Description

Hyperthermia device Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical care, and in particular to a thermotherapy device, wherein the physical energy generated by the heat source of the thermotherapy device can more easily penetrate into the deep tissue or lesion site of a thermotherapy area of ​​a living body (e.g., a human body) under the enhanced effect of air vibration waves, thereby enabling the thermotherapy device to provide a better thermotherapy effect. Background Art

[0002] A heat therapy device is a medical rehabilitation device that relieves discomfort or treats diseases by heating body tissues. For example, in a Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN210044242U, the inventor disclosed a heat compress device, which includes a heating element and a holding unit, wherein the heating unit includes a heating portion, and the holding unit includes a holding shell. The heating portion is arranged in the holding shell, and the inner side of the heating portion corresponds to the first side of the holding shell. When the heat compress device is used, the first side of the holding shell isolates the heating portion and the heated part. The heat generated by the heating portion can heat the heated part through air in the form of thermal radiation. Although the existing heat compress device can heat the heated part of the user in a similar way to hanging moxibustion, the heat generated by the heating portion of the heat compress device can usually only heat the surface or shallow layer of the heated part. It is difficult for the energy to quickly and effectively enter the deep tissue or lesion site of the heated part, resulting in time-consuming and inefficient heat therapy, thereby affecting the heat therapy effect. Summary of the Invention

[0003] An object of the present invention is to provide a thermotherapy device, wherein the physical energy generated by the heat source of the thermotherapy device can more easily penetrate into the deep tissue or lesion site of the thermotherapy area of ​​a living body (e.g., a human body), thereby enabling the thermotherapy device to provide a better thermotherapy effect.

[0004] One object of the present invention is to provide a thermal therapy device, wherein the air vibration waves generated by the air propulsion membrane of the air propulsion unit of the thermal therapy device during reciprocating motion can amplify the energy generated by the heat source and penetrate into the deep tissue or lesion area of ​​the thermal therapy area, thereby generating a significant biothermal effect, so that the thermal therapy device can provide better thermal therapy effect.

[0005] One object of the present invention is to provide a heat therapy device, wherein the air vibration waves generated by the air propulsion membrane of the air propulsion unit of the heat therapy device during reciprocating motion can more effectively transfer the far infrared rays generated by the heat source that are consistent with the wavelength of the living body, and perform rhythmic pulsed heat radiation massage on the heat-treated area, so that the far infrared energy is more easily absorbed by the body, thereby achieving a better heat therapy effect.

[0006] One purpose of the present invention is to provide a heat therapy device, in which the heat source is suspended and does not directly contact the part to be heat-treated, and can even be through clothing. As a result, the heat source can generate far-infrared heat with a higher temperature. After the air vibration wave generated by the reciprocating motion of the air-pushing membrane of the air-pushing unit is further strengthened, a non-contact, targeted, and rhythmic thermal radiation massage is performed on the lesion part requiring heat therapy, effectively avoiding the risk of skin burns caused by high temperature while ensuring that the heat therapy temperature is sufficient.

[0007] One object of the present invention is to provide a heat therapy device, wherein the frequency of the reciprocating motion of the air-pushing membrane of the air-pushing unit can be selected according to the part to be heat-treated, so that the frequency of the reciprocating motion of the air-pushing membrane is consistent with or close to the natural vibration frequency of the tissue or internal organs of the user's body corresponding to the part to be heat-treated. The resulting same-frequency resonance brings about a biological resonance effect, which prompts the relevant tissues and internal organs to absorb the energy generated by the heat source more efficiently and deeply in a good state of relaxation, thereby achieving a treatment and health-care effect far superior to conventional heat therapy.

[0008] One object of the present invention is to provide a thermal therapy device, wherein the reciprocating motion of the air-pushing membrane of the air-pushing unit generates air vibration waves. When the frequency of the air vibration waves is set to an extremely low frequency of 7.83 Hz, since the frequency of the brain's alpha waves is 8-12 Hz, which is basically the same frequency as the Schumann waves, the air vibration waves can resonate with the brain's alpha waves, massage and repair the sympathetic nervous system, so as to rebalance the autonomic nervous system, promote comprehensive and deep relaxation of the body's physiology and spirit, and enable the energy generated by the thermal therapy device to be fully and deeply absorbed by the body, thereby effectively improving the body's self-healing ability and obtaining non-drug rehabilitation and health care effects that exceed conventional ones.

[0009] One object of the present invention is to provide a thermotherapy device, wherein the frequency of the reciprocating motion of the air-pushing membrane of the air-pushing unit can be selected according to individual differences of users, so that the thermotherapy device can meet the personalized thermotherapy needs of different individuals.

[0010] One object of the present invention is to provide a thermal therapy device, wherein the air push unit allows the air push membrane to be driven to and fro by inputting an electrical signal into the voice coil, which not only enables the miniaturization of the thermal therapy device, making the thermal therapy device portable and convenient for users to perform thermal therapy anytime and anywhere, but also enables the muteness of the thermal therapy device, avoiding the user's emotions being affected by noise during thermal therapy, thereby allowing the user to calmly enjoy the thermal therapy process.

[0011] One object of the present invention is to provide a thermal therapy device, wherein the thermal therapy device suspends an energy amplifier below the first heating element of the heat source. When the air push membrane pushes the heated air through the amplifier perforations of the energy amplifier, the energy amplifier can increase the air flow rate, thereby achieving the effect of amplifying energy, which is crucial for improving the energy transfer capability and thermal therapy effect of the thermal therapy device.

[0012] One object of the present invention is to provide a thermal therapy device, wherein a gap is provided between the first heating element and the air-pushing membrane. When the air-pushing membrane pushes the air heated by the first heating element through the heating element perforation of the first heating element, the first heating element can increase the air flow rate, thereby achieving the effect of amplifying energy transfer, which is crucial for improving the thermal therapy effect of the thermal therapy device.

[0065] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are for illustrative purposes only, and those skilled in the art will readily appreciate other obvious variations. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description may be applied to other embodiments, variations, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0066] Those skilled in the art should understand that, in the disclosure of the present invention, the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside" and the like to indicate orientations or positional relationships are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, which are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0067] It is to be understood that the term "one" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element may be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the elements may be multiple, and the term "one" should not be understood as a limitation on the quantity.

[0068] With reference to Figures 1 to 11 of the accompanying drawings in the specification of the present invention, a thermal therapy device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be disclosed and explained in the following description, wherein the thermal therapy device includes a cover 10, a heat source 20 and an air propulsion unit 30.

[0069] Specifically, the cover 10 has a cover space 11 and an assembly hole 12 and a cover opening 13 respectively connected to opposite sides of the cover space 11. The heat source 20 is configured to increase the temperature of the cover space 11 of the cover 10. The air pushing unit 30 is assembled in the assembly hole 12 of the cover 10, and the air pushing unit 30 is used to generate an airflow in the cover space 11 of the cover 10 toward the cover opening 13, while forming an air vibration wave. When a user uses the thermal therapy device for thermal therapy, the cover opening 13 of the cover 10 is closed by the user's part to be thermally treated, so that the cover 10 covers the user's part to be thermally treated. In this way, the air pushing unit 30 can penetrate the heat generated by the heat source 20 into the deep tissue or lesion of the part to be thermally treated along with the air vibration wave, thereby enabling the thermal therapy device to provide a better thermal therapy effect.

[0070] Referring to Figures 2, 3, 6 and 7, the propulsion unit 30 includes an actuator 31 and a propulsion membrane 32 drivably connected to the actuator 31. The actuator 31 is installed in the assembly hole 12 of the cover shell 10, and the propulsion membrane 32 faces the cover opening 13 of the cover shell 10. The actuator 31 is configured to drive the propulsion membrane 32 to move back and forth to push the air in the cover space 11 of the cover shell 10 toward the cover opening 13 to form an airflow and generate air vibration waves.

[0071] It is worth mentioning that the material of the pusher membrane 32 does not constitute a limitation on the content of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, as long as it can be driven to reciprocate by the actuator 31. For example, in some examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the pusher membrane 32 may be made of rubber, while in other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the pusher membrane 32 may be made of metal, alloy, plastic, or other polymer materials.

[0072] In this specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention shown in Figures 1 to 11, the push membrane 32 is located outside the cover space 11 of the cover 10, and the push membrane 32 faces the assembly hole 12 of the cover 10. Since the assembly hole 12 of the cover 10 and the cover opening 13 are located on opposite sides of the cover 10, the push membrane 32 faces the cover opening 13 of the cover 10. When the actuator 31 drives the push membrane 32 to reciprocate, the push membrane 32 pushes the air in the cover space 11 of the cover 10 to flow toward the cover opening 13 to form an airflow, and at the same time generates air vibration waves. Optionally, in other examples of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the push membrane 32 is accommodated in the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10. When the actuator 31 drives the push membrane 32 to reciprocate in the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10, the push membrane 32 pushes the air in the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10 to flow toward the shell opening 13 to form an airflow and generate air vibration waves.

[0073] Further, referring to Figures 3 to 7, the actuator 31 includes an assembly frame 311, a magnetic return system 312 and a voice coil 313, the magnetic return system 312 is assembled on the assembly frame 311, and the magnetic return system 312 has a magnetic gap 3121, the upper end of the voice coil 313 extends to the magnetic gap 3121 of the magnetic return system 312, so that the voice coil 313 and the magnetic return system 312 are coupled, and the lower end of the voice coil 313 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the propulsion membrane 32, wherein the assembly frame 311 is assembled to the assembly hole 12 of the cover 10, so that the actuator 31 is assembled to the assembly hole 12 of the cover 10. When an electrical signal is input into the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31, the voice coil 313 and the magnetic return system 312 interact with each other to drive the push-air membrane 32 to move back and forth, so that the push-air membrane 32 pushes the air in the shell space 11 of the cover 10 toward the cover opening 13 to form an airflow and generate air vibration waves.

[0074] It is worth mentioning that the "up" and "down" described in the present invention are relative to the directions of Figure 4, and do not constitute a limitation to the thermal therapy device of the present invention. For example, the upper end of the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 refers to the end of the voice coil 313 away from the cover 10, and accordingly, the lower end of the voice coil 313 refers to the end of the voice coil 313 close to the cover 10, and the upper side of the push membrane 32 refers to the side of the push membrane 32 facing away from the cover opening 13 of the cover 10, and accordingly, the lower side of the push membrane 32 refers to the side of the cover opening 13 facing the cover 10.

[0075] In this specific example of the hyperthermia device of the present invention, the actuator 31 drives the propeller membrane 32 to reciprocate by inputting an electrical signal to the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31. This facilitates controlling the frequency of the propeller membrane 32's reciprocating motion by controlling the frequency of the electrical signal input to the voice coil 313. This frequency is then aligned with or similar to the natural vibration frequency of the tissue or internal organs of the user's body corresponding to the treated area. Preferably, the reciprocating frequency of the propeller membrane 32 is approximately 7.83 Hz (which is consistent with the frequency of Schumann waves). The resulting co-frequency resonance creates a bioresonance effect, promoting deep relaxation of the tissues and internal organs, allowing heat or energy to be more efficiently transferred to the deep tissues of the treated area. Through deep energy absorption, this achieves a healing and health-promoting effect far superior to conventional hyperthermia. The reciprocating frequency of the propeller membrane 32 is selected based on individual user differences, allowing the hyperthermia device to meet the hyperthermia needs of different individuals. In other words, the hyperthermia device of the present invention can meet the personalized needs of users. In some specific examples of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the operating frequency of the actuator 31 can be selected within the range of 6 Hz-10 Hz.

[0076] Moreover, by inputting an electrical signal into the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 so that the actuator 31 drives the push air membrane 32 to move back and forth, not only can the thermal therapy device be miniaturized, making the thermal therapy device portable and convenient for users to perform thermal therapy anytime and anywhere, but also the thermal therapy device can be made silent, avoiding the user's emotions being affected by noise during thermal therapy, so that the user can calmly enjoy the thermal therapy process, which is crucial for improving the thermal therapy effect of the thermal therapy device.

[0077] Continuing to refer to Figures 3 and 4, the air pushing unit 30 includes a deformable connecting ring 33, the outer side of the connecting ring 33 is connected to the assembly frame 311, and the inner side is connected to the air pushing membrane 32. When the electrical signal is input into the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 and the actuator 31 drives the air pushing membrane 32 to reciprocate, the connecting ring 33 can be pulled and deformed by the air pushing membrane 32, and the maximum distance that the air pushing membrane 32 is pushed is limited by the connecting ring 33. In this way, not only the reliability of the air pushing unit 30 can be improved, but also it is beneficial to control the air flow and air vibration wave energy formed by the air in the shell space 11 of the cover 10, so that the air flow and air vibration wave formed by the air in the shell space 11 of the cover 10 meet the user's thermal therapy needs.

[0078] Furthermore, the connecting ring 33 and the propulsion membrane 32 seal the assembly hole 12 of the housing 10, so that when the actuator 31 drives the propulsion membrane 32 to reciprocate, the air in the housing space 11 of the housing 10 is prevented from flowing in a direction away from the housing opening 13 of the housing 10. This ensures that all air flows toward the housing opening 13 of the housing 10. In other words, the air vibration waves move toward the housing opening 13, which helps fully utilize the energy of the propulsion unit 30 and reduces the power requirement of the propulsion unit 30. Since the power requirement of the propulsion unit 30 of the thermotherapy device is reduced, it is not only conducive to miniaturization of the propulsion unit 30, but also helps reduce the energy consumption of the thermotherapy device and improve the battery life of the thermotherapy device.

[0079] Preferably, the cross-section of the connecting ring 33 is arched to allow the propulsion membrane 32 to be pushed a greater distance. In some examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the central portion of the propulsion membrane 32 may protrude toward the housing space 11 of the housing 10. In other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the central portion of the propulsion membrane 32 may protrude toward the magnetic loop system 312. In other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the propulsion membrane 32 may also be a flat surface.

[0080] It is worth noting that the connection method between the outer side of the connecting ring 33 and the assembly frame 311 is not limited in the thermotherapy device of the present invention. For example, in some examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the outer side of the connecting ring 33 and the assembly frame 311 can be bonded together using glue. In other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the outer side of the connecting ring 33 can be integrally bonded to the assembly frame 311. For example, an insert molding process can be used to integrally bond the outer side of the connecting ring 33 to the assembly frame 311.

[0081] The connection method between the inner side of the connecting ring 33 and the push membrane 32 is not limited in the thermotherapy device of the present invention. For example, in some examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the inner side of the connecting ring 33 and the push membrane 32 can be bonded by glue. In other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the inner side of the connecting ring 33 can be integrated with the push membrane 32. For example, the insert injection molding process can make the inner side of the connecting ring 33 integrated with the push membrane 32. In this specific example of the thermotherapy device of the present invention shown in Figures 1 to 11, the connecting ring 33 and the push membrane 32 can be one-piece, that is, the connecting ring 33 and the push membrane 32 can be integrally formed.

[0082] Continuing with reference to Figures 3 and 4 , the pusher unit 30 includes a deformable stabilizing ring 34. The outer side of the stabilizing ring 34 is connected to the assembly frame 311, and the inner side is connected to the voice coil 313. When an electrical signal is input to the voice coil 313, causing the actuator 31 to drive the pusher membrane 32 to reciprocate, the voice coil 313 can pull on the stabilizing ring 34, causing it to deform. In this way, the stabilizing ring 34 can limit the movement direction of the voice coil 313 and prevent the voice coil 313 from deflecting. Preferably, the cross-section of the stabilizing ring 34 is wavy or "S"-shaped, so that the pusher membrane 32 can be pushed a greater distance.

[0083] In this specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention shown in Figures 1 to 11, since the lower end of the voice coil 313 is connected to the upper side of the push membrane 32, the push membrane 32 is connected to the assembly frame 311 through the connecting ring 33, and the middle part of the voice coil 313 is connected to the assembly frame 311 through the stabilizing ring 34, when the electrical signal is input into the voice coil 313 and the actuator 31 drives the push membrane 32 to reciprocate, the voice coil 313 can be prevented from deflecting, so that the push membrane 32 can effectively push the air in the shell space 11 of the cover 10 to form an airflow, generating air vibration waves.

[0084] Referring to Figures 3 to 5 , the heat source 20 includes a first heating element 21 attached to the push-air membrane 32, for example, by glue. When powered, the first heating element 21 generates heat, thereby increasing the temperature of the housing space 11 of the housing 10. In some examples of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the first heating element 21 may be a graphene electric heating film, which generates a thermal radiation effect when powered, heating the air in the housing space 11 of the housing 10, thereby increasing the temperature of the housing space 11 of the housing 10. Simultaneously, the reciprocating motion of the push-air membrane 32 toward the housing opening 13 generates air flow and air vibration waves, which in turn generate a heat wave effect on the air heated by the first heating element 21, thereby enhancing the thermal therapy sensation and significantly increasing the efficacy of the thermal therapy. At the same time, because the graphene electric heating film typically radiates far-infrared rays with a wavelength of 5-14 microns in a planar manner when powered, which is roughly consistent with the far-infrared rays emitted by living organisms, which have a wavelength of approximately 4-15 microns, the far-infrared energy is better absorbed by living organisms due to the principle of frequency resonance. As the air-pushing membrane 32 reciprocates toward the housing opening 13, the far-infrared energy generated by the heated first heating element 21 can provide a rhythmic, pulsed thermal radiation massage to the area being treated, making the far-infrared energy more easily absorbed by body tissues and internal organs, thereby achieving a better thermal treatment effect.

[0085] Continuing with reference to Figures 3 to 5 , the thermotherapy device includes a thermal insulation unit 40, which includes a first thermal insulation element 41. The first thermal insulation element 41 is attached to the push membrane 32, for example, by glue. The first thermal insulation element 41 is used to prevent heat generated by the first heating element 21 from being conducted toward the side of the housing space 11 away from the housing 10, thereby effectively utilizing the heat generated by the first heating element 21 to heat the air within the housing space 11 of the housing 10. Furthermore, the first thermal insulation element 41 prevents overheating of the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31, thereby preventing the magnetic properties of the voice coil 313 from being affected after power is applied. This ensures that the actuator 31 stably provides driving force to reciprocate the push membrane 32, thereby enabling the thermotherapy device to provide stable and controllable airflow and generate stable and controllable air vibration waves.

[0086] That is, in the specific example of the thermotherapy device of the present invention shown in Figures 1 to 11, the first thermal insulation element 41, the push membrane 32, and the first heating element 21 form a sandwich structure stacked in sequence. Alternatively, in the specific example of the thermotherapy device shown in Figure 12, the push membrane 32, the first thermal insulation element 41, and the first heating element 21 form a sandwich structure stacked in sequence, that is, the first thermal insulation element 41 is attached to the lower side of the push membrane 32, and the first heating element 21 is attached to the side of the first thermal insulation element 41 facing away from the push membrane 32. In this way, the first thermal insulation element 41 prevents the heat generated by the first heating element 21 from being transferred to the push membrane 32, thereby preventing the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 from overheating and preventing the magnetic properties of the voice coil 313 from being affected after power is applied, thereby ensuring that the actuator 31 stably provides driving force for driving the push membrane 32 to reciprocate.

[0087] Continuing to refer to Figures 3, 4, 6 and 7, the heat source 20 includes a second heating element 22, and the cover 10 includes an inner shell 14 and an outer shell 15, the inner shell 14 forms the cover space 11, and the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15 are installed with each other to keep the second heating element 22 between the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15, wherein the heat generated by the second heating element 22 when powered can be conducted or radiated to the cover space 11 of the cover 10 through the inner shell 14, for heating the air in the cover space 11 of the cover 10.

[0088] Preferably, the second heating element 22 can be bonded to the surface of the inner housing 14 facing the outer housing 15 by glue, so that the second heating element 22 is reliably held between the inner housing 14 and the outer housing 15 .

[0089] Preferably, the second heating element 22 is arranged in a ring shape, which surrounds the inner shell 14, so that the second heating element 22 surrounds the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10. This is conducive to ensuring the uniform temperature of the cover shell 10 and avoiding the undesirable phenomenon of one side of the cover shell 10 being cold and the other side being hot, thereby improving the user's comfort and the reliability of the therapeutic effect when using the thermal therapy device for thermal therapy.

[0090] Continuing with reference to Figures 3, 4, 6, and 7, the thermal insulation unit 40 includes a second thermal insulation element 42, which is located outside the second heating element 22. The second thermal insulation element 42 is used to prevent the heat generated by the second heating element 22 from being conducted toward the outer shell 15, thereby effectively utilizing the heat generated by the second heating element 22 to heat the air within the housing space 11 of the housing 10. Preferably, the second thermal insulation element 42 is directly attached to the outer side of the second heating element 22 so that the second thermal insulation element 42 is located outside the second heating element 22. That is, the inner shell 14, the second heating element 22, and the second thermal insulation element 42 form a sandwich structure stacked in sequence.

[0091] That is, the second heating element 22 and the second thermal insulation element 42 are located between the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15 that are installed with each other, so that the second heating element 22 and the second thermal insulation element 42 are hidden by the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15, so that the second heating element 22 and the second thermal insulation element 42 are visually invisible, thereby protecting the second heating element 22 and the second thermal insulation element 42, and improving the aesthetics and cleanability of the thermal therapy device.

[0092] It is worth mentioning that the installation method of the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15 of the cover 10 is not limited in the thermal therapy device of the present invention. For example, in this specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, referring to Figures 3, 4, 6 and 7, the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15 are both roughly annular, the inner shell 14 has an upper protrusion 141 and a lower protrusion 142, the outer shell 15 has an upper groove 151 and a lower groove 152, the The outer shell 15 surrounds the outer side of the inner shell 14, the upper protrusion 141 of the inner shell 14 is snapped into the upper slot 151 of the outer shell 15, and the lower protrusion 142 of the inner shell 14 is snapped into the lower slot 152 of the outer shell 15, so that the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15 are installed with each other, thereby maintaining the second heating element 22 and the second heat insulation element 42 between the inner shell 14 and the outer shell 15.

[0093] Preferably, in this specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention shown in Figures 1 to 11, the upper part of the inner shell 14 and the upper part of the outer shell 15 can be ultrasonically welded to prevent the upper part of the inner shell 14 and the upper part of the outer shell 15 from falling off and to avoid the formation of a gap between the upper part of the inner shell 14 and the upper part of the outer shell 15. Accordingly, the lower part of the inner shell 14 and the lower part of the outer shell 15 can be ultrasonically welded to prevent the lower part of the inner shell 14 and the lower part of the outer shell 15 from falling off and to avoid the formation of a gap between the lower part of the inner shell 14 and the lower part of the outer shell 15.

[0094] Optionally, in other examples of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the top of the inner shell 14 and the top of the outer shell 15 can be bonded by glue to prevent the top of the inner shell 14 and the top of the outer shell 15 from falling off and to avoid the formation of a gap between the top of the inner shell 14 and the top of the outer shell 15. Correspondingly, the bottom of the inner shell 14 and the bottom of the outer shell 15 can be bonded by glue to prevent the bottom of the inner shell 14 and the bottom of the outer shell 15 from falling off and to avoid the formation of a gap between the bottom of the inner shell 14 and the bottom of the outer shell 15.

[0095] Optionally, in other examples of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the top of the inner shell 14 and the top of the outer shell 15 can be connected by snaps to prevent the top of the inner shell 14 and the top of the outer shell 15 from falling off and to avoid the formation of a gap between the top of the inner shell 14 and the top of the outer shell 15. Correspondingly, the bottom of the inner shell 14 and the bottom of the outer shell 15 can be connected by snaps or glued to prevent the bottom of the inner shell 14 and the bottom of the outer shell 15 from falling off and to avoid the formation of a gap between the bottom of the inner shell 14 and the bottom of the outer shell 15.

[0096] Continuing with reference to Figures 2 to 7 , the thermotherapy device includes an energy amplifier 50 having a plurality of amplifier perforations 51. The energy amplifier 50 is located below the first heating element 21 and housed within the housing space 11 of the housing 10. When the air-pushing membrane 32 pushes heated air through the amplifier perforations 51 of the energy amplifier 50, the energy amplifier 50 increases the air flow rate, directing the air toward the housing opening 13 of the housing 10, thereby amplifying the energy. This is crucial for enhancing the thermotherapy effect of the thermotherapy device. Furthermore, because the energy amplifier 50 is suspended below the air-pushing membrane 32 and the first heating element 21, it conceals the air-pushing membrane 32 and the first heating element 21, thereby protecting them.

[0097] In the hyperthermia device of the present invention, the energy amplifier 50 is made of a metal material with good thermal conductivity or a high-temperature-resistant, high-thermal-conductivity polymer material. For example, the energy amplifier 50 can be formed from a cold-rolled steel plate, aluminum plate, or magnesium plate through a stamping process, or a high-temperature-resistant polymer material through injection molding. Thus, on the one hand, when the air-pushing membrane 32 pushes heated air through the amplifier perforations 51 of the energy amplifier 50, the energy amplifier 50 can amplify energy. On the other hand, when the energy amplifier 50 is subjected to force, it is not easily deformed, thereby protecting the air-pushing membrane 32 and the first heating element 21.

[0098] Preferably, the amplifier edge 52 of the energy amplifier 50 extends upward and outward so that the amplifier edge 52 is clamped between the cover 10 and the assembly frame 311 of the actuator 31 of the propulsion unit 30, thereby suspending the energy amplifier 50 below the propulsion membrane 32, the connecting ring 33 and the first heating element 21, and the energy amplifier 50 hides the propulsion membrane 32, the connecting ring 33 and the first heating element 21 to provide protection for the propulsion membrane 32, the connecting ring 33 and the first heating element 21. It can be understood that since the amplifier edge 52 of the energy amplifier 50 extends upward and outward, and the amplifier edge 52 is clamped between the cover 10 and the assembly frame 311 of the actuator 31, there can be a larger gap between the middle part of the energy amplifier 50 and the push membrane 32. In this way, when the push membrane 32 and the first heating element 21 attached to the push membrane 32 are driven to reciprocate by the actuator 31, not only can the first heating element 21 be prevented from touching the energy amplifier 50, but an airflow can also be formed above the energy amplifier 50, so that when the airflow passes through the amplifier through-hole 51 of the energy amplifier 50, it is accelerated and shot toward the cover opening 13 of the cover 10. Alternatively, in other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the amplifier edge 52 of the energy amplifier 50 may be glued to the housing 10 and / or the assembly bracket 311 of the actuator 31 of the air-pushing unit 30, or the amplifier edge 52 of the energy amplifier 50 may be screwed to the housing 10 or the assembly bracket 311 of the actuator 31 of the air-pushing unit 30. Alternatively, in other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the energy amplifier 50 is fixed within a plastic outer ring, and the plastic inner ring is glued or screwed to the assembly bracket 311 and placed below the air-pushing membrane 32 and the first heating element 21.

[0099] Continuing to refer to Figures 3, 4, 6 to 9, the thermal therapy device includes at least one battery 60 and a main control circuit board 70. The battery 60, the first heating element 21 and the second heating element 22 of the heat source 20, and the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 of the air propulsion unit 30 are respectively connected to the main control circuit board 70. The main control circuit board 70 is used to control the state of the battery 60 supplying power to the first heating element 21 and / or the second heating element 22 and to control the state of the battery 60 supplying power to the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31, wherein when the main control circuit board 70 controls the battery 60 to supply power to the first heating element 21 and / or the second heating element 22, the first heating element 21 and / or the second heating element 22 can generate heat to heat the air in the cover space 11 of the cover 10, wherein when the main control circuit board 70 controls the battery 60 to supply power to the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31, the voice coil 313 and the magnetic return system 312 interact to drive the push membrane 32 to reciprocate, so that the push membrane 32 pushes the air in the cover space 11 of the cover 10 toward the cover opening 13 to form an airflow, and at the same time generates air vibration waves.

[0100] Continuing to refer to Figures 3, 4, 6 to 11, the thermal therapy device includes a bracket 80, which is installed on the cover 10 and / or the air push unit 30, and the battery 60 and the main control circuit board 70 are both installed on the bracket 80. In this way, the bracket 80 can prevent the battery 60 and the main control circuit board 70 from being displaced relative to the cover 10 and the air push unit 30, so as to ensure the reliability of the connection relationship between the battery 60 and the main control circuit board 70, the connection relationship between the first heating element 21 and the second heating element 22 of the heat source 20 and the main control circuit board 70, and the connection relationship between the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31.

[0101] That is to say, the bracket 80 is an installation platform for installing the actuator 31, the battery 60 and the main control circuit board 70, so that even when the thermal therapy device is suddenly subjected to force, for example, when the thermal therapy device falls to the ground or directly touches other objects, the bracket 80 can prevent the battery 60 and the main control circuit board 70 from being displaced relative to the cover 10 and the air propulsion unit 30, thereby preventing the wires used to connect the battery 60 and the main control circuit board 70 from becoming desoldered, preventing the wires used to connect the first heating element 21, the second heating element 22 and the main control circuit board 70 from becoming desoldered, and preventing the wires used to connect the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 and the main circuit board 70 from becoming desoldered, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection relationship between the battery 60 and the main circuit board 70, the connection relationship between the first heating element 21 and the second heating element 22 of the heat source 20 and the main circuit board 70, and the connection relationship between the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31. At the same time, the bracket 80 can make the product modular and integrated, with economy, high efficiency and consistency of product quality during large-scale mass production, while also meeting the automatic assembly process of intelligent factories.

[0102] In this specific example of the thermal therapy device shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 11 , the top of the bracket 80 is sleeved on the magnetic return system 312 of the actuator 31 , and the bottom is fixedly mounted on the housing 10 .

[0103] Specifically, the bracket 80 includes a first ring body 81, a second ring body 82 and multiple extension arms 83 and a receiving cavity 84. The first ring body 81 has a first through-hole 811, and the second ring body 82 has a second through-hole 821. From a side view, the first ring body 81 and the second ring body 82 have different height positions. These extension arms 83 extend between the first ring body 81 and the second ring body 82 in a mutually spaced manner, so that the receiving cavity 84 is defined by the first ring body 81, the second ring body 82 and the extension arms 83, and the first through-hole 811 of the first ring body 81 is connected to the receiving cavity 84, and the second through-hole 821 of the second ring body 82 is connected to the receiving cavity 84. The receiving cavity 84 is connected to the outside world through the gap between adjacent extension arms 83. The inner diameter of the first through-hole 811 of the first ring body 81 is consistent with the outer diameter of the magnetic return system 312 of the actuator 31, and the first ring body 81 is sleeved on the magnetic return system 312 of the actuator 31. The second ring body 82 surrounds the bottom end of the assembly frame 311 to accommodate the main body of the actuator 31 in the accommodating cavity 84 of the bracket 80, wherein the second ring body 82 can be screwed to the cover 10, so that the top of the bracket 80 is sleeved on the magnetic return system 312 of the actuator 31, the bottom is fixedly mounted on the cover 10, and the top is sleeved on the magnetic return system 312 of the actuator 31.

[0104] Preferably, the size of the first ring body 81 is smaller than that of the second ring body 82, and the extension arm 83 extends obliquely between the first ring body 81 and the second ring body 82, so that the bracket 80 forms a structure that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, so that the shape of the bracket 80 is adapted to the shape of the propulsion unit 30.

[0105] Continuing with reference to Figures 8 to 11, the bracket 80 further includes at least one battery compartment 85, which is disposed on the first ring body 81. The battery 60 is installed in the battery compartment 85, thereby mounting the battery 60 on the bracket 80. In a specific example of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the bracket 80 may have four battery compartments 85, which are integrally formed at different positions on the first ring body 81. Accordingly, the number of batteries 60 is four, and each battery compartment 85 is installed with one battery 60.

[0106] Continuing to refer to Figures 8 to 11, the bracket 80 further includes a group of extension columns 86, which extend upward from the first ring body 81 respectively, wherein the main control circuit board 70 can be screwed to the extension columns 86 to install the main control circuit board 70 on the bracket 80.

[0107] 6 and 8 , the thermotherapy device further includes a control switch 90, comprising a switch circuit board 91 and at least one switch 92 mounted on the switch circuit board 91. The switch circuit board 91 is mounted on the bracket 80 and connected to the main control circuit board 70. A user can operate the thermotherapy device via the switch 92, causing the main control circuit board 70 to control the state in which the battery 60 supplies power to the first heating element 21 and / or the second heating element 22, as well as the state in which the battery 60 supplies power to the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31. Preferably, the switch circuit board 91 can be screwed to the second ring 82 of the bracket 80 to mount the control switch 90 on the bracket 80.

[0108] 7 , the thermal therapy device includes a charging terminal 100 , which is connected to the main control circuit board 70 . A user can charge the battery 60 with electric energy through the charging terminal 100 and the main control circuit board 70 .

[0109] Referring to Figures 1 to 4, 6 and 7, the thermal therapy device further includes an outer cover 110, which is installed on the cover shell 10 to cover the air pushing unit 30, the battery 60, the main control circuit board 70, the bracket 80, the control switch 90 and the charging terminal 100, thereby protecting the air pushing unit 30, the battery 60, the main control circuit board 70, the bracket 80, the control switch 90 and the charging terminal 100, wherein the outer cover 110 has a plurality of gas exchange channels 1101, which connect the inside and outside of the outer cover 110 to allow the air pushing unit 30 to operate normally. It can be understood that when the actuator 31 drives the push membrane 32 to move back and forth, on the one hand, the push membrane 32 can reciprocate and drive the air flow in the cover space 11 of the cover 10, and on the other hand, the push membrane 32 can drive the air flow in the outer cover 110. The air in the outer cover 110 can be exchanged with the external gas through the gas exchange channel 1101 to reduce the load of the actuator 31 and reduce the power requirement of the actuator 31. At the same time, it can also help the actuator 31 to dissipate heat outward to avoid overheating of the actuator 31, so as to maintain the stable operation of the thermal therapy device.

[0110] It is worth mentioning that the mounting method of the outer cover 110 and the housing 10 is not limited in the thermotherapy device of the present invention. For example, in this specific example of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the bottom of the outer cover 110 surrounds the top of the housing 10 in a manner such that the inner wall of the outer cover 110 and the outer wall of the housing 10 fit together. The outer cover 110 and the housing 10 can be joined together by gluing, ultrasonic welding, or fixed by a snap-fit ​​structure or screws.

[0111] Preferably, the outer cover 110 has at least one switch channel 1102, and the switch 92 of the control switch 90 corresponds to the switch channel 1102 of the outer cover 110, so as to allow a user to operate the switch 92 from the outside of the outer cover 110. In this specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention shown in Figures 1 to 11, the control switch 90 further includes at least one switch cap 93, which is mounted on the switch 92 and extends from the inside of the outer cover 110 to the outside through the switch channel 1102 of the outer cover 110, so as to allow a user to operate the switch 92 from the outside of the outer cover 110 by pressing the switch cap 93.

[0112] Preferably, the outer cover 110 has a charging channel 1103, the charging terminal 100 is arranged on the outer cover 110, and the position of the charging terminal 100 corresponds to the position of the charging channel 1103 of the outer cover 110, so that the user can insert the charging head into the charging terminal 100 so that electric energy can be replenished to the battery 60 through the charging terminal 100 and the main control circuit board 70.

[0113] FIG13 illustrates a modified example of the thermotherapy device according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the thermotherapy device illustrated in FIG1 through FIG11 , in this specific example of the thermotherapy device illustrated in FIG13 , the first heating element 21 of the heat source 20 is embedded within the pusher membrane 32, forming a one-piece structure. In other words, the pusher membrane 32 wraps around the exterior of the first heating element 21. It is understood that an insert molding process can embed the first heating element 21 within the pusher membrane 32.

[0114] FIG14 shows another modified example of the thermotherapy device according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the thermotherapy device shown in FIG1 to FIG11 , in this specific example of the thermotherapy device shown in FIG14 , the first heating element 21 of the heat source 20 forms the air-pushing membrane 32. In other words, the first heating element 21 and the air-pushing membrane 32 are the same component.

[0115] FIG15 shows another modified example of the thermotherapy device according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the thermotherapy device shown in FIG1 through FIG11 , in this specific example of the thermotherapy device shown in FIG15 , the first thermal insulation element 41 of the thermal insulation unit 40 forms the air-pushing membrane 32. In other words, the first thermal insulation element 41 and the air-pushing membrane 32 are the same component.

[0116] Figures 16 to 20 show a heat therapy device according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. Different from the heat therapy device shown in Figures 1 to 11, in the heat therapy device shown in Figures 16 to 20, the first heating element 21 of the heat source 20 is not mounted on the push-air membrane 32, but is suspended below the push-air membrane 32. There is a gap between the first heating element 21 and the push-air membrane 32, and the first heating element 21 is accommodated in the cover space 11 of the cover 10. The first heating element 21 has a plurality of heating element through holes 211.

[0117] When the first heating element 21 is powered and generates heat, the heat generated by the first heating element 21 can heat the air in the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10 and increase the temperature of the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10. When the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 is powered and allows the actuator 31 to push the push membrane 32 back and forth, the push membrane 32 pushes the air between the push membrane 32 and the first heating element 21 through the heating element perforation 211 of the first heating element 21. The first heating element 21 can increase the air flow rate so that the air is ejected toward the cover opening 13 of the cover shell 10, thereby achieving an energy amplification effect.

[0118] That is to say, by suspending the first heating element 21 below the push membrane 32 with a gap between the first heating element 21 and the push membrane 32, not only can the first heating element 21 heat the air in the shell space 11 of the cover 10 and increase the temperature of the shell space 11 of the cover 10, but also the air flow rate is increased when the actuator 31 pushes the push membrane 32 back and forth, so that the air is ejected toward the shell space 11 of the cover 10, achieving the effect of energy amplification. At the same time, since the first heating element 21 does not need to be driven by the push membrane 32, the actuator 31 only needs to push the push membrane 32 back and forth, so that the thermal therapy device reduces the power requirement of the actuator 31, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the actuator 31, which is crucial for improving the endurance of the thermal therapy device.

[0119] At the same time, by suspending the first heating element 21 below the push membrane 32 with a gap between the first heating element 21 and the push membrane 32, the first heating element 21 can be independent of the push membrane 32 that needs to perform reciprocating motion, thereby making the assembly process and structure of the first heating element 21 simpler.

[0120] Preferably, the heating element edge 212 of the first heating element 21 extends upward and outward so that the heating element edge 212 is clamped between the cover 10 and the assembly frame 311 of the actuator 31 of the propulsion unit 30, thereby suspending the first heating element 21 below the propulsion membrane 32.

[0121] Preferably, the heating element edge 212 of the first heating element 21 and the amplifier edge 52 of the energy amplifier 50 are clamped between the cover 10 and the assembly frame 311 of the actuator 31 after stacking, so as to suspend the first heating element 21 below the propulsion membrane 32 and set the energy amplifier 50 below the first heating element 21.

[0122] FIG21 shows another modified example of the thermal therapy device according to the above-mentioned preferred embodiment of the present invention. Different from the thermal therapy device shown in FIG1 to FIG11, in this specific example of the thermal therapy device shown in FIG21, the energy amplifier 50 and the cover 10 are an integrated structure.

[0123] Figure 22 shows another modified example of the thermal therapy device according to the above-mentioned preferred embodiment of the present invention. Different from the thermal therapy device shown in Figures 1 to 11, in this specific example of the thermal therapy device shown in Figure 22, the thermal therapy device includes a temperature detector 120, and the temperature detector 120 is connected to the main control circuit board 70. The temperature detector 120 is used to detect the temperature of the cover space 11 of the cover 10 and feed back the temperature to the main control circuit board 70. The main control circuit board 70 controls the state of the battery 60 supplying power to the first heating element 41, the second heating element 42 and / or the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31 according to the feedback result of the temperature sensor 120. Specifically, when the feedback result of the temperature detector 120 makes the temperature of the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10 within an appropriate range, the main control circuit board 70 can control the battery 60 to continue to supply power to the first heating element 41, the second heating element 42 and / or the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31; when the feedback result of the temperature detector 120 makes the temperature of the shell space 11 of the cover shell 10 too high (exceeding a preset threshold), the main control circuit board 70 can control the battery 60 to stop supplying power to the first heating element 41, the second heating element 42 and the voice coil 313 of the actuator 31, so as to avoid damage to the user's heat-treated part due to excessive temperature and protect the heat therapy device.

[0124] In a specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the temperature detector 120 is implemented as a thermistor.

[0125] Continuing with reference to FIG. 22 , in a specific example of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the temperature detector 120 is mounted on the surface of the first heating element 21, so that the temperature detector 120 can be used to detect the temperature of the housing space 11 of the housing 10. Alternatively, in other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the temperature detector 120 can also be mounted on the surface of the inner shell 14, the surface of the energy amplifier 50, or the surface of the first thermal insulation element 41.

[0126] FIG23 shows another variation of the thermotherapy device according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the thermotherapy device shown in FIG1 through FIG11 , this embodiment of the thermotherapy device shown in FIG23 includes a breathable protective cover 130. The periphery of the protective cover 130 is disposed on the housing 10 to shield the energy amplifier 50, rendering it invisible and protecting it. For example, the protective cover 130 not only protects against dust and / or water but also prevents damage to the energy amplifier 50 from direct impact or pressure. Because the protective cover 130 is breathable, the hot air pushed by the air-pushing membrane 32, after passing through the amplifier perforations 51 of the energy amplifier 50, can further pass through the protective cover 130 and act on the user's body part being treated. This prevents excessive internal pressure in the housing space 11 of the housing 10, thereby protecting the air-pushing unit 30.

[0127] In a specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the protective cover 130 is a knitted piece.

[0128] In this specific example of the thermal therapy device shown in FIG. 23 , the periphery of the protective cover 130 can be bonded to the inner shell 14 of the cover shell 10 by glue, so as to set the periphery of the protective cover 130 to the cover shell 10 .

[0129] In a specific example of the thermal therapy device of the present invention, the protective cover 130 is elastic. When a user uses the thermal therapy device, the protective cover 130 can be deformed according to the shape of the user's thermally treated part, so that the user's thermally treated part can close the cover opening 13 of the cover 10.

[0130] FIG24 shows another variation of the thermotherapy device according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the thermotherapy device shown in FIG1 to FIG11 , this embodiment of the thermotherapy device shown in FIG24 further includes a flexible inner lining ring 140 disposed on the housing 10 and protruding from the edge of the housing opening 13 of the housing 10. When a user uses the thermotherapy device, the inner lining ring 140 directly contacts the area being treated. This provides a more comfortable feel for the user due to the flexibility of the inner lining ring 140. Furthermore, the inner lining ring 140 can deform according to the shape of the area being treated, i.e., it can adapt to different areas of the user's body to ensure that the area being treated is sealed against the housing opening 13 of the housing 10. In some embodiments of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the inner lining ring 140 can be made of a skin-friendly material, such as, but not limited to, silicone, to enhance comfort. Especially in a cold environment, when the user starts to use the thermotherapy device, only the inner lining ring 140 directly contacts the thermotherapy part, which can prevent the thermotherapy part from being contacted by the cooler part of the thermotherapy device, thereby improving comfort.

[0131] It is worth mentioning that the specific manner in which the inner lining ring 140 is arranged on the housing 10 is not limited in the thermotherapy device of the present invention. For example, in this specific example of the thermotherapy device shown in FIG. 24 , the inner lining ring 140 can be bonded to the housing 10 by glue to set the inner lining ring 140 on the housing 10. Alternatively, in other examples of the thermotherapy device of the present invention, the inner lining ring 140 can be arranged on the housing 10 by threaded assembly, or the inner lining ring 140 can be arranged on the housing 10 based on friction. It is understandable that in the embodiment in which the inner lining ring 140 is arranged on the housing 10 by threaded assembly or based on friction, the inner lining ring 140 is detachable, so that the inner lining ring 140 can be easily cleaned or replaced to improve the hygiene of the thermotherapy device.

[0132] 24 , in this specific example of the thermal therapy device, the periphery of the protective cover 130 can be attached to the inner lining ring 140, which suspends the protective cover 130 from the underside of the energy amplifier 50. For example, glue can be used to attach the periphery of the protective cover 130 to the inner lining ring 140.

The objectives of the present invention have been fully and effectively achieved. The functional and structural principles of the present invention have been demonstrated and illustrated in the embodiments. Any variations or modifications may be made to the embodiments of the present invention without departing from the principles described.
