All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0027] Example 1 See Figures 1-7 This invention discloses an upper limb therapeutic bath tub, comprising a seat 7, a treatment tub 4, and a circulation device. The treatment tub 4 is disposed on the seat 7, and the treatment tub 4 is provided with a plurality of spray heads 6, which are disposed on one side inner wall of the treatment tub 4 and arranged in a straight line. The circulation device is disposed inside the seat 7. The circulation device includes a pump assembly 10, an inlet pipe 21, an outlet pipe 8, an inlet receiving pipe, and an outlet receiving pipe. One end of the outlet pipe 8 is connected to the inner cavity of the treatment tank 4, and the other end of the outlet pipe 8 is connected to the inlet of the pump assembly 10. One end of the inlet pipe 21 is connected to the spray head 6, and the other end of the inlet pipe 21 is connected to the outlet of the pump assembly 10. The inlet pipe 21 is disposed in the inner cavity of the outlet pipe 8, and a water outlet channel is formed between the outer wall of the inlet pipe 21 and the inner wall of the outlet pipe 8.

[0028] Specifically, one end of the water outlet receiving pipe is connected to the side wall of the water outlet pipe 8, and the other end of the water outlet receiving pipe is connected to the inlet of the pump assembly 10, thereby connecting the water outlet pipe 8 and the pump assembly 10. A first valve 19 is provided on the water outlet receiving pipe, which can be an electric ball valve. In this embodiment, the water outlet receiving pipe includes a first receiving pipe 13 and a second receiving pipe 14, which are connected at a 90-degree angle via a bend. The first receiving pipe 13 is connected to the water outlet pipe 8, and the other end of the second receiving pipe 14 is connected to the inlet of the pump assembly 10. Since there are two treatment tanks 4 in this embodiment, the second receiving pipes 14 corresponding to the two treatment tanks 4 can be connected to the inlet of the pump assembly 10 via a three-way pipe 18.

[0029] The end of the inlet pipe 21 furthest from the treatment tank 4 is provided with a connecting pipe 33, which axially passes through the outlet pipe 8. Below the connecting pipe 33 is a transition pipe 12, the bottom of which is sealed. The connecting pipe 33 communicates with the transition pipe 12. The inlet receiving pipe includes a third receiving pipe 17, a fourth receiving pipe 16, and a fifth receiving pipe 15. Along the direction of liquid flow, the third receiving pipe 17, the fourth receiving pipe 16, and the fifth receiving pipe 15 are connected sequentially via bends and are perpendicular to each other. See [link to details]. Figures 2-3 The fifth receiving pipe 15 is connected to the side of the connecting pipe 12, and the third receiving pipe 17 is connected to the outlet of the pump assembly 10, thereby connecting the inlet pipe 21 to the pump assembly 10. Similarly, the third receiving pipes 17 corresponding to the two treatment tanks 4 in this embodiment are also connected to the outlet of the pump assembly 10 through a tee pipe 18. In addition, a second valve 20 is provided on the third receiving pipe 17, which can be an electric ball valve. By setting up such an inlet receiving pipe, connecting pipe 33 and connecting pipe 12, the connection between the inlet pipe 21 and the pump assembly 10 is convenient, and they can be staggered from the outlet receiving pipe, making the pipeline layout clear and simple, and the structure reliable.
