The adhesive member 9 is stored in the storage cavity 351, which is convenient for customers to take, and is placed separately from the patch 1 and the controller 5, which will not affect the storage and use of the patch 1 and the controller 5. The adhesive member 9 is mainly made of skin-friendly materials. The adhesive member 9 can be a transparent sticker, a semi-transparent sticker, or a sticker with a light-transmitting hole, etc. The materials used may include but are not limited to silicone polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and silicone acrylate, acrylate, hydrocolloid, cyanoacrylate, etc.

[0021] Of course, in another embodiment, the adhesive member 9 need not be provided separately, and a material that can be used to adhere to the skin may be directly provided on the patch 1, which is not limited here.

[0022] The power supply assembly 7 includes a first electrode 71 electrically connected to the controller 5, a PCB board 73 electrically connected to the first electrode 71, and a battery 75 electrically connected to the PCB board 73. The first electrode 71 is mounted on the mounting seat 33.

[0024] The controller 5 is provided with a first magnetic member (not shown); the power supply assembly 7 includes a second magnetic member 79 for magnetically cooperating with the first magnetic member and a sensing member (not shown) for sensing the controller 5, and the second magnetic member 79 and the sensing member are installed on the mounting seat 33; the outer periphery of the controller 5 is provided with a limiting protrusion 53, and the mounting seat 33 is provided with a positioning groove 3311 for cooperating with the limiting protrusion 53 to position the controller 5. The first magnetic member cooperates with the second magnetic member 79 to adsorb the controller 5 on the mounting seat 33, and the limiting protrusion 53 cooperates with the positioning groove 3311 to increase the stability of the installation of the controller 5, so that the user will not be in the process of carrying, and the controller 5 remains stable, and will not shake or even fall. In addition, the patch 1 can also be provided with a third magnetic member (not shown) for magnetically cooperating with the first magnetic member, so as to increase the stability of the patch 1 during installation and storage.

[0025] The steps for using the physiotherapy device 100 are as follows:

[0026] The controller 5 and the patch 1 are arranged in the containing box 3 and connected to the power supply assembly 7 for charging and standby;

[0027] Open the cover 31 and the inner cover 35, and take out the patch 1 and the adhesive member 9;

[0028] The mirror 353 provided in the inner cover 35 is used to provide a viewing angle, and the patch 1 is attached to the skin of the user requiring physical therapy through the adhesive member 9;

[0029] The controller 5 is taken out, and the controller 5 is electrically connected to the stimulation element 11, receives the control signal and controls the working state of the stimulation element 11 in the patch 1, and starts to perform physical therapy on the skin;

[0030] After the treatment is completed, the controller 5 is placed in the first cavity 331, and the device is stabilized according to the position of the limiting protrusion 53 and the positioning groove 3311;

[0031] Place the patch 1 into the second cavity 333 , close the inner cover 35 , place the adhesive member 9 into the storage cavity 351 , and close the cover body 31 .

[0032] Please continue reading Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a second embodiment of the physiotherapeutic device 100. In this embodiment, the configuration of the physiotherapeutic device 100 is basically the same as that of the first embodiment, except that two controllers 5, two patches 1 and two adhesive members 9 are provided in the second embodiment. The two controllers 5 are arranged in the mounting seat 33 at intervals, and correspondingly, the first cavity 331 and the second cavity 333 are arranged relative to the controller 5 and the patch 1, respectively. Other structures are also arranged correspondingly according to the number of controllers 5 and patches 1, such as the number of first electrodes 71 in the power supply assembly 7 can be increased accordingly to charge the controller 5.

[0033] The physiotherapy device 100 is provided with two controllers 5 and two patches 1, which increases the user's usage options. The user can choose to take out a controller 5 and use it with a patch 1 separately, and store the other in the storage box 3 for charging and standby, so that the physiotherapy can be carried out uninterruptedly; or the two controllers 5 can be taken out and used with two patches 1 at the same time. For example, when treating the skin around the eyes, both sides can be treated at the same time, which can ensure that the time and efficiency of the skin treatment on both sides are consistent, so as to obtain the same effect.

[0034] In order to meet the use of the controller 5, the number of the second cavities 333 is changed accordingly, and the two second cavities are closely arranged in the mounting seat 33. The corresponding power supply component 7 can increase the volume capacity and is arranged between the bottom shell 37 and the mounting seat 33. At the same time, it is electrically connected to the two controllers 5 through the first electrode 71. The first cavity 331 is arranged in a symmetrical structure corresponding to the size of the patch 1. The first cavity 331 and the second cavity 333 are arranged in a staggered manner, which greatly utilizes the space of the storage box. Even if two controllers 5 and two patches 1 are arranged at the same time, the overall structure is simple and compact.

[0035] Of course, in the second embodiment, an inner cover 35 may also be provided, and the inner cover 35 is connected to the cover body 31 and the bottom shell 37 by hinges, so that the inner cover 35 is configured to pivot between an open position and a closed position. A storage cavity 351 for storing the adhesive member 9 is formed between the inner cover 35 and the cover body 31, and the storage cavity 351 is arranged in a symmetrical structure corresponding to the size of the adhesive member 9.

[0036] It should be noted here that, in other embodiments, the controller 5, patch 1, adhesive 9 and mounting seat 33 can be designed according to specific needs, and multiple controllers 5 and multiple patches 1 can be stored at the same time, and the first cavity 331 and the second cavity 333 are set accordingly. Other structures can also be processed with reference to Example 2, and will not be repeated here.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the physiotherapy device 100 provided in the present application places the patch 1 and the controller 5 in a storage box 3, which is convenient for users to carry around; the controller 5 cooperates with the stimulation element 11 to achieve physiotherapy for the skin; and a power supply component 7 is provided in the storage box 3, which can charge the controller 5 and extend the working time of the controller 5, so that the user can use it for a long time when carrying it out.

[0038] The above is only an implementation method of the present application. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present application, but these improvements are within the scope of protection of the present application.
