Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of health care footwear technology, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine health care massage shoe. Background Technology

[0002] Foot reflexology is a natural therapy based on the fact that each of the body's internal organs has a corresponding reflex zone on the foot. Massaging these reflex zones can regulate the functions of these organs, thus preventing and treating diseases. In recent years, with the increasing awareness of health maintenance, this therapy has become increasingly popular.

[0003] Currently, various Chinese herbal health shoes combining traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy and shoe design have appeared on the market. These shoes incorporate TCM herbs, allowing the effective components of the herbs to penetrate the feet for therapeutic and health-promoting purposes. TCM health shoes typically use a variety of herbs, such as mugwort, cinnamon twigs, and chuanxiong, which have effects such as promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, relieving dampness and pain, and relaxing muscles and tendons. For example, a Chinese patent with application number 2017217992893 discloses a TCM health massage shoe. It features massage beads with TCM granules embedded in them on the sole. These granules provide health benefits to the user during the massage process. However, this design has some drawbacks, hindering its widespread adoption. Specifically, the massage beads are always protruding, causing pain when the foot is stepped on, especially during walking or running. Therefore, it is not suitable for everyday wear and is difficult to promote. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Preferably, the method for preparing the drug block includes the following steps:

[0010] S1: Weigh out the predetermined weight of Photinia serratifolia, mulberry twigs, Saposhnikovia divaricata, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Ligusticum chuanxiong, saffron, Isatis indigotica, Cimicifuga foetida, Sophora tonkinensis, Dioscorea opposita, Codonopsis pilosula, and Polygonum multiflorum. Crush them and add them to the container. Add the predetermined amount of water and heat slowly to 60-70℃. Maintain this temperature for 1-3 hours.

[0011] S2: Filter the liquid obtained in step S1 through a 20-mesh sieve, then weigh the predetermined weight of starch, add it to the tank, and stir for 30-1 hour until fully mixed.

[0012] S3: Concentrate the mixture obtained in step S2 to make a paste;

[0013] S4: Add the paste-like mixture prepared in step S3 into the mold and press it into a spherical shape;

[0014] S5: The spherical particles obtained in step S4 are dried and dehydrated to produce the finished drug block.

[0015] Preferably, the upper surface of the sole is provided with an insole, which is made of elastic fabric.

[0016] Preferably, the insole has a Velcro loop side at its edge, and the sole has a Velcro hook side at the opposite position.

[0017] Preferably, the foot-operated air pump includes an inflatable airbag, a spring, an inlet valve, and an outlet valve. The upper side of the inflatable airbag is connected to the mounting groove, and the lower side is connected to the L-shaped plate. A spring is installed inside the inflatable airbag to support it.

[0019] Preferably, the vent valve adopts a valve core structure.

[0020] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] This invention involves stepping on the heel, causing a foot-operated air pump to compress air into a gas distribution chamber, which then fills an elastic air bladder. The expansion of the elastic air bladder lifts a herbal massage ball, allowing the foot to rest on it for health benefits and foot massage. After the massage, the air in the gas distribution chamber is released through a vent valve, causing the elastic air bladder to return to its original position and the herbal massage ball to fall into a circular groove. Rotating the L-shaped plate causes a locking block to engage in the slot, retracting the foot-operated air pump into the mounting slot. The L-shaped plate is now flush with the bottom surface of the shoe sole, allowing for normal walking and making it suitable for everyday wear.

[0022] Meanwhile, this invention also develops medicinal substances that are beneficial to the human body through the rational combination of traditional Chinese medicine ingredients. These substances have the effects of dispelling wind and dampness, clearing heat and detoxifying, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, clearing meridians and collaterals, strengthening the spleen and stomach, replenishing qi, and improving the human blood circulation system.

[0023] In summary, the expansion of the elastic air bladder can lift the herbal massage ball, achieving the effects of health care and foot massage.

[0024] After the massage is complete, the herbal massage ball can be retracted into the circular groove, making it suitable for daily wear and walking, thus eliminating the problem of difficulty in promotion. Attached Figure Description
