Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of adjuvant treatment equipment for benign prostatic hyperplasia, and in particular to a home-use prostate phototherapy device. Background Technology

[0002] Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease among men, and its severity generally increases with age and disease progression, requiring continuous intervention. Current treatments often involve applying specific wavelengths of composite light to the perineum for adjunctive therapy. However, BPH primarily affects the elderly, who often have limited mobility, and the treatment site is a private area, making regular hospital visits undesirable. Therefore, some convenient home-use BPH treatment devices have been designed. For example, Chinese Patent Application No. 201020260921.9 discloses a prostate red light irradiator, which includes a housing, an arc-shaped cover on the housing, a circuit board inside the housing, and LED light-emitting tubes on the circuit board. The housing and arc-shaped cover have corresponding grooves on their sides and one corresponding end. The irradiation panel of the housing has irradiation holes, and the LED light-emitting tubes are housed within these holes. A power cord outlet is located at the top of the arc-shaped cover. The LEDs in this device continuously generate heat during operation, causing the casing temperature to rise and potentially scalding the patient. Furthermore, the device requires the patient to hold it with their legs during treatment, which typically lasts 30 minutes, leading to patient fatigue. Additionally, the device requires an external power source, limiting its usability. Therefore, a home-use prostate phototherapy device is needed, incorporating an internal lithium battery to power the entire device, an internal air duct and heat dissipation system to prevent overheating, and a support block for adjusting the tilt angle. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes a home-use prostate phototherapy device, which is equipped with a lithium battery to power the entire device, and also features an internal air duct and heat dissipation device to prevent overheating. Additionally, a support block is installed on the device for adjusting the tilt angle.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model proposes a home-use prostate phototherapy device, comprising: a shell assembly, a light-emitting component, a heat dissipation component, a power supply component, and a main control module.

The second housing is provided with a mounting ear on one side, and a replaceable support block is provided on the mounting ear.

[0008] Furthermore, the support block comes in multiple sizes, with different sizes having different heights.

[0009] Furthermore, the light-emitting component includes a light guide sheet, a high-energy spectral lamp core, and a reflector. The high-energy spectral lamp core is connected to the reflector, the reflector is connected to the light guide sheet, and the outer periphery of the light guide sheet is snapped into a protective cover.

[0010] Furthermore, the heat dissipation component includes a heat sink and a fan. One side of the heat sink is in close contact with one side of the high-energy spectral lamp core, and the fan is installed on the other side of the heat sink. The heat sink is provided with multiple heat dissipation ribs.

[0011] Furthermore, the air inlet is located on the bottom cover, and the air outlet is located on the outer periphery of one side of the first housing and the second housing, with the air outlets distributed in a ring around the outer periphery of the heat sink.

[0012] Furthermore, a temperature sensor is provided on the heat sink, the outer wall of the temperature sensor is tightly fitted with the heat sink fins, and the temperature sensor is electrically connected to the main control module.

[0013] Furthermore, the power supply assembly includes a battery and a charging control board.

[0014] Furthermore, the main control module includes a PCB board, on which a control chip, a memory chip, a tactile switch, and a display screen are provided.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By installing a battery in the outer casing for power supply, no external power cord is required, which improves the flexibility of the entire phototherapy device.

Therefore, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the stated features.

If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a home-use prostate phototherapy device, including: a shell assembly 1, a light-emitting component 2, a heat dissipation component 3, a power supply component 4, and a main control module 5. The light-emitting component 2 is installed on one side of the shell assembly 1, and the heat dissipation component 3 is tightly fitted to the light-emitting component 2. The power supply component 4 and the main control module 5 are both installed inside the shell assembly 1, and the light-emitting component 2, the heat dissipation component 3, and the power supply component 4 are all electrically connected to the main control module 5. The shell assembly 1 is provided with an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102, and the air outlet direction of the heat dissipation component 3 is facing the air outlet 102.

[0028] The therapeutic device described in this application is a physical therapy medical device suitable for adjunctive treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. The phototherapy device primarily uses a high-energy spectral lamp core in its light-emitting component as its core component. The main control module controls the output light power intensity and treatment time. The working principle of the phototherapy device is as follows: a power adapter provides DC 5.0V to charge the battery 401 built into the outer casing component 1. The battery 401 then provides DC 7.4V to drive the high-energy spectral lamp core, causing it to generate a composite spectral wave composed of red and near-infrared light with wavelengths ranging from 590.0nm to 831.0nm. This light is output in the form of an elliptical spot and is directed at the perineum area of ​​the human body for irradiation. The photon energy is transmitted through the body surface to the human tissue, producing a biological effect and thus achieving a therapeutic effect.

[0029] The main control module 5, through a combination of hardware and software, enables low-power and high-power modes, controlling the irradiation intensity and duration of the high-energy spectral lamp core to meet different treatment needs.

[0030] The operating steps for the phototherapy device described in this application.

[0031] 1. Take out the fully charged phototherapy device.

[0032] 2. Press the "On / Off" button for 2 seconds to turn on the device. The display shows that the default treatment time is 30 minutes.

[0033] 3. First, put on protective glasses. Then, press the "Low" button once to display the low light intensity. Point the light output window of the treatment device at the perineum (the midpoint of the line connecting the base of the scrotum and the anus). Then, press the "On / Off" button once to turn on the low-mode spectral wave output and start the treatment time countdown. Press the "On / Off" button once again to pause the low-mode spectral wave output.

[0034] 4. Alternatively, press the "High Power" button once to display the high power light intensity, point the light output window of the treatment device at the perineum, and then press the "On / Off" button once to turn on the high power mode spectral wave output of the main unit, and the treatment time will start counting down at the same time; press the "On / Off" button once again to pause the high power mode spectral wave output of the main unit.

[0035] 5. During treatment, if the light-emitting window is too low and cannot be aligned with the perineum, a support block 110 with a height of 10mm or 20mm can be selected to support the light-emitting end of the outer shell assembly 1, thereby adjusting the position of the light-emitting window.

[0036] 6. The light irradiation distance is generally 0-10cm, ideally providing a gentle and comfortable sensation on the affected area. The closer the distance, the stronger the irradiation energy. Irradiate 1-2 times daily. For the first use, the recommended irradiation time is 10-20 minutes, followed by 20-30 minutes per session. Please consult your doctor for any special circumstances. While the light therapy device can directly contact the skin, caution should be exercised to prevent the risk of low-temperature burns from prolonged direct skin contact.

[0037] 7. After treatment is completed or when leaving the room, press and hold the "Switch" button for 2 seconds to turn off the power.

[0038] If the temperature sensor 303 detects a temperature exceeding 60°C during operation, the phototherapy device will activate its overheat protection device and stop working. It will only be able to work normally after the temperature returns to normal and it is restarted.

[0039] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 7 As shown, the outer casing assembly 1 includes a first housing 103, a second housing 104, a bottom cover 105, and a protective cover 106. The first housing 103 and the second housing 104 form a cylindrical cavity structure. The bottom cover 105 and the protective cover 106 are respectively installed on both sides of the cylindrical cavity structure. The first housing 103 and the second housing 104 provide installation positions for each component and form an airflow channel inside the outer casing assembly 1 so that when the light-emitting component 2 is working, the heat dissipation component 3 can reduce the temperature of the light-emitting component 2 by air cooling.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, the first housing 103 and the second housing 104 are provided with mounting grooves 107 on both sides. The mounting grooves 107 are provided with silicone anti-slip blocks 108, which can improve the grip and increase the friction for easy holding. The second housing 104 is provided with a mounting ear 109 on one side. The mounting ear 109 is provided with a replaceable support block 110. The mounting side of the light-emitting component 2 is lifted by the support block 110, thereby adjusting the pitch angle of the phototherapy device so that the light spot emitted by the high-energy spectrum lamp core 202 irradiates the perineum of the patient to achieve the therapeutic effect.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the support block 110 has multiple specifications, and the support blocks 110 of different specifications have different heights, so as to adjust the irradiation angle of the phototherapy device according to different usage scenarios and the patient's body shape, so that the light spot emitted by the light-emitting component 2 can irradiate the acupoint.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 7As shown, the light-emitting component 2 includes a light guide 201, a high-energy spectral lamp core 202, and a reflector 203. The high-energy spectral lamp core 202 is connected to the reflector 203, and the reflector 203 is connected to the light guide 201. The outer periphery of the light guide 201 is snapped into the protective cover 106, so that the high-energy spectral lamp core generates a composite spectral wave composed of red light and near-infrared light with wavelengths of 590.0nm to 831.0nm. Then, the light is adjusted by the reflector 203 and the light guide 201 so that the light-emitting component 2 outputs light in the form of an elliptical spot. By acting on the perineum of the human body, the photon energy is transmitted to the human tissue through the human body surface to produce a biological effect, thereby achieving a therapeutic effect.

[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 7 As shown, the heat dissipation component 3 includes a heat sink 301 and a fan 302. One side of the heat sink 301 is in close contact with one side of the high-energy spectral lamp core 202, and the fan 302 is installed on the other side of the heat sink 301. The heat sink 301 is provided with multiple heat dissipation ribs. The heat generated by the high-energy spectral lamp core 202 during operation is transferred to the heat sink 301, and the airflow is made by the fan 302 to flow through the heat sink 301, carrying away the heat of the heat sink. The hot air after heat exchange is discharged through the air outlet 102 to achieve the purpose of cooling. This avoids the problem of the high-energy spectral lamp core being too hot, which would lead to a reduction in lifespan and the risk of burns to patients. The heat dissipation ribs can increase the heat exchange area of ​​the heat sink 301 so that the heat sink 301 can exchange heat with the air more fully and improve the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the air inlet 101 is provided on the bottom cover 105, and the air outlet 102 is provided on the outer periphery of one side of the first housing 103 and the second housing 104. The air outlet 102 is distributed in a ring around the outer periphery of the heat sink 301. Under the action of the fan, the airflow flows from the air inlet 101 to the air outlet 102. After heat exchange, the air flows out from the air outlet 102, so that the airflow flows in an orderly manner and achieves the purpose of air cooling.

[0045] Preferably, a temperature sensor 303 is provided on the heat sink 301. The outer wall of the temperature sensor 303 is tightly fitted with the heat sink fins. The temperature sensor 303 is electrically connected to the main control module 5. The temperature sensor 303 can detect the temperature of the heat sink 301 to provide overheat protection. Under normal operating conditions, if the temperature sensor 303 detects that the temperature of the heat sink 301 reaches the threshold of 60°C, the software will activate the alarm device, and the LCD screen will display a "high temperature warning" symbol accompanied by a "beep" sound. At the same time, the power supply to the therapy device will be cut off and the device will be turned off within 5 seconds, and the shutdown will not be self-recovering to avoid overheating, protect the high-energy spectrum lamp core 202, and prevent burns to the patient.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 5As shown, the power supply assembly 4 includes a battery 401 and a charging control board 402. The battery 401 is mounted on the inner side of the second housing 104 via a battery fixing plate 403, and a buffer foam 404 is provided between the battery 401 and the inner wall of the second housing 104. The charging control board 402 is provided with a charging interface and is mounted on the bottom cover 105. The second housing 104 has a through hole in the middle, through which the charging interface is connected to the outside. The battery 401 and the charging control board 402 are electrically connected to the main control module 5. The battery 401 supplies power to the entire phototherapy device, and no power cord needs to be connected during treatment, which is convenient for the patient to place the phototherapy device. During charging, the power adapter is connected to the mains power supply and is electrically connected to the charging control board 402 via the Type-C charging interface to charge the battery 401. When the voltage of the battery 401 reaches 7.4V, the charging control board 402 activates the overvoltage protection device to stop charging the battery 401, thereby realizing the charging management of the battery 401. Battery 401 is preferably a lithium battery with a nominal voltage of 7.4V and a rated capacity of 5000mAh.

[0047] In one specific embodiment, the main control module 5 includes a PCB board 501, on which a control chip, a memory chip, a tactile switch, and a display screen are mounted. The PCB board 501 is fixedly installed inside the first housing 103. The first housing 103 has a square opening, and a lens 111 is mounted on the square opening. The display screen is mounted inside the lens 111. The first housing 103 has a button 112 at the corresponding position of the tactile switch, and one end of the button 112 is connected to the tactile switch. The control chip is an MCU control unit processor, and the memory chip is a FLASH memory. When in use, pressing and holding the power button inputs an electrical signal, and the MCU control unit processor controls the lithium battery to start, providing a driving voltage to start the main control module 5. At the same time, the MCU control unit processor outputs instructions to start the display screen. Pressing the switch button inputs an electrical signal to the MCU control unit processor, thereby controlling the light-emitting component 2 to output a composite spectrum of red light and near-infrared light, and also starting the operation of the fan 301. Simultaneously, the MCU control unit processor starts the normal operation of the temperature sensor 302. The MCU unit processor has built-in control software. Input commands control the MCU unit processor to control the output intensity of the high-energy spectral lamp core 202 through the duty cycle. The default is the weak setting. Pressing the button allows you to freely switch between the strong and weak settings. The treatment time is 30 minutes by default. Pressing the power button starts the high-energy spectral lamp core 202 to output composite spectral waves, and the treatment time starts at the same time and uses a countdown mode.

[0048] Of course, there may be other implementations of this utility model. Based on this implementation, other implementations obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model.
