Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of menstrual cups, and more particularly to an intelligent control method of a menstrual cup and the menstrual cup. Background Art

[0002] A menstrual cup is a container made of medical-grade silicone, latex or rubber for collecting menstrual blood. It is soft and elastic, making it easy to deform and insert into the female vagina. It is mainly used as a sanitary product for women during their menstrual period.

[0003] At present, the functions of menstrual cups on the market are relatively simple and can only collect menstrual blood. Due to individual differences, some women usually experience dysmenorrhea during their menstrual period. The current means of relieving dysmenorrhea is usually to heat or massage the lower abdomen. For example, the simplest heating method is to stick a heating patch on the lower abdomen. The heating time of the heating patch is short and can only be used once. The simplest massage is to massage the lower abdomen by hand. Therefore, the means of relieving dysmenorrhea are not very convenient.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an intelligent control method of a menstrual cup and the menstrual cup to at least partially solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0005] A series of simplified concepts are introduced in the Summary of the Invention, which will be further described in detail in the Detailed Description of the Invention.

[0036] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments so that those skilled in the art can implement the invention with reference to the description.

[0037] It should be understood that the terms such as “having”, “including” and “comprising” used herein do not exclude the existence or addition of one or more other elements or combinations thereof.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a menstrual cup, comprising:

[0039] The cup body 1 is used for collecting menstrual blood;

[0040] The functional component 2 is detachably connected to the cup body 1 via a connecting tube 3, and the functional component 2 is used for heating and massaging the abdomen.

[0041] The cup body 1 can adopt any structural form in the prior art, and the shape of the functional component 2 is preferably a structure suitable for fitting with the abdomen; the connecting tube 3 is a hard material that can be deformed, that is, after the connecting tube 3 is deformed, it can maintain the deformed state, and the outside of the connecting tube 3 can be wrapped with a sleeve made of a flexible material, and the sleeve is more comfortable to contact with the human body; after the connecting tube 3 is connected to the cup body 1, it can be bent to make the functional component 2 fit with the abdomen, and the connecting tube 3 forms a support for the functional component 2, and the cup body 1 can be in close contact with the inner wall of the vagina due to its bell-shaped shape, so that it will not fall out;

[0042] The functional component 2 can be supported by the connecting tube 3 and the cup body 1 so that the functional component 2 is in contact with the abdomen, and heating and massaging of the abdomen can be achieved by controlling the functional component 2.

[0043] Through the above design, the cup body 1 can be detachably connected to the functional component 2, so the two can be used simultaneously or separately; the functional component 2 can be used to apply heat and massage to the female lower abdomen, effectively relieving the symptoms of female dysmenorrhea and improving the convenience and functionality of use; the cup body 1 can be reused, saving use costs and being more environmentally friendly.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the functional component 2 includes: a shell 4 on which a massage area 41 and a heating area 42 are provided, and a driving part 5 corresponding to the massage area 41 and a heating body 6 corresponding to the heating area 42 are provided in the shell 4.

[0045] Furthermore, a battery module and a control module are also provided in the functional component 2. The battery module is used to provide electrical energy to the driving unit 5 and the heating body 6. The control module is used to control the operation of the driving unit 5 and the heating body 6. The control module can communicate with a control terminal (for example: a mobile phone APP) to control the driving unit 5 and the heating body 6 through the control terminal.

[0046] The control terminal enables the user to input the start time and end time of menstruation.

[0047] The side of the shell 4 that fits the abdomen is made of flexible material, and the other side is made of hard material; the shell 4 is in contact with the abdomen through the support of the connecting tube 3, or a strap can be provided on the shell 4, and the strap is wrapped around the waist of the human body and tied tightly to achieve contact between the functional component 2 and the abdomen.

[0048] In this embodiment, a position arrangement of the massage area 41 and the heating area 42 is provided, the massage area 41 is located in the middle of the heating area 42, the heating area 42 surrounds the outside of the massage area 41 or the heating area 42 covers the massage area 41, and a plurality of annular protrusions are provided at the massage area 41, and the annular protrusions are used to contact the abdomen;

[0049] The movable end of the driving part 5 is connected to the position corresponding to the middle of the massage area 41 , and a heating body 6 is provided on the housing 4 corresponding to the heating area 42 .

[0050] The driving unit 5 is one of a voice coil motor, a linear motor, a motor and a vibration motor.

[0051] In one embodiment, a tube body 11 is provided at one end of the cup body 1 , and the tube body 11 is detachably connected to the connecting pipe 3 .

[0052] The detachable connection between the tube body 11 and the connecting tube 3 may be one or more of threaded connection, clamping connection or magnetic connection.

[0053] Two structural forms of the cup body 1 and the tube body 11 are provided below:

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, in the first type, the connection between the tube body 11 and the cup body 1 is a closed setting.

[0055] The cup body 1 and the tube body 11 are separated and connected directly to the connecting tube 3 via the tube body 11 , so that a sensor for detecting menstrual blood data in the cup body 1 can be arranged inside the cup body 1 .

[0056] like Figure 3 As shown, in the second type, the tube body 11 is connected to the cup body 1, the tube body 11 is detachably connected with a connector 7, and the connecting tube 3 is detachably connected to the connector 7; the connector 7 is provided with a first pressure sensor for detecting the amount of menstrual blood.

[0057] The connection between the tube body 11 and the cup body 1 is a non-closed setting, and is detachably connected to the tube body 11 through a connector 7, and the connector 7 can be sealed with the tube body 11. The other end of the connector 7 is used for detachably connecting to the connecting pipe 3. The detachable connection method between the connector 7 and the tube body 11 and the connecting pipe 3 can be one or more combinations of threaded connection, clamping connection or magnetic connection.

[0058] A first pressure sensor is arranged at the end where the connector 7 is connected to the tube body 11. The first pressure sensor can sense the pressure of the menstrual blood in the cup body 1, and detect the amount of menstrual blood through the correspondence between the pressure of the menstrual blood and the amount of menstrual blood. The data acquired by the first pressure sensor can be transmitted to the control terminal in real time, and the control terminal can record the amount of menstrual blood every day through the data detected by the first pressure sensor.

[0059] A first trigger point can be set at the other end of the connector 7, and a second trigger point can be set at the end of the connecting tube 3. After the connector 7 and the connecting tube 3 are connected, the first trigger point and the second trigger point are electrically connected. When the functional component 2 receives the electrical connection signal of the first trigger point and the second trigger point, the functional component 2 can be automatically put into standby mode. When the functional component 2 meets the working conditions, the heating or massage function can be automatically turned on. There is no need to operate the control terminal, so intelligent control can be achieved, thereby improving the convenience of use.

[0060] A reminder mode can be set on the control terminal, and a reminder is issued when the amount of menstrual blood in the cup body 1 reaches a set amount; since the connector 7 and the tube body 11 are detachably connected, the user can only disassemble the connector 7 and the tube body 11, and the tube body 11 is connected to the cup body 1, so that the menstrual blood in the cup body 1 can be discharged from the tube body 11, and the menstrual blood can be discharged without taking out the cup body 1, which is convenient to use.

[0061] In addition, the connector 7 is detachably connected to the tube body 11 and the connecting tube 3 , so that when the connector 7 is damaged, only the connector 7 needs to be replaced without replacing the cup body 1 together.

[0062] In one embodiment, a second pressure sensor and a temperature sensor are provided on the side of the shell 4 that contacts the abdomen. The second pressure sensor is used to detect the contact pressure between the functional component 2 and the abdomen, and the temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature of the abdomen.

[0063] Further, the heating area 42 includes: a first unit area, a second unit area and a third unit area arranged in sequence from the middle to the edge;

[0064] The heating body 6 includes: a first heating unit corresponding to the first unit area, a second heating unit corresponding to the second unit, and a third heating unit corresponding to the third unit.

[0065] The second pressure sensor is preferably arranged at the massage area 41 , and a plurality of second pressure sensors may be arranged; the temperature sensor is arranged at the heating area 42 , and at least one temperature sensor is arranged on the first unit area, the second unit area and the third unit area respectively.

[0066] The powers of the heating units in the same unit area are the same, and the powers of the heating units in different unit areas are different. When heating, the first power of the first heating unit is less than the second power of the second heating unit, and the second power is less than the third power of the third heating unit. Since the first heating unit is located in the middle, its heat dissipation is the slowest, and the third heating unit is at the edge, its heat dissipation is the fastest, so the power of the heating units in each unit area is differentiated according to the layout of the heating units, so that the heating temperature felt by the abdomen is more balanced, thereby improving the use effect.

[0067] like Figure 4 As shown, the present invention also provides an intelligent control method for a menstrual cup, which is applied to the menstrual cup of the present invention, comprising:

[0068] After the cup body 1 is connected to the functional component 2, the functional component 2 enters the standby mode and obtains the usage data of the cup body 1; wherein the usage data of the cup body 1 includes: the number of menstrual days of the user, the current menstrual time and the target temperature required for heating;

[0069] In the usage data of the cup body 1, the number of days of the user's menstruation is the historical number of days, which can be input into the control terminal by the user himself, or obtained based on the actual number of days of use of the cup body 1; the actual number of days of use can be obtained based on the data detected by the first pressure sensor, that is, the first pressure sensor detects a pressure value within a day, which means that the user is judged to be in the menstrual period, and the first pressure sensor does not detect a pressure value within a day, which means that the user is not in the menstrual period; the current menstrual time is a record of the number of days of the user's current menstrual period, which can be obtained through the data detected by the first pressure sensor, which is the same as the above principle; the target temperature required for heating is the heating temperature preset by the user;

[0070] According to the usage data of the cup body 1, the massage function of the functional component 2 is controlled;

[0071] In this step, the massage function of the functional component 2 is mainly controlled based on the number of menstrual days and the current menstrual time of the user. The number of menstrual days and the current menstrual time can usually reflect the dysmenorrhea pattern of the user, and the dysmenorrhea pattern can be obtained through the dysmenorrhea time input by the user in the control terminal, so that the dysmenorrhea time of the current menstrual period can be predicted based on the historical dysmenorrhea time, thereby realizing the control of the massage function of the functional component 2;

[0072] The heating function of the functional component 2 is controlled according to the usage data of the cup body 1 and the acquired real-time temperature of the abdomen;

[0073] In this step, whether the heating function of the functional component 2 is turned on is controlled according to the obtained real-time temperature of the abdomen, and the heating temperature of the functional component 2 is controlled according to the required target temperature;

[0074] Before the functional component 2 works, it is obtained whether the functional component 2 meets the working conditions. If so, the functional component 2 starts to work. If not, the functional component 2 needs to be adjusted.

[0075] After the cup body 1 is connected to the functional component 2, the functional component 2 can enter the standby mode, and then the position of the functional component 2 can be adjusted, and when it meets the working conditions, it can start working;

[0076] The judgment standard for satisfying the working condition is: the contact pressure between the functional component 2 and the abdomen. When the contact pressure is greater than or equal to the set pressure, it indicates that the functional component 2 meets the working condition. When the contact pressure is less than the set pressure, it indicates that the functional component 2 does not meet the working condition.

[0077] The functional component 2 that meets the working conditions can effectively massage and heat the abdomen, preventing the functional component 2 from starting to massage and heat the abdomen when it is not tightly fitted to the abdomen, thereby reducing the use effect; in addition, the judgment of the working conditions can also prevent the functional component 2 from working after being connected to the cup body 1 but not in contact with the abdomen, thereby improving the intelligence of use.

[0078] In one embodiment, the massage function of the functional component 2 is controlled according to the usage data of the cup body 1, including:

[0079] According to the number of menstrual days of the user and the current menstrual time, it is predicted whether the user needs massage during the current menstrual time. If so, the function component 2 starts working when the working conditions are met, and the massage function of the function component 2 is controlled according to the set massage control strategy. If not, the massage function of the function component 2 is not turned on.

[0080] The massage control strategy is set to include: the number of massages and the massage time per day corresponding to the current menstrual period.

[0081] For example, if the user's menstrual period lasts for 7 days and she experiences dysmenorrhea on the first and second days of her period, and her current menstrual period is on the second day, it is predicted that the user needs a massage. Therefore, if functional component 2 meets the working conditions, the user can be massaged based on the number of massages and massage time per day; the massage time is the duration of each massage. In addition, a massage time period can also be set. For example, massage can be performed during the time period from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. during the day, and the massage function is not turned on at other times.

[0082] Furthermore, when the functional component 2 meets the working conditions, the massage function of the functional component 2 is controlled according to the set control strategy, including: in the initial stage of massage, obtaining the maximum pressure of the massage area 41 in contact with the abdomen, comparing the maximum pressure with the reference pressure, if the maximum pressure is greater than the reference pressure, stopping the massage, and if the maximum pressure is less than or equal to the reference pressure, continuing the massage.

[0083] When the massage area 41 contacts the abdomen of the human body, the maximum pressure related to the normal movement of the massage area 41 is generated. If the massage area 41 contacts other hard objects after working, the maximum pressure detected by the second pressure sensor will deviate from the maximum pressure of the massage area 41 in contact with the abdomen. This is because the abdomen is relatively soft and other hard objects are relatively hard. After the massage area 41 moves, the contact pressure between the two will be relatively large. For example, the cup body 1 and the functional component 4 are already connected, but when they fall accidentally, the functional component 4 may contact the ground or other hard objects, thereby avoiding the massage function of the functional component 4 from being turned on in an accidental situation, causing damage to itself. Through the above method, the massage area 41 can be prevented from contacting other hard objects for massage work, thereby ensuring the safety of the use of the functional component 4.

[0084] In one embodiment, the heating function of the functional component 2 is controlled according to the usage data of the cup body 1 and the acquired real-time temperature of the abdomen, including:

[0085] Obtain the real-time temperature of the abdomen and determine whether the real-time temperature of the abdomen is less than the set temperature. If so, start working when the functional component 2 meets the working conditions, and control the heating function of the functional component 2 according to the set heating control strategy. If not, do not turn on the heating function;

[0086] Obtain the real-time temperature of the abdomen and determine whether the real-time temperature of the abdomen reaches the target temperature. If so, control the functional component 2 to maintain the target temperature and stop heating after maintaining the set time; if not, continue heating;

[0087] When the total heating time reaches the set maximum time, the heating stops.

[0088] Both the set temperature and the target temperature can be temperatures pre-set by the user, which are set on the control terminal; the target temperature can also be a comfortable temperature recommended by the control terminal; the heating function is turned on by comparing the real-time temperature with the set temperature; the heating function is turned off by comparing the real-time temperature with the target temperature.

[0089] The timing starts when the heating function is turned on. The time taken for the real-time abdominal temperature to reach the target temperature is the heating time. The time after reaching the target temperature and maintaining it is the keeping time (i.e. the set time). The sum of the heating time and the keeping time is the set maximum time, which can be pre-set on the control terminal.

[0090] Furthermore, setting the heating control strategy includes:

[0091] The total duration of each heating is the maximum set time to prevent skin damage caused by excessive heating time;

[0092] According to the correspondence between the positions of the first unit area, the second unit area and the third unit area and the heating power, the first power of the first heating unit, the second power of the second heating unit and the third power of the third heating unit are determined respectively; wherein the first power is less than the second power, and the second power is less than the third power.

[0093] Since the first heating unit is located in the middle and dissipates heat the slowest, while the third heating unit is located at the edge and dissipates heat the fastest, the power of the heating units in each unit area is differentiated according to the layout of the heating units, so that the heating temperature felt by the abdomen is more balanced, thereby improving the use effect.

[0094] In one embodiment, it further includes:

[0095] Obtain the amount of menstrual blood collected in the cup body 1 in real time, and record the total amount of menstrual blood every day during the current menstrual period;

[0096] The total amount of menstrual blood per day is compared with the average amount of menstrual blood at the corresponding time of the historical menstrual period. If the total amount of menstrual blood is less than the average amount of menstrual blood, and the difference between the two exceeds the set deviation, the set massage control strategy and the set heating control strategy are adjusted;

[0097] Among them, the adjustment of the set massage control strategy includes: increasing the number of massages per day and increasing the massage time;

[0098] Adjusting the set heating control strategy includes: extending the set maximum heating time within a safe range of the heating time.

[0099] The amount of menstrual blood can be obtained in real time through the first pressure sensor, and the total amount of menstrual blood obtained by the first pressure sensor is recorded every day; for example, if the current menstrual period lasts for 7 days, the total amount of menstrual blood for each day in the 7 days can be obtained; the average amount of menstrual blood at the corresponding time of the historical menstrual period can be expressed as: the average amount of menstrual blood on the i-th day in the previous n menstrual periods; for example, the total amount of menstrual blood on the first day of the current menstrual period is m, and the average amount of menstrual blood on the first day of the previous n menstrual periods is p, if m is less than p, and the difference between p and m is less than the set deviation, it indicates that the total amount of menstrual blood on the first day of the current menstrual period is less, and one of the reasons for the small amount of menstrual blood is cold, which can be improved by extending the heating time of the abdomen or increasing the number and time of massage.
