Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a multifunctional milk stasis treatment device. Background Art

[0002] Milk stasis is a common problem for many lactating women. It's caused by the inability of milk to flow out of the breasts, leading to breast tenderness and pain. This is usually due to poor milk drainage or blocked milk ducts. While early symptoms are mild, severe cases can lead to breast tenderness, lumps, and even mastitis.

[0003] Existing solutions include: using hot towels for hot compresses, massage, cleaning the surface covering of the nipple, using a breast pump or manual milking, etc. to promote milk discharge. These methods usually require selecting the appropriate method according to the specific situation, and it may take multiple attempts to find a solution that suits the individual. In addition, the services of some lactation consultants may lack standardization, and there are problems such as violent massage and excessive heat, which may cause damage to the mammary glands or aggravate inflammation. Therefore, how to cool or heat the user's chest to dredge the adhered, closed, and twisted milk ducts through the correct massage method is the technical problem to be solved by the present invention.

[0004] Patent document No. CN211485566U discloses a massage auxiliary device for lactation in pregnant women, including a milk collecting bottle. The upper end of the milk collecting bottle is screwed with a bottle cap, and the upper end of the bottle cap is fixedly connected to a telescopic hose. The utility model device can improve blood circulation and improve breast swelling by pushing and kneading the base of the chest by providing a massage cover. By providing a vibrator to generate ultrasonic vibration pulses to guide the flow of blood and milk in the breast, it can effectively improve the milk retention caused by blocked mammary ducts. By providing an anti-overflow ring, a suction cup and a limiting pad, it can locate the nipple position and guide the outflowing milk to be collected through an inner tube, effectively guiding and improving milk accumulation. It is clean and hygienic, reduces contact with air, and improves milk quality. By providing a suction pump and cooperating with the inner tube to simulate sucking, the accumulated milk is extracted, improving the comfort of the pregnant woman. The utility model device has outstanding effects, can be recycled, is low in cost, and can quickly improve the milk retention phenomenon of pregnant women. However, the patent's drawbacks are that its operation is overly complex, involving the coordination of various vibrators and suction pumps. Using the device relies heavily on the user's skill and experience, making it rather cumbersome. The patent uses a suction pump for direct suction and lacks the ability to use hot or cold compresses to relieve breast pain, which can easily cause breast pain and discomfort. Furthermore, the ultrasonic vibration method results in a relatively high cost for the device, and it targets fewer acupuncture points on the chest.

[0005] Patent document with publication number CN206760789U discloses a massage and lactation-promoting bra, which includes two bras. A circular gasket is adhered to the middle position of the inner side of each bra, and several circular massage blocks are provided on the circular gasket. A miniature rotary motor is provided in the middle of each circular massage block, and several massage balls are connected to the peripheral side of the output end of the miniature rotary motor. The lactation-promoting bra massages the breasts through the massage balls, thereby achieving the purpose of clearing the mammary ducts and reducing milk accumulation.

[0006] Patent document with publication number CN214859050U discloses an electric breast massage and lactation-inducing device, which includes a main body, a massage head is provided at one end of the main body, a vibration device is provided inside the main body, the vibration device is connected to the massage head, and the massage head has massage beads. During use, the breast massage and lactation-inducing device can achieve precise massage of the breast milk ducts, thereby achieving the purposes of stimulating the blood vessels, unblocking the milk ducts, and removing blood stasis and dispersing nodules.

[0007] Patent document CN117398537A discloses a breast pump for collecting breast milk from the breast into a milk storage container. The breast pump includes a negative pressure system, a power supply system, a milk storage container, a breast shield, and a therapy module. The negative pressure system can directly or indirectly apply negative pressure to the breast shield; the power supply system can power the vibration module or the negative pressure system; the milk storage container can store breast milk collected from the nipple channel; the breast shield includes a nipple channel for accommodating the nipple and a flared flange that conforms to the breast; the therapy module can provide therapy to the breast; the therapy module is electrically connected to the power supply system; and the therapy module is detachable, separable, or removable from the breast shield. This technical solution provides a breast pump with a detachable, separable, or removable therapy module, thereby improving the user experience of the breast pump. However, this patent lacks a simulation process for manual milk expression and does not include the ability to apply hot or cold compresses if the user experiences discomfort.

[0008] In addition, on the one hand, due to differences in understanding among those skilled in the art; on the other hand, because the inventor studied a large number of documents and patents when making this utility model, but due to space limitations, not all details and contents are listed in detail. However, this does not mean that the utility model does not have the characteristics of these prior arts. On the contrary, the utility model already has all the characteristics of the prior art, and the applicant reserves the right to add relevant prior art to the background technology. Utility Model Content

[0009] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a multifunctional milk stasis treatment device comprising a first housing and a massage layer. The multifunctional milk stasis treatment device also includes a medication layer and a thermal care layer. The medication layer is disposed on the side of the first housing that contacts the user's skin and is used to secure a patch containing a medication solution. The thermal care layer is disposed between the massage layer and the medication layer and comprises a thermal medium, a cooling plate, and a heating plate. The cooling plate and the heating plate are in surface contact with the thermal medium. When a hot compress is required and the heating plate is switched on, the heating plate activates and increases the temperature of the thermal medium to achieve a hot compress. When a cold compress is required and the cooling plate is switched on, the cooling plate activates and decreases the temperature of the thermal medium to achieve a cold compress. The present invention enables application of a hot or cold compress to the user's breasts before, during, or after milk letdown via the thermal care layer. A hot compress dilates the user's milk ducts, facilitating milk discharge, while a cold compress helps constrict blood vessels and reduce swelling. Compared with traditional manual massage or other dredging methods, the therapeutic device of the present invention can more effectively prevent and solve the problem of milk blockage and reduce the risk of mastitis.

[0010] According to a preferred embodiment, the massage layer includes a second shell. The second shell is provided with a number of rotors corresponding to the positions of the user's chest acupuncture points. At least one rotor is provided on the second shell and its position corresponds to the Tanzhong acupoint on the user's chest; at least two rotors are provided on the second shell and its position corresponds to the Tianchi acupoint on the user's chest; at least two rotors are provided on the second shell and its position corresponds to the Rugen acupoint on the user's chest; at least two rotors are provided on the second shell and its position corresponds to the Yuanxi acupoint on the user's chest. The utility model simulates massage techniques such as tapping, pressing, kneading, and holding by cooperating with massage balls and motors, so as to open the user's adhered, closed, and twisted milk ducts, achieve patency of the milk ducts, and prevent the occurrence of postpartum breast pain, milk loss, breast lumps, mastitis, and the like.

[0011] According to a preferred embodiment, the thermal care layer includes a third shell. A thermal medium is arranged on the third shell in an annular structure that avoids the user's nipple and areola. The thermal medium is arranged on the third shell in such a way that it covers several rotors located on the second shell, corresponding to the Tianchi and Rugen acupoints on the user's chest, and is staggered with the rotors. This thermal medium avoids some of the rotors, ensuring coverage of the user's chest while avoiding overstimulation of sensitive areas.

[0012] According to a preferred embodiment, the cooling and heating fins are in surface contact with the temperature-sensing medium and are positioned on the side of the temperature-sensing medium facing away from the user's skin. The cooling and heating fins are positioned between the temperature-sensing medium and the third housing, avoiding the positions of the rotors on the second housing. By ensuring surface contact between the cooling and heating fins and the temperature-sensing medium, this utility model utilizes heat and cold as benign stimuli to achieve functions such as heating and cooling the user's breasts, thereby providing local analgesia, anti-inflammatory, and swelling-reducing effects.

[0013] According to a preferred embodiment, the patch is positioned on the medication layer in a manner corresponding to the position of the heating plate. When the heating plate is turned on, the heating plate activates and increases the temperature of the patch to achieve a hot compress effect with the medicinal liquid. The patch of the utility model also corresponds to the heating plate, allowing the hot compress to cooperate with the medicinal liquid compress, and the hot compress with the medicinal liquid promotes the action of the medicine and improves its efficiency.

[0014] According to a preferred embodiment, the first housing is provided with at least two ports for connecting to external milk storage bags, located at locations corresponding to the user's nipples and areola. These ports are connected to the milk storage bags via hollow conduits. To facilitate milk collection, the first housing is provided with ports at locations corresponding to the user's nipples and areola. This design allows the user to conveniently collect milk during treatment, preventing milk spillage or waste.

[0015] According to a preferred embodiment, the hollow conduit is connected to the interface in a bell-mouthed manner, and a one-way valve is provided at the connection between the hollow conduit and the milk storage bag to prevent milk backflow. The one-way valve ensures a one-way flow of milk, reducing the possibility of milk stasis.

[0016] According to a preferred embodiment, the multifunctional milk stasis treatment device further includes a seal that can be connected to the interface to seal the interface after the hollow catheter and milk storage bag are removed. Thus, when the user does not need to express milk, the seal can be used to seal the interface, allowing the treatment device to be worn normally. This treatment device provides immediate unblocking effects, avoiding the unnecessary pain and anxiety caused by milk blockage and saving valuable time.

[0017] According to a preferred embodiment, a massage element designed to mimic a human hand is located on the second housing, corresponding to the Rugen acupoint on the user's chest. At least one rotor is positioned within the massage element. This design simulates the massage effect of a human hand, further enhancing the therapeutic effect of milk stasis. The massage element is preferably designed to mimic the base of a human hand, i.e., a C-shaped design. This massage element simulates the method of manual milk discharge, preventing milk blockage caused by milk stasis.

[0018] According to a preferred embodiment, the massage element comprises a first curved surface structure and a second curved surface structure. The first curved surface structure is located at the vertically upper end of the second curved surface structure, and the diameter of the circle corresponding to the first curved surface structure is larger than the diameter of the circle corresponding to the second curved surface structure, thus forming a crescent-shaped massage element. The massage element, composed of the first and second curved surface structures, mates with a human hand in the following position: the thumb and index finger are spread out in an "eight" shape, with the palm facing upward. This simulates the principle of milk ejection by the human hand, achieving a massage effect that simulates a human hand, further enhancing the therapeutic effect of milk stasis.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following is a detailed description with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] The present application relates to a multifunctional milk stasis treatment device, such as Figure 2 As shown, it includes a first shell 100 and a massage layer 200. Figure 1As shown, the first shell 100 is provided with at least two shoulder straps, so that when the user wears the first shell 100, the two shoulder straps can secure the first shell 100 to the user. Cuffs are provided on both sides of the first shell 100 to accommodate the user's arms. As a result, the first shell 100 can be used as a vest-like fabric or hard shell worn by the user to accommodate the massage layer 200. The wearable clothing design of the first shell 100 can reduce the user's discomfort and avoid the pressure caused by strap-like fixing methods.

[0027] Preferably, if Figure 1 As shown, to facilitate milk collection for the user, the first housing 100 is provided with an interface 101 at a position corresponding to the user's nipple and areola for connecting an external milk storage bag 102. The interface 101 is connected to the milk storage bag 102 via a hollow conduit 104. The interface can be a flange interface, thereby achieving a sealed connection with the hollow conduit 104. This design allows the user to conveniently collect milk during treatment, avoiding milk spillage or waste. Preferably, the hollow conduit 104 is connected to the interface 101 in the form of a bell mouth, and a one-way valve is provided at the connection between the hollow conduit 104 and the milk storage bag 102 to prevent milk backflow.

[0028] It should be noted that the present invention can complete milk collection by non-negative pressure suction, but it does not mean that milk cannot be sucked out by setting a negative pressure device. Preferably, the negative pressure device is connected to the hollow catheter 104 to transmit negative pressure to the bell mouth of the hollow catheter 104. A breast pump can be set at the bell mouth to perform a high-frequency, low-intensity short-burst massage mode on the user's nipple, simulating a baby sucking the mother's areola, stimulating the milk ejection reflex, and then switching to a high-intensity medium-frequency negative pressure milk suction mode to efficiently suck out milk. The negative pressure device is, for example, a suction pump. The suction side of the suction pump is connected to the hollow catheter 104 to suck the user's chest.

[0029] According to a preferred embodiment, the multifunctional milk stasis treatment device further includes a seal 103. The seal 103 can be connected to the interface 101. The seal 103 is used to seal the interface 101 after the hollow tube 104 and the milk storage bag 102 are removed. The seal 103 is, for example, a cap threadedly connected to the interface 101 and made of a hard material. Thus, when the user does not need to express milk, the seal 103 can seal the interface 101, allowing the treatment device to be worn normally.

[0030] According to a preferred embodiment, Figure 2As shown, the massage layer 200 is disposed inside the first housing 100 for contacting the user's skin. The massage layer 200 includes a second housing 201. The second housing 201 is provided with a plurality of rotors 202 corresponding to the positions of the user's chest acupuncture points.

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, in the present invention, the plurality of rotors 202 includes a first rotor 210 , a second rotor 220 , a third rotor 230 , a fourth rotor 240 , a fifth rotor 250 , a sixth rotor 260 and a seventh rotor 270 .

[0032] Preferably, the first rotor 210 is disposed on the second housing 201, and its position corresponds to the Tanzhong point on the user's chest. Tanzhong is the midpoint between the anterior midline and the line connecting the two nipples. Therefore, the first rotor 210 is disposed at the midpoint of the line connecting the through-holes 204 of the second housing 201 corresponding to the interface 101.

[0033] Preferably, the second rotor 220 and the third rotor 230 are respectively disposed on the second housing 201. The positions of the second rotor 220 and the third rotor 230 correspond to the Tianchi acupoints on the user's left and right chests, respectively. The Tianchi acupoint is located in the fourth intercostal space, one cun outside the nipple, and five cun lateral to the anterior midline. Therefore, the second rotor 220 is positioned one cun to the left of the through-hole 204 on the left chest of the second housing 201. The third rotor 230 is positioned one cun to the right of the through-hole 204 on the right chest of the second housing 201. One cun is equal to 3.33 centimeters.

[0034] Preferably, the fourth rotor 240 and the fifth rotor 250 are respectively disposed on the second housing 201. The positions of the fourth rotor 240 and the fifth rotor 250 correspond to the Rugen acupoints on the left and right breasts of the user, respectively. The Rugen acupoint is located at the base of the breast, in the fifth intercostal space, four inches from the anterior midline. Therefore, the fourth rotor 240 is disposed vertically below the through-hole 204 on the left breast of the second housing 201, and is located four inches from the line of symmetry of the second housing 201. The fifth rotor 250 is disposed vertically below the through-hole 204 on the right breast of the second housing 201, and is located four inches from the line of symmetry of the second housing 201.

[0035] Preferably, the sixth rotor 260 and the seventh rotor 270 are respectively arranged on the second shell 201. The positions of the sixth rotor 260 and the seventh rotor 270 correspond to the positions of the Yuanxi acupoints on the left and right chests of the user, respectively. The Yuanxi acupoint is located on the mid-axillary line, three inches below the axilla, in the fourth intercostal space. Therefore, the sixth rotor 260 is arranged near the left edge of the left chest of the second shell 201, and is located three inches vertically below the position of the second shell 201 corresponding to the user's axilla. The seventh rotor 270 is arranged near the right edge of the right chest of the second shell 201, and is located three inches vertically below the position of the second shell 201 corresponding to the user's axilla. The seven rotors 202 are respectively located at the Tanzhong acupoint, Tianchi acupoint, Rugen acupoint, and Yuanxi acupoint, which improve breast blood circulation and dredge milk ducts by massaging the acupoints.

[0036] Preferably, the rotors 202 can be composed of a motor and massage balls. The massage balls are combined into an outer ring of balls connected to the motor output shaft, which rotates under the rotation of the motor to massage the user's chest. The motor can be a DC motor or a stepper motor for generating rotational motion. The rotation of the outer ring of balls can be controlled by adjusting the speed and direction to simulate different massage techniques, such as pressing and kneading. The massage balls are made of a hard material (such as metal or hard plastic) with a smooth surface to reduce pain during massage. For example, the massage balls can be integrated into a base turntable connected to the motor output shaft to form an outer ring of balls that circumscribes the base turntable. For another example, at least one massage ball with a larger diameter can be eccentrically positioned on the base turntable so that when the motor output shaft drives the base turntable to rotate, the massage balls can roll around the center of the base turntable.

[0037] The contact between the rotors 202 and the user can simulate the rolling motion of a masseur's fingers. The rotors 202 can be connected to the power supply assembly in the second housing 201 or to an external power source to realize motor-driven rotor 202. The present invention uses massage balls and a motor to simulate massage techniques such as tapping, pressing, kneading, and holding. This allows the user's previously adhered, closed, or twisted milk ducts to open, achieving unobstructed milk ducts and preventing postpartum breast pain, milk loss, breast lumps, mastitis, and other conditions. Thus, the rotors 202 in the present invention can simulate the rolling motion of a masseur's fingers, and the massage positions correspond to the meridian dredging acupuncture points in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

[0038] The design of the massage layer 200 allows for precise massage of the user's chest acupuncture points, promoting milk discharge and alleviating the symptoms of milk stasis. The present invention achieves breast treatment through massage, avoiding the pain experienced by the user due to conventional techniques of using negative pressure suction to discharge milk. This ensures that no additional damage is caused to the breasts during treatment, reduces discomfort during use, and avoids damage to the breasts due to improper operation.

[0039] Furthermore, multiple massage shells can be provided on the rotors 202. These massage shells can be in the shape of dots, rods, claws, or other massage shapes. Thus, when the rotors 202 rotate, they can drive the massage shells of different shapes to rotate synchronously, further stimulating the user's breasts and improving milk ejection efficiency.

[0040] According to a preferred embodiment, the multifunctional milk stasis treatment device further includes a medication layer 300 and a thermal care layer 400. The thermal care layer 400 includes a third shell 401. A thermal medium 410 is disposed on the third shell 401 of the thermal care layer 400. The thermal medium 410 is disposed in an annular structure that avoids the nipple and areola of the user. The thermal medium 410 covers the locations of the rotors 202 located on the second shell 201 and corresponding to the Tianchi and Rugen acupoints on the user's chest. In this way, the thermal medium 410 is offset from some of the rotors 202.

[0041] Specifically, the temperature-sensitive medium 410 can cover the positions of the second rotor 220, the third rotor 230, the fourth rotor 240 and the fifth rotor 250 on the third shell 401, and the temperature-sensitive medium 410 avoids the positions of the first rotor 210, the sixth rotor 260 and the seventh rotor 270 on the third shell 401. As a result, the temperature-sensitive medium 410 and part of the rotor 202 are staggered, thereby avoiding damage to the temperature-sensitive medium 410 by excessive massage frequency. At the same time, the method of partially covering the rotor 202 can also alleviate the pain that may occur after the user's Tianchi acupoint and Rugen acupoint are stimulated through temperature regulation of the temperature-sensitive medium 410. The temperature-sensitive medium 410 can be a water bag layer. The temperature-sensitive medium 410 is arranged in an annular structure on the third shell 401 of the temperature-sensitive care layer 400, avoiding the nipple and areola area of ​​the user. This design not only ensures the therapeutic effect, but also avoids stimulation of sensitive areas.

[0042] According to a preferred embodiment, the temperature-sensing care layer 400 is arranged between the massage layer 200 and the medicine compress layer 300, and includes a temperature-sensing medium 410, a cooling plate 420 and a heating plate 430. The cooling plate 420 and the heating plate 430 are in surface contact with the temperature-sensing medium 410 and are arranged on the side of the temperature-sensing medium 410 away from the user's skin. The cooling plate 420 and the heating plate 430 are arranged between the temperature-sensing medium 410 and the third shell 401. The positions of the cooling plate 420 and the heating plate 430 avoid the positions of several rotors 202 on the second shell 201 corresponding to the temperature-sensing medium 410. Furthermore, at least two heating plates 430 can be respectively arranged at a position of 6 to 12 cm vertically on the third shell 401 corresponding to the left and right nipple areas of the user's chest. At least two cooling plates 420 can be respectively arranged at a position of 6 to 12 cm on the inner side of the third shell 401 corresponding to the nipple areas of the user's chest. For example, a cooling fin 420 is positioned 6 to 12 cm above and to the right of the left nipple area of ​​the third housing 401. A cooling fin 420 is positioned 6 to 12 cm above and to the left of the right nipple area of ​​the third housing 401. Preferably, the left chest refers to the left side of the human body. The right chest refers to the right side of the human body.

[0043] As a result, the heating fins 430 and cooling fins 420 contact the temperature-sensitive medium 410 while avoiding the positions of the rotors 202 on the second housing 201, preventing damage to the heating fins 430 and cooling fins 420 caused by the rotation or vibration of the rotors 202. The cooling fins 420 utilize semiconductor temperature differential cooling technology for cooling, resulting in a compact and lightweight design. The heating fins 430 utilize graphene for heating, ensuring safety and controllability.

[0044] When a hot compress is required and the switch of the heating plate 430 is turned on, the heating plate 430 is started and the temperature of the temperature-sensitive medium 410 is increased to achieve a hot compress effect. When a cold compress is required and the switch of the cooling plate 420 is turned on, the cooling plate 420 is started and the temperature of the temperature-sensitive medium 410 is decreased to achieve a cold compress effect. The cooling plate 420 and the heating plate 430 are in surface contact with the temperature-sensitive medium 410 respectively. By controlling the switches of the cooling plate 420 and the heating plate 430, the temperature of the temperature-sensitive medium 410 can be adjusted to achieve a cold compress or a hot compress effect. As benign stimuli, hot and cold have certain beneficial effects on the skin, muscle system, and tissue circulatory system. For example, hot and cold stimulation can reduce the sensitivity of local nerve endings and produce a local analgesic effect; hot and cold stimulation can also enhance the body's immune function, thereby achieving the purpose of anti-inflammatory, swelling reduction, antispasmodic and analgesic; in conjunction with the application of medicine, the hot compress of the liquid medicine promotes the action of the medicine and improves the efficiency of the medicine. This design enables the device to adjust the temperature according to different treatment needs and improve the treatment effect. The present invention can achieve functions such as heating and cooling the user's breasts through the provision of the temperature-sensing nursing layer 400, thereby reducing manual intervention and lowering operational difficulty.

[0045] Therefore, the temperature adjustment of the therapeutic device of the present invention is controllable, usually at 36±2°C (hot compress does not exceed 50 degrees), and is suitable for cold and hot therapies. Preferably, the cooling plate 420 is a semiconductor cooling plate. When direct current passes through a galvanic couple formed by two different semiconductor materials in series, heat can be absorbed and released at both ends of the galvanic couple respectively, and the purpose of cooling can be achieved. Semiconductor cooling plates have high efficiency and low energy consumption when converting electrical energy into cold energy, and can quickly reduce the temperature and provide users with an immediate cooling effect. Preferably, the heating plate 430 is a graphene heating plate. The working principle of the graphene heating plate is based on the electrothermal effect of graphene. When current passes through the graphene material, due to the high conductivity of graphene, electrical energy will be quickly converted into thermal energy. This electrothermal conversion effect can convert electrical energy into heat, thereby producing a heating effect. The advantages of graphene heating sheets include: extremely high electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, which can quickly convert electrical energy into thermal energy and improve energy utilization efficiency; uniform heat dissipation, which makes the human body feel more comfortable; fast heating speed, which can quickly provide warmth to the human body.

[0046] According to a preferred embodiment, the medicine compress layer 300 is arranged on the side of the first shell 100 that contacts the user's skin, and is used to fix the patch 301 containing the medicinal liquid. The medicine compress layer 300 is a fan-shaped sheet structure made of skin-friendly material that is in direct contact with the patient's skin. The medicine compress layer 300 can also be made of textiles. The side of the patch 301 that contacts the medicine compress layer 300 is provided with an adhesive that can adhere to the medicine compress layer 300. The patch 301 can act directly on the skin and exert its medicinal effect through skin absorption. The design of the medicine compress layer takes into account the fixation of the patch 301 and the convenience of replacement. The patch 301 is arranged in a manner corresponding to the position of the heating plate 430. When the switch of the heating plate 430 is turned on, the heating plate 430 starts and causes the temperature of the patch 301 to rise to achieve the hot compress effect of the medicinal liquid. The design of the medicine compress layer 300 enables the medicine liquid to act directly on the skin, exert its medicinal effect through skin absorption, enhance the therapeutic effect, and the corresponding setting with the heating plate 430 can achieve the effect of hot compress of the medicine liquid.

[0047] This wearable therapeutic device offers excellent convenience. It comprises an outer massage layer 200, an inner compress layer 300, and a middle warming layer 400. Combining multiple functions, such as massage, hot and cold therapy, compresses, and breastfeeding, it meets the needs of postpartum women at a relatively low cost. Furthermore, the combination of these functions improves the efficiency of breast dredging and breastfeeding. The hot and cold compress temperature, duration, massage intensity, and massage mode are easily adjustable.

[0048] For ease of understanding, the working principle and usage method of the multifunctional milk stasis treatment device of the present invention are discussed.

[0049] Before or during a massage using the therapeutic device, the user can activate the cooling plate 420 or heating plate 430 to apply a cold or hot compress to the breasts to reduce nerve ending sensitivity and produce a localized analgesic effect. The user can also apply the patch 301 to the medicated area of ​​the medicated layer 300. After completing the cold, hot, and / or medicated compress, the user can access the milk storage bag 102 through the hollow conduit 104 via the interface 101 on the first housing 100 and activate the multiple rotors 202 in the massage layer 200. The user can control the massage mode of the multiple rotors 202, such as vibration, rotation, or hand-like massage, to promote blood circulation and unclog the milk ducts. This allows the user's accumulated milk to enter the milk storage bag 102 through the hollow conduit 104. Furthermore, the hollow conduit 104 can also be equipped with a negative pressure device to suction and expel the accumulated milk in the user's breasts while the massage layer 200 is massaging.

[0050] Example 2

[0051] This embodiment is a further supplement to the above embodiment, and repeated contents will not be repeated here.

[0052] According to a preferred embodiment, a massage element 203 is further provided on the second housing 201 at a location corresponding to the user's breast acupoints (rugen acupoints) on the chest, designed to mimic the base of a human hand. The fourth rotor 240 and the fifth rotor 250 can be respectively disposed within at least two massage elements 203 located on the left and right breasts of the second housing 201. Preferably, the massage element 203 comprises a first curved surface structure 205 and a second curved surface structure 206. The ends of the first curved surface structure 205 are connected to the ends of the second curved surface structure 206 to form a C-shaped massage element 203 that mimics the base of a human hand. The curvature of the first and second curved surface structures 205, 206, can correspond to the curvature of the base of a breast on a normal human chest. The first curved surface structure 205 is located at the vertically upper end of the second curved surface structure 206, and the diameter of the circle corresponding to the first curved surface structure 205 is larger than the diameter of the circle corresponding to the second curved surface structure 206, thereby forming a crescent-shaped massage element 203. The first and second curved structures 205, 206 can be made of silicone, and house the fourth rotor 240 or the fifth rotor 250 within the space formed by the first and second curved structures 205, 206. Furthermore, the first and second curved structures 205, 206 are disposed on the second housing 201, and a thin film seal forms a space for accommodating the fourth rotor 240 or the fifth rotor 250. That is, the film seal caps the space between the first and second curved structures 205, 206, creating a sealed space for accommodating the fourth rotor 240 or the fifth rotor 250. When the fourth rotor 240 or the fifth rotor 250 rotates, the first and second curved structures 205, 206 can transmit force and apply pressure to the user's chest.

[0053] Therefore, the massage element 203 composed of the first curved surface structure 205 and the second curved surface structure 206 matches the human hand when it is in the following state: the thumb and index finger are spread out to form an "eight" shape, and the palm of the hand is facing upward.

[0054] The massage element 203 of the present invention is designed to imitate the base of a human hand, i.e., a C-shaped imitation base of a human hand. The massage element 203 simulates the milk discharge principle of a human hand, achieves a massage effect similar to a human hand, further improves the treatment effect of milk stasis, and avoids milk blockage caused by milk stasis.
