 22, which guides the condensate water in the groove into the sewage tank.

[0032] The bed body 21 is inclined upward away from the human body at one end of the human head, which provides a more friendly experience for patients with chronic diseases, especially for those with respiratory discomfort, which can reduce the chest pressure, keep the respiratory tract unobstructed, and use gravity to drain the secretions; for those with cardiovascular discomfort, it can reduce the amount of blood returning to the heart and reduce the load on the heart; for those with cervical spine discomfort, it can maintain the physiological curvature of the cervical spine, relax the neck muscles, and reduce the pressure on the intervertebral disc.

[0033] The inner cavity of the base 1, the nano particle bath assisting device 3, the spray pipe 4, the bath cavity and the connecting hole 5 constitute an annular channel, and the nano water circulates in the channel under the action of the centrifugal fan.

[0034] The bed plate 22 is connected with the bed body 21, and the connection part is relatively poor in sealing performance. The particle size of the nano water particles is small, so as to flow into the inner cavity of the base 1 from the connection part of the bed plate 22 and the bed body 21. In order to solve this problem, as shown in Figures 9-12 , the four sides of the bed plate 22 in the embodiment also extend outwardly and upwardly to form an integrally formed vertical connecting plate 222. The upper end of the vertical connecting plate 222 extends outwardly and integrally forms a horizontal connecting plate 223 arranged horizontally. The vertical connecting plate 222 and the bed plate 22 form a recessed first groove 24 and a second groove 27.

[0035] The sliding groove 211 is arranged on the horizontal connecting plate 223. As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the position where the horizontal connecting plate 223 is arranged with the sliding groove 211 forms a downwardly protruding rectangular protrusion 224, so that the thickness of the horizontal connecting plate 223 remains consistent. In addition, the four sides of the bed body 21 are provided with upwardly extending clamping edges 213, and the inner side of the clamping edge 213 is provided with upwardly extending support strips 214 at intervals. The lower end of the protrusion 224 abuts against the upper end of the support strip 214, and the outer side of the protrusion 224 is attached to the inner side of the clamping edge 213; the lower end surface of the horizontal connecting plate 223 located in the outer side area of the protrusion 224 abuts against the upper end surface of the clamping edge 213, so as to realize the clamping and fixing of the horizontal connecting plate 223 and the bed body 21.

[0036] The vertical connecting plate 222 at the head end of the human body also tilts upwards, and the horizontal connecting plate 223 connected to this part tilts downwards and conforms to the shape of the part corresponding to the bed 21 to achieve snap-fit ​​fixation.

[0037] Compared to existing technologies, the advantages of this embodiment are: 1. This invention adopts a supine design, allowing users to complete the bathing process without standing, effectively avoiding safety hazards such as falls and slips caused by muscle weakness, poor balance, or limited joint mobility. It is particularly suitable for disabled, semi-disabled individuals and post-operative rehabilitation patients, greatly reducing the safety risks associated with traditional showering methods. Users lie supine in the bath chamber 2, their bodies naturally relaxed, and the gentle spraying and circulation of nano-water particles reduces psychological tension and physical discomfort. This is especially suitable for elderly people who are bedridden, have limited mobility, or have a fear of bathing, significantly improving their quality of life and dignity. 2. The nano-particle bathing aid device 3 transforms water into mist-like nano-sized water particles, which have stronger permeability and diffusion, evenly covering the skin surface and penetrating deep into pores for gentle yet efficient cleaning. Simultaneously, the nano-water particles, heated by the nano-particle bathing aid device 3, carry a suitable temperature, continuously providing warm stimulation during circulation, promoting local blood circulation and muscle relaxation, thus combining cleansing and therapeutic functions. 3. The base 1, nanoparticle bathing device 3, and nozzle 4 form a ring channel with the bathing chamber. Combined with a centrifugal fan, the nanoparticles circulate within the system, achieving efficient water resource utilization and reducing waste. Simultaneously, the enclosed structure prevents heat loss and water vapor leakage, maintaining a dry and clean environment, and exhibiting excellent energy efficiency and environmental adaptability. 4. The mist-like nanoparticles replace traditional water for bathing therapy, without causing pressure on the body. This avoids the continuous pressure of water static pressure on the chest and abdomen, reduces the impact on venous return, prevents increased heart rate and blood pressure, and significantly reduces the risk of serious complications such as angina, syncope, or acute heart failure in patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases during bathing, thus improving the bathing safety of high-risk groups.

[0038] Example 2: The water source for the nano-water particles is a traditional Chinese medicine liquid, which can have therapeutic and health-preserving effects on the human body.

[0039] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of the present invention, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the inventive concept. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
