Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical devices, and particularly to an auxiliary device for treating fatty liver with a formula for soothing the liver, strengthening the spleen and resolving turbidity. Background Art

[0002] As a common liver disease, the incidence of fatty liver has been increasing year by year, seriously threatening people's health. Traditional Chinese medicine theory believes that the occurrence of fatty liver is closely related to the imbalance of liver and spleen functions and the accumulation of damp turbidity. When treating fatty liver, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the principles of soothing the liver, strengthening the spleen, resolving turbidity and reducing lipid, and aims to adjust the body's yin-yang balance and zang-fu organ functions to achieve the purpose of treating diseases.

[0003] The "formula for soothing the liver, strengthening the spleen and resolving turbidity" is an effective prescription for treating fatty liver summarized through long-term clinical practice based on traditional Chinese medicine theory. Through the compatibility of traditional Chinese medicines, this prescription aims to soothe the liver and relieve depression, strengthen the spleen and harmonize the stomach, resolve turbidity and reduce lipid, so as to improve the liver's metabolic function, promote fat metabolism and reduce the accumulation of liver fat. Although the "formula for soothing the liver, strengthening the spleen and resolving turbidity" has shown positive effects on the treatment of fatty liver in clinical practice, how to more effectively deliver the traditional Chinese medicine components to the liver area and improve the drug absorption efficiency and treatment effect remains an important challenge currently faced. In addition, factors such as individual differences, disease severity and patients' responses to treatment also require the treatment method to be more personalized and precise.

[0004] Traditional traditional Chinese medicine treatment usually relies on oral administration, but the absorption and distribution of drugs in the gastrointestinal tract are affected by various factors, resulting in insufficient effective drug concentration reaching the liver. At the same time, long-term oral administration of drugs may also cause side effects such as gastrointestinal discomfort. Therefore, it is particularly important to explore non-invasive, efficient and safe treatment methods.

[0005] In recent years, with the continuous development of physical therapy technologies, such as phototherapy and electrotherapy, their applications in the medical field have become increasingly widespread. Through the action of physical factors, these technologies can directly act on the lesion site, promote local blood circulation, relieve inflammation, accelerate tissue repair, etc., providing new ideas for the treatment of fatty liver.

[0006] The present invention proposes an auxiliary device for treating fatty liver with a formula for soothing the liver, strengthening the spleen and resolving turbidity, aiming to provide more comprehensive and personalized treatment assistance for patients by combining traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, physical therapy and intelligent monitoring and adjustment means. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides an auxiliary device for treating fatty liver with a formula for soothing the liver, strengthening the spleen and resolving turbidity, which combines traditional Chinese medicine theory with modern technology and realizes the comprehensive application of various treatment means such as drug treatment (ointment application), physical therapy (irradiation component and massage component), and temperature monitoring and adjustment through innovative design.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A liver-soothing, spleen-strengthening and turbidity-removing formula-assisted device for treating fatty liver, comprising a housing and a monitoring module. Fixed components for fixing the housing are installed on both sides of the housing. The monitoring module includes a controller, a temperature sensor for real-time temperature monitoring of the area covered by the housing, and a bimetallic strip. The housing is a hollow structure. A cooling cavity is provided at the bottom of the housing, and the cooling cavity is communicated with the inside of the housing. An adjustment hole is provided on the side wall of the cooling cavity, and the bimetallic strip is embedded in the adjustment hole. A ventilation port is provided on the side wall of the cooling cavity, and a piston plate is slidably fitted in the ventilation port. One side of the piston plate is fixedly connected to a piston rod, and the end of the piston rod away from the piston plate is located in the adjustment hole. A light reflection component is installed on one side of the bimetallic strip. The light reflection component includes an adjustment bracket. One side of the adjustment bracket is fixedly connected to the bimetallic strip, and a reflecting mirror is installed on the other side of the adjustment bracket;

[0009] An irradiation component for irradiating the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen is installed on the inner top wall of the housing, and a massage component for massaging the skin of the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen is installed on the outer side wall of the bottom of the housing. The irradiation component, the massage component and the monitoring component are all signal-connected to the controller, and the controller adjusts the irradiation component and the massage component according to the real-time temperature data monitored by the temperature sensor;

[0010] When the temperature rises, the bimetallic strip deforms due to heat, pushes the piston rod to move, and then adjusts the air flow in the cooling cavity. At the same time, the controller adjusts the current intensity of the massage component according to the temperature change, so that the massage intensity of the corresponding position of the massage component changes with the temperature;

[0011] At the same time, when the bimetallic strip deforms due to temperature change, it drives the displacement of the adjustment bracket, and then adjusts the angle of the reflecting mirror; the reflecting mirror reflects the light emitted by the irradiation component to the low-temperature area, and at the same time reduces the direct irradiation of the high-temperature area.

[0012] The technical principle of the above solution is as follows: The skin temperature of the area where the patient uses the auxiliary device is monitored in real time by the temperature sensor, and the temperature data monitored by the temperature sensor is transmitted to the controller. The controller judges whether the current temperature is appropriate according to the preset temperature threshold. When the temperature is too high, the bimetallic strip deforms due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, pushes the piston rod to move, and then drives the piston plate to slide, opens the ventilation port, and introduces external cold air for cooling. When the temperature returns to the appropriate range, the bimetallic strip returns to its original state, and the piston plate closes the ventilation port under the action of the spring to keep the temperature inside the housing stable.

[0013] The irradiation component emits light of a specific wavelength, which penetrates the skin and acts on the liver area, increasing the skin temperature, thereby improving the skin permeability, making it easier for drug molecules to penetrate the skin barrier and enter the subcutaneous tissue and liver area, enhancing the treatment effect. The massage component stimulates the nerve endings and muscle tissues under the skin through a weak current, relieving muscle tension, promoting blood circulation, and contributing to promoting transdermal absorption. The application of the ointment can increase the absorption and metabolism of the drug, enhancing the treatment effect.

[0014] The controller automatically adjusts the light intensity of the irradiation component and the massage intensity of the massage component according to the real-time temperature data monitored by the temperature sensor, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the treatment process. At the same time, the deformation of the bimetallic strip is also transmitted to the reflecting mirror through the adjusting bracket, thereby changing the angle of the reflecting mirror, enabling it to accurately reflect the light emitted by the irradiation component to the low-temperature area, while reducing the direct irradiation of the high-temperature area. This dynamic adjustment mechanism ensures the uniformity and effectiveness of the light irradiation, avoiding skin damage caused by excessive local temperature.

[0015] The following beneficial effects are achieved by adopting the above solution:

[0016] 1. Compared with the existing fatty liver treatment auxiliary devices that only rely on a single treatment method or lack temperature monitoring, this solution ensures the safety and effectiveness of the treatment process by real-time monitoring the skin temperature of the area where the auxiliary device is used by the patient and automatically adjusting the working states of the irradiation component and the massage component according to the temperature data. When the temperature is too high, the bimetallic strip automatically triggers the cooling mechanism to introduce external cold air for cooling, effectively avoiding skin burns or discomfort caused by excessive temperature. This intelligent temperature adjustment mechanism avoids problems such as skin damage or poor treatment effect caused by too high or too low temperature. Compared with the devices lacking an automatic cooling function in the prior art, through the cooperation of the bimetallic strip and the piston plate, the function of automatically opening the vent to introduce cold air for cooling when the temperature is too high is realized. This design not only improves the automation degree of the device but also ensures the stability of the temperature inside the housing, providing a more comfortable treatment experience for the patient.

[0017] 2. In this solution, the specific wavelength light emitted by the irradiation component can penetrate the skin and act on the liver area, improving the skin permeability and promoting the transdermal absorption of drug molecules, thereby enhancing the treatment effect. This light irradiation method is more direct and efficient than traditional drug treatment, helping to accelerate the recovery process of fatty liver.

[0018] 3. In this solution, the massage component stimulates the nerve endings and muscle tissues under the skin through a weak current, not only relieving muscle tension but also promoting blood circulation, further promoting the transdermal absorption of the drug. This massage method is both comfortable and effective, improving the patient's treatment experience.

[0019] 4. Compared with the device in the prior art where the working parameters of the irradiation component and the massage component are fixed, through the precise adjustment of the irradiation component and the massage component by the controller, personalized treatment is achieved. Doctors can set different light intensities and massage intensities according to the specific conditions and treatment goals of patients, thereby meeting the personalized needs of patients, improving the pertinence and effectiveness of treatment. At the same time, this intelligent adjustment method also reduces the work burden of medical staff and improves work efficiency.

[0020] 5. Compared with the fatty liver treatment assistance device in the prior art that only relies on drug treatment or physical therapy, this solution combines multiple treatment means such as drug treatment (ointment application), physical therapy (irradiation component and massage component), and temperature monitoring and adjustment to form a comprehensive treatment plan. This comprehensive treatment plan can give full play to the advantages of various treatment means, improve the treatment effect, shorten the treatment cycle, and bring better treatment experience and rehabilitation effect to patients.

[0021] 6. The deformation of the bimetallic strip in this solution is not only used to trigger the cooling mechanism but also precisely adjusts the angle of the reflector through the adjustment bracket. This precise adjustment ensures that the light can be evenly irradiated to the liver area while avoiding over-irradiation of the high-temperature area. In addition, the controller adjusts the current intensity of the massage component according to the temperature change, realizing personalized adjustment of the massage intensity. This comprehensive adjustment mechanism improves the pertinence and effectiveness of treatment and meets the personalized needs of different patients.

[0022] Furthermore, the massage component includes a housing. The housing is of a ring structure. The inner side wall of the housing is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the housing body. An electrode sheet is embedded in the bottom wall of the housing. The electrode sheet is used to simulate the traditional Chinese medicine massage technique to massage and stimulate the edge area of the housing. The electrode sheet is electrically connected to a power supply component, and the power supply component is installed on the outer top wall of the housing.

[0023] Beneficial effects: The weak current generated by the electrode sheet after being energized simulates the traditional Chinese medicine massage technique, which not only ensures the massage effect but also avoids the risk of skin damage to patients caused by excessive current. At the same time, the ring structure design of the housing enables the massage component to closely fit the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen, improving the comfort and stability of the massage. In addition, the addition of the nano-silver ion coating not only enhances the electrical conductivity of the electrode sheet but also endows it with antibacterial properties, ensuring the safety and hygiene of the massage process. The massage component further promotes blood circulation in the liver area by stimulating vasodilation and increasing blood flow. This helps to accelerate the distribution and metabolism of drugs, making it easier for drug molecules to penetrate the skin barrier and enter the subcutaneous tissue and liver area, thereby enhancing the treatment effect.

[0024] Furthermore, the power supply component includes a battery and a battery management module. The battery management module is used to monitor the battery power. There is a battery slot on the housing for installing the battery. The battery slot is provided with a cover for closing the battery slot and a charging port for the battery. The battery management module is signal-connected to the controller. When the battery management module detects insufficient battery power, a prompt signal is sent through the controller.

[0025] Beneficial effects: The power supply component includes a battery and a battery management module, providing stable and reliable power supply for the massage component, irradiation component, monitoring module, etc. Compared with the designs in the prior art that rely on external power sources or power cords, the battery-powered method in this solution makes the device more portable and flexible. Patients can conduct autonomous treatment at home or other non-medical environments without worrying about the restraint of power cords or the limitation of external power sources. This helps improve the continuity and stability of the treatment process and ensure the persistence of the treatment effect. The battery management module is used to monitor the battery power. When the power is insufficient, the controller is used to remind medical staff or patients to replace the battery. This intelligent battery management method not only avoids treatment interruption caused by depleted battery power but also enhances the user experience. Medical staff or patients can timely understand the battery power situation and reasonably arrange the time to replace the battery, thus ensuring the smooth progress of the treatment.

[0026] Furthermore, it further includes an early warning module. The early warning module includes an indicator light and a buzzer. The indicator light is used to flash and emit different colors of light to represent different early warning reminders, and the buzzer is used to emit different alarm sounds. Both the indicator light and the buzzer are signal-connected to the controller. When the temperature data real-time monitored by the temperature sensor received by the controller does not match the preset data, the early warning module emits an audible and visual alarm signal.

[0027] Beneficial effects: The early warning module enables the device to monitor and respond to the data changes of the temperature sensor in real time. When the temperature data does not match the preset data, that is, when an abnormal situation occurs, the early warning module can immediately emit an audible and visual alarm signal to remind medical staff to take measures in a timely manner. This real-time safety monitoring ability helps avoid the risk of skin damage to patients caused by too high or too low temperature and ensures the safety and reliability of the treatment process. By flashing the indicator light and emitting different colors of light and the buzzer emitting different alarm sounds, the early warning module can convey the patient's status information to medical staff in an intuitive and easy-to-understand way. Medical staff can quickly judge the type and severity of the abnormal situation based on the color of the indicator light and the sound of the buzzer, and thus take corresponding countermeasures. This enhanced perception ability helps improve the reaction speed and decision-making accuracy of medical staff.

[0028] Furthermore, the irradiation component includes a treatment lamp which is used to emit light of a specific wavelength for irradiation-assisted treatment. The treatment lamp is signal-connected to the controller, and the controller can adjust the light wavelength of the treatment lamp according to the preset data and the temperature data real-time monitored by the temperature sensor.

[0029] Beneficial effects: The treatment lamp in the irradiation component can emit light of a specific wavelength, and these lights can penetrate the skin and directly act on the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen. The irradiation of light with a specific wavelength can stimulate the microcirculation under the skin, increase blood flow, and thus accelerate the distribution and metabolism of drug molecules. This promotion not only improves the utilization rate of drugs, but also shortens the treatment cycle, enabling the patient to recover faster. The treatment lamp is signal-connected to the controller, and the controller can automatically adjust the light wavelength of the treatment lamp according to the preset data and the temperature data real-time monitored by the temperature sensor. This intelligent adjustment mechanism ensures the safety and effectiveness of the treatment process, and avoids the risk of damaging the patient's skin due to excessive or insufficient light intensity. At the same time, the intelligent adjustment also improves the patient's treatment experience, making the treatment process more comfortable and personalized.

[0030] Furthermore, the fixing component includes several elastic straps and Velcro. One end of the elastic strap is fixedly connected to both sides of the housing, and the Velcro is fixedly connected to the end of the elastic strap away from the housing. The Velcro is used to fix the elastic strap on the patient.

[0031] Beneficial effects: Through the design of several elastic straps and Velcro, the fixing component can firmly fix the device on the patient, ensuring that the device will not slip or shift during the treatment process. This stability and fixity are crucial for ensuring that the light of the treatment lamp accurately irradiates the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen, thus guaranteeing the continuity and consistency of the treatment effect. The elastic straps are made of soft and elastic materials, which can adapt to the body shapes and abdominal curves of different patients, providing a comfortable fitting feeling. The design of the Velcro makes the fixing process simple and fast, and the patient can easily adjust the tightness of the straps according to their own needs, thus obtaining the best wearing experience. This improvement in comfort and usage experience helps to enhance the patient's confidence and compliance with the treatment.

[0032] Furthermore, a user interaction module is embedded in the top of the housing. The user interaction module includes a display screen and operation buttons. The display screen is used to display the current treatment status, temperature data, and remaining treatment time information, and the operation buttons are used for the user to manually adjust the treatment parameters.

[0033] Beneficial effects: The display screen in the user interaction module can display the current treatment status, temperature data, and remaining treatment time information in real time, enabling patients and medical staff to clearly understand the treatment progress and various parameters. This enhanced transparency helps boost patients' confidence in the treatment, and also facilitates medical staff in monitoring and adjusting the treatment process. The operation buttons allow patients or medical staff to manually adjust treatment parameters such as light wavelength, irradiation intensity, massage intensity, etc., thus achieving precise control of the treatment process. The user interaction module allows patients to manually adjust treatment parameters according to their physical conditions and treatment needs through the operation buttons. This personalized adjustment method helps meet the treatment needs of different patients and improves the pertinence and effectiveness of the treatment effect. At the same time, medical staff can also make real-time adjustments and optimizations to the treatment plan based on the specific conditions of the patients through the information on the display screen.

[0034] Furthermore, it includes a personalized module. The personalized module is signal-connected to the controller and is used to receive the patient's personal information, medical history, and treatment goals, and automatically generate a personalized treatment plan. The personalized treatment plan includes irradiation time, preset data, and light wavelength parameters of the treatment lamp.

[0035] Beneficial effects: The personalized module can automatically generate a set of personalized treatment plans suitable for the patient based on the patient's personal information, medical history, and treatment goals. This personalized treatment plan can more accurately target the specific conditions of the patient for treatment, thereby improving the pertinence and effectiveness of the treatment. By precisely controlling parameters such as irradiation time, temperature threshold, and light wavelength of the treatment lamp, the personalized module can ensure that the treatment process achieves the best effect. When generating the treatment plan, the personalized module will comprehensively consider the patient's personal information and medical history, thus avoiding potential risks caused by improper setting of treatment parameters. This improvement in safety helps ensure the smooth progress of the treatment process and reduces the incidence of complications and adverse reactions during the treatment.

[0036] Furthermore, it also includes a remote monitoring and data transmission module. The remote monitoring and data transmission module is used to transmit the patient's physiological data, treatment parameters, and the working status of the device to a remote server or the intelligent terminal of medical staff in real time.

[0037] Beneficial effects: The remote monitoring and data transmission module enables medical staff to view the physiological data, treatment parameters, and working status of the device of patients at any time and anywhere, so as to quickly respond to the needs of patients and provide timely and effective medical services. This way of remote monitoring breaks through the limitations of time and space, enabling patients to receive the attention and guidance of professional medical staff even at home. By real-time transmitting the physiological data and treatment parameters of patients, medical staff can more accurately understand the treatment progress and physical condition of patients, so as to remotely adjust the treatment plan as needed. This personalized adjustment method can ensure that the treatment process more meets the actual needs of patients and improves the continuity and effectiveness of treatment.

[0038] Furthermore, the outer sidewall of the electrode sheet of the massage component is coated with a nano-silver ion coating.

[0039] Beneficial effects: The nano-silver ion coating has excellent antibacterial ability and can effectively inhibit the growth of various bacteria and molds. Applying this coating on the electrode sheet of the massage component can significantly reduce the risk of cross-infection caused by bacterial growth during use, providing a safer and more hygienic treatment environment for patients. The nano-silver ion coating not only has antibacterial function, but its special physical and chemical properties may also have a positive impact on the massage effect. For example, the coating may help improve the contact performance between the electrode sheet and the skin, making the current conduction during massage smoother, thereby enhancing the comfort and effect of massage.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific situations.

[0049] The following will be further described in detail through specific implementation manners:

[0050] Embodiment 1:

[0051] As shown in the attached Figures 1 to 4As shown: A liver-soothing, spleen-strengthening and turbidity-resolving formula assisted device for treating fatty liver, including a housing 1 and a monitoring module. On both sides of the housing 1, there are fixed components for fixing the housing 1 to the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen. The fixed components include a number of elastic straps 13 and Velcro 14. One end of the elastic strap 13 is fixedly connected to both sides of the housing 1, and the Velcro 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the elastic strap 13 away from the housing 1. The Velcro 14 is used to fix the elastic strap 13 to the patient. The elastic strap 13 provides sufficient fastening force, while the Velcro 14 facilitates quick fixation and release, ensuring that the device will not shift or fall off during the treatment process and can be conveniently installed and disassembled.

[0052] The monitoring module includes a controller, a temperature sensor for real-time temperature monitoring of the area where the patient uses the assisted device, and a bimetallic strip 4 (the bimetallic strip 4 is used as a temperature-sensitive composite material. Due to the different thermal expansion coefficients of each component layer, when the temperature changes, the deformation of the active layer is greater than that of the passive layer, so the whole bimetallic strip will deform towards the passive layer side). The housing 1 is a hollow structure. There is a cooling chamber 2 at the bottom of the housing 1. The cooling chamber 2 is communicated with the inside of the housing 1. An adjustment hole 3 is opened on the side wall of the cooling chamber 2. The bimetallic strip 4 is embedded in the adjustment hole 3. A ventilation port 5 is opened on the side wall of the cooling chamber 2. A piston plate 6 is slidably fitted in the ventilation port 5. One side of the piston plate 6 is fixedly connected to a piston rod 7. The end of the piston rod 7 away from the piston plate 6 is located in the adjustment hole 3. The bimetallic strip 4 is embedded in the adjustment hole 3. A light reflection component is installed on one side of the bimetallic strip 4. The light reflection component includes an adjustment bracket. One side of the adjustment bracket is fixedly connected to the side of the bimetallic strip 4 away from the piston rod 7. A reflecting mirror 16 is installed on the other side of the adjustment bracket.

[0053] An irradiation component for irradiating the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen is installed on the inner top wall of the housing 1. The irradiation component includes a treatment lamp 12. The treatment lamp 12 is used to emit light of a specific wavelength to irradiate and assist in the treatment of the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen. The treatment lamp 12 is signal-connected to the controller. The light emitted by the treatment lamp 12 can increase the temperature of the skin, thereby improving the skin permeability, making it easier for drug molecules to penetrate the skin barrier and enter the subcutaneous tissue and liver area, enhancing the treatment effect.

[0054] On the outer side wall of the bottom of the housing 1, a massage component is installed for massaging the skin of the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen. The massage component includes a housing 8, and the housing 8 is of an annular structure. The inner side wall of the housing 8 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the housing 1. An electrode sheet 9 is embedded in the bottom wall of the housing 8. The electrode sheet 9 is used to simulate the traditional Chinese medicine massage technique to massage and stimulate the liver area in the upper right part of the patient's abdomen. A nano-silver ion coating is applied to the outer side wall of the electrode sheet 9. After the electrode sheet 9 is powered on, it will generate a weak current, which can stimulate the nerve endings and muscle tissues under the skin, causing muscle contraction and relaxation, thereby promoting blood circulation and lymphatic circulation. At the same time, the nano-silver ion coating can enhance the electrical conductivity and antibacterial properties of the electrode sheet 9 to ensure the safety and comfort of the massage process. Massage can stimulate blood vessel dilation, increase blood flow, further promote blood circulation in the liver area, help accelerate the distribution and metabolism of drugs, and improve the treatment effect. The electrode sheet 9 is electrically connected to a power supply component, and the power supply component is installed on the outer top wall of the housing 8. The irradiation component, the massage component, and the monitoring component are all signal-connected to the controller. The controller adjusts the irradiation component and the massage component according to the real-time temperature data monitored by the temperature sensor, that is, the controller can automatically adjust the light wavelength of the treatment lamp 12 according to the preset data and the temperature data real-time monitored by the temperature sensor. The controller automatically adjusts the light wavelength of the treatment lamp 12 and the current output of the massage component according to the preset data and the real-time monitored data to achieve intelligent management, improve the treatment efficiency and accuracy.

[0055] When the temperature rises, the bimetallic strip 4 is heated and deformed, pushes the piston plate 6 to move through the piston rod 7, and then adjusts the airflow in the cooling chamber 2. At the same time, the controller adjusts the current intensity of the electrode sheet according to the temperature change, so that the massage intensity of the electrode sheet at the corresponding position changes with the temperature. At the same time, when the bimetallic strip 4 deforms due to temperature change, it drives the adjustment bracket to displace, and then adjusts the angle of the reflector 16; the reflector 16 reflects the light emitted by the irradiation component to the low-temperature area and reduces the direct irradiation of the high-temperature area at the same time.

[0056] The power supply component includes a battery and a battery management module. The battery management module is used to monitor the battery power. A battery slot 10 for installing the battery is provided on the housing 8. The battery slot 10 is provided with a cover body 11 for closing the battery slot 10 and a charging port for the battery. The battery management module is signal-connected to the controller. When the battery management module monitors that the battery power is insufficient, it reminds the medical staff to replace the battery through the controller. The battery management module monitors the battery power in real time, reminds the medical staff to replace the battery in time, and ensures the stable operation of the device.

[0057] The specific implementation process is as follows: Before use, first clean the skin of the upper right part of the patient's abdomen to ensure that the skin surface is free of oil, dirt, or sweat, so as not to affect the absorption of the ointment and the use effect of the device. Ask the patient if they have a history of allergies or special skin conditions to ensure the safe use of the soothing liver, strengthening spleen, and resolving turbidity formula ointment and the device. Apply the ointment prepared from the soothing liver, strengthening spleen, and resolving turbidity formula evenly on the liver area of the upper right part of the patient's abdomen. The thickness and scope of the ointment should be adjusted according to the treatment requirements.

[0058] At the same time, to address the problems that the ointment cannot ensure completely uniform application and the treatment lamp irradiation cannot ensure uniform temperature in each area, based on the deformation characteristics of the bimetallic strip 4, the light reflection component is used to adjust the reflection of the light emitted by the treatment lamp 12. That is, when the bimetallic strip 4 deforms due to temperature change, it drives the adjustment bracket to displace, and then adjusts the angle of the reflecting mirror 16; the reflecting mirror 16 reflects the light emitted by the treatment lamp 12 to the low-temperature area, while reducing the direct irradiation of the high-temperature area, thereby achieving dynamic temperature balance and ensuring uniform temperature in each area. The angle adjustment range of the reflecting mirror 16 is precisely controlled according to the deformation amount of the bimetallic strip 4. The controller dynamically adjusts the angle of the reflecting mirror 16 based on the real-time data of the temperature sensor and in combination with the preset temperature distribution model to achieve uniform temperature distribution, improve the treatment effect, and enhance patient comfort.

[0059] Then, fix the device of the present invention on the liver area of the upper right part of the patient's abdomen through the elastic band 13 and the Velcro 14, and adjust the tightness of the elastic band 13 to ensure that the device fits firmly on the skin without causing discomfort to the patient. After wearing, set the treatment parameters through the controller, including treatment time, light wavelength, and massage intensity, etc. These parameters should be adjusted according to the specific situation of the patient and the suggestions of medical staff to achieve the best treatment effect.

[0060] Start the treatment lamp 12 and the electrode plate 9 in the massage component to start the treatment. The treatment lamp 12 emits light of a specific wavelength, and these lights can increase the skin temperature, thereby improving the skin permeability, making the drug molecules in the ointment more easily penetrate the skin barrier and enter the subcutaneous tissue and the liver area, enhancing the treatment effect.

[0061] The electrode plate 9 generates a weak current after being energized, simulating traditional Chinese medicine massage techniques to massage and stimulate the liver area of the upper right part of the patient's abdomen. At the same time, the nano-silver ion coating can enhance the electrical conductivity and antibacterial properties of the electrode plate 9 to ensure the safety and comfort during the massage process. Massage can stimulate blood vessel dilation, increase blood flow, and further promote blood circulation in the liver area. This helps to accelerate the distribution and metabolism of drugs and improve the treatment effect. Both the treatment lamp 12 and the electrode plate 9 can promote transdermal absorption, and the application of the ointment can further promote the absorption and metabolism of drugs and enhance the treatment effect.

[0062] During the treatment process, the temperature sensor in the monitoring module continuously monitors the skin temperature of the area where the patient uses the auxiliary device. The controller adjusts the power of the treatment lamp 12 based on the data transmitted by the temperature sensor to ensure a suitable temperature during the treatment process and avoid discomfort caused to the patient by overheating or overcooling.

[0063] When the temperature received by the controller exceeds the preset threshold, the bimetallic strip 4 will deform due to the high temperature, thereby pushing the piston rod 7. At the same time, the piston rod 7 pushes the piston plate 6, and the piston plate 6 slides out from the ventilation port 5, making the inside of the housing 1, the cooling chamber 2, and the outside communicate. The outside air can enter the cooling chamber 2 through the ventilation port 5, and the temperature inside the housing 1 is reduced through natural convection or forced convection (Natural convection: When the outside temperature is lower than the temperature inside the housing 1, the hot air will rise and be discharged through the ventilation port 5, and the cold air will enter the inside of the housing 1 through the ventilation port 5, forming natural convection. Forced convection: When needed, forced convection devices such as fans can be started to accelerate the air flow and improve the cooling effect). Conversely, when the temperature is lower than the threshold, the bimetallic strip 4 returns to its original state, and the piston rod 7 closes the adjustment hole 3 to reduce heat dissipation.

[0064] After the treatment is over, turn off the treatment lamp 12 and the massage component, and disconnect the power supply. Gently remove the device and clean the residual ointment on the patient's skin.

[0065] Embodiment 2:

[0066] As shown in the Figure 4 appendix, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that it further includes a warning module. The warning module includes an indicator light and a buzzer. The indicator light is used to flash and emit different colors of light to represent different warning reminders, and the buzzer is used to emit different alarm sounds. Both the indicator light and the buzzer are signal-connected to the controller. When the temperature data real-time monitored by the temperature sensor received by the controller does not match the preset data, the warning module can emit an audible and visual alarm signal to remind the medical staff to take measures in time.

[0067] For example, the indicator light is used to flash and emit different colors of light to represent different warning reminders. For example, green light may indicate that everything is normal, yellow light may indicate the upcoming expiration of the usage time, and red light may indicate an emergency reminder or a situation that requires immediate action. The buzzer is used to emit different alarm sounds. For example, a gentle buzzer sound may indicate a daily time reminder, while a rapid buzzer sound may indicate that the temperature is too high and immediate operation is required.

[0068] The specific implementation process is as follows: The temperature sensor continuously monitors the skin temperature of the area where the patient uses the auxiliary device and transmits the data to the controller. The controller compares the data transmitted by the temperature sensor with the preset warning threshold.

[0069] When the temperature data exceeds or is lower than the warning threshold, the controller triggers the warning module. The indicator light in the warning module starts to flash and emits different colors of light to indicate different warning reminders. At the same time, the buzzer emits different alarm sounds to attract the attention of medical staff. After hearing the alarm sound and seeing the indicator light flashing, the medical staff should immediately check the patient's condition. According to the warning type (such as too high or too low temperature, etc.), corresponding measures should be taken, such as adjusting the treatment parameters, changing the ointment or stopping the treatment, etc.

[0070] Embodiment 3:

[0071] The difference from Embodiment 2 is that a user interaction module is embedded at the top of the housing 1. The user interaction module includes a display screen 15 and operation buttons. The display screen 15 is used to display the current treatment status, temperature data, remaining treatment time information, and the operation buttons are used to manually adjust the treatment parameters.

[0072] The specific implementation process is as follows: Both medical staff or patients can view information such as the current treatment status, temperature data, remaining treatment time, etc. through the display screen 15 in the user interaction module. Use the operation buttons to manually adjust the treatment parameters, such as treatment time, light wavelength, massage intensity, etc.

[0073] Medical staff or patients can view the treatment progress and temperature data in real time through the display screen 15. If it is necessary to adjust the treatment parameters, manual adjustment can be performed through the operation buttons. During the treatment process, if there are any questions or the need to pause the treatment, operations can be performed through the operation buttons.

[0074] Embodiment 4:

[0075] As shown in the appendix Figure 4 The difference from Embodiment 3 is that it includes a personalized module. The personalized module is signal-connected to the controller. The personalized module is used to automatically generate a set of personalized treatment plans suitable for the patient by inputting the patient's personal information, medical history, and treatment goals. The personalized treatment plan includes irradiation time, temperature threshold, and light wavelength parameters of the treatment lamp 12.

[0076] It also includes a remote monitoring and data transmission module. The remote monitoring and data transmission module is used to transmit the patient's physiological data, treatment parameters, and the working status of the device to a remote server or the intelligent terminal of medical staff (such as a computer, tablet, or mobile phone, etc.) in real time. Medical staff can view the patient's treatment progress at any time and remotely adjust the treatment plan as needed.

[0077] The specific implementation process is as follows: Preliminary preparation, evaluate the patient's physical condition, including basic information such as height, weight, and BMI; inquire about the patient's medical history, including past diseases and drug allergy history, etc.; communicate with the patient about the treatment goal to clarify the expected treatment effect.

[0078] Activate the personalized module of the auxiliary device for treating fatty liver with the Shugan Jianpi Huazhuo formula. Input the patient's personal information (such as name, age, gender, etc.), medical history, and treatment goals through the user interaction module. The personalized module automatically generates a set of personalized treatment plans suitable for the patient based on the input information, combined with the built-in algorithms and databases. The personalized treatment plan includes key information such as irradiation time, temperature threshold, and the light wavelength parameter of treatment lamp 12. After the treatment plan is generated, it is displayed on the display screen 15 of the user interaction module for the patient and medical staff to view. Adjust the treatment parameters according to the personalized treatment plan, such as irradiation time, temperature threshold, etc. After ensuring that all parameter settings are correct, activate treatment lamp 12 and the massage component to start the treatment.

[0079] The remote monitoring and data transmission module transmits the patient's physiological data (such as temperature data), treatment parameters (such as irradiation time, temperature threshold, etc.), and the working status of the device (such as whether treatment lamp 12 is turned on, whether the massage component is working, etc.) to the remote server or the intelligent terminal of the medical staff in real time. The medical staff can view the patient's treatment progress and the working status of the device at any time through the intelligent terminal.

[0080] Based on the data and analysis results on the remote server, the medical staff can remotely adjust the patient's treatment plan. The adjusted treatment plan will be sent to the patient's auxiliary device for treating fatty liver with the Shugan Jianpi Huazhuo formula through the remote monitoring and data transmission module and automatically updated on the display screen 15 of the user interaction module for the patient to view.

[0081] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples given for clear illustration and not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or variations derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
